Mr. Emrich sat in the South and pened the contracting with one club. West passed and North bid one diamond. Mr. Emrich's next declaration was three no trump.
The Play.
West's opening lead was the aight of spades which East won with the ace. East returned the ten of spades which Mr. Emrich refused to cover, The six was continued which West
won with the queen, Mr. Emrich discarding n club from dummy.
The king of spades was eashed by West and another club dis- carded from dummy, Mr. Entrich dropping a heart.
East and West had taken the first four tricks, and West was in the dead. It looked as though he were bound to make either the Line of hearts or the king of clubs.
However, he realized that if he were to lead away from either kin. the declarer might make his contract. Therefore West select- ed the lead of the eight of diu- monds which Mr. Enrich, in the South, won with the jack.
After West's play of the eight of diamonds, Mr. Emrich marked him for both missing kings, 11 decided not to try what might arnce to loa Insing finesse, but selected the play known as the Vienna con and now played bis ace of hearts, deliberately setting to West's king.

A WORD IN SEASON
THE business world is facing a period of , slow recuperation. In it there is no place for undue optimism or undue pessimism. A measure of cautious proce- dure will see thlugs through.

Zi. Perpetual Forests, Ltd. urges Investors not to lose sight of the elements of investment-security of principal and certainty of yield.

There is nothing else for it to depend upon.
Because of this, N. Z. Perpetual Forests, Ltd. advises Investors to place their money in a "Growing Industry." In an industry with a constructive plan already in action to meet a definite public need.
