In memory Of Rev. A. E. Brooks
who departed this life Thursday,
June II. The test that God had
given him was the one that he loved
the most and as long as his health
permitted him, he was found serv-

hearted soldier who never was
found Sinking, for in the Masters
call you would always find him
working. He became very i'll
short time ago and the Master
heard him groan and sent His
Death Angel Thursday morning to
bear his spirit home. Faithful to
the end, he answered to the call

gone where sorrow has no domin-

hold sway. He spent a long hard

COLOR - French painter
Henri Matisse lived in ex-
treme poverty during his
early years. 1t was a strug-
gle for him even to pay for
his materials. His lack OF,
money, however. was COM
pensated by his dedication
and his willingness to en-
dure discomfort for his art.
One winter. he was to
paint the portrait Of a worn-
an setting a table on which
there was a bowl of fruit.
Matisse knew he would not
be able to finish the canvas
in less than a week.
He spent his last centime
to buy the fruit, aware that
when it spoiled, he would
not be able to replace it. De-
termined to make the fruit
keep, he put out the fire and
opened all the windows.
The room was icy cold.
Matisse donned his overcoat
and gloves and painted as
quickly as his stiff hands
would permit. As the week
neared it's end. he was
pleased to observe that his
stratagem had worked. The
fruit had scarcely changed
color.
The same could not be
said of the model. however.

In today's deal Mr.. Champion
showed strength when he opened
the bidding, Mrs. Keen showed
medium strength when she re-
Sponded at the two level. Mr..
Champions reverse bid of two
spades showed great strength.
Mrs. Keen's three-heart bid was
a little ambiguous and on the
surface might be looked upon as
merely a choice of hearts over
spades.
However, Mr.. Champion real
ized that with a weakish hand
and fair heart support. she would
have simply bid two hearts on
the first round. But she had
chosen, instead, to make two

obviously, because he had any
idea of playing the final contract
in clubs. but because the knowl-
edge of the club fit might be
useful to Mrs. Keen in moving
toward the maximum spot in
hearts.
Now Mrs. Keen bid four dia-
monds-a bid in new suit and
a cue bid, showing first-round
diamond control. IF she had
wanted to suggest that she had
no interest whatsoever in going
beyond the four level, she could
have bid four hearts at this
point. n
Therefore the four diamond
bid showed interest in reaching
q slam and ,inferentially con-
firmed adequate heart support.
At first glance it appears that
the final contract depends On e
successful diamond f1nesse. Tt
was a finesse that developed the
twelfth trick. but it wasn't in
diamonds.
Mr.. Muzzy elected to open the
eight of spades. The ten went
on from dummy, Mr.. Abel played
the jack and the king won. Mr..
Champion took two rounds OF
trumps, ending on the board,
then led the nine of spades. Mr..
Abel covered with the queen and
the ace took the trick.
Mr.. Champion noted the play
Of the seven by Mr.. Muzzy. He
returned to dummy with the ace
of clubs and led the deuce OF
spades, flnessing his four when
Mr.. Abel followed suit with the
trey. When this held, as ex-
pected, he cashed the six OF
spades and discarded the queen
of diamonds from dummy. Now
he could ruff his second diamond
and claim the balance.

Today, even in some of our rural
areas, and most certainly in the
more populous areas where the
population is much more transi-
tory, the problem of proper identi-
fication of voters becomes more
acute. A larger percentage Of fami-
lies move from place to place and
the population in many areas has
increased SO that the average pre-
cinct of today has 450 voters. In
these instances, it is a rare COM
munity where the precinct officials
know every voter.
Registration isn't such a compli-
Gated matter as some may think.
In order to register, a person goes
to the office of the Board of Elec-
tions and fills in registration forms
which bear his signature. That per-
sons registration card is sent out
to the precinct in which he is en-
titled to vote on election day, max
ing it easy to identify the voter
by comparing the signature on the
registration card with his sigma
ture on the poll book.

Secretary of State Answers Voters
Question: why Do We Register"

The primary purpose Of regis
tration is to provide a method of
making certain that those who
vote in a precinct are actually
residents of that precinct and are
qualified to vote there.
There are arguments "pro" and
econ" on the subject of registra-
tion, of course, but in many places
where registration has been put
into effect there has been reduc-
tion in election Irregularities.
Modern-day living is vastly diff
ferent from the so-called "horse
and buggy" days and this has
affected voting. There was a time
when approximately 200 persons
lived in a precinct and the election
officials serving at the polling
place on election day would know
everyone who requested ballots.
