The Bidding

The Bidding
 Under the one over one system. South would start the contracting with one club. West would pass and North would bid one diamond. This is a one bid over a one bid and requires partner to re-bid Sonth has a rninimnm hand and swut1d respond with. one no trump. Worth would go to two no trump and South, having all four suits protected, would be justified in go- ing to three no trump.
 The Play
 & It is Vests opening lead. His longest and strongest suit is hearts. They should be opened fourth best, Therefore, the five spot is the proper play. Before playing to this trick, let us look around. The declared can zee five sure dia- smond tricks. three clubs and one heart trick = nine in all. The one thing he must be afraid of is spades.
 A great deal has been written about the hold-up at no trump. but here Is one case where the shoItl-up should not be applied. IT South, the declarer, allows the heart trick to ride into his jack, East will win with the king and Immediately shift to q spade. and you can see that the opponents Will run off six spade tricks and "a heart, and the declarer will be down three tricks at three no trump. The proper way to plan the hand is to go right in with that ace of hearts and lead small dia- mond from dummy, and while 1t Is generally the ruie when you hold nine of suit. with the two top swings, that you should not finesse, the declarer must play this hand absolutely safe and take no chances on three diamonds to the queen being in the East hand. He should finesse the ten of dia- monds, which West will win with the queen. Now, regardless Q, what West leads, the declarer is bound to make his game.
 Supposing West were to shift to the ace of spades, East would pla ythe encouraging seven and the declared would play the ten West would then have to continue with the queen of spades, which the decIarer would win with the kl0R. The OeCldTeT WOulu thch lead the ace of diamonds and one, winning the second diamond In dummy with the king. Dummys three good diamonds would be cashed.
 East would be forced to discard his three spades, South, the de- ciarer, would discard two hearts and a club. and West would dis card a heart and two clubs. The king of clubs and small clut would be led from dummy, the declarer winning the second club in his own hand. Declarer would then play his ace-.of clubs and would lose the, last trick-his jack of hearts--to Vests queen
 It Is quite true that the de- clarer could have made more tricks in this hand by refusing to take the diamond finesse, but with nine sure tricks in sight, 1t is not fair to your partner to take any gamble that will jeoPardize game.

The classical tailleur may be always chic, but 1t is em- phatically not a free-and-easy type Eof garment and the coat can seldom be removed for comfort without losing some of that well-groomed,

 My conception of a summer en-
 semble which would be, composed
 of a satin dress and linen jacket happened when this inconvenience first dawned on me and I imme-
 diately thought that if the jacket, instead of forming part of q two piece suit. was worn over suf- ficiently elegant dress. the difficulty would be overcome.
 An All-day Costume
 It is not astonishing that this idea won the approval of women.
 The dress of such an ensemble can
 appropriate all the fantasy allowed
 to simple dress and the addition
 of the jacket makes 1t eminently
