Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY W. E. MKENNEY
American Bridge League Secretary F course, North and South should not have reached a small slam contrget on today’s hand. There are too. many vital cards missing, the unfavorable location of which might easily wreck the contract. But South
was a confirmed optimist, and North held an ace-king suit, besides. . : Had the contract been defeated, probably there would have been one of those sharp interchanges of comment between the players, but as it was made by very brilliant play by South, it strengthened the partnership morale and helped them to go on and win top score in the duplicate event in which the hand was dealt. = South was misléd by North’s two no trump response to his opening bid. It was, of course, too strong, but even if it had been much sounder than it was, the
small slam was an extremely high
contract to reach. The opening lead was the queen of hearts, which South won with the ace. South now led the jack of clubs and overtook with the king in dummy, to provide, if necessary, an additional enfry to dummy. For, when the cards were exposed, he saw that he had

DAY
By Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt
YORK CITY, Friday.—How little we-ever know of
~~ what any day will bring forth! the news of Speaker Byrns' sudden
yesterday morning by death.
We were shocked
1 always think of those who are left behind. They have the consolation in this case of a long life filled with public service—many friends to testify to the Speaker’s fine char-
acter and lovable qu es. theless be borne alone by {
t the loneliness and loss must never who loved him best. My husband felt
a deep: sense of personal loss besides the official one, and I am truly
sorry for all the Speaker’s political
associates as well as his family.
This morning I attended the Todhunter School commencement. Because of the fact that our school is small, we ‘combine the last day of school and the giving out of prizes to the undergraduates with the
exercises for graduation. 1 saw my small granddaughter
receive two silver cups representing
perfect attendance and punctuality on her part for the entire school ‘year; pert of which is good-luck, but much of which is really valuable self-discipline. Mrs. O'Day came up to speak to the graduating class
and made a delightful address. At ¢ this afternoon I picked
up my two grandchildren and we
went to the train to meet their mother who has just returned from California. I left them to go home alone with her, for I remember how annoyed I was in the days of my own childhood when grown people would talk of their own affairs while I was bursting. to tell of my own achievements. However, I shall join them later for dinner. Last night we saw Maxwell Anderson’s play, “Winterset.” I missed it when it was here earlier and in the winter and was glad to have this opportunity of seeing it. It is beautifully written, and though I had read it, I enjoyed seeing it last night, for I think it is so well acted
and produced.

Young people contemplating marriage need to be trained for the seriousness of the step, and educated for a life partnership, in the opinion of Dr. Rothenburger.
Word “Obey” Is Out

“obey.” y > “That word has a pagan origin, and has no place in the marriage service of a Christian civilization,” he said. “Marriage is a partnership, and not a contract by which the wife stibordinates herself to her husband. She is his equal.” : In addition to omitting the word which hes caused so much dissension among husbands and wives, Dr. Rothenburger attempts to impress young couples with what he considers three rules which will help them in a successful married life. “Pirst, I remind them that marriage is a life partnership, and not a temporary thing,” he said. “Second, I counsel them that no home can attain the highest success or happiness without a spiritual foundation. “and third, I tell them that

Consider Marriage Before Ceremony, ~~ Is Pastor's Advice to Young Couples
young people should try to live within their means.” The third suggestion is an important one, Dr. Rothenburger emphasized
“Beonomic difficulties cause much trouble among young married people,” he said. “I believe that the average young couple should establish their own home, even if it means sdcrificing some of the come forts to which they have been accustomed. : ; “1 tell them that it is better to begin modestly, and build up, rather than to begin at the top and haye to recede.” . Budgets are necessary for every home, Dr. enburger stated. But for a wife to operate her household on an allowance is not only unsatisfactory, but, like the word “obey,” a remnant of barbarism. “Married persons should have confidence in each other, and sflould show it by a single checking account and a single savings account,” he contended. “When they operate their household in that way, they are really partners.” \
Cultural Amusement Desired
The family budget should include an allotment for books, flowers, music, and the highest type of entertainment, he indicated. “Ifa family has only $5 to spend for food, it might be well to spend a small amount of that for a bouquet, he said. The duty of parents in helping their children prepare for marriage rests with an attempt to dignify the home, inspire them with ideals, and give them a good atmosphere. “That is as far as they dare go,” Dr. Rothenburger said. “Parents have no right to attempé to select their children’s life parte ners.” While mixed-religion marriages may have happy results, they often result in difficulties, he said.
Tolerance Is Solution
“Often I have young people consult me on this matter. I never ade vise them not to marry,” Dr. Rothenburger said, “but I do point out to them the problems that will arise from such a marriage. “Tolerance would solve these problems. Frequently there is too much dogmatism which causes trouble in such marriages.” Dr. Rothenburger, while perturbed by the high divorce rate, said he feels the coming generation of youngsters will go into marriage on a much more frank basis than did their parents. : “They are free of ‘speech and actions,” he says. “Such freedom is , an antidote for over-prudishness. If kept within bounds and on an edue cational basis, young people’s frank~ ness with each other is a decided
