It will make life so much easier. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
19) No one should need to tell you that if you treat others in an arrogant, condescending manner, you aren't likely to score many points. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) Be careful not to poke your nose where it doesn't belong. If you do, you could find yourself involved in a development or argument loaded with serious complications. ARIES (March 21 -April 19) If you're in charge of the arrangements for a group involvement, be careful to keep those who don't get along as far away from one another as possible.
They could ruin everything. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Don't wait for opportunities to simply drop in your lap. We all have to work for the chance of making something come together, and you're no different. Make something happen. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Even if a loss won't hurt you that much, don't gamble on a financial situation about which you know little.
Research is needed in order to make a smart bet. CANCER (June 21-July 22) It's a no-win situation if you and your mate take opposing positions on an issue without flexibility in your thinking. If you want to win, be prepared to yield. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Your ideas and concepts are not likely to rise to your usual standards and common sense, owing to a bit of fanciful thinking.
Abide in the realm of reality, and avoid all wishful thinking. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) It's always smart to be extremely businesslike in all of your commercial dealings, but it is essential at this time. The larger the amount involved, the more important it is to check the finer points.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) A great deal of what is discussed with some social contacts will never come to pass, mostly because no one will take things seriously enough. Stick to doing business with strangers. SCORPIO (Oct.
24-Nov. 22) Those with whom you associate may try to dump their responsibilities on you if you're not careful. Be helpful, but don't allow your colleagues to take advantage of your good nature. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec.
21) When it comes to self-discipline, your grade might not make its usual high marks. However, excess in either direction will be bad, so strive for the middle of the road at all times. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) It's always wise to be mindful of your demeanor, but it may be more important at this time.
Whether you encourage it or not, the spotlight is likely to be focused on you wherever you 9- Bemice Osol writes a daily horoscope for Newspaper Enterprise Association.

When a bridge player counts his tricks, his whole success level will turn around.
This week, let's look at a selection of counting deals. How would you plan the play in four spades after West leads the heart jack? Whenever you are in a suit contract, first count your losers. Assuming you have more trumps than the dummy, look at your 13 cards and take dummy's honors into account. Here, you should see one loser in each suit: three aces and the third round of hearts. Then count your winners.
In this deal, you have nine: five spades, two hearts and two clubs. Do you concede down one? Not yet! You cannot avoid losing tricks to the three aces, but you can discard dummy's heart loser on the third round of clubs. Then you can ruff your heart loser on the board, which will both eliminate that loser and gain an extra trump trick. Sounds simple, but you must be careful. Suppose you take the first trick in your hand and play a club.
West will duck that trick, win the next club, and lead another heart. You will take that on the board and have no immediate entry to your hand to cash the winning club. Since you are establishing a club trick in your hand, keep an entry to your hand. Win the first trick on the board and call for the club king, the honor from the shorter side first. If West ducks, play another club.
Win the second heart, discard dummy's last heart on the high club, and cruise home. 1 Gloomy 2 for the money 3 Muchacha, for short 4 Capsized, with "over" 5 Latch onto 6 ISP of note 7 Put away THE BORN LOSER 8 Fell to 9 Japanese port 10 Cradles 13 Get comfy (2 wds.) 19 NASA counterpart rWIAMD0Y0U Wc r50X, GLADYS-Vs 1) THINK OF IT? i gjl) THIS C0FFC6 ISN'T 0 -A AA I MCUPOFTErV AA fi I I i IS ill 21 Mark's successor 24 La Bolivia 25 Actress Meyers 26 QB org. 27 Sleeveless top 28 Coll. credits 30 Mil rank. 31 Ginza buy 32 Rapper Tone 33 Brillo rival 35 RN assistants 36 Cloud-seeding compound 39 Pitcher handle 40 Maxed out 41 Blender button 42 Willow shoot 43 Rumpled 44 Pulpit 45 Blarney Stone site 47 Old Italian currency 48 Kind of portrait 51 Modicum 53 Herriot, e.g.
