Here art that were played in a recent tournament, held in New York City, that illustrate these points very well: Problem No. 12 Hearts K, J, 7, 5,3 ciubs 9,8, i.i.i Diamonds none ,. Spades Q, 9, 3 --hfh?tn'9,f' Hearts-- 10. 8, 2 j y i Club. Q,i felfc8'3 A z B; sDidT.-TAJ'10'- 9'M'a Hearts Q . Clubs A, K.J Diamonds K, 7, S Spades K, 10, 8, 7, 6, 2 No score, first game. (1) Suppose Z )ids one spade and A bids one no :rump. What should V bid? (2) Sup-pose Y bids two hearts and B bids three iiamonds, what should Z bid? (3) Sup-pose Z passes, A bids three no trump jnd all pass, what should Y open? (4) Suppose Y opens the three of spades, what should Z play? Think over these various questions and decide whether or not the suggested bidding is correct. An analysis of the hand and of what happened at various tables in the tournament game will be given in the next article. Problem No. 13 Hearts A, Q, 5, 3, 2 Clubs Q, 3 i Y t Diamonds 7,5 jA B: Spades K, Q, 9,5. i t Z t No score, first game. Z dealt and bid one club, A bid one heart, Y passed and B bid two diamonds. (1) If Z now bid two spades, what should A do? (2) If A end Y passed, B bid three diamonds and.Z passed, what should A now do? Ar - naJysis of the bidding of this hand will be given in the next article. Answer to ProbLm No. 10 '. . Hearts A, K, 0,9 i Clubs A, 8, j Diamonds K, 7, 3 Spades Q, 9, 8 Hearts - 7 4, 2 Hearts J, 10, 6, 3 Clubs 6, 5, 2- - : v . rinh.i7 t hi Hearts 8, 5 Clubs Q, 10, 9' Diamonds 8, 6, 2 Spades A, K. J, 10,4 No score, rubber game. Z dealt and id one spade. A and Y passed and B loubled. (Informatory). Z, the dealer, ith a very strong hand, bid two ipades over the double and all passed. A opened the jack of diamonds and B were thus able to win the first .hree tricks. At the fourth trick, B. tho was in the lead, led the five of pdcs. The problem is for Z to so play he hand that he will win the balance f the tricks against any defense. ; Soiutiim: The point of this hand is t Z to win the first spade trick in Y's land and then play the ace of clubs. The play of the ace of clubs is the key play of the hand for it enables Z to lead out the remaining trumps. Y must make two discards and the play of the ace of dubs enables Y to discard his two remaining clubs. B must make four discards. He can discard one dia-mond and two clubs, but what will his fourth discard be? If he'discards a third club, Z's queen of clubs will be good. If he discards a heart, Y's hearts will be good. Whatever B discards, therefore, on the ninth trick, Y Z must win the balance of the tricks. I - - t Answer to Problem No. 11 Hearts nova ! Clubs A, K ' ' Diamonds A, 5, 4 , . Spades A, Q, 5 7 !A B : Eian?o7d.7-i'lSd- 4 spades --i K, J, 6 s Z , Spades 9 Hearts Q, T Clubs 9,8 Diamonds 3, 2 Spades 3, 2 There are no trumps and Z is in the eid. How can Y Z win all of the tricks against any defense? Solution : Z should lead the queen and iack of hearts. A and B follow suit and Y should discard the ace and king of rhibs. Z should now lead the nine of clubs. A should discard the seven of diamonds and Y the four of diamonds. Z should now lead the eight of clubs. A can do one of two things: (1) dis-card the jack of diamonds or (2) the tight of spades. (1) Suppose A discards tlm iark of diamonds. Y should discard the five of spades. Z should now lead ! the deuce of spades, finesse the queen in Y s hand and thus win the balance of the tricks with the ace of spades and the ace and five of diampnds. (2) gup- - pose A "discards the eight of spades Y ' should discard the five of diamonds. Z should now lead thj deuce of spades, j finesse the queen and thus will win the balance of the tricks with the ace and five of spades and the ace of diamonds. It is a pretty little problem in the forcing of discards and should be care-fully ctudierl. DIRT IN HEATING PLANT BIG CAUSE OF FUELWASTE Giant Suction Cleaner Takes 22 Bushels of Soot From Single System. tauny a ruefully look-i- n at the smoked walls and smudged drapes In her borne during the cold months, makes op her mind never to go through Another winter of bouse cleaning drudgery, occasioned by a furnace. Investment of the price of oue ton of coal, or less. In a thorough cleaning of the heullng plant before the heating sea-so-starts will save the price of sev-- eral tons of fuel during the winter, the Holland Institute of Thermology of Holland, Mich., advises. And It will save the housewife the worry, drudjrery and extra denning expense that are caused by a dirty beutlng plant. in sunnort of this statement the In- - atltute's heating engineers cite tests recently completed by the United States Bureau of Standards which revealed that of an Inch of oot In the heating chamber ana other ports of the central hentlnn plant reduces the net efficiency of the . system 28 per cent, and a quartet Inch coating of soot, 43 per cent. The removal of these soot coating means a corresponding Increase In the heating efficiency of the plant, with resultant fuel savings. Also, s rflrtT heatlna plant means Just so much more grime to be tracked up atatra and extra work for the bouse wife In sweeping and cleaning rugs and other fabrics. The extent of this bouse cleaning burden where the heat-ing plant Is not clean Is Indicated by the fact that ns much as 22 bushels of soot nnd dirt have been extracted from the beating system of a single borne. In times gone by, cleaning the beat-ing plant was always a messy Job, but today It la a Job that la done quick-ly, quietly and effectively by a vacu-- cleaner that comes to the house en aa automobile truck, equipped with a fan driven by a motor, a huge can-vas bag and several sections of flex-ible piping. The powerful auction of the fan aa effectively cleans out the heating plant, Including the chimney, aa the household vacuum cleaner 4 cleans the nigs.
