The pass by second hand does not necessarily show weakness but simply a desire for more · in- formation, and if third hand also passes it becomes almost a force on the fourth player to keep the bidding alive,

The West player in to-day's hand could have saved a great many points if he had employed this convention, allowing the bidding to reach the second round before he entered it.

The Bidding

Declarer now led a small dia- mend to dummy's jack and South won with the king, returning a small club. Declarer played low and North won with the ten spot. Į

He threw the lead back with a diamond and the declarer could not avoid the loss of two more club tricks. His contract was de- feated three tricks for a penalty of 900 points.

If Went had elected to pass, in- stead of bidding two clubs, he would have learned that the ma- North and South hands and that a jority of strength was in the defensive bid could not safely be made.

However, when holding three and one-half high card tricks, he must be assured that East will not allow the hand to be played at one spade even though North is will ing.

In to-day's hand, North hold the balance of strength and a disas- trous penalty resulted,

The tufted end, notched bristle surface, and extra- resilient bristles of the Pro-phy-lac-tic reach between the teeth and behind the molars, allowing the wonderful cleansing agents of Listerine Tooth Paste to do their work most efficiently. Operating in perfect unison, the dentifrice and brush, thoroughly clean every part of every tooth, massaging the margins of the gums, and producing a delightful feeling of cleanliness throughout

the entire mouth.

Try double action cleansing. Notice yourself how swiftly it imparts a new brilliance to the teeth! Once you use double action cleansing you will never go back to ordinary dentifrices and unscientific tooth brushes.

IMPORTANT: Pro-phylactic Tooth Brushes are always sold in sani - tary yellow boxes; never loose. Limerine Tooth Paste is sold usually at considerably lower prices than other quality dentifrices. It should seve you enough to pay for the Pro-phylactic Brushes you use.
