ily threaten dire consequences, such
as "warped solos" and "weak ankles"
If we do not equip the baby with shoos
now. (H. P. w.)
Answer. The old folks must have
their notions. A baby should have no
shoes until ho has learned to walk.
Tho longer-- tho shoes can be post
poned the stronger and more perfect
will be the development of tho baby's
feet. And yet when you do finally in
flict the shoes' on tho baby, select
something like moicasins, avoiding
everything stiff or rigid in the way of
soles, toes, counters or uppers. Ba
bies muy wear knitted boots or soft
wool or skin moccasins for warmth
when they arc taken out In cold
weather. Hut wool socks are suffi
cient footwear for babies until they
have learned to walk. Going barefoot
when or where It Is not too cold. Is
still better for the general develop
ment of the baby. A baby has as
much need fur shoes as a cat ha8 for
a corset. '

ARTICLE No. 3
A rather interesting question has been
.ubmitted to the writer. "H your part
ner bids mo-trump and second hand
bids two hearts, with what type ot hand
should you: double?". There are two
separate and distinct cases in which the
partner of the no-trump bidder should
double an adverse over bid on his right.
For example, suppose the dealer bid
one no-trump, second hand bid two
hearts and you hold the following hand:
Hearts 7, 2
Clubs K, J, 7,4
Diamonds A, J, 10, 5
Soades K. 10. 2
Don't you think you should double two
hearts? If your partner has a no-trump
hand, I't should be impossible for the
heart bidder to make his contract. On
the other hand, It would be difficult to
score game at no-trump or a suit bid.
On the other hand, suppose your part
ner bids one no-trump, second nana
bids two hearts and you hold the follow
ing hand: -' '
Hearts T, 10,9, 7,5
Clubs-K.7, 4, 2
Diamonds K, 10,2
Snarlcji 10 '
Don't you think you ought to double
two hearts with this hand? If your part
ner has a sound no-trump you should
' defeat the two heart bidder by two or
three tricks. Tiicse hands are not in-
consistent-They merely specify the two
types that lustily a aoume 01 an ad
verse fiwo bid over partner's no-trump,
The same player has suggested that
with stronir hands of the first type, it
would be better to double with the un
derstanding that the original no-trump
bidder should bid his best suit. This
type of informatory double has been
trier! nut manv times hut is not consid
ered good tactics. The whole purpose
ot the lnlormatory double is to lorce
rjartner who has not vet bid to show
his suit. To extend this principle to one
who has already bid is carrying the
principle too tar. By bidding no-trump,

by the Saxons under Harold at tho

Saxon king rushed into battle, but
the more deliberate Normans re

a player declares himself as having at
least two quick tricks distributed in at
least three suits. To aslc him to give
further information is unnecessary, If
he has greater strength than indicated
by his no-trump bid, he should be al
lowed to show this strength voluntarily
without heinf forced to do so bV his
partner's informatory double. He lias.
done his duty by bidding no-trump. If T
he is overbid, mt partner snouia not
take up the burden. If he has a good
suit, he should bid it. If he has a hand
that justifies a double, he should double.
If he has a hand that justifies a two no
trump bid, he should bid it. If his hand
does not justify any such action, he
should pass. It is then up to the no
trump bidder to make another bid if
his hand justifies it. Auction it a part
nership game and the object of the bid
ding is to find the best bid of the com
bined hand, the best bid for twenty-six
cards, not thirteen. This can be best
arrived at by bidding after partner has
bid rather than by use of the informa
tory doubles which force bids, because
forced bids are always hard to read.
They may have strength and they may
not. Never voluntarily place yourself
in a position where you must guess as
to your partner's strength if there is
any other way open. Guesses, no mat
ter how brilliant, can never cope with
cold, hard facts.
In this connection a restatement of
the nature of a business double is perti
nent. A business double is a double
made for the purpose of defeating the
bid doubled. Any double is a business
double if made after partner has bid or
doubled, or any double of an original
suit bid of four or more, or a double of
an original two no-trump. In this con
nection please note that after partner
has bid a no-trump and opponents have
overbid and the partner of the no-trump
bidder has doubled, such a double is a
business double and made for the pur
pose of defeating the bid.
