Mr. Oagen sat West and opened the bidding (after two passes) with two heart*. Dr. Fischer respondjed with two no trump, and Mr. Oagen Jump- ed to four hearts, fulfilling his c o n ^ t . i^i^nald of New York City. Mrs. MoUie Hall of Suffolk Avenue was taken to the E. L. I. Hospital last Friday morning with Pneumonia. Captain and Mrs. Alfred Sherman of Brooklyn with their son Alfred, Jr. and their daughter Marjorie were Tuesday visitors at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Daniel A. Young.

Maibach, Mrs. Wlarciski's father and Mr. and Mrs. John Bower and and also making a top on the board for the East and West side. Another Wert player who opened the bidding with two hearts, passed hLs partner's two no trump response, and East also passed, leaving the contract at two no trump. They made four no trump. It is interesting to note that if the north and South hands are inter- changed South will surely open a small diamond against a no trump contract by East. North and South will score five diamond tricks, and probably a spade trick, setting the hand. Opinion will probably be divided in regard to opening the West hand with a one bid or a two bid. For those playing the Culbertson sys- tem his rule governing the opening two bid is a wise one to heed: \Do not open with a two bid unless your hand contains more honor tricks than losers. The West hand has exactly four and one half honor tricks, and four and one half losers — so, what? Regardless of whether West opens with one or two hearts, the final con- tract should result in four hearts. The Bidding East South West Pass Pass 2 no trump Pass 4 hearts or Pass Pass 2 hearts Pass Pass Pass East's hand surely does not look promising, and if West opened with either a diamond or a club, a pass is the proper response . However the hand is helpful to either a spade or a heart opening, furnish- ing three-plus potential or playing tricks, in either hearts or spades. East should not pass West's one heart bid — but is not responsible for any further raises.

De- nounced\ is the subject of the Lesson- Sermon in all Churches of Christ, Sci- entist, on Sunday, November 26. The OoMen Text is: \When they shall say unta you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God?\ (Isaiah 8: 19). , Among the citations which comprise the Lesson-Sermon is the following from the Bible: \Thus saith the Lord, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heav- en; for the heathen are dismayed at them. . . . Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither also is It In them to do good. Forasmuch as there is none like unto thee, O Lord; thou art great, and thy name is great In might . . . But the Lord is the true Ood, he is the living Ood, and an everlasting king: . . .\ (Jeremiah 10: 2, 6. 6. 10 to :). The Lesson-Sermon also Includes the following selection from the textbook of Christian Science. \Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures,\ by Mary Baker E ^ : \The varied doc- trines and theories which presuppose life and intelligence to exist In matter are so many ancient and modern my- th(riogles. M^tery, miracle, sin, and death will disappear when it becomes fairly understood that the divine Mind controls man and man has no Mind but Ood\ (p. 319).

She f e a r e d that her lack of courage would cause her to fail miserably in a critical moment. You see, one of her great-granduncles had been a deserter in the Civil war, and though the Enllys had done such noble deeds that that dishonor had been lived down and almost forgotten, Druella herself never quite forgot the wretched story. Now, everyone agreed that Druel- la was a lovely girl, and most of all John Hallen. That was what worried Druella—having John, a re- turned war hero, think her so won- derful when she believed herself to be a silly coward. \You don't know the real me,\ she had parried when he had urged her to marry him. But that had made him smile fondly at her and urge her the more. She was thinking of all these things now as she en- tered the old farmhouse which was her home. \Here she is to speak for herself, Mrs. Dana,\ her mother said. \Well it's a lot to ask you, Druel- la,\ began Mrs. Dana, a neighbor, \but you see, my husband's father is very ill and we must go at once if we want to see him. Of course. It's impossible to take the children, and you're the only one I'd feel safe to leave them with—\ begged the woman. It was not until the children had quieted down for the night that she noticed how still the house was, how ghastly the shadows seemed, and how comforting the lighta. She did little needless tasks to occupy her mind, then she slipped upstairs to look at the children. Ann wanted her doll and James wanted a drink, and the baby wailed to be taken up. Irresistibly drawn to the cuddle- some babe, she gathered him up in her arms and, humming softly, went down the stairs. As she reached the bottom step and turned to go into the living room, she became aware of a pres- ence, a feeling that she was not alone. Her heart pounded violent- ly, f e a r enveloped her. And then she saw seated at ^ tabj« a strange flgiire. ThS&gh the object wore the ICS of a man, it did not appear lose, for the door was already quiv- ering against the rage of the mad- man, and she rushed to the tele- phone to summon help. It was not until the wanderer had been escorted back to the hospital and John had come that Druella found time to give way to t e a r s . \1 was so afraid at first. Why, it was only when I forgot myself that I seemed to get the courage to go on,\ she explained, half to herself. \Brave little one.\ murmured John fondly. \ T h a t ' s all the courage is—forgetting one's self.\ The baby in DruelliTs arms clung tightly to her finger—a symbol of all the trusts that might come to her, but Druella only smiled and opened her eyes very wide, as if she wanted to meet life f a c e to face. She was no longer afraid of anything!

Ita head and fSee wei covered with a growth of unkempt hair and ita eyes moved wildly about. Druella vfwnted to iKirtillli but her throat was parched with fright. \ C o m e i n , girl,\ the thing c o m - m a nd e d . She wanted to run, to drop the baby, her thought but for herself, but she felt a tiny hand tighten ita grasp on her finger, and suddenly she, herself, seemed no longer im- portant. \What can I do for you?\ she asked in a voice remarkably natural. \Ye can get me supper and clothes,\ barked the stranger. \Why of course,\ she conceded, \but let me first put the baby to bed.\ \No bellowed the caller, with evident suspicion. \Put the brat on the sofa there.\ Without protesting further, she did as he commanded, then hurried to the pantry. He dogged her steps, and with his eyes followed her every movement until at last she placed the food before him. She quivered to watch him eat, and trembled every time he reached for the blunt knife she had given him. Suddenly he arose, and going over to the sofa, bent over the baby and put his gnarled hands about its tiny throat. Druella rushed to him. She would have fought, though against his brute strength it would have been a futile battle. It was brain, not brawn, that must win, she realized. \Don't waken the baby,\ was all she said. \Let's go upstairs for clothes for you.\ It seemed black hours before he released his hold on the infant, who only smiled in his sleep. Then the girl and her visitor went up the stairs. \If you'll step into that closet and pick out what you want,\ invited the girl. Her tone, so natural, took the man off his guard, so that in his hasty eagerness, the cunning one forgot his suspicions. Druella's mind had planned every movement, and with a bang the closet door closed, and she turned the key in the lock. There was not a moment to Those 400 vigilant policemen who lupervlse the flow of some 18,000,000 motor vehicles with 30,000,000 passen gers annually through Holland Tunnel, under the Hudson River at New York City, are called upon to aid many of the motorists In emergencies. Someone on his way via the tunnsi has neglected to take his suit case with him. In an- other case Illness at home neccessl- tates his return. Will the police stop him and deliver the message before It la too late? These calls for aid generally come In by telephone, and through the 180 tele- phones serving the world's busiest ve- hicular tubes, many pncsling problems of the travelers are speedily solved. Typical is the case of a pair of newly weds who bad Just left the Bronx, headed for a honeymoon tour In the South. In bis haste the bridegroom had left his purse at home. His mother dis- covered the predicament, and promptly telephoned the tunnel. The call was switched to the police, and In a few minutes the two persons In a black sedan with Bronx number were halted at the entrance to the tunnel and told to wait until a taxi arrived with the purse. Thus the happy honeymoon con tinued with only a slight interruption A motorist on his way to New York whose wife had stopped off on the New Jersey side of the tunnel, had neglected to obtain from her a bunch of keys which he needed. She informed one ot the policemen of the situation. He tele phoned the police station-d at the other end ot the tunnel in time for them to halt the motorist Meanwhile anothet motorist headed towards the city obllg Ingly deliygred ^ keys to the grate tran By Van Raalte Enchantingly sheer as fairy wings.
