The raise by North following South's pre-emptive bid, in- dicates the probability of a singletion spade in the West hand, possibly a void, making 6 clubs a sound bid. Since East and West can make 6 clubs or 5 hearts easily, and 6 spades goes down just two tricks, North and South, get a well merited good score by their sacrifice bidding, In actual plays most South players missed the 4 spades shut-out hid,. and the hand was played at 5 clubs at these tables, making six. After just one spade overcall by South, East and West should be. able to reach the slant in clubs, with careful bidding, but that is still another story. 111119112111M1111111115111111111E111111111111M111111112/111811111111111111111111E111111111111111111111111111111111111M11111111M il i F-- FE TILIzEut.

Shock or severe burns can result from touching such a wire. Never touch a fallen wire. Warn children not to go near fallen wires . . but do not risk a demonstration by trying to move one out 'of the way. It can be fatal! , Remember these three things if you discover an .electric wire on the ground or dangerously low: 1. Do not touch the wire under any circumstances: 2. Stay on guard and keep everyone away until Hydro men arrive. 3. Have your nearest Hydro office notified at once. Everything possible is done to keep Hydro wires safe in your com- munity. Some things ... winter storms and human folly ... are beyond control. When these things occur, Hydro asks your co-operation in being careful and in warning others. By doing so you may save a life.
