Contract Bridge
THE ONE CHANCE
IN THE early days of auction
bridge, after whist players had be
come accustomed to the added op
portunities for fine play afforded
by the exposed hand, the following
valuable rule was promulgated.
When you have more than a single
ton of partner’s suit, a singleton
of another suit and a certain trump
trick accompanied by one or more
low trumps fit only for ruffing, if
you have the opening lead, lead
the singleton, instead of partner’s
suit. Having won your trump
trick, lead partner’s suit, so that
he may give you the desired ruff.
Today’s deal shows how the lead
er’s partner also may utilize this
valuable play at times.

Bidding went: West, 1-Club,
second hand; East, 1-Spade, using
the “one-over-one” forcing tactics;
South, 2-Diamonds; West,
3-Spades, to make certain that
bidding did not die before reaching
a game contract; North, 4-Dia
monds; East, 4-Spades; South
passed, having too many losers to
bid further, as his side .was • vul
nerable.

Modern Life Made Easy
For Mother f Doctor Finds
By LOGAN CLENDENING, M. D.
THERE WAS a saying in the
days of our fathers and grand
fathers that, “You can't take care
of a baby and do anything else."
That of course, has been dis
proved in thousands of instances
by the modem day mother who
now earns part of the family In
come.
But in the days of our grandfath
ers and fathers, of even very recent
date, things were hot made so easy
for the mother as they are now.
Nobody guaranteed good milk, arid
even if the milk came from a good
dairy, it had to be pasteurized and
prepared at home. The formulas
were unnecessarily cumbersome.
Nowadays if she wishes, the young
mother can buy canned milk that
is every bit as good as fresh, and
all she has to do is put the water
back into it.
Canned vitamin foods and canned
pureed vegetables for the only
slightly older baby lessen the
household burden.
Play pens and other safety de
vices, help to let the mother do
something besides watch the child
every minute.
Ihe clothes question has been
greatly simplified—more sensible,
simpler, and less clothes, blankets
that zipper around the neck and
arms and can’t be kicked off at
night, knitted sheets for the crib
that do not have any chill and do
not need to be ironeq. Many mpd
ern parents do not know what it Is
to he waked up at night.
. Laundry Question Solved
Even the diaper and laundry
question is solved nowadays in
most cities by a diaper service
which supplies surgically sterilized

supported his call, South led the J
of hearts. North’s Ace won the
trick. North could see just two
added tricks on normal play— a
trump trick and a diamond trick,
provided South held the Ace of
diamonds. The sole chance of de
feating the game contract of de
clarer appeared to be to lead his
lone club, then when he gained
entry with a trump, to lead a dia
mond to partner and be given a
return ruff • North led his lone
club, which declarer took with the
10. Doubtless East knew what
was about to happen, but he could
do nothing about it. The return
lead of the Q of spades went to
North’s Ace. A low diamond was
won with South’s Ace. The club
return was ruffed, and the con
tract was down a trick.

Above is a hand where West
played a contract of 4-Hearts,
doubled by North. West lost two
spade tricks, then ruffed a lead of
that suit. To avoid guessing how
to play trumps, declarer led the K
of diamonds, as if he wanted to
crossruff' the hand. It was de
clarer’s only chance to avoid
guessing. Misinterpreting de
clarer’s tactics, North led back a
trump, enabling South’s Q to be
picked up, and insuring fulfillment
of contract.
. diapers, wrapped in cellophane, fur
i nishes a canvas bag for the soiled
ones, and makes an exchange three
i times a week. I should think the
mothers of this country would
1 elect the man who had that idea
i president of the United States,
i since there seems to be so much
• complaint about the present candi
dates.
The humble subject of diapers,
; unmentionable as it usually is ex
cept among the real workers of
the world, has, however, been the
subject of a good bit of scientific
research.
I find the report of Ruth How
ard Sayers, in the American Jour
nal of Nursing. She took up the
subject of diaper sizes. It must
be a great puzzle to beginning
mothers to find that diapers run in
sizes, and even more puzzling to
find different stores recommending
different sizes. A Boston store
representative says,. “This is a
20x40 city," while the San Fran
cisco merchant reports that her
town is a 27x27 square. Yet there
can’t be so very much difference
between Boston and San Francisco
babies.
If the triangular fold is used
(and I understand that it is quite
out of fashion) two sizes will be
needed —one for the new-bom and
one for a little later on. With the
use of the oblong or Swedish fold,
it is usually possible to-use one
size for this very interesting pei
ripd in the human being’s life—the
standard 20x40 inches size. The
panel fold, a quite recent innova
tion, consists in an extra thickness
center panel, and can be easily ad
justed as the baby grows by sim
bly varying the width of the panel,
