In other words, don't overbid unless the possible gain is fairly equal to the possible loss. The usual way for the thoughtless plaver tp make this mistake is to bid a minor *¥'*•. clubs or diamonds, when the bidding indicates that he has no chance for game. Why take a chance of only njfcking three or four odd in clubs or diamonds when, if you are doubled, you may lose a big penalty? A score less than game is only of value about once in fifteen deals: so it is a good rule never to bid to make at •Core less than game if there is any risk attached. 1 here is practically aothiag to gam by the bid and to much TO lose.

At this point A thoughtlessly decided to bid three clubs. The bidding should have indicated that he had no possible chance for game. Z's no trump bid, Y's two-heart bid and B's pas* were all indicators that Y Z held the best combined hajids. For that reason A couldn't hope to score game. On the other hand, he had a good chance to save game. His hand would probably be worth three tricks with hearts as tramps so that if his partner could take but one trick he would save the game. A, however, thought of none of these very evident facts and bid three clubs, which Y doubled and defeated by 400 points. If Y Z had played the hand at hearts, they could have scored only three odd as B would have taken two heart tricks, and A would have taken two tricks. A's bid in this instance cost 400 points when he should have known beforehand that he had no chance for Sime and a fair chance to save game. eware of such bids, and of any bids No score, first game.

AUCTION BIDDING: , Y should bid four spades. If Z has a sound three no trump bid, Y should have no trouble in making four spades. The danger of letting Z play the hand at no trump is that Z may not have a spade and Y^has no re-entry card. The four spade bid seems the proper ohfc.

How can Y Z win four of the five tricks against any defense? Solution: Z_ should lead the ace of spades and discard the ace of hearts from Y's hand.

Water will be pumped from Gardes creek, 3,075 feet under the canyon rim, to the park headquarters and -tourist hotel, M. R. Tillotson, superintendent of the (irand Canyon National park, has announced. The projeel will be completed in four months. Contracts w<ere nwari'nl to a Los Angeles "firm recently to tay almost two miles of 5-inch steel pipe from the springs to the top of the canyon walls. The project v,ill be one of the most unique attempted In Arizona, because of the dangerous route laid out for the pipe line and the great pressure* necessary to force the1.water more* than a half-mile almost straight upward. Since the establishment of the resort on the rim of the Grand canyon many years ago, water has been shipped by railroad tank .cars for 100 miles. Flagstaff and Del Rio, Ariz., have been the sources. " Erection of an 8,000-foot transportn tlon cable, extending from,a point near the springs to the village on the canyon brink, will begin operations. The cahleway Is to !»«, In four sections •with transfer facilities at each station for safety purposes. The giant 17 stage pumps forcing the w;ater from the springs will be electrically driven. Three separate conduits for transmitting the electrical power will follow the routing of the pipe line. This is the second huge water project undertaken at the Grand canyon. A similar system was Installed by n railroad company on the north rim several years ago. ing comfort. Exhaustive tests made by Firestone Engineers have shown that its cushioning qualities bring about the nearest approach to "riding on air" that it has yet l>e<?n possible to achieve in iire manufacturing. Cobblestones, car tracks, road ruts and similar rough sppts of the highways are taken with scarcely any jar at all. Along with the comfort phase of their er.gineerfrig task, the Firestone designers also developed the safety features of tke new tire. It is announced that mud, sand, sod or soft ground, wet or slippery pavements are negotiated with ease and safety heretofore unknown. Skidding hazards are £J"eatly reduced. In this respect the tire achieves one of its most important missions, since the combination of low pressure and in- JOHNSBURQ creased riding surface give it a much higher . resistance against skidding than has ever before been attained. Both the tiro and the special wheel were planned by Firestone " ; Engineers with an eye to beauty. v"" » ' • The special- wheel is .a concave' black disk, attractively set, off with rings of polished chrome. A complete set includes five "Air Balloon" tires and five wheels and an arm for adjusting the steering. In the evolution of tires for smaller cars, for example, the tire size has been increased from cross section width measuring 3.00 inches to 3.50 to 4.40, then to 4^0 and later to 4.75 inches. Now the "Air Balloon" approximately doubles the cross section aise for small cars and increases the air volume about four times. • j** r~Xv"' X r%y. ^ ? •: 11* • "fX) Misses Betty Kempfer, Hel«ft Meyer and sister, Evelyn, of Chica« spent Friday afternoon with frieiMp here. . _ • ; The Johnsburg Dramajtic club t£ sponsoring a home-talent play Suttday night.
