You make strengthening lead and await developments to see what your partner has In the way of a suit to be played for. Players are too apt to forget that they should ploy for their partner's hand as well as for their own.

If partner happen to have a suit can do then Is to try and prevent the adveraarles from establishing and bringing in their suit. The game is played ertfher actively for or defensively against a long suit in some hand. Properly speaking, there is no such thing as a game. An occasional short-Butt opening does not make it a ahort-sult game. The following play of a recent deal Is a good illustration of a Judicious short-trump opening, which resulted In a gain of two tricks.

At some of the recent evening meetings, Sargent of the Hemenway nasium has lectured, as well as Miss Orissa Smith, a well-known teacher of physical culture.

Dr. Josephine S. Harlow has read two papers on anatomy. She Is treasurer of tho society as well as one of the directors. The object of the society Is to promote health, tone up the and proiuce in each Individual a desire for a natural, systematic course of living.

Gilman Low. the vice-president and physical director, speaks with great enthusiasm on the scope of the society. His method is different In many from that of most gymnasiums. No weights are u.sed in the exercises as a rule, and this them les.s violent. Pupils are taught to control their muscles throxigh the power of the mind'.
