MARX BROTHERS FEATURED STARS
 CAPITOL THEATRE

Something entirely new in the history of film making was devised by the Marx Brothers (Groucho, Chico and Harpo) when they made "A Night at the Opera" the comedy which has gone down in Hollywood history as one of the funniest mo- tion pictures ever conceived. It is now being brought back to the Capi- tol Theatre by popular demand and showing at the Capitol Theatre starting Sunday.
 In "A Night at the Opera, v Groucho, Chico and Harpo are seen as managers for pair of songbirds whose operatic career they are try ing to further. Before they are fin ished with their innocent blunders. insane impulses and madcap antics the careers of the respective artists are practically ruined, but it all turns out well in the end after a terrific scene in which the Marx Brothers save an audience from panic at theatre.
 Kitty Carlisle and Als.-2 Jones are the two songbirds in t,,-s c-.cture.

Natures Children

Few realize how thrifty and provi-
dent some of our winter plants are.
Take the hepatica, our first spring
flower. In autumn it wraps its
buds in woolly bonnets, it's stems in
woolen snuggies and leaves with
hair coverletS. Also in autumn, the
leaves take in all the sunshine they
can after the trees above them are
bare, for the many tiny fine roots
below.
|. When the first spring days arrive,
the stems and the bracts of the
flower plainly show their winter
woollies. This down acts as a
blanket to prevent too rapid trans
piration which is a cooling process
and in this way the blanket keeps
the young flower warmer.
AS the stems grow stronger and
lift up, the buds bend their heads.
In this position they are protected
from spring winds and rains.
Hepatica flowers are pink, white

though you may find IL, have the
three outer ones known as sepals
and exactly like the three inner
ones, the petals arranged 50 that
three are on the outside and three
on the inside in the half opened
flower. There are three green
bracts which inclose the flower like
tight-dtting bonnet.
During dark days and cool nights
the blossoms close up tight. But
the older flowers remain wide
awake. The reason is they have no
precious pollen to protect from
wind, snow or rain, the bees having
carted it away.
Look into the face of a freshly
opened flower and usually you can
count many stamens with greenish
white anthers. Standing erect
around them are the pistils at the
center Of the flower. Each pistil

Complaints about losses caused
by bad distribution should fall
upon unsympathetic ears If those
losses could easily have been avoided
When a hand appears on the sur
face to be ironclad, that is the time
to look around for possible accidents
and to guard against their occur
renee. That is the creed of the
safety play.
The bidding of .todays hand was
reasonable enough. A comment is
perhaps in order on South's jump
overcall of three diamonds. OBJ
viously it was intended as a
strength-showing bid. 1t is not,
however, forcing. If partner has
nothing, he is permitted to pass
but he is asked to make every effort
to dig up a bid. Some players
do not use the jump overcall to
show strength, but employ it for
pre-emptive purposes. This is en-
cASAy q Po1 eAAC1o111P n1dteSA dll0 ~
is well for players to have an un-
derstanding upon this point. Those
who use the jump overcall merely
as a nuisance bid are obliged to
double on all good hands regard
less of the fact that the strength is
concentrated principally in one
suit.
The nine of spades was opened
and declarer took it with the ace.
He forthwith led a trump, which
East took with the ace and a spade
return was ruffed by West. The
ace of clubs was the setting trick.
This was negligence of the first
order. Declarer didn't play East
for. six-card spade suit because it
had never been rebid. He seems
to have lost sight of the fact that
East never really had a chance to
rebid, because when it came his
