happened, the pair that did the
worst bidding got the best score.
Everybody but one North play
er started with 2-Spades, that
other one with 6-Spades, which
West doubled and defeated. In
most cases the procedure was
North 2-Spades, East 3-Dia
monds, South 3-Hearts, North
3- South either 4-Clubs or
4- and North 6-Spades,
which West doubled and North re
doubled.
At one table, over East’s 3-
Diamonds, South passed and
North rebid his spades eventually
to land in 6-Spades. At another
South doubled the 3-Diamonds
and North went on with spades
to grand slam. The North-South
top came where North doubled
3-Diamonds, South left it in and it
was beaten two tricks.

Don’t ask me to tell you exactly
what this all means. I suppose in
the course of time I could find out,
but I am by no means sure from ex
perience that I would know what it
means.
The doctor seems to think that the
examination in 1939 is greatly su
perior to the examination in 1908.
He says “that the goal of a future
science of internal medicine is the
complete understanding of the
mechanism of all diseases.”
Studied by Sections
He notes that in the examination
of the patient in 1939, the patient
was studied by the division of phys
iology of the circulation and of the
physiology of respiration, which
consists of two sections. The chemi
cal study was conducted by five sec
tions in the hospital. The constitu
tional clinic had two sections, which
consisted of one to study the physi
cal condition pf the patient and one
to study the mental attitude.
To my mind, however, the one doc
tor who studied the patient in 1908
had a better understanding of the
human being who lay in bed sick
‘than all the nine sections which
studied the patient in 1939.
After all, the most sensitive in
strument for examining a human
being is the mind and the under
standing of another human being.
All the instruments in the wofid.
and all the laboratories are not
going to supplant the doctor at the
bedside.
