The story, of this hand starts and
ends with North's play on the first
trick, to which South's natural lead
is the two of hearts.
With the hand exposed it is easily
seen that the declarer will make two
tricks in hearts and his contract—if
North comes up with his ace on the
first trick, whereas the play of a
smaller heart holds East to one trick
in that suit, and defeats the game. In
this situation North should retain
Ms ace until it can be used to overtake
West's queen,
In bridge, as elsewhere, there are
exceptions to almost all rules, but a
good general principle worth remem-
bering is that aces are too valuable
to be used in capturing small spots. if
there is any possibility of putting them
to—better service.

PARKING METERS
The .parking of ears is becoming
quite a problem in all towns ami tit-
le, and in the latter, the parking met-
ers are becoming quite common, and
while it relieves the congestion on
heavily trafficed streets. it is not pup-
ular to the majority of the motorists.
Several towns have been consicler-
ing this means of relieving the situa-
tion, but front reports front Hanover,
the one town in this district to fall
for the idea, it has not proven satis-
factory.

The Hanover Town Council held a
special session last week to deal with
a petition signed by 78 business men,
asking for their removal. The Cotmeir
listened to their request and deeided
to ask for their removal after May
13th.
The prosperity of a town depends
to a large extent on the patronage of
the farmers, anti 'anything done to
discourage their visits to town will
affect all uterclutants.
The creating of parking areas as
close as possible to the business area,
we believe, is a far better way of hand-
ling the situation than by even having
parking restrictions. •
We have' a card in our office headed
"What is a Customer" and the first
answere covers this situation. "A
'customer is not dependent on you--
yon are dependent upon him."
