ELLEN'S DIARY

by an Island Farmer's Wife

We saw an Autumn like haze on the waning summer": hilltops to- day. and there was a benign mel- lowneaa in the sunshine which lav- ad the fields and woodlands of our valley with gold. How lovely it was-this day, graced now with goldenrod in many a place instead of the daisies and clovery and with the ripeness of the harvest-time wmrnencing to set its quiet spell over the farmlands!

We should by rights, we decided. gather something from its treas- ures. selecting them with some be- wilderment from the myriad in dis- play. to have by us to stay our spirits when wintry winds born of Gulf or Strait should bear bluster- ing and cold about the house-top lo,.as we are given to do. we rest- ed in this round that is ours. rest- ing the work of our hands and every concern of spirit and mind to drink deeply of the glories of nature spread about . . .

s . .

And somewhere else from an Is- land window or doorway of lawn, a' woman looked out, it is likely, to a blue expanse of seat stretching in sparking reaches out and away toward far horizons beyond which only her imaginings had ever gone; where nearer lines of white came in, lace-edged to break in small and greater wavu upon the sands of the ages.

And somewhere a woman looked out to see the fishing-crafts or boats on pleasure bent, coursing out and out on the sea-ways. hap- py the day was so fair; prows cut- ting the little paths we have so often noted only to lose them soon in the great tr-aicklass deep.

And one maybe lookad out across a quiet bay. which mirrorcd light-

Contract Bridge By Josephina Culbertson

EUPXIOI. PLAY

A hand in the rocsnt Wastsrn team-of-four tournament permitted the dcclarer. Mr. Bchleifer. once an Austrian expert, now a California Life Master. to show his skill.

Our California correspondent wrote that he was forbidden to divulge the bidding-presumably, it was "unusual” - but the final contract was two spades by South, doubled by East.

West opened his top diamond, and East cashed the top cards in that suit and in hearts. then exited with a small diamond. South tut-

And there it was! Though it were only the grace of gulls' wings dipping and soar- ing in mysterious, Xl0l.S,Y, quest.

One. saw level reaches of farm- lands. but not as of late with a tale of the haying about. That was gone and in its stead, the accent was now on the graiii-lands inio uhich were creeping the shades of the hariest.

Another looked down upon the roofs of a little village at a cross- ioads. by which trnlfic moved busi- ly. She hiimmed a bit of sacred melody to herself at the sight, for there to remind her, towering above all else, the Church-spire pointed out Heavenly items.

And we? We smiled remember- ing a day of a year long gone and the remark of a visitor to Alder- lea. "I don't see how you manage to stay here, Ellen." she shrugged. ”It's so quiet, it would drive me frantic! And besides you can't see a. thing . only a mill and a neighboring farm or two. Nothing,” she nodded. "but those hills!”

What then was there for us to gather from out this August day? So much of sky, and stream, of field and meadow and woodland that was marvellous And among all this, a sight of the farm- trs and machines busy at the last of the mowing!

defense: he ruffed with tho ten of spades.

If South had overufied at this point. or if he had discarded his last side-suit card. the heart. de- feat would have been inevitable. The repercussions from either play are easy to follow. On the over- ruff by south, East will stiu have the J-6 of trumps and a diamond against South's 8-1 of trumps and the heart. If South loads the heart. lhst gets both of his trumps; if south loads a trump, East wins and forces South's last trump with a diamond return. If. instead of overruffing, south discards the heart, East leads tha diamond and South must ruff in his own and. Then he must lead from the Q-8 of trumps to Eastls J4.

But South did neither of the things mentioned above he under-ruffed East's spade ten with the seven, and now East was fix- ed. On his diamond return - as good as any South discarded his heart. ruffed in dummy, and then had East coupsd in trumps on the following club lead from the table.

However, there was a chance to overcome allobstacles, and South went about that very matter in masterful fashion. ; He led his low club to the queen: and returned a trump. East pro-i perly split his sequence, putting in the nine, and South won. Nowl the club king was overtaken withi the ace and the club Jack was: played. Again East offered the bestl

NEW YORK-:NEA)--Now that the shouting has died down and the Dictures have arrived from Paris, it's time to stand back and take an American appraisal of Christian Dior) ”Llgne H" qr "the lost bosom."

There's actually nothing of the flattened-out flapper look in Lhg new Dior silhouette. The sweater Km built: is out and in its place there's a pretty. gentleg lifted and only slightly flattened line.

The edict says that the bust is

now about eight inches from the shoulders. American women, ac customed to shoving their hips

around and moving their waist- lines anywhere from shoulder to knees, should be able to achieve this without trouble.

What happens when "Llgne H" hits these shores like a tidal wave is that our own designer; wlu take the French silhouette, modi- fy it for American women and

present it in highly wcuyblg f0l”m- Thll-I. the sweater look. popular in certain circles since

the American idea shown in June. 1954. It doesnt flatten the bosom but lifts it very high. It is a be- coming line, already accepted fundamentally in America."

Jack l-lorwitz, .lr.: "I think the Dior silhouette will be popular with young people who are bored with the cinch waist and very full skirts. Young fashions are apt to be even more exaggerated than the clothes worn by older women."

Charles James: "The furor that Dior's new collection has caused is a perfect example of the humor present in every public reaction to forward-looking creative de- sign. First, indignant resistance, than stunned resignation and final- ly enthusiastic acceptance."

There actually are some other designers in Paris. strange though the idea may seem in the midst of the Dior excitement. And some of them have come up with pretty, highly wearable clothes. In fact. Paris has produced a variety of fashions this season.

What do American designers think of the new Dior look? Ibi- lowing an old American custom, they express highly individual and conflicting opinions. The box score on some of the top designers goes like this:

Mollie Psrnls: "I don't think American women will give up what they fought so hard to gain -a neat waistline. a pretty torso and a long-legged look."

Lily Dacha: "It is time for I change and use more startling it is, the better.”

Ben zuokarman: "Dior is a great designer and always contributes something. But we all have can own ideas and I have expreasod myself in my own way."

Cecil Chapman: "1 always seem to find myself in an argirment with Dior but in this one, I am sure all the woman in America will loin ma. e not romantic curva- -for evenng eapoo ."

'OfFoodFads

SOOD fads affect. the health but not in the manner desired. Man! who follow such fads have sctusll! become victims of them.

There are groups of people who eat certain foods merely because it is fashionable to do so. without re- lation to their nutritional values. These foods may not add matarislly in our health.

lpoolal Virtues

Many people falsely attach spe- cial virtuas to particular foods or diet. They may feel that fruits act as a body cure. so they eat fruits to excess in comparison with thsrrut of their necessary diet. actually cut-

ting out some other necessary foods. vitamins in themselves do not

produce energy. but. without vita- mins, energy cannot be manufac- tured by the body. Vitamins and minerals merely enable the body to utilize foods which produce energy. Loss of Value

Certain foods we eat today suf- fer loas of nutritional value due lo improper cooking. atorase or P”- ceasing.

Many people do not eat a well balanced diet and. of course. cer- tain foods are harmful to certain people. Man can exist on a non- meat diet, as in vegetarianism, but food must be selected with very great care if a proper balance is to be obtained.

some food faddists claim that much of our food has been grown in soil that is depleted and there- fore is unfit for consumption. May- be some of it has. But the food eaten by most Americans today usually comes from so many differ- ent sources that a slight deficiency would not affect the average per- son.

QUESTION AND ANSWER

Mr. P.: I have a child six years old who has it duodenal ulcer. Will he recover from this?

Answer: Most ulcers in children are readily cured by medicine and diet. Although ulcers occur quite rarely in children, when they do occur they are rapidly amenable to treatment.
