Prosperous Year by, U. S. Chemical Industry New York--The year 1956 will be a year of almost unparalleled prosperity for the chemical industry, Chemical Weck, McGraw Hill publication, predicts in its current issue. In a forecast for each aspect of the industry, the magazine says the year ahead should be by continued hoom conditions in sales, earnings and expansion. Period of Gain The next 12 months should be a period in which the great majority of firms register a 15 per cent gain in 15-20 cent increase in profits, after taxes; and raise capital expenditures close to all-time records.

Confident Living By NORMAN VINCENT PEALE (Minister of New York's Marble Collegiate Church) THE DESIRE Some time ago F4 met an agency. As you know, such an debts from business firms and of the delinquents, usually on a Now I have always though be the type of men who get a kind other people.

But I was wrong been wrong about most of the collection man told me that he and to helping people. Explain, Business I suppose I looked startled because he went on to explain way of doing business. He would call on A man whose account with A department store, let us say, was long overdue and have A talk with him. "This is what owe, he would say, together let's try to find a way to do something about it." Then the debt-ridden man would begin to explain, perhaps, that he had an extravagant wife, his children had been that there in "the family. "I'm absolutely swamped with bills." was a frequent frus-1 trated explanation.

"I have no respect for myself any more, and I know that other. have no respect either. I'm sick about it all." After he had given the unhappy opportunity to pour out this woes, the collection agent would suggest: "What do you say-let's put the whole matter on the table and pray about it. Let's ask the Lord what to do about these debts." Willing to Pray This would usually 'so startle the debtor that he would be willins to pray. Then the agent would on: sce.

We'll get in touch with vour creditors and tell them they can something regularly. even if it's only a little. Using this system, we can get you out of financial trouble sooner than you think." The agent grinned at me.

The first hand was played very well by both Declarers. each in a different manner.

North-South system in were which playing an opening one no trump bid is made with or more honor tricks and 7 or more honor cards regardless of distribution. The two diamond response by North shows about honor tricks but denies holding a biddable major suit with four playing tricks. West led the spade 9 covered by the and to South's A.

The heart was played and then the heart covered by the to North's A. The spade 3 was played and, when East put in the 2, South played the 5 which held the trick as West played the 4. Dummy was entered with the club and the diamond finesse to the was taken by West's K. Thus Declarer mae just 9 tricks for the contract. At the other table in this team of four competition, the contract was the same but West led a heart to South's 10.

The spade A and were played as West dropped the 9 and East won with the East returned the diamond 10 and again South did not guess correctly as he put in the to West's K. West returned the diamond which was allowed to hold. At this point West is end played. He came out with a small club. Declarer took his A over East's and returned the at once.

When' West played low Declarer allowed this to hold the tricks. The heart w'as played as West covered with the to North's A. East starts to feel the squerze. He must discard a diamond i in order to retain the two spades. Now A heart' is returned to Declarer's and East is squeezed.

If he discards A spade, Dummy will make the spade and 8. If he discards a diamond. Declarer will make the diamond A and the long diarionds. He discarded a diamond and Declarer took the balance of the tricks to make 10 tricks and win the point.

Usually good pairs will have four of the other major suit when an opponent's bid is doubled and this bid is a major suit. Since South had three honors in spades he decided that he must show this holding at the two level rather than diamonds which would have to be at the three level. This bid worked out very well as North jumped to four spades. West led the heart to North's A. The diamond was played to East's A.

The heart was followed by a third heart which Declarer trumped with the 10. The spade was played and allowed to hold the trick. The spade was taken by West's A and a fourth heart played which Dummy trumped with the 9. Fortunately the spade picked up East and West as Declarer lost only three tricks to the spade heart and diamond A to make 10 tricks. Played at the other table, the bidding proceeded in like manner until it was South's turn to bid over two hearts.

He bid three diamonds at which suit the contract was played, making 10 tricks for a part score.

Personally I'm always thrilled by people who use their religion in such a practical manner in their daily work, especially those who see in it the opportunity to help persons in need. This lection agent told me. "Every human heing has the desire for self-respect and the respect and esteem of others. I like to think I can help restore self-esteem to those who have lost it, and the regard of their fellow men as well." Deep Desire It is indeed true that one of the deepest desires of human nature is to be well thought of, respected and loved. Whenever you hear anyone say, "I don't care what other people think about you can put fit down as a foolish and unrealistic statement.

We do care profoundly what others think of us. Lincoln, in his first speech to the voters of Sagamon County said, "I have no other ambition so great as that being truly esteemed by my fellow men." Nor is the method for gaining esteem A complicated one.

Start the engine to remove any remaining fuel. Gasoline left in the tank over winter may become stale, resulting in gumming of the carburetor. Remove the spark plug, squirt a few drops of oil in the spark plug hole and pull the starter through once or twice.

The spark plug should then be cleaned and replaced in the engine. The final stage in the winterizing of your power mower is to cover the machine to protect it from dust and from "adjustments" by children playing near it. Weidenmiller Magovern Co.
