MR. ABEL Nou the first
trick with the king of diamonds. He followed with the queen and Mrs. Keen ruffed. The problem was, how to get rid of that spade loser. She solved the problem in a workmanlike manner as follows. First she cashed all of her remaining trumps, getting everybody down to six cards, Mr. Sharpe had to hold on to four clubs to prevent dummy’s deuce of clubs from becoming a winner. Therefore he had to reduce his spade holding to two cards. J ” ” NOW DUMMY’S three top clubs were cashed, after which dummy was down to a spade, the four of diamonds and the deuce of clubs. Mrs. Keen had three spades to the ace-king. Mr, Abel had to play to the 10th trick, holding J Q 6 of spades and the ace of diamonds. If he ditched the diamond, dummy’s four would win. Therefore he,c too, had to get down to two spades and Mrs. Keen won the last three tricks in the spade suit. » :

Dolls Tell Fashion.Story
By BETTY LOCHER Times Fashion Editer
HE complete history of what the well dressed mother-
in-waiting has worn from the days of ancient Egypt -
to the present will be told in capsule form in a window display at Page Boy Maternity Shop from Dec. 26 through
Jan. 2, The display is a museum in miniature of exquisite two-foot dolls carefully and authenti-
cally dressed in maternity fash-
ions. They have been assembled after considerable research and are authentic from the color and fabric of their costumes to the arrangement of their coiffures. Presented by the Frankfurt sisters of Dallas, Tex., originators of Page Boy, the collection has created considerable national interest on its tour of the country. It is of special value to coiffeur experts, doll collectors, students of design and Egpytology as well as expectant mothers. ?
The collection unfolds an absorbing story involving the stage, royalty and the law. Fashions of the Middle Ages and Renaissance were designed especially to make child-bear-ing popular and replenish the population after decades of depleting warfare. The dress that influenced an entire century of fashion was introduced
by a famous actress in her role as a pregnant princess. Maternity modes of queens and empresses became synonymous with the “smart look,” and have had tremendous influence upon the overall style picture for centuries.

EACH CHILD HAS made ornaments for School 89's first Christmas tree. Here individual room programs are being held also. The setting for School 77's Christmas story-from the Bible at 7:30 p. m. today will be the lovely new auditorium in the modern school. For 20 years it was a portable school. This is but a sampling of holiday activities in schools. But it's proof you can find the Christmas spirit in any and all of them.
Dye Is Versatile
Colorful, new-looking wearables for the children can easily be made from “hand-me-downs,” with the aid of a home dye-bath.
