P., Transferred To Med ford Copyright 1W3 by Jtuylt, Jr. ARTICLE No. 17 Of what practical use are conventions of bidding? One hears thin question continually but seldom an intelligent answer, and vet the reason is a very biiiimc one. x ne conventions 01 aurnou are like the words of a language. They enable partners to give information as to their hands and so exchange intelli gent thought with one another in the endeavor to arrive at the best bid of t-te combined hands. Auction is a game where rie players are bidding against one another for the privilege of playing the hand, and unless partners under stand one another's buis, they will fre quently bid against one another to their disadvantage. The object of all bidding at auction is to arrive at the best bid of the combined hands and this can be done only by Intelligent cooperation between partners. Jf you bid one heart, meaning one kind of hand at one time and an entirely different type at anot her time, how can you give partner infor mation of any value? He will be forced to guess as to your holdi ng and, as usual with guesses, he is much more apt to guess wrong than right. Let your origi nal bids mean something definite, some thing that your partner can depend upon at all times. Let an original suit bid mean that you have at feast two sure tricks in your hand, one of which is in the suit bid. Tell your partner the truth. Let him feel that you are pre pared to play the hand at that suit or, if the opponents win the bid, that he can safely lead your suit. Or if you bid no-trump, let him feel that you have your bid; that you have at least two Bit re tricks distributed among at least three suits. When you bid, you are really making a promise to your part ner that you can make that bid; so be prepared to make pood. In the laneuaee of the merchant, let every advertised feature be a sacred pledge. When you iiiukb an original uiu, nuiu aces ana kings, or hold your tongue. An interesting hand has lust been brought to the writer's attention, show ing the value of mentally placing cer tain cards in opponents' hands in such a way that game is possible, and then playing accordingly; Jolin Carle, Southern Pacific agent, lms been transferred to Medford, where he will be station aKcnt and In direct charge of the station and yards. Mr. Carle has left Corvnllls and as named his new duties In the southern Oregon metropolis. Ho has been in Corvallivfor the past nine months, vlnnliiKf5iiany friends, and has been admitted to tho Rotary club. Mr. Carle has a farm In the Rogue river valley and will be close by to give his attention. The order lor trnnsferrn.1 came suddenly. However, It Is uollevod that lie hud been looking for the trnnsfor for some tlmo. No n?ont has been appointed to the local post yet, but announcement of Mr. Carlo's successor Is oxpectod at any fine.

The problem is for Z to so play the hand that he can win the balance of the tricks.

A now bid three clubs, Y bid three spades and B and Z passed. A now bid four clubs, Y and B passed and Z doubled. A re doubled and Y and B passed. What would you have done with Z's hand? Z should certainly bid four spades after A's redouble. 1 hat is where A made a bad bid. He had bid his hand very trickily up to that time but when he f;ot his four club bid doubled, he should lave been satisfied. His two heart bid was an apparent blulf bid and should have appeared so to Z. How could his partner V double two hearts unless the bid was a bluff? When A redoubled, Z finally awoke to the situation and bid four spades. A's partner doubled this bid and Z just made his contract. At four clubs, A should have just made hts bid so he lost all of his previous Rain by the redouble. A's biddingin this hand recalls Lincoln's famous saying: "You can fool all of the people some of the time and some of the people utt of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of tiie time."
