Rejoice ye saints, and swell the glad refrain, —-ZTT How to Play BRIDGE Series 1929*30 by Wynne Ferguson Author of ‘PRACTICAL AUCTION BRIDGE” Covrtlfkt. t*». by Hoyle. Jr. ARTICLE No. 29 “Never lead away from a king” is a fair rule, generally speaking, but some times the rule must be broken. As an example, take the following hands: Spades— K, 7,6, 2 ; ^ : No score, rubber game. If Z dealt, bid three hearts and all passed, what is A’s proper opening lead? In tnis hand, A has four suits, each of which contains a king, so in tins hand, at least, the rule ‘‘never lead from a king” must be broken. 1 he question then arises, which of the four suits should A itaJ? 1 hat fact should be determined by the bid of three hearts. If 1 has a sound three-heart bid, the chances are that he dnesnt hold spades. If he had strength in spades, he should have bid one heart bo that if overbid by his partner in spades, he would be in a position to help that bid. For these very good reasons, the proper lead with the fore going hand is the deuce of spades. Hand No. 1 A Y B Hand No. 2 Hearts — A, 6, 2 Clubs— K, 9,4 : Diamonds — K, 7, 5, 3 r A Spades — 7, 6 : Y Z B No score, rubber game. If Z dealt, bid one spade and all passed, what is A's proper opening lead? In this hand, each of the four suits presents good reasons for not leading ft. Unfortunately, one suit must be opened, so that one which promises less chance of loss than the others should be selected. A should not lead hearts for, if he does, it will probably cost him a trick. The trump lead would place his partner in the position of having his trumps led through up to the st rong hand, and so probably cause the latter to lose a trick. Those two suits, therefore, should not l>e led as tricks would unques tionably be lost by so doing. The problem is then reduced as to which suit, clubs or diamonds, each containing a king, should be opened. When forced to ch< osc the lead between two suits, each containing ;i king, choose the shorter suit, m this *asc clubs. The reason for this choice is thuc a player with only three cards . f a suit stands a smaller chance of having the second t*r third round of his suit trumped than if he had four cards of the suit, and, therefore, a better chance to make his king. In this hand, A’s proper opening lead is the four of clubs. The following "end plays" were given in the preceding article. The solutions that are given should only be read after an attempt has first beta made to solve by the reader. Answer to Problem No. 23 Hearts — 6, 5, 2 , Clubs — none Diamonds — noon Spades — 8 Hearts — A, Q Clubs — none Diamonds —10, 5 Spades — none : A t l B i l Hearts — 3 Onb*—5, 4 —10 Heart9 — K, J Clubs — none Diamonds —■ K Spades — K I \ ■wait say defense? .Safeties: Trick com Z •braid trad the five df dabs.

If be discards the king of spades, Z’s ten of spades is good. Therefore, no matter what card B discards at the first trick, Y Z must win the remaining three tricks. This problem is the sim plest kind of end play in which the solution depends entirely on forcing of discard* t» Arabian No. 24 t Hearts — none Clubs — 8 Diamonds — K, Q, 9 Spades-* none Zfafca : the lead. How can Y 2 win three of ' the four tricks against any defense? i StiwHon: TritS omz Z should lead the tea of dabs and tramp in Y’a hand with the five of diamonos. Trick toe: Y shook! now lead the eight of spades. B can do one of two things (a) trump with the oaeen or (b) the nine of diamonds, (a) If B should trump with the queen of diamonds, Z should dis card the jack of hearts and must then win the next two tricks with the ace jack of diamonds, (b) If B should trump with the nine of diamonds, Z should overtrump with the jack of diamonds and then make the ace. In either way, therefore, Y Z must win three of the fear tricks. If Z should overtrump the queen of diamonds at trick two (a), Y Z would only win two tricks. Z would be forced to lead the jack of hearts, B would trump with the nine of diamonds and lead the king, thus winning two tricks. Also note that the lead of the jack of hearts at trick one is a false solution. B would trump and make at least one more trick with the king ?ueen of diamonds. Also note that it ’ doesn’t trump the club at trick one, A B will win two tricks, as Z will i>e left in the lead and must lead a heart or a diamond, thus giving opponents two tricks. Answer to Problem No. 23 Hearts Cluba Diamor Spade* - none J. 10 Is —7 - J. 7. 5 Hearts —10, 9 Gubs — none Diamonds — A Spades — A, 6, 3 Y A B Z Hearts — none Clubs — 9, 7 Diamonds —10, 9 v Spades — K, 2 Hearts — none Clubs — none Diamonds— K, O. 8 Spades — Q, 10, '• There are no trumps and Z is in the lead. How can Y Z win all of the tricks against any defense? Solution: Trick orr:Z should lead the ten of diamonds, forcing Y in the lead. Trick two: Y should now lead the ten of hearts. B cun salcly discard the aueen of diamonds, Z the seven of lubs and A the ten of clubs. Trick three: Y should now lead the nine of hearts. What can U discard ? He cannot discard the king of diamonds or Z’s nine of diamonds will be good; there fore he is forced to discard the nine of spades. Z should then discard the nine of diamonds; but what can A discard? He cannot discard the jack ot clubs or Z’s nine of clubs will be good; therefore he must discard the five of sna<!>-. This forcing of both opponents to discard to their disadvantage is the so-called “double squeeze” and a favor ite play by the e':p''rts. Note carefully that at trick four, Y should lead the trey of spades whi.h Z should win with the king. Trick f ve: Z should lead the deuce of spades and Y should play the ace. At trick six, Y’s six of spades wins the trick because at trick three both A and B were lorced to discard spades to protect their other suits. This end piny is as fine an example of *he ‘‘double squeeze” as ' an be found be cause it is simple and torces the dis cards of both opponents on the same trick.

The Washington M. E. Conference has just convened in Lynchburg, Vir ginia. In its wake the Baptists family will gather during the month of June. The Methodists have set the standard high. In point of finance, program and conduct little is lef tto be desired. The speaking was fine, pitched on a high order. In this lean year they were able to report $33,000 collected for confeernce purposes, and tho ■whole impression gathered by the public from their presence was one of high Chris tian morality. It will bo impossible for the Lynchburg public to miss mak ing a comparsion between these two large religious bodies meeting in the city so nearly together. We have with) in our ranks as Baptists the numbers, in fact a largo superiority in num bers. We havo as much wealth as any other denomination in the group and we have equal capacity for the exercise of all that is desired able and good.

HUMILITY OF JESUS By K. A. Adame (The Literary Service Bureau) Humility was one of the chief characteristics of the life of Jesus Christ. Isaiah pictured Him as a lamb, and as a sheep, and tells how in His meekness and humility, He open eth nut his foutli.” Jesus said to Himself, “1 am meek and lowly.” i’aul contended “He humbled him self;" and the whole life of Jesus was consonant with such characteriza tions of Him by various Biblical writ ers. Then in tire events of Balm Sun day, He gave emphasis to the couten tion that He was humble, and meek and lowly. It had been declared, “Thy King - shall come unto thee meek and riding upon the foal of an ass.” Because of its docility, an ass has been the symbol of peace, of humility, of meek ness, and this lesson was taught by these stirring occurrences which ush ered iu Holy Week, the last week in the life of our Lord before His cruci fixion and ignominious death. In this age of bigotry, conceit, ar rogance, and blatant self-praise, it would be well thut we go back in thought to Jerusalem and in spirit live through those inspiring events. It would be well to picture tire King of Glory on His humble ass, the people 1 anif-V Wh** Imiulai w lappniiX LHVILil. w Triumph MBi. Recom mended t>y thousands; used for over 3t rc'.re.

Mann “Look for Perfection” (The Literary Service Bureau) “Do not look for faults and for mistakes; look for perfection,” the author of these words is a minister. He was speaking to a large congrega tion, the majority of whom were dis posed to accept his pronouncements without question. But a few of them recognized the wakness of his philo sophy. It was Aleander Pope who wrote: “Who thinks a faultless piece to see, Thinks what ne’er was, nor is. not e ’er shall be. ’ ’ mid Pope’s contention is in consonance with human experience. Perfect con duct could only result from perfect wisdom, for even conscience is influ enced by enlightenment or the lack of it. Man is finite in wisdom, hence perfection is impossible. Almost puerile is this advice not to look for faults nor mistakes. Even if perfection were attainable it would re sult from discovery of faults and mis takes, and the correction of these. “Knothe hea auton,” “Know thy self’’ urged Aristotle. And Alexan der Pope wrote, “Know then thyself— Presume not God to scan.” The great inventions including the airplane and the radio were once ludi crously crude and h^ve been brought to their present state of perfection by tasting garments and palm branches, and the- little children in their praise to the King; it would be well to hear the multitudes as they cry “Hosanna” and t° witness the calm, dignified, un assuming, meek attitude of Christ and these occurrences. No doubht the boldest, most arrogant and most self centered individual would feel the sense of humility in contemplation of this inspiring occasion of Palm Sun day. r Florsnat “toot a Broadway tta HOW STAGE STARS KEEP HAIR LOVELY No HBED to oo vy tho teas. • t -,ht, silky, gleaming heir of RtM si a ot the itip and screen, you •an make your h&lr just as beautiful ar>l attractive as theirs.
