Health Officer
w arms On Food

Summer time picnic and
outdoor living sickness from
spoiled food.
These go hand in hand every
year - but they needn't, accord
ing to DR.. J. l. Rhiel, health COM
missioner of Ottawa County Gen
eral Health District.
The main reason food spoils in
hot weather - and people get sick
from it - is poor refrigeration.
Hot weather causes bacteria in
the food to grow rapidly" DR..
Rhiel pointed out In a matter of
an hour or so food can spoil and
cause illness if eaten"
So a good general rule, the com
missioner said, is to keep food in
the refrigerator until you're ready
to eat it, or go on your picnic. Then
don't delay too long when eating
the foods.
Foods commonly popular for
summer outings and picnics are
responsible for many food-borne
outbreaks. Among them: potato
salad, cottage cheese, egg dishes,
ground or chopped meats, custards
and cream-filled pastries.
always, always keep these at a
temperature below so degrees
right up until serving time" DR..
Rhiel emphasized.
On the whole, he concluded, ex-
ercising little common sense will
probably eliminate most of our
summertime food sickness.

In today's deal Mr.. Abel led
the king of clubs. Mrs. Keen.
who did not want the suit con-
tinued, did her best to express
that thought by playing her
lowest club, the eight spot. Mr..
Dale promptly played the nine.
Mr.. Abel looked the trick over
carefully, examined his own
hand and the dummy and went
into a trance. Where was the
deuce of clubs? And did Mrs.
Keen want the suit continued
or not?
If she had started with @ 8 2
then, of course, she would play
the eight spot and the defenders
could and should cash three fast
club tricks.
There was the added consider
alton that Mr.. Dale might have
something like K @ j Q IN dia-
fnonds which would enable him
to discard all of dummy's club
losers if the suit were not con-
tinued at once.
Can you blame Mr.. Abel for
cashing the ace Of clubs at trick
two? That is what he did and
willy Mr.. Dale was then in a
position to make his contract.
losing only two clubs and a heart.
AS it happened, a shift to any
other suit at the second trick
would have meant sure set.
There is no question about
the value of signals but they
are not certain to be successful
all the time. This is as it should
be.
A purely mechanical knowl-
edge OF proper bids and plays is
not enough, The winning player
progresses beyond that and de-
velops the ability to execute de-
ceptive plays and stratagenls
which confuse and confound the
opposition even though the OPP
position knows "the book" by
heart.
