Thousands OF weather stations
now dot the earth. They are most
common in North America and
Europe. but Asia and Africa have
many of them, also Australia and
South America. Here and there we
find station in a desert or on the
top of a mountain.
It is the duty of men in weather
stations to keep records of rainfall,
winds. temperatures, air pressures
and so on. It is common for them
to send out reports by telephone,
telegraph or radio, and the out
side world learns about conditions
in many places.
To measure rainfall, the weather
stations use rain gauges. A crude
gauge is a pail or barrel in which
rain is caught. The depth of water
is measured after each rain. That
method works in a rough way, but

the amount Of rainfall during each
hour, quarter hour, or even minute
of the day.
Weather men also keep records
of thunderStorms. Several years
ago, a study of the collected rec
ords indicated that more than
1000 thunderStorms take place on
an average day.
At many spots, q person hears
thunder less than a dozen times
a year, but the thunder records
cover the earth in general. All may
be quiet in our home town, but
thunder is going on elsewhere. It
may boom 20 miles away.
During January and February,
in any cold part Of the earth, we
seldom hear thunder, but plenty of
thunderstorms take place in the
Torrid Zone during those months.
Near the southeastern end of Asia
is an island which has been nick
named laundering Java" This
thickly-settled place has an aver
age of 18 thunderstorms a month.
AS you read these words, thunder
may be sounding in Java. In any
case, you may feel sure that hun
dreds of thunderstorms are taking
place in various parts of the earth.

The bidding:
South West North East
+ heart Pass 2 di'mds Pass
hearts Pass hearts All pass
V Today's deal is an ordinary one.
No fancy play is required to make
four hearts on the North-South
cards. Yet Mr.. Abel managed to
muff it.
Mr.. Dale opened with the queen
OF spades, which was won in the
closed hand with the ace. How
would you play from this point?
1t looks easy, doesn't it? You
have to lose to the aces Of clubs,
diamonds and hearts. Therefore,
you can't afford to lose a spade
trick. But it seems that you can
get rid of one of dummys spades
on the third club from your hand. |
Or you can throw one of your
spades on dummy's diamond suit.
1t looked fairly easy to Mr.. Abel,
too. He started to lay down a |
high trump and caught himself just
in time. If the enemy got the lead
here with the ace of trumps they
would knock out the king of spades,
setting up winner for themselves
in that suit while they still held
control of the minors.
Taking out trumps would have to
be deferred, then. So Mr.. Abel
led the ten of clubs-and Mr..
Champion wisely laid of. Mr.. Abel
was stymied again.
No use to lead another club, be-
cause after the third club was set
up, the closed hand could not be
entered without surrendering the
lead again. There was no question,
of course, that when Mr.. Champion
won with the ace of clubs he would
return a spade.
Desperate now, Mr.. Abel led a
diamond and hnessed dummyS ten.
Mr.. Champion took the ace and
returned spade, which dummy's
king won. Now Mr.. Abel discarded
his last spade on the third round
of diamonds-but Mr.. Dale ruffed
and led back a club to his part
ner's ace
Thus the defenders took two
trump tricks, a club and a dia-
mond. Tough luck. The diamonds
might have broken 3-3. Or the
defenders might have slipped up
and won the first club lead. But
Mr.. Abel had no excuses.
He should have thought before |
he played from dummy to the very
first trick. That trick should have
been won with the king of spades,
leaving the ace Of spades as a !
quick entry to the closed hand,
to be used after the clubs were
set up.

Fabulous Duffy
Comes To Town
By lAxoN

Everyone knows the fabulous
and unusual Duffy's Tavern IN Mi
ami, so it is with great delight that
his many friends welcome the one
and only Duffy to town.
Hours could be spent, and many
columns toe. describing the Miami
Duffy's with it's,unusual hangings
and curious which have been
brought to him from all over the
world; and his vast collection of
antiques Of our own early Ameri-
can. However it can be safely left
to his unofficial press agents, his
customers and friends TO speak for
him.
In four days Duffy has trans
formed the ancient and time honor
ed Dclimonico Restaurant into the
rustic counterpart OF the ether Ia
vcrn. II was with amazemcnt that
this reporter walked into Duffy's
Delilonic0 Tavern on Duval st.
There stood huge Rustic Bar of
split pine, oval and a full ninety
feet in circumference. Gone were
the tropical lowered walls and
murals, and in their place more
split pine, hung with the unusual
curios. A man was busily weaving
ropes to form window screens and
false ceilings, when this reporter
was there. The carpenters busily
saving away had that slightly daz-
cd look of people who see too much
happen too soon. It's Unbelievable
In addition to the beautiful rus
tic u Bar, Duffy will serve his Ii
quors, wines and beer at very rea-
sonable prices. He has succeeded
in obtaining the services of chef
Bill, also of Miami, who will in
turn adhere to his own Dolicv of
serving the finest type Of American
Food, served to you as mother us
cd TO do. at prices you can afford.
Although the Tavern and Res

pletcd for about ancsher week, Duff
fly and chef Bin began serving you
on Tuesday. April Ist. from s am.
to 2 am. no foolingi We suggest
you stop in and saw hello at Key

Taft was leading Gov. Earl Warren
of California by So, 900 votes. Har-

Warren and Stassen, together,
racked up bigger total than
Taft's. The senator. at the latest
count, was holding 40.6 per cent of
all the Republican votes cast.
But Taft's 24-6 victory in dele
gates was possibly more important
since Wisconsin delegates to the

TO support the winner of the. pri-
mary. Gov. Warren got the other
