Don't be satiaflod with just your bid or just game. Try for the extra tricks, and when on the de- fensive, even though you cannot stop game, play your band carefully those to prevent

The hand was played in a con- tract bridge tournament, At most of the tables North and South finally got the contract at four hearts.
The Play.
West had the opening lead and led the king of spades which was won in dummy with the nce. The ten of hearts was returned from dummy, East played the deuce and South the four. The nine of hearts was next led, East played the seven and South, the declarer, played the jack. Declarer then led the ace of hearts, picking up East's queen, West discarding the deuce of spades.
A small diamond was led to dummy's king and the jack of dia- monds returned from dummy. East, who held only the eight and queen of diamonds, would gain nothing by covering, so plays the five. South played the nine and West the ton. The ton of clubs was led from dummy. Now wo find East with the queen and nine of clubs, and the ten spot should now be covered by East with the
should If East
fail to queen. cover, the declarer would play the four and then lead another club from dummy and finesse the jack. The two spades will be discarded on the ace and king of clubs and the losing spade in declarer's hand will be trumped in dummy with the eight of hearts. In this man- ner the declarer would make a grand slam.
But when East covers with the queen, the
declarer to win the
trick must play the king. Declarer can now cash his ace and jack of cluba but. forced to ruff the four
of clubs in dummy with the eight of hearts. His next play is a diamond from dummy which is won in declarer's hand with the ace. The good king of hearts can be cast d but the opponents must win the last spade trick,
East by covering the club with bis queen, has held the declarer to six odd, but as only four were bid, the declarer scores 120 for the tricks bid and made and 50 each for the two extra tricks. As both sides were vulnerable, he receives 500 points for game.
YOUR OPPORTUNITY TO

MORE FROM THAT SECOND INCOME YOU HAVE PLANNED
Why be satisfied with only 6% interest when your capital of Tis. 100 or more can earn 8% for you with 'safety?
It is a significant fact that to-day many people are reinvesting their savings in China Realty Co. 8% debentures and participating in the increased returns offered. It is not only labour that is earning more to-day; money is also busier and more efficient and therefore earns more in the shape of large dividends. If your funds are invested in good securities which are earning you less than 8% a year, then you have a lot of lazy or inefficient dollars working for you and you should give them a new task master.
Because we believe that the investing public should get a larger share than usual in the profits which accrue to modern business we pay interest of 8% on our debentures which are issued in denominations of

Dear Sir.
Please send me without oblign- tion on my part a copy of your last balance sheet and other information regarding your 8% debenture issue. Name

Tis. 100.00 each.. No sounder investment than these debentures can be found because they are backed not only by sound and conservative real estate mortgages but by the entire assets of this prosperous company as well. Your income from an 8% investment is one- third greater than from a 6% investment.
We welcome the small investor as one who, no matter how small his investment, becomes a friend of the company and thus adds to the value of our good will. If you have Tis. 100 or more of idle money, or money which is earning less than 8% invest it in China Realty 8% debentures.
During the past 20 years, we have negotiated mortgages amounting to more than Tis. 100,000,000.00 and so accurate has our judgment been that not one cent of interest or principal has ever been lost.
