On the bid ing it was obvious that East had tarted with at least seven hearts this would leave West with Only to and it was vital that Declarer move West s remaining heart and hereby remove his Only Safe Exi Ard. After winning with the hear be Declarer should have crossed to Lummy s High a Spade King and Ruffet second heart. He then hould have drawn Trumps after which he should have led his single on Diamond. West would have to win with the Ace or give up any Lope of defeating the contract after winning West would not be ble to make a return that could prevent Declarer from taking every remaining trick. A Diamond return would give Declarer a free finesse and permit the discard of two clubs t club return would be equally Atal since it would enable the de Larer to avoid the loss of a club pick. The club Jack for example would be won in Dummy with the King and Declarer then could Inesse against East s Queen. A Low Lub Lead by West would trap East s Queen.

Mrs Malcolm Macgregor was chairman an almost capacity audience a the Brandon City Hall auditorium gave a Hearty Welcome to the various groups and mayor f. H Young extended greetings from the City. The festival was officially opened by b. J. Hales. I liked the play said mrs Chamberlain of the Bride by the Brandon group. The cast Wen through it with a definite feeling for Pace so far As the speech a she Felt however tha they had not carried out with Ges Tares and movement the proper effect. Your voice can t do one thing and your body Shi warned. Open scenes weak mrs. Chamberlain Felt that the players were not audible enough in the opening scenes. The first speech by the maid Del should have set the Tempo but it did not however she liked the maid s performance. The Mother Eleanor m had made a Good Entrance and she had a Good voice but the adjudicator Felt there was a Sligh Lack of sincerity in her work. The Bride Mary be the Tempo of the play at her firs Entrance but she should have hat More variation in her voice. Liked the the French dressmaker Connie Morganstern but her fit of tantrums had no gone off As Well As it should. The character playing of miss Sparrow Beatrix disappointed the adjudicator. She Felt that what so was trying to create was Sincen but what happened was. Burlesque instead of an eccentric old lady. The Bride s sister Anita Smith had been too aloof about the play Norah pen Tori directed Winnie Kosis group a very very difficult play t said mrs. Chamberlain o thirst by the Winnipegosis dra Matic society. It is outmoded and the cast was very Brave to do it the plot a grim drama that employed Only three characters had to do scheming Nobleman who tries to Poison a prisoner Only to fall into the trap of his own Mak ing. The adjudicator was pleased with the simple setting a Dungeon was example of wha done with a Bare stage she said. The prisoner lord Shandon Clep had been an extremely difficult part to play since he had to remain in one spot chained throughout the action. Although he handled his assignment Well he would have done better voice training. This actor needs to get his stride said the adjudicator of the villainous Duke Shafte William he did not do so Well on his entrances As he , and did some Nice things with his voice. I liked his said mrs. Chamberlain when speaking of his death scene. You need courage to fall Flat on your face on the stage. B. A. Oakden directed. Mrs. Chamberlain also had Praise of the last play of the evening heaven on Earth by the Kenora dramatic society. She had particular Praise for mrs. T. D.

She had voice by she was too apologetic when so should have been defiant and Shi inside the the Young Man was not Vita enough and his movements should have been More flowing. Ellen Ratchford played a Pace had been too slow at times but mrs. Chamberlain had particular Praise the Home looked very there will be matinee and.

At the last session of the legis nature the government announced to intention of taking Steps to in ure a greater degree of Security if tenure for Farmers. It has been a cognized that the Farmers Credi ors arrangement act of the do minion parliament and the debt adjustment legislation of the prov nce were designed primarily to meet the needs of an immediate and it was a temporary situation. Events have proved that some permanent form of legislation is ceded that will on the one hand Ive to the deserving and Indus rious Farmer some reasonable As Urance of tenure irrespective of fluctuations in crop yields and times and will on the other hand Reserve the rights of legitimate editors. Basically it is assumed hat both debtor and creditor must assume part of the loss occasioned in such instances. Mrs. Chamberlain characterization.
