Opening lead: Three of hearts.
When there is only one suit left in
which there is any hope for the de-
fense to take tricks, that suit should
be led regardless of the fact that
such an effort involves leading away
from king, an ace or anything else.
We many times see players with an
established suit staring them in the
face from dummy, upon which many
discards will be available as soon as
declarer gets in, merely tossing the
lead because, Partner, I could not
lead away from an ace-queen." II
the ace-queen suit is the only one
left in which your side can take any
tricks, that's the suit to lead and
without further ceremony.
The East of today's hand provided
a striking illustration of this policy
by making a lead that would other
wise have been very unattractive, be-
cause he realized there was only one
suit that could possibly provide the
defense with the setting tricks.
North's jump to four spades is not
so far out of line as might appear
at first blush. Since partner had not
opened the bidding, jump to three
spades would not be forcing and
North was willing to gamble it out
for game if partner had some such
hand as this:
AAQxxx 0xx nKxx Xxx
West led the three of hearts and
East's ten forced the ace The ace
and king Of clubs were caShed, South
discarding heart, and to the fourth
trick a low trump was led from
dummy. Had East reflexly played
second hand low. school would have
been out But East took time out
for little simple arithmetic. West
is marked with an original holding
of four hearts, both from the lead
Of the three and the fact that de-
clarer did not try to get rid of an
other heart on the queen of clubs.
So declarer is known TO have had 10
cards between spades and diamonds.
In order to defeat the contract. three
tricks must be obtained from the
diamond suit and this can be done
only if West has the king and an
other diamond. East, therefore,
rushed in TO take the ace of trumps
and led the two of diamonds. West
won with the king and returned the
suit, obtaining the ruff for the
setting trick.
( You ask how could East tell that
his partner had the king of dia-
monds? He couldn't; in fact, it was
more likely that his partner did
not have that card, but in that case,
the hand could not be set. So
why worry?

patton of all interested parties in the operation of a system of pre- paid medical care and leaves the professional aspects of medical care in the hands of the doctors where they belong.
 It relieves the physician of the onus of overcharging the rich in order to provide charity for the poor.
 It will make medical care more generally available, providing for the construction of hospital and health centerS throughout the coun- try.
 The health of the nation is of transcendent importance. A healthy nation is strong nation. A univer- sal appreciation of this fact will ir- fluence the people of the nation to accord a full measure of support to the enactment of health insurance legislation. The development and maintenance of a high standard of industrial efficiency and our abil- ity to fight for the preservation of our form of government-freedom, liberty, and democracy-depend very largely upon the establishment and preservation of the health of the nation. The health of our na- ton constitutes the basis upon which the superstructure of our prosperity rests. The care and pres- ervation of the health of all the people of our nation constitutes a challenge to the American people.

Garden Hints

Home gardeners who have sur vived the first brood of Mexican bean bettle larvae with . There. that's overw feeling are destined to have another session with the yellow, plump, hairy worms that do the damage.
 Tt is time for the second brood to put in it's appearance" says A. E. Wilkinson, vegetable specialist of the Agricultural Extension Service, University of Connecticut, although it may be little late because of the season.
 The worms may not be noticed unless the plants are examined be- cause they feed on the underside of the leaves. AS soon as they ar- rive spray with cryolite using one ounce in two gallons of water, or with three-eighths of an ounce of derris, cube, or timbo root (con- taining four to five per cent of rote- none) in fifty gallons of water. If dusting is preferred, use one part of cryolite to five parts of neutral tale, or one-half pound of derris, cube, or timbo root and three pounds of tale. Home gardeners will find it more convenient to purchase their spray or dust ma- terial already prepared at a garden store.
 Control measures will not be suc- cessful, says Prof. Wilkinson, unless the spray or dust is directed up against the underside of the leaves as that is where the eggs and young will be found.

Your baby's first cereal feeding is an important day in his life. This will be his first contact with food that is not a drink. If his orange juice and cod liver oil have been taken from spoon, so much the better, for the spoon isn't strange, though the cereal is. <
 For the first feeding of cereal, make 1t very thin so 1t will not be so different from his milk. The baby cereals are pre-cooked and only need to be mixed with quite warm formula or milk. If your baby is breast-fed, your doctor will tell you how to prepare the milk to use on the cereal. A very thin, almost liquid cereal, will not seem so strange.
 But even a thin cereal requires a different way of swallowing than the milk, he has had. Milk slides down through his mouth but more solid food has to be managed with his tongue, so his first impulse may be to spit it out. Pretend splitting out of his cereal is what you ex- pected and place a little more well back in his mouth.
 Usually a new food is given at the beginning of the meal. But, baby is probably ravenously hun- gry and may resent trying some- thing unfamiliar. In that case, give about half of his bottle Cor breast snilk) before expecting him to be willing to try something new. When the worst of his hunger is satisfied with his familiar food, then introduce the new food.
 It is well not to. confuse baby by giving second cereal for the first week or so. But. even babies en- joy variety, so, before long you can give him a wheat cereal food one day and then an oatmeal the next day.
