Using the one-over-one system, there is little danger that another opportunity far hiddinr will not be afforded. First, partner will keep open the bidding noon as little ae the K of one salt and the Q of another, for fear that game might be lost, or a better declaration missed, if he al lowed an opening bid of 1 -Heart to pass, mere are km sugnuy belter than even chances that part ner will hold at least one quiek trick, and better than even chances that another player may overcaU an opening; bid of 1-Heart.

Tnere are ouixe trooo argu . . a ments to offer in favor of each one of these three possible bids. After year .own thirteen cards are fixed, there may be held against yon any one ef 8.1ZZ.4Z5, 444 different hands. We cannot take just the three other hands that happen to be neia on a single deal, and state from analysis ef the cards as they lie, that one spa des ef bid is correct and that any other one of the uree posnoie bids is inferior. Our Testion is broader than that We want to know which one of the three bids that Z should make is the best. It is both stupid and cowardly to blink the truth. Others will mo the facts even If yon do not. Every reasonable syitera of bid dinr possesses both toints of ex cellence and weak points. Using the Vanderbflt Club, the- Z-Clab Foree. or the Two Force. It prob ably would not occur t any player- to employ a bid that did not xorce oartnera response, cut under tne official system many players might hesitate to force with so high a bid as three, knowing that game might lie in spsdes, diamonds, or uo tmnns. rather than in hearts. Such Olivers micht nrefer to use the semi-opening bid of 2-Hearts, but partner will pass such a bid, aJ theurh he holds the One 'card needed to yield game with so pow erful a hand as that shown. An other danrer arises in ease you do make a demand bid of three; if nartner should happen to hold the Ace of hearts and soua ciuos, ne mieht trv for a slam that would not materialize. On the whole, however, I think that the best opening bid U S-Hearts, under the official system. Thore. Is -game with Y as partner. A grand slam wenld result with A as partner. There is game at spades with B as partner. CeantsM 1M1. BOnc IWmtw STatlnta. taa. and also the diplomas to the eighth grade pupils who hare fin ished the grade school.
