were known in Greece, but seldom
were used on farms. When a farmer
wanted to plow a field, he drove
a pair of oxen, or one or two
mules. The donkeys were employed
for less heavy work.
Goats and swine also were raised
on some Greek farms. There was
a demand for the milk Of the goats

farmers made much Of their income

There were several "city-States'
in ancient Greece. Each of these
was made up of a good-sized city
Cike Athens, Sparta or Corinth)
and the land around it. Usually
the land outside the city had sew
eral villages on it, and always there
were farms.
The farmers of long ago, like
those of today, were of high i'm

spades, Mr.. Abel correctly inter-
preted it to mean that he was being
requested to bid six if he did not
have two quick losers in the unbid
suit, diamonds.
The six-spade contract, while not
laydown, was a reasonable spot
and, in fact, u tricks should have
been made without difficulty. But,
unfortunately, Mr.. Abel'S play was
not as good as his bidding.
Mr.. Dale led his fourth best dia-
mond, the four spot, and Mr.. Abel
properly won with the ace. He was
disappointed to note that dummy'S
club suit was only three long, so
that sufficient discards from the
South hand could not be made.
The way Mr.. Abel analyzed the
situation, there was one sure dia-
mond loser and a possible heart
loser, depending on the position of
the queen of hearts.
On this analysis it could be said
that Mr.. Abel wanted to do all the
work himself. In other words, he
completely overlooked the possibility
of forcing his opponents to help
him out.
After winning the first trick, he
took two rounds of trumps. Then
he cashed the ace of hearts, followed
with a low heart and fineSsed the
jack. This lost to the queen and
the enemy promptly caShed a dia-
mond for the setting trick.
Proper play, after picking up the
outstanding trumps, was to cash
dumrny's clubs, discarding a dia-
mond from the closed hand, then
lead a diamond. If Mrs. Keen won
she would have to lead a heart into
dummy's king-jack or return a club
or diamond which would let Mr..
Abel ruff in his hand while dis
carding a heart from the board.
If Mr.. Dale won the diamond
trick. he, too, would have to return
heart as the only hope. And
again Mr.. Abel would have IL
tricks in the bag.

There were beehives on many

the life of honeybees and learned

ton, last night told the Glover

Teachers Salary Bill
for Showdown in
Maryland Tomorrow
BY the Associated Press

| ANNAPOLIS. Feb. 12.-The
Senate is to make its final deci.
sion Wednesday afternoon or
whether the State should raise
minimum salaries for school
teachers by $500 a year.
Without floor comment, the
Senate last night voted, II to 10
to reconsider Gov. McKeldin's veto
of the teacher raise. Then il
made the actual vote whether to
override a, special order of busi-
ness Wednesday.
The Senate had voted Friday
16 to 13, to override, two short
Iof the necessary majority. Two
Senators were absent last night
Dewitt s. Hide, Republican, o1
Montgomery, who voted to Sus-
tain the first time, and Byrd
Democrat, of Worcester, who was
in favor of overriding.
Pressure Is Strong.
Senators Hyde, John r.
Fletcher, Republican, of Prince
Georges and Adkins, Republican,
of Wicomico had been subjected
to strong pressure over the week
end to switch their previous
votes. They all had voted to
sustain.
While Mr.. Adkins stood fast in
voting against reconsideration and
Mr.. Hyde was absent, Mr.. Fletcher
went along with the majority in
forcing reconsideration.
He also had prepared a bill
ready for introduction which
would grant teachers the $500
pay raise next year. This could
revive the issue in case the Gov
ernor's veto is again upheld.
Senator Fletcher's proposal
would omit ] per cent increase in
corporation taxes, which he said is
his chief objection to the measure
vetoed by the Governor.
The House of Delegates pre-
lviously had voted to override the
veto.
The Senate upheld another
veto and overrode one.
Back Governor on Coal.
After a long dispute between
Senators Kimble, Republican. Of
Allegany and Frailey. Republican,
of Garrett. the Senate supported
the Governor in refusing to make
the State buy all its coal from
Maryland mines.
Mr.. Kimble won an easy victory
against another veto of bill
giving certain State retired en-
lployes supplementary payments
The Senate voted 23-4 in favor
of it despite the Governors OBJ
lection that the money was not
included in the budget.
Bills were prepared for both
Senate and House, meanwhile, tc
remove the 2 per cent State sales
tax from gas, electricity and
household fuel bills.
Sponsors said they preferred
that sort of tax relief to the Is
per cent income tax reduction
proposed by Gov. McKeldin and
the legislative Council. Either
method would save taxpayers ar
eStimated 50 million annually.
