: But today was not the time
for it. Against the final con-
tract of three no-trump Mrs.
Keen led her fourth best spade,
the trey. Mr.. Muzzy, assuming
what he considered to be a pro-
fessional look, promptly played
the five from the board.
Mr.. Dale won with the queen
and returned the suit, knocking
out dummy's ace. Since there
was no way to make nine tricks
without establishing the dia-
mondS. it was necessary to let
Mrs. Keen in with the ace Of
that suit and she ran off three
quick spade tricks to put the
contract down one.
Your right play is the ace of
spades on the first trick, Muzzy,"
said Mr.. Champion.
But what about the hold
up?" Mr.. Muzzy asked. my
play would have won if Dale had
held the ace of diamonds"
THE ace Of spades at trick
one will win no matter who has
the ace of diamonds" replied
Champion.
Mr.. Muzzy didn't get it. IF I
win the first trick" he said,
whats to prevent them from
winning four spades and the ace
of diamonds?"
Reason it out" snapped Mr..
Champion. If the outstanding
spades are divided 4-3, you have
nothing to fear in any case.
They can't win more than three
spade tricks against you. But
If Mrs. Keen had five spades,
then Dale has only two. And at
least one of Dale's spades must
be an honor. because if Mrs.
Keen had started with a suit
headed by king, queen, jack, she
would have led the king-not the
trey.
"On that reasoning" Mr..
Champion continued, "the play
of the ace of spades at trick one
will block the suit. At trick two
you lead diamond and Mrs.
Keen wins with the ace. Now if
she lays down the king of spades
1t will drop Dale's queen and
your ten will become a second
stopper in the suit. If she leads
a low spade, Dale will win with
the queen but will have no way
to re-enter the partners hand"

Famous Fables
By E. E. Edqor

INSURANCE: Fountain
pen manufacturer Lewis E.
Waterman began his busi-
ness career as an insurance
agent. After weeks of per-
severance, he once persuaded
a wealthy merchant to take
out a large policy.
Waterman arrived at the
mans place of business with
the contract ready for sig
nature. The young agent
took an old-fashioned foun-
tain pen and extended it to
his client. AS the latter
bent over to sign, the pen
began to leak. In a mo-
ment the ink had spread
over half of the contract.
Waterman hastened back
to his Office for another con-
tract. When he returned it
was too late. During his
absence. the merchant had
signed with a rival agent.
Waterman was so disguSted
that he gave up the insur-
ance business then and
there and devoted himself
to making a more reliable
fountain pen.

The local Employ-the- Handi-
capped Committee, led by H.
Daniel Lang, executive secretary
of the Greater Miami Urban
League and Charles l.. Williams,
principal of Booker T. Washing
ton High School, join in the OBJ
servance of National Employ-the-
Handicapped Week.
The committee has carefully
laid plans to impress the public
that it's good business to serve
the handicapped.
Yes, it is good business to serve
the physically handicapped. Serv-
ing this group produces chain
reaction. The reaction may start
IN a community committee or a
government or private agency; in
manufacturing plant or bust
ness office; at the civic club or in
the union meeting hall. Regard
less of its origin, you can be sure
that before long serving the han
dicapped becomes a community
affair. What mechanics of hu-
man thought and action inspire
this phenomenon i asirdh pD
this phenomen it is hard to say.
Can it be the power Of suggestion,
a desire for prestige and recog-
milton, or It is just good practical
husiness7 IT may be all of these,
but it is likely to be a little more
the satisfaction that comes in
helping a fellow human being to
have an equal chance to earn a
living and enjoy the benefits and
sense Of freedom that 60 with 1t
blessings they might not achieve
without our help.
Like the sequence of events
started by "the farmer in the
dell" a qualified handicapped
worker was placed in a job; he
did well and the employer was
satisfied; the employer asked the
local office to look over the jobs
IN his plant to see where else he
could use such workers; a job
analyst found several such jobs;
Joe Smith, handicapped job ap-
plicant, had the qualifications,
was referred and hired; no other
qualified workers were available
SO the lo@a radio station was ask
ed 10 announce the job openings;
BIN Brown responded, was found
30 need an artificial limb; the re-
habiiitation service provided the
Iinab: the plant doctor, the safety
man. and the personnel office
found that Bill could do the job
with safety to himself and others;
he WINS hired. That's how 1t works,

A particularly good idea
for women who claim that per-

is a Liquid Skin Sachet. It
smoothS on the skin very easily,
