The Play.
South Has the opening lend and plays the king of diamonds. The dummy goes down with a singleton diamond. South Agures that the club suit will probably quickly sot, The only chaner South has to de- Beat the contract is to kill the declarer's re-entries into dummy. Therefore, South continues with The queen of diamonds, forring dummy to ruff with the five spades, the declarer dropping the jack of diamonds.
The nee of clubs was played from dummy, the declarer dropping

queen. This was followed with the jack of clubs. North covering with the king and declarer trummistie
The declarer led the king of trump, which South won with the are and then South led his jack of hearts which North won with the king,
North realizes what his partner is attempting to do so he deliber ately lends his nee of hearts, which will fore the declarer to tramp in dummy with the nine of spatles, The ten of clubs is led from dummy, the declarer discarding The ton of diamonds, South trump- in with the six of spades. South Hearts the nine of hearts. Dummy Trumps with the ten of spades, de- larer yaying the seven of hearts.
A small club is then led from dummy, declarer trumping with the jack of spades. He then picks | [up South's other trump with his queen of spades and then de clarer's given of hearts and four of spades take the last two tricks, but by forcing the dummy to ruff, North and south have defeated the contract one trick.

During 1931 we negotiated mortgages amounting to 19.194,868 on property valued at €35,550,000, It will be thus seen that the amount loaned was less than 54% of the market value of the property, leaving a margin of security wide enough to cover the most remote contingency. Of this $19,194,868 of mortgages, 11,915,311 were assigned to investors. The average rate of interest was 9.33%. and
our commissions amounted to $146,825, or 0.765%. It will be clearly seen by these figures that on the basis that this company operates, it can easily afford to pay 8% interest on the volume of the business of 1931 and yet make a profit of. $399,525.00 on the These debentures mortgage department alone! have an additional security of $5,000,000 capital.
During the past 20 years, we have negotiated mortgages amounting to more than $100,000,000 and so accurate has our judgment been that not one cent of interest or principal has ever been lost.

And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all right, this do, and thou shalt "Science and Health, with Key to sick and thy soul, and with all the strength.live."
