Third Hand Play-No Trump

Both in those cases in which third
hand wins the opening trick and in
those cases in which third hand subse-
quently obtains the lead he is in doubt
as to whether he should return his
partners lead or open new suit. There
are two general classes into which
these situations may be divided. to wit:
Those in which third hand holds suit
which he considers strong enough to
warrant him in abandoning his part
ner's suit and those in which the
strength disclosed by dummy is such
as to deter him. Let US consider these
classes under the headings Adverse
StrengthJ and switching Suits
Adverse Strength
often the cards held by the dummy
in the suit opened by your partner at
no trump are such that it is manifest
that there is nothing to be gained by
the lead, as, for instance,
when the dummy hand must win three
tricks in the suit and in such case
third hand is justified in trying to bring
in another suit. particularly if his hand
contains one or more re-entries, but in
view of the fact that you know that
your partner has opened his longest
suit you should be very careful to con-
slider whether the loss in returning his
suit is not more apparent than real.
For instance, II your partner opens
fourth best, which you win with queen
and the ace and jack are left in
dummy, it is evident that if you return
the suit dummy must win two tricks.
Many players therefore consider this
sufficient to warrant them in switch
ing. However, a little thought will
demonstrate that the reasoning is not
sound. Except in those rare instances
in which the dealer held originally only
hof ic
are only anticipating what the dealer
can do at any time. In other words,
the dealer will win these two tricks
anyway whenever he leads the suit. On
the other hand, should the leader have
two cards of re-entry the prompt re-

Mr.. Whittet's Telling Facts.

Oratory may sometimes sweep off its
feet an audience, but the binder Irvine
proposition met failure in the assembly
chiefly it is believed, because of the
concrete presentation of hard facts
made by Chairman Whittet of the COM
mittee on claims. His was discussion
built up with strong statistics relative
to the operation of Irvine plants in other
prisons; staggering financial invest
ments elsewhere and ultimately certain
wherever such an enterprise is under
taken; of the questionable fiscal results
in some places and the large stocks of
raw material on hand and finished prod
uct unsold in others; of the hazard a
state encounters In dealing with a ca
PRECIOUS market; of the menace to
health involved in Irvine making espec-
ially under prison auspices, and, of the
unsuitability of the business to a situa-
ton such as ours, where less than 100
convicts could be employed out of a to-
tai of four or five times that number
for which work must be found. Such
an assembling of forceful facts, which
to considerable extent have seemed
beyond effective refutation, must prove
as it did, most serious obstacle for
the earnest proponents of the plan to
overcome. Mr.. Whittet spoke strongly,
clearly and with the evident sincerity OF
conviction. Indeed, he voiced the undi-
vided opinion of the conscientious and
intelligent committee on claims that
previously had been convinced, doubt
less against its own will, that twlne
making by convicts is perilous exper-
iment from a financial standpoint fol

Saloonists Must Publish Request.

By recently enacted law of the Wis
consin assembly, all those who make
application for a license to sell intoxi-
cants must publish such application in
the newspapers. The application, after
being made in writing, giving the loca-
ton of the premises where the business
is to be located and the name of the
bondsmen, and filing it with the clerk
of the town, village or city, fifteen days
before the granting of the license, must
be prior to the granting of the license,
published in daily paper printed in
the town where the license is asked for.
The notice must be printed at least
three times successfully. Where there
is no such daily paper published, the
notice must be printed at least once in
a weekly paper lie there is no paper
published in the place where the license
is asked, three copies of the applica-
ton must be posted in three conspicu-
Gus places of the town. At the time
of filing the application the applicant
shall pay sixty cents per folio for the
first insertion and thirty-fve cents per
folio for each subsequent insertion to
pay for the publication. The law is
now in effect, having become operative
