When the declaration doubled Is @ suit bid he is frequently in position to support any one of the other three suits, but not knowing which suit is better adapted to the play of the combined hands, he asks the part ner to bid his longest or best suit indicating at the same time his own ability to support such a bi1. or if unable to support such bid. or if unable to support the take out. he has an escape bid" in re- serve which he will bid on the sec- ond round.
 Further, the partner Is urged m the absence of an Intervening bid by the partner of the original bid- der to respond to the informative double regardless of how weak his hand may be. The weaker the hand the more imperative the take-out. There Is only one in- stance in which the partner would be Justified in passing; namely ability to defeat the original bid for a gain estimated to be greater than that which would result from playing the hand at any declara- tion.
 For instance, should the opening bid be one Heart, West doubles, North passes and East holds:
 spadcs-S.e; Hearts--K.J-9.s-5-2; Diamonds--K-3; Clubs--7.5-3 East could very readily pass the Double and his message to West would be: Partner, can prevent South from making his contract" This is termed a penalty pass" converting an informative double into penalty double.
 Therefore, with the exception of making penalty pass, partner of the player who made the informa- tive double, no intervening bid having been made by an adversary, should respond in the order shown below. These responses are divid- ed into two divisions. minimum responses and strength responses.

LONDON, Oct. 21.-Mean street lace one another where Mrs. En- fly Purton lives.
 Mist spreads grime underfoot. Whisps of yellow smoke scribble poverty from the chimney pots of intending ranks of two-story brick cottages in London's east end.
 Nine years ago her husband was 30, brawny boilermaker working every day. His plant closed Ever since his work has been in dribbles two weeks since April.
 The dole keeps Mrs. Purton, her husband, four of their children and puts roof over the fifth.
 Before the dole was cut, and be- fore England went off the gold standard, it came to 34 shillings a little less than $8.50 a week
 The new budget will slice off four shillings. Food prices will rise to meet the new exchange.
 Mrs. Purton must make the ends meet, somehow.
 T don't see any way we can cut down except food"
 They live in three rooms-two bedrooms and a living room, din ing room and kitchen combined into one. There isn't any bath. Public baths cost four cents.
 Their rent is 10 shillings 2 pence week, about $250 at the old ex- change
 Only one room has heat, fire place. This costs about 60 cents a week.
 You have to have bit of fire, with the children" she explains, half defensively.
 She cooks with gas and their lights are gas, too. They turn them off every night at g o'clock We can't afford more than that" she says. The gas costs about 35 cents a week
 They don't buy any clothes. From her husbands two weeks work she saved IS shillings, bought shoes for two children.
