GOOD OPENING Somehow. Mr. Muzzy got off to his b'sl opening, the seven of clubs. The queen was fines ; .ed

There was erne thing he did know, however. He knew he didn't want ar diamond lead from Mr. Muzzy. Using the suit preference signal, he would have returned his lowest club if he had wanted a return lead in the lower of the other two plain suits. Actually, he welcomed a lead in the higher suit, spades. So at trick two he led back with the nine of

THE CHOICE Mrs. Keen won on the board with the jack and led the 10 of hearts. Mr. Champion stepped right in with the ace and fired back the eight of clubs. Mr. Muzzy ruffed this last trick and how had a choice of leads beJwccn spades and diamonds. After considerable thought, he :ame to the biillifi-nt conclusion Mr. Champion might have the ace of diamonds so that the lead of the queen would- trap lummy’s king. In any case he led the queen of diamonds and Mrs. Keen won with the ace. She took a- round nf trumps, then finessed against Mr. Muzzy’s jack of diamonds and made her game.

ridffitly darr;e= ifr* married to some fairly handsome fellows? '•either the statisticians with :heir five million frustrated females nor the author of the “eapjetting” contingent are 100 per ent accurate. So why not keep the more optimistic formula as >’Our modus operand! ? Leap Year has little to do with matrimony, anyhow. It is more by way of accident that -romance flowers, than by outright proposals from the lady. Such as, wasn't it accidental that you could arrange that introduction to your present prey— uh, suitor? Wasn't it pure luck that you happened to meet him tonight, just when you could ask for some good masculine advic? on—well, you will think of something before he arrives for dinner. Ah, that dinner! What but accident that you learned to cook his favorite fare, eh? Steak and kidney pie, pickles with sour cream and Roquefort dressing, stewed cabbage and wiener schnitzel ? And sheer coincidence that you no longer gag when so doing ? When he volunteered the news that some men liked blue but he preferred orange, for girls’ dresses, wasn’t it accident which put that cute orange velveteen in the shop window the very next day? An outdoor type, he—and you accidentally sniffed some fresh air without dizziness? What he likes, you like. What he thinks, you think—or at least are too well-bred to contradict him point blank. You discovered, by accident, that you just plain love this guy. Leap Year has nothing to do with it. February 29 every fourth year is a masculine device for playing hard-to-get. Have no part of it. When he mentions the subject, look dumb and then listen. Listen while he tells yon, ‘‘Well, since the question of getting married came up—well, it’s time a fellow should be thinking of setttling down — well, will you?” And I wouldn’t mention anything about homely women setting their caps, or anything. Leave that one in the book strictly.

“It is an old but very vital truth that upon our schools rests much of the hope for the future of freedom. For to love freedom is, first of all, to understand it.” President Dwight D. Eisenhower. The following is the first of what is planned to be a series of articles on various phases of national, sta‘f. and local education, supplemented by a series fifteen educational “cartoons.” It is hoped that this plan will implement and help maintain a continuing public interest in education. A continuing and continu ous public interest is essential to the process of organizing a school system into the most effective, educational administrative unit, to catch up with the needed school facilities for ous ever-increasing population, to attract and hold an adequate supply of properly qualified teachers, and to finance these out of the public purse. By ”! • - '.st” much more than casual concern is implied; it implies special attention, informed understanding, willing cooperation, and, above all, faith and trust in our entire educational system. ‘‘We know that there is a close

relationship between education and our national defense, between education and economic prosperity, between education and our standards of living, between education and our social and eultural attainments, between education and the health and welfare of our people, between education and happine and peace. Our school system is the greatest force at our com mand.” (From report on White House Conference) Superintendent J. McLean o r the Danville, Illinois City School has very effectively said, “The citizens’ group is the democratic answer to the problem of educa tion, giving the local citizen a - understanding he could no otherwise gain and prompting h him the willingness to provide for educational needs essential to growth and development.” Since it is the citizens of every community who support the lota educational program, they should be informed concerning some of its problems and methods of operation. These articles and “cartoons” will by no means be allinclusive but they should supplement existing knowledge and as sist in the correction of some erroneous notions that may exist.

Across The Counter

“Pete” Is a successful mer. chant here in Greencastle, and his business has grown steadily. Not lorg ago he visited his friend the banker to borrow a little more *°1. He needed extra money to "airy eiistom e r ’ s acounts and buy greater stocks of mer-

chandise.

The .banker looked over his financial statement. It was good, but he was pa r-

ticuiarly impressed by P te’s remarks under the heading “Insurance Cat t ied.” Petehad written in: ‘‘Complete; fire insurance an extended coverage at full val : • o r ’ ventory, comprehensive general liability, business interruption, and even insuw' e on

my accounts receivable in

the event fire I

destroys my

records.”

A smile came across the banker’s face. “That’s what I like to see,’’ he said, “for naturally it reduces our risk when you are fully protected. Pete, you carry more insurance than, we require, but it will result in a bigger loan and on ikore favorable

terms.”

Benefit by Pete’s example, fully protect your own business. Perhaps .better financing will result for you!! Simpson Stoner INSURANCE Phone 6

efficient 8.9 to 1 compression ratio to squeeze the last ounce of go out of every drop of gas . . . with high torque for sizzling take-off . . . with a blazing

227 horsepower!

A new transmission: an engineering masterpiece specifically designed to utilize the full thrust of that great engine . .. with gears for instant response and crisp, positive acceleration . . . and an amazing liquid-link coupling for a silky-smooth flow of power

to the rear wheels.
