Why did East happen to re- turn diamond and not the more templag club?
East and West were playing a suit pre- ference convention and if West had wanted club return he would have led his lowest spade,
This mult preferener conven- tlon will be the subject of next work's articles, but meanwhile we should mole that South had no reason to try this particular tramp finesse and every reason not to.

Bly Butlin told me "Eve never bought my wife cosmetics. I suppose she dess use make-up?"
CH Michelmore told me "I haven't a clue what my wife pula on her face. A bit of powder I suppose and what's that stuff-foundation?"
So for these two and the 13,000,000 other husbands who are bewitched, bewildered, or broke by the beauty business which annually takes £70,000,000 of their money, give you my quick guide to where the spare cash and spara time of your household gocs...
