Pass 3 Pass Pass Pass All Pass Opening lead: 4 10 South should have doubled the opening bid, to indicate his support for all unbid suits.

But if he had, North might have become declarer at some number of notrump, and East-West would take at least four spades and the diamond ace after a spade lead. The actual contract of five diamonds, unbeatable as the cards lay, would be practically impossible to reach via East's orthodox double of bidding three procedure. as was of the take-out variety, and a well-chosen action. North, after hearing his partner's free club bid. realized the tremendous potential value of his club king, and contracted for game.

The play of the hand was routine. Declarer ruffed two clubs on the board, then held his while finessing the heart jack. When that won, South claimed the balance- conceding just one spade and the trump ace. WITH NEITHER side vulner- able, deals and holds: S. Q7 6 D.

Dermatologists will give you different remedies for each, but one prescription makes sense for both; cleanliness. Many common blemishes, including the well-known pimple, are caused by infectious germs. If you keep your skin free from these germs you will keep your. skill clear and free from unsightly blemishes.

Not only pimples, but many other forms of skin disorders, such as boils, impetigo, erysipelas, cellulitis and others, are caused by infections from specific germs. Soap would seem to be the solution, but there's a trick to it. The skin is normally acid and this is a protective device, because germs don't flourish in acidity. When you soap on your face. you are changing its natural state.

Soaps are alkaline, and a soapy film left on the skin can help germs to breed. Another mistaken notion 1s that the "dewy" complexion is best. It's all right if your face looks dewy, but if it actually is moist you're setting yourself up as a brecding ground for those nasty bacteria. From these two observations, we can set down tw First, when you use soap to cleanse your face. be sure to remove every last vestige of It with a thorough rinse.

If you 150 .2 washcloth to lather your face, use a separate one to remove the soap. If you use your fingers with the splash technique, be certain that those splashes extend to the hairline. Merely wiping soap off won't remove the residue of film. Second, be sure to thoroughly dry your face. Use the towel for a miniautre massage, rubbing upward and outward on your cheeks.

Hot towels are best because the heat tends to dry up moisture on contact, even without rubbing. But don't be reluctant to rub it will do your circulation good. If you cleanse your face with facial creams instead of soap and water, the same rules apply. Be sure to remove every last bit of cream and make certain that your face is dry."
