"I could have made it,” said Mr. Muzzy sadly. "This is news?” Mr. Champain sneered. "Of course you could have made it and by the simplest play in the world.” "I know it.” replied Mr. Muzzy irritably. “I could have guesst\ the right way to finesse against the queen of spades and the queen of hearts and won three spades, four hearts, a diamond in 1 a club. But how did I know .vhere those queens were?” DECK FIKST LEAD “Dope,” snorted Mr. Champion. "You didn’t need to guess the ocation of any queen. All you >a<l to do was to duck the first club lead.” Mr. Muzzy looked horrified at his suggestion but Mr. Cham)ion was right. If the four of lubs had been played from dummy at trick one, the defenders would have had two choices, both hopeless. They could hnve shifted to another suit in which case Mr. Muzzy would have plenty of time to set up his diamonds. The other alternative would be ;o continue clubs. But that would take the last club from Miss Brash’s hand so when she was n with the king of diamonds, she ould make no damaging return.

LOOKING... ...AT LIFE By Erirb Brandeis Something is the matter with the world. I have lived on this earth for more than a half century now and, frankly, I cannot remember any time when things were so uncertain, when everybody was so jittery, when one did not know from one day to the other what was going to happen. Personally, I am a confirmed optimist although, I am sure, that makes no difference to you. But there must be thousands if not millions of other optimists who don’t like this business of hanging in the air and who would like to discover just what is wrong. Well, I think I HAVE discovered it. I was reading an article by a science writer, Donald G. Cooley, in which he calls the recent smoking scare a “wave*of hysteria about cigarets” and says that to claim that cigaret smoking causes lung cancer is simply a tendency to believe that one event causes another because the two happen to occur to about the same degree over the same time-scale.” He cites, as an example of the fallacy of the argument, the fact that life expectancy has increased considerably during the past years and that, naturally, as more people live longer, the incidence of the diseases to which they fall victims also increases proportionately. However, the cigaret and cancer argument is not something that I want to discuss here. I don’t want to discuss it because I don’t know anything about it. I just want to quote from Cooley’s article a statement by Dr. Milton B. Rosenblatt, pulmonary disease specialist at New York Medical College. “The recent ability to diagnose lung cancer plus the fact hat it conies only in old^- age groups, which have increased tremendously during the past j two decades, seems sufficient to explain the increased incidence of the disease.” And then Mr. Cooley goes on: “We live in an age of intimidation. in which we are not exhorted to love life but to fear death. You’ve heard the familiar warning that ‘one out of eight will die of cancer.’ Have you heard that ‘seven out of eight will never have cancer ?” There, I believe, lies the answer. Why always talk and think about the bad things; why not put the emphasis on the good ones? Why live in fear of death or -

disaster rather than in love of life and the blessings we have? We have had a war in Korea But now we have peace. We have had a lot of rain, but now the sun shines. Or. perhaps it’s the other way ’round. Aftei a drought the blesed rain comes and makes things grow again. Why talk and think so much about diseases rather than about the wonderful discoveries medicine is making and the constant progress of science ? Man was created by God to stand erect with his head up Why not look to the SKY rather than down to the earth with the animals and the insects and the reptiles?

Religion teaches us that Heaven in up and Hell is down. Why make this life a Hell on earth when it an be so beautiful by just having some faith, a lot of hope and a good measure of optimism ? Life is what we make it— let us make the best of it. ANGWELL WOMEN’S BOWLING LEAGUE
