~ ANSWER—You are entirely right in believing -that your loyalty
belongs to your grandmother.
She has invested a great deal in you
and 1 believe you will prove to he a paying investment. I do not speak from a financial viewpoint, alone, for if you make a success of your life,
she will. feel repaid for her efforts
in your behalf,
“Where your father is concerned I feel that grandmother’s advice
would be superior to mine.
She knows all the circumstances better

Your need. of your father has caused you to endow him with quali-

Try. to be fair to them both. After all, you've been fortunate. in your

Unless you learn to forgive your
‘mother ‘and father for their failure, you will grow up into ‘a sour and
embittered woman.
An unhappy outlook on’ life will be a handicap
for you and a ‘poor reward for the lové and. care you. bave received,

Mothers Are People
But—there are thousands of mothers who begin to think of themselves occasionally as people. People removed from the perpetual role of home goddess. “Oh, dear,” sighs Mrs. Smith, “I have not seen an art gallery outside of a department store for seven years. I forget what an Inness or a Van Dyke looks like.” - And then I recommend the library. There is nothing exciting about a library, but just go and sit in the reading room and get a hobby book on your favorite subject, and lose yourself in the peace and quiet of hours all your own. Or just take a bus ride. Or go to see a movie all alone without having to hold small Billy on your knee and explain why the bad man didn't mean to hurt the nice lady.
LOCATE ‘FIT’ FIRST

BY W. E. KENNEY American Bridge League Secretary NE of: the things upen which J modern bidding methods place much stress is the ‘necessity of finding a “fit” «4n suits before either player’ gives a force. Bitter experience with heavy penalties has taught contract players the importance of knowing in what suit a hand can he. played before ‘the “bidding reaches foo high a level. This is one reason why almost all bridge players nowadays vlan the one over one, in the early stages, and why jump bids are so significant and always imply &° “fit.” In today’s hand, Miss. Mijldred Hall and Aaron O, Miller, playing at the Sheridan Bridge Club, New York, in 8° rybber game, reached a grand slam contract by a wise application “of these rules. While there are other. roads to |sai the grand slam, the biddi of Miss Hall and Miller was Very ne. Note that Bast, Miller, did not force on the first round. The redson was that no fit had yet been developed. Equally, West ‘did not force on the second round, but contented herself. with. the simple bid of two clubs.” She had a singleton in her | partner’s bid suit, After the club bid, however, East could force. West then showed the | spade control with a hid of three spades, confident that her partner had a “fit” in either clubs or diamonds. - When East jumped to five clubs, she knew where the “fit” was, and hid the grand slam. The opening lead of the club five was won by West with the nine.
