When the sun and the moon
work together, ocean tides are
higher than usual. This hap
pens at the time of a new moon,
when the moon and the sun are
on the same side of the earth.
When there is a full moon, we
have another time of extra high
tides.
Those tides go under the name
of spring tides" but the name is
hardly a good one. Such tides
take place during summer. au-
tumn and winter. as we'll as in
the spring. The only excuse for
the name is that we may say
the waters "spring up" during
high tide.
Since the full moon is on the
opposite side Of the earth from
the sun, we might expect the two
to work against each other. Ac-
tually they work as separate
units. The moon pulls the At
lantic toward it more strongly
at the same time it "letS go" of
some of its pull on the western
side of the Pacific Ocean. At
the same time, the sun pulls the
western Pacific a little more
strongly, and lets go" a little
| of the Atlantic.
/ The time when the sun and
moon actually work against each
other comes when we see a moon
which is. week old or three
weeks old. At such times the
sun and moon pull at right
angles to each other. and the
result is a general lowering of
the tides. The small tides which
take place then are known as
"neap" tides.

tide tables. for a given point,
year after year. There are
changes, however, in distances
of the sun and moon. and these
changes alter the tides.
The average distance from the
earth to the sun is SO million
miles, but the distance gets to
be as much as one and a half
million miles more than that.
and at another time is one and
a half million miles less.
In much the same way, the
distance of the moon from the

Many players still favor the
old honor trick method of valu-
ing their hands. Some Of our
best players like the Four Aces
count-3-2-1-12 for ace-king-
queen-jack. But the current
trend is toward the old Milton
Work count of 4-3-2-1.
Two and a half honor tricks:
BIZ or 9. Four Aces count; or 13
points Work count all come about
the same for a minimum opening
bid of one in a suit.
Mr.. Dale'S opening bid of one
spade in today's deal represents
a minimum in any system. Mrs.
Keen made waiting bid of two
diamonds to see how strong Mr..
Dale's rebid would be. When
he made a minimum rebid OF
two spades, she contented her
self with a jump to game on her
very fine hand.
Mr.. Dale could not afford to
play carelessly in spite of the fine
dummy laid down by his partner.
Miss Brash led the ace of hearts
and continued with the eight
when her partner flashed the
nine spot. Mr.. Champion won
the second trick with the jack of
hearts when dummy played low,
and returned the king.
If Mr.. Dale had ruffed this
trick either high or low, he would
have lost his contract, If he
had ruffed low, Miss Brash would
have overuffed. Ruffing high
would be no better because that
would make Miss Brash's ten Of
spades sure winner later in the
hand.
Of course Mr.. Dale always had
a certain diamond loser. Sem
sibly enough, he didn't ruff the
third heart lead at all. He mere
ly discarded the trey II dia-
mondS. Now nothing could
beat him. Another heart could
be ruffed in dummy and any
other lead could be won, trumps
extracted and the hand spread
for 10 tricks.

Today, however. higher taxes and the more

Many of our public Libraries are now half

And in too many cases they are dreary, un-
