"t, s
To save the lives of our Canadian Aghting-
men in action during the war, thousands of
Canadian civilians gave their blood to the
Red Cross. But in peace, too, Canadians die
when a blood transfusion would save them,
Whole blood and plasma are in short supply
in some parts of Canada there are no facilities
at all for an emergency transfusion,
In order to save the lives of Canadian men,
women and children, the Red Cross is estab.
lishing a Civilian Blood Transfusion Service.
By a system of voluntary blood donations, the
Red Cross'will supply every hospital in Canada
with Whole blood and plasma. Any patient in
need of a transfusion will receive one, free of
charge.
Your help is needed'to support this and other
valuable Red Cross services, The Red Cross
needs money ... your money. Money to
maintain Outpost Hospitals . .. to help correct
the deformities of little crippled children .
to maintain Red Cross Lodges, where next.4.
kin of disabled veterans may visit their loved
ones to bring relief in time of disaster:
All these things the Red Cross does ... won't
you help them keep up the good work?

and are commonthere and also in Con-
necticut, Starlings build their nests in
Crevices or buildings, rarely in trees.
They lay from four to she pale-blue,
unspotted eggs. They teed upon in-
sects. It was noticed that 'Wide birds
stay away from the Starlings, It is
known that they are quarrelsome and
are masters of the English Sparrow,
but to just what extent they will &M-
inter mote 4 our song Via in ease

the second trick, on which South's
proper play is the four, When. North
regains the lead With the ace of spad-
es (or South with the club queen), the
remainder.of the diamond suit is run.
The contract is thereby set at least one
trick, and is clown two if East fails to
trap the queen of clubs.
Either North or South can slip at
the second trick. If South plays the
ace, East certainly will shut out the
rest of the diamond suit by finessing
South for the club queen. On thin
other hand, if North leads back the
three of diamonds, he is the one wh.
deserves East's gratitude. Of the =-
revealed cards, the only.original diam-
ond holdings by North that would unto-
tify leading the three at the second
trick would be K 3, K J 6 3 or K
6 3, and in any of these circumstances
South's correct play would be the ace.
