Blackwood response
bv North showed
South two aces, he could count
thirteen sot-up tricks, ar.d used
his king-a^ker of 5-No Trumps
just for the fun of it. intending to
bid the 7-N*o Trumps when North's
response came around to him. But
West was having some fun. too,
and also knew his scoring Seeing
the grand slam looming^ up. he
didn't care if South did redouble.
It turned out that South scored
640 for making 5-Xo Trumps re
doubled. plus 400 apiece for two
overt ricks, total 1.440 West beat
him out of 300 points, as the slam j
bonus would have been 1.500,
seven club tricks 140. plus 100
honors, a total of 1.740, the game
bonus, of course, not being influ
enced
An elaborate table shows what
to do with such doubles Bidding
and making a grand slam counts
more than redoubling in all cases
except when No Trump is dou
bled at four Bidding and making
a small slam counts less than re
doubling in all cases except when
a minor suit bid is redoubled at
the five level. Try to remember
these rigtues

'■ occurs, giantism or a
lition called "acromeg
'^'s. If th? gland begins
excessive secretion before growxn
ir. puberty is completed, the result
is giantism with human specimens
nine feet tall. If the excessive se
cretion begins, however, after the
long bones are set, growth docs
not begin again but the condition
of acromegaly occurs. In acro
megaly the bones of the hands,
feet and jaws begin to grow—
which is a form of giantism.
Stimulating Growth
What can be done to stimulate
growth in those of low stature?
There are undoubtedly forms of
human dwarfism due to deficient
pituitary secretion and a specific
growth hormone has been extract
ed from the gland and can be ad
ministered to such patients. It
must be begun, however, before
growth tendency has ceased and in |
practice it is not easy to find prop- |
er cases so early. Although now '
that we know the possibilities
more cases will undoubtedly be
discovered in time for good results.
Some cases arc recorded in which
increase of several inches in
height has been obtained.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
T. G., Detroit, Mich. — "Could
you tell me how long scarlct fever
germs live? One of my children
had scarlet fever six weeks ago
and is well now. Is there any dan
ger of the other children taking
it?"
Answer — Scarlet fever has a
long quarantine period. There is
danger of a convalescent patient
giving it to others up to a period
of six weeks after all symptoms
have suosided. This is entirely
different from measles in which
disease it is safe to allow the pa
tient to mingle with others within
a day or two.
M. S., Honuiam, Wash.—"Will
the taking of table salt cause
hardening of the arteries?"
Answer—No, many opinions to
the contrary, salt does no harm.
The body requires a certain
amount a day, and all foods con
tain some salt. Vegetables contain
less than other foods and salt al
lows us to enjoy many vegetables
that without it would be unpal
atable. ;
