Discard the Jack That's the Key to Solving Last Week's End Play A typographical error which plac ed the four of diamonds in both the West and the North hands in last week's bridge puzzle is your best excuse if you failed to get the so lution. But master players .; just substituted a small diamond for one of the fours and solved the rprob lem like this: - South leads the Ace of diamonds and drops the Jack of "Diamonds on it from North's hand. This is the key to the whole problem; np other play will work. South then leads a spade, trumps it in North. Then leads a heart from North, following this with the Ace of Clubs. When the heart is led from North, West is squeezed. When the Ace of clubs is led, East is squeezed. If West surrenders his Queen of diamonds to protect his clubs, the small diamond can be led from North, finessing East's 10, B, 6. If West discards a club, the deuce in dummy is made good. If East and West throw away their spades, trying to protect diamonds and clubs, , the ten of spades will be set up in South's hand, to be reached by a lead to the King of diamonds. '. ' ' v ...

The members of the com mittee then laid off the bounds of the present city of Raleigh named after the great Englishman, Sir Walter Raleigh, who tried faith fully to found a colony1 on the coast of North Carolina. State Capitol At the same time the city was laid off, a committee was appointed to have a State House built within the city. Work was begun in 1792 and the Legislature met in the finished house in 1794. This house was built of brick made within the limits of the city. This building was used until it was de stroyed by fire on June 21, 1831. At once a bill was introduced to erect a new capitol, but the bill failed due to the fact that there was strong sentiment favorable to the removal of the Capitol to Fay etteville. At the session of 1832, the Assembly voted, to rebuild on the old site and appropriate $50,000 for that purpose. This amount was no more than enough to lay the foundation. Each subsequent session of the Assembly until 1840, when the building was completed at a total cost of $531,674,46, made additional appropriations. The columns and entablature of the building are Grecian Doric, copied from the Temple of Miner va, commonly called the Parthenon, which was erected in Athens about 500 B. C. It is judged by building experts as a gem of architecture. The State Flower There is: no official State flower of North Carolina. However, the ox-eyed daisy has been accepted by common consent as our State flower. The State Song ' By. an act of the General As sembly of 1927, the song known as "The Old North' State" was legally adopted as the official song of the State of North Carolina. This song is given below: THE OLD NORTH STATE Carolina !

Hurrah! the good Old North State. ! Tho' she envies not others, their merited glory, Say whose name stands the fore most, in liberty's story, Tho' too true to herself e'er to crouch to oppression, Who can yield to just rule a more loyal submission, i i Then let all those who love us, love the land that we live in, As happy a region as on this side of heaven, Where plenty and peace, love and joy smile before us, Raise aloud, raise together the heart thrilling chorus. Other Significant Fact North Carolina claims the honor of being the birth place of three presidents of the United Stated: Andrew Jackson, James K. Polk and Andrew Johnston, the latter having been born in the city of Raleigh. North Carolina has three nick names, "Old North," "Turpentine," and "Tar Heel."
