Tho inanuetiuins affect naive mannerisms, wear flat heels and abstain from the sophisticated makeup and accessories that they wear with old.er styles. "Imagine me looking like that." giggled u 17-year old American girl biggest dress houses, when a sim ple model designed especially Tor debutantes was shown her.

Caution in (Con tract can be greatly overdone, if players fall to bid with hands which would produce panics, and permit their opponents to run away with a game every time it Is in the hand, the opponents while at times suffering losses will In the long run lie much more than com pensated by t he premiums they obtjiln for winning their rub burs. The conservative 1 player who stays out of alt pols un less he1 has a big hand, loses a few insignificant antes, but the con servative Contract bidder. who never permits himself to make a bid unless he has a cinch, loses so many "oo's that with normal luck his score presents u sad figure at the, end of the season.
