AND WASP WAISTS

Attention

Housewives!

THE more ingenious the gadgets designed to save us work the more strain we put on our hands and our skin.

For example, we make washing clothes and dishes much easier by using machines and by adding one of the modern detergents to the water. The detergent dissolves the dirt and grease all right: unfortunately, it tries to dissolve our hands as well certainly the natural fats in the skin of wide, the hands.

This gave North a problem but he had little trouble' solving it. North had considered a seven bid over his partner's six dia- monds and cguin over his part- ner's six no-trump but had re- trained on the theory that South had taken

When South fulted to double seven hearts it was a different story. Obviously, he did not think that West could make it. Hence, he wanted North to go to seven no-trump if he could and with three top spades North was willing.
