HIGH CARD VALUES
OF THE FOUR-ACES SYSTEM
ACE. KING..2 QUEEN.1
West opened the Ace of Hearts and then led a low heart, dummy winning with the King. South then drew three rounds of trumps, after which he led the club King. When West took the club Ace, South spread his cards, announc ing that he would discard his third diamond on dummy's long club.
Everything may seem perfectly honourable and upright, but tuke

if you can spot both crime and criminal before you read on.
South was the criminal and the crime was his bid of one spade! He should have doubled, on the chance that North was "trapping" behind the heart bid. North would have passed the double,
and good defence would have set West at least three (and probably four) tricks!
No harm could result from the double, since if North happened not to be trapping South could bid huis spades later on.
By, bid- ding the spades, however, South gave up the chance to collect a penalty worth two or three times as much as the game.

THE CHINA MAIL, JUNE 6, 1941. -
Many of the great men
and women of to-day sensitive, highly-
were sensitive, strung children...
But with sensitive children there are dangers that have to be watched during childhood
WHEN a child is highly-strung
and sensitive, it depends in many ways on you whether he'll develop into a fine human be- ing or not.
You see, a highly-strung child has got all the qualities that are necessary to put him far and away ahead of other children. He's alert, quick on the up-take. keen in his reactions.
But it is in this very mental the and physical make-up of child that the danger lies. He lives more intensely, reacts more vividly to every little thing in his surroundings. That's why the bringing up of such children needs fur more insight on the the part of the parents than bringing-up of ordinary chil- dren,
Many such brilliant children have failed in life. They've grown up weak, easily-led and over-sensitive, simply because their parents did not understand certain health warnings 11 childhood.
When you notice that your child is off his food, or that he looks pule, puffy under the eyes, and that he's rather nervous irritable or gets tired too casity. then you should act quickly.
All these are warning signs that the child is using up pis nervous energy more quickly than he's replacing it. And it is at night, during sleep, that these stores of nervous energy should be replaced. If they are not replaced, the nervous strain on the child gets worse and work. He is suffering from Night Star- vation.
If you give your child Hor- licks every night at bedtime, his tiredness, paleness and "nerva- ness" will "disappear. Horlicks, by guarding against Night Star- vation, replaces nervous energy during sleep, strengthens nerves, and builds appetite. Your child will grow up strong and healthy, able to make the most of his special qualities.
Start your child on Horlicks to-night. Horlicks is obtamable at all good stores.
