subject Of diaper sizes. It must
be 9 great puzzle to beginning
mothers to find that diapers run In
sizes, and even more puzzling to
find different stores recommending
different sizes. A Boston store
representative says. ssThis is a

Modern Life Made Easy
For Mother, Doctor Finds

By LOGAN CLENDENTNG, M. ID.
THERE WAS a saying in the
days Of our fathers and grand
fathers that, "You can't take care
Of a baby and do anything else"
That Of course, has been dis.
proved in thousands Of instances
by the modern day mother who
now earns part Of the family In
come.
But in the days Of our grandfath-
ers and fathers, Of even very recent
date, things were not made so easy
for the mother as they are now.
Nobody guaranteed good milk, and
even if the milk came from a good
dairy, it had to be pasteurized and
prepared at home. The formulas
were unnecessarily cumbersome.
Nowadays il, she wishes, the young
mother can buy canned milk that
Is every bit as good as. fresh, and
all she has to do is put the water
back into it.
Canned yitamin foods and canned
pureed vegetables for the only
slightly older baby lessen the
household burden.
Play pens and other safety de-
vices, help to let the mother do
something besides watch the child
every minute.
The clothes question has been
greatly simp1if sensible,
simpler, and less clothes, blankets
that Upper around the neck and
arms and can't be kicked off at
night, knitted sheets for the crib
that do not have any chill and do
not need to be ironed. Many mod
ern parents do not know what it is
to be walked up at night.

supported his call, South led the J
Of hearts. North's Ace won the
trick. North could see just two
added tricks on normal playa
trump trick and a diamond trick,
provided South held the Ace Of
diamonds. The sole chance Of de-
feating the game contract of de-
clarer appeared to be to lead his
lone club, then when he gained
entry with a trump, to lead a dia-
mond to partner and be given a
return ruff o North led his lone
club, which aeclarer took with the
10. Doubtless East knew what
was about to happen, but he could
do nothing about it. The return
lead of the @ of spades went to
North's Ace. A low diamond was
won with South's Ace. The club
return was rnffed, and the con.
tract was down trick.
Henderson daily dispatch., 1936-08-15

Above is a hand where West
played a contract of 4-Hearts,
doubled by North. West lost two
spade tricks, then ruffed a lead Of
that suit. To avoid guessing how
to play trumps, declarer led the K
Of diamonds, as if he wanted to
crossruff' the hand. It was de-
clarer's only chance to J. avoid
guessing. Misinterpreting de-
clarer's tactics, North led back a
trump, enabling South's Q to be
picked up, and insuring fulfllment
of contract.

THE ONE CHANCE

IN THE early days of auction
bridge, after whist players had be-
come accustomed to the added OPP
portunities for fine play afforded
by the exposed hand, the following
valuable rule was promulgated.
When you have more than a single
ton of partners suit, a singleton
of another suit and a certain trump
trick accompanied by one or more
low trumps fit only for rufing, if
you have the opening lead, lead
the singleton, instead Of partners
suit. Having won your trump
trick, lead partners suit, so that
he may give you the desired ruff.
Today's deal shows how the lead
er's partner also may utilize this
valuable play at times.
