In the heart Of Greece is an in
let Of the sea known as the Gulf of
Corinth. Near the northern shore
Of this gulf was the ancient Oracle
of Delphi, also called the Relphic
Oracle.
Delphi was a village, and in it
was temple. There was q spring
at the spot from which strange va
|porS rose.
A certain priestess, who was
known as the Pythia, used to give
answers to those who came to Del
phi. For a long period there was
only one Pythia. Usually she was
a maiden who was chosen from a
peasant family. Later there were
two Pythias, and they took turns
in answering questions. A change
also came about in the age Of the
priestesses who were chosen. In
stead of being girls or young women,

they were women more than so
years of age.
The Pythia sat on a three-legged
stool, with statue of Apollo close
by. While she was seated near the
spring with strange vapors, the
Pythia seemed to go into a kind of
sleep or trance. Then she would
utter words which were hard to un-
understand.
Next to the Pythia stood the
Prophet, man Of noble blood. He
listened to the babbling words OF
the Pythia, then explained the
meaning.
Old records seem to prove that
the Oracle Of Delphi gave good
answers to many questions, and
often supplied good advice. There
were times. however. when the

answers could be understood in at
least two ways. King Croesus, for
example, was told that If he went
to war against the Persians, a great
empire would fall. He supposed that
this meant defeat for the Persian
Empire. AS it turned out, his own
empire was destroyed.
People believed that the god
Apollo sent them answers to the
questions they asked at Delphi. The
temple there was beautiful, and
hundreds of statues were placed in
side it and around it. Gifts, large
and small, were made to those in
charge of the oracle.
When a Persian army invaded
Greece, companies of soldiers
marched toward Delphi in the hope
of obtaining plunder. These Per-
slams were climbing a steep path
way when thunder roared and ar
overhanging cliff fell. Some of the
soldiers died in the landslide which
followed, and the rest fled. That
event made it seem as though
Apollo defended the place. In late1
centuries, however, Romans anc
other conquerors managed to gel
there and take away most Of the
wealth.

The opening lead from Mr.. Abel
was the deuce of hearts. The ten
was played from the board and
Mrs. Keen won with the ace. After
considering her hand and dummy
and the bidding, Mrs. Keen came
up with nice defensive try which
should not have worked-but did.
She returned a small diamond,
hoping her partner had no more
than two diamonds and a quick
trump winner. If this were the
case Mr.. Abel might ruff a third
lead of diamonds.
Mr.. Muzzy played low and
dummy's ten won. There was a.
lull in the play after this trick and
finally Mr.. Muzzy said, Come on,
Abel, lead something. You can't
take all night
Mr.. Abel pointed out that dummy
had won the trick and the next
move was up to Mr.. MuZzy. 1t was
now clear that Mrs. Keen held the /
ace of diamonds and even Mr.. /
Muzzy caught on to the plan she
had in mind. !,
1t now appeared necessary to him
to take out as many trumps as !.
he could and as fast as possible. |,
Feverishly. he banged down the
ace and another spade. But Mr.
Abel won the second round with
the king, led a diamond to Mrs.
KeenS ace and ruffed the diamond
return. Down one.
Mr.. Champion roared with rage |.
"You say you know so much about
flnessing. Why didn't you finesse on
this hand? he growled.
The king of spades was wrong"
Mr.. Muzzy replied. What good
would it do to finesse?" |.
Who said anything about finess-
ing spades?" continued Mr.. Cham
pion. Just bang down the ace of
sspades like you did and then take
the marked heart finesse against
the queen. On the king Of hearts,
discard a diamond. Then lead your
second spade. Later, when the third 4
diamond comes through, ruff it 1
high. Even when you make the
right play, you make it at the
wrong time" ID

New York, (GlobaD.-The real
doctors work is a labor of love,
according to DR.. Alma M. Haskins,
podiatrist of 16 st. Nicholas Place,
New York City.
"It is my observation" said DR..
Haskins, "that one cannot be a
doctor unless he loves human be-
ings." ~.
A graduate of Long Island Uni
versity, and the second Negro wom-.
an to enter the Podiatric field in
New York City, the energetic, un-
assuming woman said that she en-
Joys her practice more than she
ever dreamed she would, and large
ly because of it's humanitarian as
poets.
Some of my most satisfying and
fappiest moments come when 1
can alleviate pain," she continued
"Podiatry is a specialized branch
of medicine and is concerned with
the care of the feet. No one per-
son can care for the entire body.
Proper foot care is paramount to
bouyant, zestful living, according to
the podiatrist, who went on to say
that "as the feet are subject to
all of the ills of the human body,
they m Ut be recognized as definite
parts of the anatomy" She said
that death can result from ills of
the feet as quickly as of any other
part of the body.
In heartening note, DR.. HaSkinS
pointed out that the modern moth
er shows a marked interest and in
telligence in the matter of the
care of her child's feet.
A case in point, she said, was
that of a young mother who very
recently had her young baby's feet
tested because she thought he was
suffering from flat feet. The doc
tor said that although the woman's
deductions were false, her assump-
tons demonstrated great.sensitivity
to the relationship between good
feet and general health.

Court Of Public
Opinion Is A
Powerful Ally
BY Laureen White

New York, (GlobaD The lobby
of New York's Grand Central Sta
ton is one of the busiest spots on
earth. Tens of thousands of people
pass through there every day. In
one of the most conspicuous parts
of the lobby stands brand new,
bright red, box car. On the sides
of the boxcar, in bright yellow let
tiers, is information concerning in
equities in freight rates.
The public is invited to inspect
this bright new car. Inside the car
was more information concerning
freight rates. The railroad had sub
mitted more than $4,000 pages of
evidence to the proper authorities
showing the injustice of the pres
ent rates. The railroad also informs
us that a manufacturer recently
submitted only seventeen pages of
evidence asking for increases for
their merchandise and obtained it.
There is also sign stating that
the working capital (bank account)
of the railroad had decreased 3/4
in the last 7 years. Then we were
reminded that the government
would be waiting to take over if
the railroads became bankrupt. If
the government should take over,
we would be just that much closer
to complete government controls.
There were also signs reminding
us that railroads had played an
important part in making America
a great nation. No nation can be-
come great if it doesn't have ade-
quate transportation.
AS I inspected the car, read the
posters and signs and absorbed the
impact of the message, began to
think. The problems Of the earth
are not the sole possession of any
one group. However many are
prone to think that they have =
monopoly on problems.
Now, here is mighty railroad
that we have always considered
symbolic of wealth and power. They
are now unable to raise freight
rates. There exists an old law that
prevents them from raising freight
rates. The courts are slow in grant
ing them an increase. Therefore,
they take their case to the court OF
public opinion. If their case is just,
