At Bridge Club last week one North player probably had an opportunity to ruse this play to salvage a five no trump contract, and give him a near top instead of a very Iow score on the hand, West Dealer East and West vulnerable, 4A K3 3 A J10 4 • J 7 6 4. j 10 4 7N 4 9 .8 2 W E * KO5 V Q 9 7 2 4. 982 A 765 • K5 .44 A1084 4. A K7 5 (and correct) bidding was one no trump by North and three no trump by South, Assuming the normal opening lead of the two of hearts, North can make five odd des- pite any subsequent defense. Taking the first trick with the ten of hearts, North tries the Club finesse. West wins, and the heart return is taken by dummy's king. The next three tricks are won in sequence by' the ten, king and ace of clubs. Crossing to his own hand with a spade, North leads a small diamond. East plays the five (otherwise the declarer could make eleven tricks easily) and the ten holds the trick. At this point the declarer should see his opportunity, knowing that East's remaining cards are the Qx of hearts, the K. Q of diamonds and one other card, A spade lead to the ace takes out East's "other card," which proves to be the nine of spades, and the stage is set. The seven of diamonds is led to the ace, and a diamond return throws East on lead. He has to lead away from his Q 9 of hearts into North's A j.

W,inghtun, Out., Nov., 1949 Editor, A (Ivan(' c-Times : As a pupil in school, in the gloomily, smoke-ridden city of Glasgow, Se‘ land, I was ymi by various teachers, that there were four Seasons in a year; Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter; each, in turn holding the stage for a Period of about three months. I had no valid reason to disbelieve this staternent, and even the awfully unsteady and perilously treacherous behaviour of the weather in Scotland seemed to furnish sufficient corrobora- tion of the Teacher's testimony. So, on that particular subject, my teacher and. I .seemed be in perfect agree- ment, I had my doubts concerning tin fru th of other statentenIs vouchsafed me, particularly taking excepthm the one invariably tendered, that, in applying punishment to the palms of my highstr'ung hands, the operation gave to the giver thereof just as much pain as the receiver suffered. That avowal was, to me, obviously untrue, and affected my respect for the teach- er, denoting it to a very low level in,. deed, Now, regardingtA I e wollikrfol and unerring rotation of the f o ur questionably nominated seasons in the year yard, 1 presume that pupils in all of our Canadian Schools are fed I hi, same identical dope. But Canadian pupils are smart, very smart, and they arc daring te,.clainour for proof of the season's allegment. Indeed, they re- gard the proof usually advanced, though circumstantially intact, pct iq legitimately subject to discredit, Their Irani thins, never to be questioned, ap- prise I hem beyond doubt, that there are only two seastms in the year; those, inexorably being I lie Ilan Season and the Hockey Season. Not- withstanding the fact that there is • more or less brief period of time most ingloriously intervening between the .two, it is altogether Negligible, and even to think of it is treason of a form- idable order, It is nevertheless a had time, and strenuous efforts, T am pleased to learn, are being made to have it entirely eliminated.

Our lathes, dynamos, drill presses, farm combines, tractors, business machines, etc. are producing goods and services which earn dollars. These dollars provide food, clothing, medical care and other necessities which cotnribute to our security and high standard of living. Every single one of us, therefore, has a very personal interest in the flow of a steady supply of trained workers to industrial plants. These workers will operate machines which ate important to our way or life. We .should appreciate, then, the co-operative efforts of government, industry and labour hi the field of employee training. In schools and in factories our workers, young and old, are given the oppot turd ty to develop new and specific skills in every field of 'rosiness and industrial activity. For instance, every effort on the part of office workers to become pro- &lent in typing, filing, shorthand and secretarial work, will mean greater business effidener—will help to make Ontario A finer place in which to Jive and work, TIlE BREWING INDUSTRY (ONTARIO) 0101J 41TAP 10 -1*, 'Phone 64 WINGHAM qtOur home with "blue coalAmd-*the pIfFE8fle t 1,!
