Club Women’s Speaker Lauds Party Battles Good for Government, Zetta Jewell Miller Declares. America owes much to the political battles of Republican and Democratic parties, Mrs. Izetta Jewell Miller, regional WPA director of Women's work, today told delegates to the forty-seventh annual convention of the Indiana Federation of Clubs at the Claypool. “When both parties assert themselves vigorously, we on the political sidelines feel confident that the ship of state is off the reefs and on the road to recovery,” she said. ‘‘The crisis rs the last few years has aroused American women to a keener political consciousness, and to a better understanding of the social and economic aspects of the political picture. Seen through a woman’s eyes, the recognition by political leaders of the government’s responsibility for the social as well as the industrial security of the people is the most hopeful trend in political thought today.’ Dr. Elliott Speaks The convention was to close today, following two days of discussion sessions and reports. Discussions on parliamenta r y law, international relations and legislation to be sponsored constituted the remaining forum subjects today. General convention meetings have been presided over by Mrs. Frederick G. Ealz, federation president. More than 500 delegates representing some 21,000 women attended the three-day meeting in the Claypool. Dr. Edward C. Elliott, Purdue University president, spoke at a banquet last night on “The Liability of Ability." He told the club women that the two great contesting groups in the next decade will be the conservatives, who want the world as it was before the war, and the conservationists, who want to the world to go foward where it should be because of the war. Favors Merit System The federation adopted resolutions and elected officers yesterday. The federation puts itself on record as favoring the merit system with trained personnel in government work, naUonal representation for residents of the District of Columbia and universal fingerprinting as a protective measure. Officers elected after uncontested unanimous nominations were Mrs. George W Jaqua, Winchester, first vice president: Mrs. William I. Ellison, Winona Lake, recording secretary; Mrs. Oscar A. Ahlgren, Whiting, treasurer, and Miss Louise Klinger, Brazil, trustee. Dr. Charles Emerson, Indianapolis, is to talk this afternoon before members in a public welfare forum on the subject,. “Habits for Living at Our Best.” A banquet for past presidents and installation of officers tonight is to close the meeting.

Good to Eat

LEFT-OVER DAY MAKING coffee for the family is usually a simple matter. Habits are known and cups can be measured with fair accuracy. But at dinner, especially if there are guests, the beverage demand is not so easily estimated. Often after dessert plates are empty and cigars and cigarets are in order, a feeling of mellowness descends around the table and one story leads to another, and coffee cups travel almost automatically to the hostess. At other timp, every one seems hurried and the coffee pot returns to the kitchen with some not dispensed. But whether there’s a lot or a little left over it c.„n play a part in concocting delicious desserts; even the fraction of a cup is enough for icing a cake. MOCHA FROSTING Cream >i pound butter, add 1 cup confectioners sugar and V* cup of strong coffee. And more sugar if frosting is not right consistency. Sift the sugar before adding. Spread. COFFEE CREAM FOR 5 1 cup strong coffee. U cup sugar. 1 rounded teaspoon gelatin. 2 cups whipping cream. Soak the gelatin in a little cold coffee.

COFFEE JELLY FOR 4 t For 1 pint of coffee (two cups) prepare 1 small tablespoon granulated gelatin by soaking in a little cold coffee. Have the rest of the coffee hot and sweeten to taste.

Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY WM. E. M’KENNEY American Bridge League Secretary THE better bridge players today are keen students of opening leads. In the days of auction bridge a player simply led the fourth from his longest and strongest suit, or the top of the partner’s suit, and in some cases certain honor combinations required definite leads. Today in contract, however, a player must consider every angle of the bidding.

* 1074 ¥ X 10 7 5 4 2 ♦ 6 2 * A 6 *853 UQJ9 ¥93 w C VQJ6 ♦KB3 e ♦ J 10 9 5 4 *KJIO7 5 *B4 3 n>?!r * AK62 ¥ A 8 *A Q 7 * Duplicate—All vul. South West North East 1 * Pass 2 ¥ Pass 2NT. Pass 3 ¥ Pass 3N T Pass Pass Pass Opening lead—* K. 7

One of the most brilliant opening leads I have seen for quite a while was made by Robert Appleyard in a recent duplicate game m New York. Appleyard reasoned that North s bid and rebid of hearts showed a long suit. South's refusal to allow the contract, to be played at hearts indicated strength in the minor suits. He had bid spades also. Therefore, the spade lead was out. To lead a he_rt might only es-

, tablish the heart suit for declarer. The diamond suit contained a probable in-card. It looked as though the natural suit to'open was clubs; but now what card to lead? And here’s the reasoning Appleyard applied: It was likely that, between declarer and the North hand, they held the ace-queen of clubs. Therefore, any club lead would give declarer two tricks. However, there were two combinations that would be detrimental to declarer. If dummy held the blank queen of clubs or the ace and one, the lead of the king of clubs would be the proper play, because, with the blank queen in dummy, West’s club suit would be established immediately. If North held the ace and one, then the entry would be killed in dummy, and that probably would prevent declarer from establishing his heart suit. So on this theory the king of clubs was opened, and you can see what it did to today’s hand. Declarer was not able to get into dummy to cash the long hearts after that suit had been established. Instead of making four odd. the t contract was defeated one trick. [ (Copyright. 1936. bv NEA Service. Inc.)
