Your Heath and Diet
BY Logan C1endening, NJ. D

The most unhealthful and url-
comfortable feature of American
living conditions is bad ventila-
ton. This is especially true in
winter. 1t applies to our
houses, office buildings. stores,
hotels, railroad cars. and even
to buSSes. It applies with
Especial force to most Of the
places where crowds c6ngregate
-theaterS and auditoriums. The
majority Of the larger and re-
Gently built movie theaters
have very good Ventilation.
Churches. because of their
high pitched or vaulted, roofs,
tend to have better ventilation
than other auditoriums.
The principal thing that is
the trouble with the American
indoors in the winter is its
dryness. There is a lack Of
sufficient humidity.
The second most important
fault is lack Of motion OF the
air. .
Our houses and offices in
vatiably are too hot. But they
would not be if we controlled
the humidity better and made
provisions for fresh moving
air.
What is fresh air? Why do
we say, Let's 60 out and get
a breath Of fresh air?" What
makes us instinctively desire to
do that? what are the quail
ties about fresh air that are 50
refreshing?
Leonard Hill, the great Eng
fish authority on ventilation;
says that fresh air is cool
rather than warm, dry rather
than damp. diverse in temper

q made an opening bid of
2-No Trumps, which his partner
raised to 3-No Trums. He failed
to go game on a very simple
problem in card reading. The
opening lead was the S of dia-
monds. Dummy played low; B
put up his @, and 2 declined
to play his ace. Having four OF
his partners suit, B followed

leaving dunmy's J unprotected.
The declarer proceeded to es-
tablish his spades. A won the
second round OF that suit, and
again led diamonds, picking up
two tricks in that suit: these
two tricks, together with the
one previous diamond trick,
and the two tricks won by AS
two aces, totaled five tricks, de-
feating the game contract by
one trick. Everyone remarked
that it was "a tough luck
hand" but was it?
When A makes his opening
lead of the 5 Of diamonds the
rule Of eleven" proves that B
holds Just two cards in dia-
monds that are higher than the
S.. Deduct S from II the an
swer is s. This means that
outside the hand of the leader
there must be. held just six
higher diamonds than the 5.
Count them: Dummy has two,
the deelaret holds two, there
fore z also must have two.
When he plays his @ of dia-
monds B flatly denies holding
the missing 10. B may hold
either the K, 7 or 6, but by
no possibility can he hold the
10, when dummy shows the J,
as a play of the 10, would as
certainly force rs ace as would
the Q. knowing that the miss
ing 10 must lie in AS hand,
the declarer should see that
dummy'S J:S held over AS 10
will certainly win a Diamond
trick, provided he wins the
first trick With his ace. Only
a stupid notion that he must
not put up his ace on the first
trick prevented z from going
game.
If z wins the first trick with
his ace of diamonds, when A
gains entry with his ace Of
spades. Oh the second lead of
that suit. A will again lead his
diamonds. If the 10 Is led,
dummy's j will cover, and B's
K will Win the trick. But
durnrny's 9 will win the third
round of the suit. In case A
leads low, instead of leading
his 10 through dummy's J-9.
the 9 will force BIS K, and the
J will win the third round of
the suit. Two diamond tricks,
three spade tricks, and four
club tricks can be won against
any. defense. Game is assured
if 2 will play the hand as it
should be played. Late in the
play, after z has won his nine
tricks, A will take a trick with

two diamond tricks, but that
