West opened his singleton heart; East put up the ace and returned the heart queen. South covered. and saw his heart king ruffed away by West, who then exited with the diamond seven. Declarer won. drew two rounds of trumps, and then took stock.

He had already lost two tricks and he still had two hea-t losers, one diamond and one club. Thus. he would evidently have to go down two tricks. However. after long thought. he had an inspira- tion.

West, thrown in. could return nothing hilt ll. rlilh. The diamond was dill- carded from dummy while Boutl-. discarded a heart.

ELLEN’S DIARY

by an Island Farmer’: Wife

If blessed with continuing fair skies how busy for the farm folk this week proposes to be! Even now on farmlands washed by the moonlight, tractors are into over‘- ..nie on the night-fields.

"It": strange when you come to consider it." a farmer in his car at the door commented whimslcally this evening. "We buy ‘big’ mach- inery to make the field-work easier and to get it done more quickly-— and then." he chuckled. "we find ourselves working not only all day out into the night as well. In old .i1Jl'lllgS," he offered, “at this hour. nothing would be moving out of doors. Oh well." he moderated the statement, "there would be the odd young lad off about his courting. out the older folks would be pretty tar illio their beauty sleep by this . . resting a bit light.“ he laugh- crl quietly. "ln case they mould over-sleep!"

"There was a good bit of truth in the assertion of the old-timer who when Rob was installing the electrical power uiilt some few years ago said there wasn't m.uch need of it—a fellow could still do a heap of chorlng and farming ifi he made good use of all the day- .ight hours!" we smiled. I

"That's the way it used to bez- to bed with the chickens . . . up at the crack of dawn-making use of the daylight," he nodded. “But look at us now: tractona in the fields at all hours of the night: yard-lights throwing wide arcs for the chorlng! cars and trucks flying hither and you in their own lights. You'd think we lived in a place of perpetual daylight — some land of a midnight sun! . . . But there’: many a morning. Ellen." he smiled. ‘I find myself wishing we hadn't

For today Rob found time to shear his little flock. this year using for the first time "power" shears to have the chore soon completed. The afternoon found him at the Home- farm to join in the threshing of I grain-stack.

"I can't recall so late a thresh- ing as this. since I started to farm," James said. "but then the bit of extra grain will never come a- miss." Neither will the xll'ﬂ\\', which was blown to a loft, be considered as something to be wasted. Every- thing harvested last year, includ- ing the crops of potatoes. as well as considerable brought in. is being used up on the farms and sooner or later finds its way back to the fields.

With an alert little boy in help us. we set a hen this evening, tucking in the eggs beneath the broad wings as the day tucked away the little winds and the clouds to rest.

That Body of Yours By James W. Barton. M. D. T!!! AUTOMOBILE CRASH

VIC

Even if we are only going for a short drive, we often come across the victims of a motor accident. Usually. a. physician is already on the scene.

There are many conditions in which efficient first aid is required. therefore it is gratifying to learn what is required of the physician or one with some knowledge of first aid.

In Medical Clinics of North America some very helpful sugges- tions on the care of the automobile :-rash victim are given by Dr. John ‘F. Reynolds. Assistant Professor of Surgery. University of Illinois Col- loge of Medicine. '

As the physician cannot. be siuc lust. what injury has occurred. he must be very careful in trying to find the location and extent of the injury.

"The care of such patients re- quires that the attending physicisii must be alert to the hazards winch may involve any and all systems of the body. Emergency situations which threaten life (bleeding, cut- ting off of breathingi must be cor- rectcd by repeated examination of the patient. as new developments may arise for some time after the accident has occurred." Since it may require several hours before the bodily ftlnctlons readjust them- selves, the absolutely necessary first things should be. done first. Tl‘ll.i means that a "careful" examlnatton be made first in order to lay out or list the most necessary duties to save life and prevent any danger- oust conditions in transporting the patient to the nearest hospital oi first aid station. carelessness in handling the body of the viciini. .=uc.h as driving over rough roads or having a willing bystander shake the victim's head to restore cort- sciouaness.

How Can I?

By Anne Ashley

Q. How can I remove scratches from furniture so that they will not be noticeable?

A. Use equal parts of best salad oil and vinegar; mix and bottle and shake well before using. Dip a pad of soft rag in the mixture and rub well in the wood till scratchu dis- appear. A mixture of equal quanti- ties of linseed oil and turpentine is also good. Use iodine for scratches on walnut or mahogany.

Q. How can I darn a -worn rug?

A. Use rug wool of the same shade as the rug. It will not be noticeable and will wear longei than if one waits until an actual hole has formed.
