TUTS is edueiition week, a very important occassitin.
Tiinre lire more mid bettor hcIiooIh in the country today and n
trrcnler proportion of cliildn'n unending them, than ever before,
while the problem of the eollenes is not to get students, but to take
tare of the excess thousands who storm the academic nates, at the
licijiiiniii!' of every school year.
"America," said a prominent Kastcrn college president (he
other flay, "is education-mud."
That may be, but if so it is an excellent form of madness. For
one can hardly net loo much education. The only danger in such a
eoj 1'riMizy for knowledge is that the label mav be mistaken for the sub-
1.00 I
nillllCU,
For after all the mere accpiisition of an assortment of miscel
laneous facts is not education. An individual may .be loaded with
sheepskins and decrees and honor marks and still-not qualify as an
educated person.
For to be educated the mind must not only be stored but trained.
And no mind can be trained, which docs not possess the balance
wheel (if character.

Aaao'tiate'd r I'r'eM ' "f schools ii nd colleges today is to instill character as the hand

This is an easy tiling to say, but a tremendously hard thing to do.
If Education week could contribute to the solution of this problem,
in any material way, it would mark the urea I est human advance
iccnt in the history of modern civilization.

No score, first game. B dealt and bid
one diamond, Z one spade, A two hearts
and Y two spades. B bid three hearts,
Z three spades, A doubled and all
passed. A opened the king of hearts
and Y won the trick with the ace. How
should Z play the hand? Z must lead
the deuce of diamonds from Y's hand.
In order to be sure of two diamond
tricks, the suit must be led twice from
Y's hand. The only other sure reentry
is the queen of spades so that if dia
monds are to be led twice from Y's
hand, they must be led at trick two
and wl'.en the queen of spades is played ;
otherwise Z would be compelled lo lead
diamonds from his own hand for the
sure loss of a trick. Note this play for it
is one that comes up every day. Be sure
which hand you want in the lead and
why. When a hand is in the lead think
to yourself; "Can 1 lead a suit from
this hand to more advantage than 1 can
from the other? If so, must I do it now
or can 1 get the hand in later?" If you
wilt ask yourself these questions and
answer them correctlgbefore you plan
the play of the hand, you will save many
a trick. There is another point worthy
of considering in the play of this hand.'
At trick two i should play the deuce of
diamonds. B should win the trick with
the ace and lead a low heart. Z should
trump this trick and then lead three
rounds of trumps winning the third
trick in Y's hand with the queen. He
should then lead the four of diamonds
und finesse the jack. A should trump ,
this trick with his last spade and lead
another heart. Here is the other point '
of play fur if Z trumps this trick with
his last trump, he will never get another
trick for B still has another heart. Z
should discard the trey of clubs. On the
next lead of hearts, Z should trutm)
and lead the clubs.' As B has the are
king of clubs and no more hearts, Z
must make a club trick provided B has
discarded two diamonds, his best dis
card before he finds out A's cards. It is
an interesting hand and well worthy of
careful study.

Spades are trumps and Z is in the
ieaa. now can Y win lour ot the seven
tricks against any defense? Z should
lead the king of clubs and Y should
play the nine of clubs. B can cither (1)
win this trick with the ace of clubs or
(2) allow Z to hold the trick. Suptmse
B wins the trick with the ace of clubs.
If he now leads a heart or club, Z will
be able to trump the third round of
clubs in Y's hand and therefore make
four tricks. B is forced at trick two to
play the king and follow with the trey
uf spades. Y should play the queen of
spades on B's lead of the king and thus
ullow Z to win the third trick with the
seven of spades. A is forced to discard
on the second round of spades. If he
inscaros tne jack ot clubs, Z will put Y
in the lead with the ace of hearts and
lead the four of clubs through B's hand,
thus enabling Z to win two club tricks.
At trick three therefore A must discard
ihe live of hearts. Z should then lead
the six of clubs ar.d force A in the lead.
A must now lead hearts up to Z's hand
and YZ must win the balance of the
tricks. (2) Suppose B allows Z to hold
the first trick with the king of clubs. Z
should then lead the queen of hearts
and if A covers, play a low heart from
Y's hand. A can now lead (a) a spade
or (b) a club or (c) a heart. If A leads
the jack of spades, Y covers and B is
forced to win the trick. No matter
what he now plays, YZ must win three
more tricks. If A (b) leads the jack of
clubs, B is forced to win the trick or
allow Y to trump the third round. No
matter what he now plays, YZ must
win three more tricks. If A (c) leads the
five of hearts, Y should win the trick
with the ace and lead ihe four nf cliiKa
No matter what B does, YZ must now
win a spade and a club trick.
The foregoing isa very triclty' problem
and its variations very interesting and
puzzling. Work them all out for prac
tice. '
