Nobody wears muslin now, but the flowered voiles with their quaint, lovely patterns re-, produce the effect very nicely. And , of course the more ruffles the better to carry out the effect. For women who do not look well in 'ert hats and ruffles, and are wise nough to avoid them, there are love- h y frocks of soft silk and voile with Iniore clinging, draped lines. With Ithese go drooping picture hats of leg horn and of wired lace trimmed with 'ostrich or roses. And for all women re etunntng tailored frocks of linen the fabric of fabrics this season cood looking frocks trimmed With eoutache braid, tucks and rows of buttons. These will be accompanied y smart, simple sport hats of fine, supple straw banded with grosgrain ribbon. A new sport sailor of black xnilan has a brim that is very narrow At the back and scoops down at the front. The grosgrain bow Is tied straight across the front. Frills upon frills appear In this ummer day frock (653), of pale pink handkerchief linen with Its flower girdle of ribbon. Nol a frill is gath ered, however. They are all cut on the circular, as dressmakers say, and ach circular frill is bound with pale lavender handkerchief linen. The flowers at the belt are made of pink nd lavender ribbon and there are narrow bands and bows of lavender ribbon around the elbow sleeves. The ekirt has a deep hem turned up on the outer side and bound with lav ender. A new way to make the summer frock is with a little bolero jacftet like this (421 ), the waist and skirt embroidered to show beneath the Jacket. This frock is built of crepe la. guerre, a dainty new summer fab ric and the embroidery is done with Mack and white floss, giving an ef fect of ribbon passing through crashes. Rather odd. and quite new is the upturned tuck set at the hip- Itne. It breaks the plain, gathered ekirt and sets off the embroidery above and below the belt. Kere is a summer frock (42$), that will please all women because of its daintiness combined with really prac tical qualities. The material is soft white silk Jersette new this year and the embroidery is done with black and white silk floss. The gathered sloping tunic, the draped sash-ends or shall one call them necktie ends? and the draped re vers and collar are ail simple in style, yet combine in an effect of perfect grace. A dosen or so small white buttons in a straight line give smartness to the kimono sleeve.

An established suit from the start is the exception rather than the rule. Generally one or more rounds must be played and often one or more finesses made before this end Is attained. The better, therefore, to capture an ad verse high card or cards of a suit and so establish it without loss, or at least at the minimum loss, it often becomes necessary to lead the suit twice or oftener from the same hand, finessing in the other. When this hand proves to be the dummy hand and it is void or nearly void of re true, and the adversary holding the king should undoubtedly have held it up if possible. The declarer, how ever, took the only chance which of fered of the clubs making, and what ever might have been the result, his 1 play and the principle governing It were absolutely correct. If players improve the only chance which offers of accomplishing a cer tain well-mapped-ou scheme, they have nothing to regret, aside from their disappointment at loss, if the Play goes wrong and the scheme falls of accomplishment. And right here I would say that if players generally would cease to bewail their poor holdings, and concentrate upon the endeavor to save every trick possible. while to be sure their score might- show but little, they would at least have the consciousness - of having I Channell Chemical Co, Distributors, Chicago, Toronto, London, Paris For AO Furniture and Woodwork olish 30c to $3 Sizes At AH Dealers entries, the declarer from the start done the best possible with very poor must endeavor to proviae it witn sui ficient re-entries as that it again may secure the lead material. Such players in a sense are I as any . of the other missing cards. I leads to the first trick is warned deserving of greater congratulations I W'th such holding, if queen or Jack, I such combination, the adversary who With certain combinations In the two hands (to be hereafter given) a finesse is almost always advisable. unless the suit is so long as to make it otherwise. When a sound finesse is unsuccessful, it is due to the par ticular distribution of the cards, and not, as one may be Inclined to think. to lack of Judgment. However, finesse in common with all plays in auction. calls for a thorough understanding of the subject and of the particular situ ation and well deserves careful at tention. A finesse may be made somewhat more 'freely in trumps than in plain suits for the reason that commanding trumps are bound to make. At the same time it would be unwise to finesse in trumps if It is known or suspected the adversary can ruff a suit, or, more especially if a cross ruff is imminent. It behooves one in such case to win the immediate trick and at once take as many rounds ot trumps as are needed to exhaust the adversaries. A finesse under such conditions might result in an extra trick, but on the other hand, it could easily mean the loss of several tricks. At a no-trump declaration the de clarer should studiously avoid a finesse which, if unsuccessful, would let in the adversary who has an es tablished suit. The finesse in such case should be taken against the part ner of such player If it is known he has no more left of the suit and so will be unable to put the holder again in the lead. This, as can be seen, will reduce the chances of the suit being brought in to the minimum, making it dependent in fact upon the holder of the suit himself holding a re-entry. Declarer should also retrain from taking a finesse which, if unsuccess ful, would block his suit and admit of the adversary taking out the hand s only re-entry. Such condition applies more particularly, ot course, to the dummy hand and to situations like the following: Declarer gets the bid at no trumps on a holding of v 4 r A Q A K J 8 A 6 5 3 2 The adversary to lead leads a fourth best heart, and dummy shows .. v A K. 4k J 10 5 4 3 '6 2 8 7 Declarer sees the club suit is the suit to endeavor to establish, bo, hav ing won the heart trick with the dummy king, he at once leads the club. His own two clubs, ace and queen, block the suit in dummy's hand, therefore, while under ordinary conditions he would undoubtedly finesse the queen, re realises he must play the ace and endeavor to force the king on the second round, thus establishing the suit, while the dummy still has the heart re-entry. Accord ingly he plays the ace, next leads the queen, which forces the king and the suit becomes established. Should he play the queen and the finesse go wrong, as in this case It would do, the adversary winning with the king would at once take out the dummy's heart re-entry and his euit would never make. As it Is the adversary's worst play would be to lead the heart, so he shifts the lead In the hope to reach strength in his partner's hand. Whatever he may lead, however, de clarer Immediately gets in and leads the heart, dummy secures the lead and makes his suit. One may argue that If the king of clubs had not been played to the sec ond round of the suit the declarer's pains would have gone for naught, and It would have still been impos sible for the clubs to make. . This is than their more fortunate adver- or both, be in one hand, and ace in the saries who make a big score for the other, queen or Jack, ae the case may reason that with their particular be, should be led 'towards the ace In holding they could not do otherwise, the hope to tempt the king.

Even so it is often well if the suit can be led by one's partner through the pos sible king in the declarer's hand, but In the event the partner has not btf:. it - is just a chance as to which su. will enable him to secure xhe lead. is doubtful if he will lead the particu Moreover, even if he does get in, it lar suit if the leader himself has not made a bid and so indicated it- The risks, therefore, which one entails In the effort to have the sui. led by one's partner'often counterbalance the dis advantage of opening the suit one's self. At times, however, especially if third player puts up a card that will otherwise hold the trick, declarer is forced to play the king, rather than undergo the danger of being led through and losing the king. With it all, though there are some players who are religiously opposed to lead ing from such combination, and will lead any other suit in preference.
