The Hocsier Equestrian, wore a gown of the spring mode.

Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY W. E. M'KENNEY StrrtUrT American Bridge League THIS is another interesting hand submitted to me by R. H. Richards, Detroit, who recently won both the pair and team-of-four championships of that city. Years ago they used to tell an old story about a woman who was playing in a whist tournament. She led a card and her partner trumped it. She got into the lead again, led another card and again her partner trumped. The next time she got in, she laid down the ace of trump and said. “Try and trump that, will you?" There are a lot of persons who think the worst crime in bridge is to trump your partner's ace. Bridge is a strange game; the thing you are taught not to do on one hand is just the thing you should do on the next hand. • For example, to defeat today's hand. East has to trump his partner's ace. a u u IN response to his partner's diamond bid. East opened the king of diamonds and when it held, he continued with the three, which West won with the queen. The ace of diamonds came next AQ J 9 V KQ J 10 8 2 4J S 2 *lO 4 K $ 7 4 * 10 5.3 2 V Void w N c V 73 4AQ96 c 4 K 3 5 _ S , *95 4 2 *K7 i 3 A A 6 VA9 5 4 | 4 10 7 4 *AQ J $ Duplicate—All vtrt.

The contract would then be made, because West would be forced to make a losing lead. If he led a spade. North would make two spade tricks, and if he led a diamond, the declarer would rufl and discard the losing spade from dummy. And if a club were led, two clubs could be established for discards. However, if East were smart, insts.id of discarding a spade, he would trump his partners ace, so as :o be able to return a spade. And then the contract would be defeated one trick. iCouvrig.-it. 1935. NEA Service. Inc.)

For streetwear Maureen O'Sullivan introduces a duplicate of the bell-hop’s headgear. The hat is perched jauntily over her left eye and is fashioned of green, light woolen matching her frock. Trimming the hat is gold cord. Joan Bennett's spring bonnet is of fine white milan, its broad brim turning straight up off the face. A tailored bow of navy grosgrain accents the brim in front. I. Magnin, Inc., is the designer. Queenie Smith wears a heather mixture hat for sportswear, which has a green wool pompom as the topknot decoration. Robert Galer, Hollywood, designed the hat.

Manners and Morals BY JANE JORDAN—
Would vou like to get vour troubles off Tour chest? Put ?our situation in a letter to Jane Jordan, who will answer in this column. Dear Jane Jordan—We are a boy and girl of 17 and 19 planning to get married when we can afford it. Do you think a fellow and girl who are intimate with each other will ever get married as planned? Or do you think the boy usually gets tired of
the girl? I say the boy usually turns from the girl in the long run. But my boy friend says if the two really love each other the boy will stick to the girl and marry her. He is devoted to me and he does seem sincere. I’m afraid if we keep on this w r ay le won’t marry

me because he can have me any way. He says I am wrong. I don’t know what to do. I don't want to quit because I love him. Please help me. I want to do the right thing. J. H. Answer —It is too bad that you got into this awkward situation because your peace of mind is gone and I can not restore it for you. You are in the grip of an overwhelming social fear which is the payment exacted for going against any accepted code. In adolescence one is expected to acquire control over the emotional outflow; to tolerate stimulation and inhibit response. Part of the job of growing up consists of learning to postpone immediate gratification of an imperious desire in favor of a more distant but more permanently satisfactory goal. You and your boy friend have not proved equal to your first problem. This leads one to doubt that you will be able to shoulder the even greater realities of matrimony; it requires a high degree of the self-control in which you are admittedly deficient. Your boy friend is no doubt perfectly sincere. He may never experience the revulsion of feeling i against you which you expect. As he grows older he may come to j need a different type of woman , than the one who satisfied him at j 19. land you may have the same thing happen to you). That does not necessarily mean that he would scorn you. Some men remember their first sweetheart witn affection as long as they live. Others, to be sure, are overcome by their own Puritanism and feel only dislike for their initial experience in love. On the other hand, for all I know, you may develop along the ; same paths, marry each other and 1 live happily ever after. It wouldn't be the first time that a pair of young lovers remained faithful to each other, both in and out of matrimony, but it is a little optimistic to expect it. I can not comfort you because I do not know what* the outcome of your affair will be. You gambled with the social order. If you lose, don't whine about it. m * u Dear Jane Jordan—(This letter presents the same situation with one variation.) My boy friend says he expects to marry me some time when I get out of school. He said if I would work and make about $lO a week wc ••luld get married. I think if he loved me he wouldn’t want me to work. What do you think? CRAZY GIRL IN LOVE. Answer —I think your idea that your boy friend would not want you to work if he loved you is nonsense. Why shouldn’t you work? Os your own free will and accord you chose a boy too young to have solved an economic problem which baffles many grown men. It would be far better lor

you to pitch in and help him solve it than to remain in a socially insecure situation. You err when you expect your whole life to be given to you. You must work at each problem as it comes up. Since your present problem is lack of money, why not work for it? it tt a Dear Jane Jordan—Have Pseudo Mother read "Adopted Mother” in January Scribner’s magazine or the condensed article in February Reader’s Digest, SECRETARY. Answer—l read the article you mention and thought the viewpoint somewhat sentimental and more optimistic than the facts of adoption warrant —at least, in most cases.

Alpha Nu Chapter, Alpha Zeta Beta Sorority, has scheduled its meeting for 6:15 tomorrow at the Y. M. C. A.

J Stories in I STAMPS
THE l-cent and 2-cent stamps of the United States Columbian Exposition issue in 1893 provide stamp collectors with one of their brightest jokes. The lower value carries a copy of a painting showing a young, clean-shaven Columbus on the deck of his flagship, Santa Maria, as he comes in sight of land. But look at the 2-cent stamp, representing the landing of Columbus only a few hours later. There you see the great navigator appearing much older and with a full-grown beard! U.

Refinishing Will Give Automobile Appearance Like That of 1935 Car Duco Products Available for Copying Hues Late Models Flaunt; Cleaning Also Offers Field for Improvement. BY HELEN LINDSAY THIS may be the season of the year when a young mans fancy turns to thoughts of love, but it also is the season when the entire family begins to think of the family car and trips to Brown County, Turkey Run and other vacation spots. It’s much more fun tc go motoring in a shiny new car. and this year you may go as far as you like with color on your car. The automobile shows demonstrated this. There's anew interest in refinishmg the old family car, which may come out now in its new spring coat featuring al-
most any color from the deep dark blues, greens, browns r and maroon to a variety of new light tones, including r soft yellows, creams, blues, greens and tans. There are new Duco colors in these shades, and refinishing processes now are simple and inexpensive, so there is no excuse for the old family car to look "down at the heels” if the family budget won't permit purchase of anew one. Following the apparel vogue for neutral backgrounds! accented by color and also the trend for new and unusual color groupings, cars this season, both new and refinished, show new color combinations. The ones which are in and gray tones accented by color through thin line treatment are particularly smart. Among the many new lighter shades this season are the light greens, blues and yellows, often with grayish
tints. Cream colors in automobile finishes show a yellowish tinge, and light blues and light browns are in the popular color range, particularly light tans and browns with thin stripings of red; these colors are practical as well as pleasing, and afford a nice background for any apparel ensemble. In cleaning and refinishing the family car for another summer of service, careful attention to the upholstering will make it appear fresh and new r . Experts in this w r ork have compiled a booklet which gives instructions for this cleaning process. This is particularly appropriate now with the members of the Junior Chamber of Commerce advocating a general clean-up program in Indianapolis. Seats should be removed from the automobile and brushed. Grease spots can be removed from mohair seat coverings because they are broken up by the tips of the pile. In removing spots, apply a small quantity of good cleaning fluid to a clean cloth, start well outside the area of the grease spot and work toward it. Mohair also can be washed w’ith soap and water, If only lukewarm w'ater and a neutral soap are used. a tt a a a Treatments Suggested for Various Uses FOR particular kinds of stains, there are various treatments. Battery acid may be removed from seat coverings by covering the spot w r ith household ammonia water, permitting it to remain on a minute, and rinsing it off W’ith a clean cloth throughly w r et with cold w r ater. This should be done as quickly after the acid has been spilled as possible, before it has had time to eat a hole in the fabric. Blood stains can be removed from upholstery with a clean cloth wet with cold w’ater, but care should be exercised to use only the clean sections of the cloth for rubbing the stain. A cloth dampened with hot water will remove practically all candy stains made by candies containing chocolate. If the w r ater treatment is not completely successful, the stain should be sponged with a cloth wet wish carbon tetrachloride. Candy stains resulting from cream or fruitfilled chocolates can be removed by rubbing with a cloth soaked in lukewarm soap suds, and scraping while with a dull knife. This treatment should be followed by rinsing the spot w r ith a cloth w’et with cold water. a a an u tt Chewing Gum Can Be Removed CARBON tetrachloride will remove chewing gum from upholstery, and a dull knife should be used in the treatment of such spots. Enamels, paints and lacquers can be removed from upholstery if the stains are not too old. A clean cloth w r et with turpentine or a mixture of one part denatured alcohol, one part benzine, one part acetone and one part butyl or amyl acetate can be used on them. The mixture is best for dry stains. After removing the spot, the fabric should be rinsed with cold water. Practically all fruit stains can be removed by treatment with very hot water. Wet the stain well by pouring a little hot wrater (boiling if possible) directly on the spot. Then rub vigorously with a cloth saturated with very hot w r ater. Soap and w’ater are rot recommended for fruit stains, since they probably will set the stain.
