At this vulnerability, you are on the borderline for a raise to four spades. However, the fact that you are void in partner's suit means that he might have one trump loser more than he anticipates, so that convinces us to pass.

If you bid three no trump, you should brush up on your understanding of the trick-taking potential of your hand. 4.2 Neither vulnerable, as South you hold: 46 9K8 0 AKJ93 AQ1054 The bidding has proceeded: South West North East 10 Pass 19 Pass What do you bid now? Partner's one heart has improved your hand response. because the king of hearts now becomes a working card. Therefore, we would jump shift to three clubs. Had partner responded one spade rather than one heart, we would have deemed a simple rebid of two clubs sufficient.

0.3 Both vulnerable, as South you hold: 9AQJ 0 0096 The bidding has proceeded: South West East Pass 2 0 Pass Pass 3 Pass What action do you take? You have a minimum opening bid and partner did not have the values to force to four spades. Nevertheless, we would not pass. Our. diamond values should be upgraded, and we would accept the invitation on the strength of double fit. Had partner's response been two clubs instead of two diamonds, we would have been content with a partial score.

Witnesses said the flames shot hundreds of feet into the air and smoke could be seen 40 miles away MY ANSWER By BILLY GRAHAM DEAR DR. GRAHAM: My mother was always a very dedicated Christian woman, and a great exam ple to my brother and me. But now she has gotten very forgetful and all the time she talks about how she doesn't think God loves her or that she will go to Heaven when she dies. How could this have happened to her, and what can we do about it? Mrs. R.G.

DEAR MRS. R.G.: First of all, you need to be sure she has had a thorough physical examination by her doctor (or even by a doctor who specializes in the medical problems of older people). Researchers have discovered much in recent years about some of the problems that often come with age, and many of these can be slowed down or reversed by proper medicines. There may, therefore, be complex medical reasons why your mother "doesn't seem to be thinking straight" (as your letter says elsewhere). But whatever the cause, you can be an enormous comfort by reading the Bible to her frequently, and emphasizing especially God's promises concerning His everlasting love and care of us when we know Christ.

WHAT A COMFORT it is, for example, to remember God's promise "that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the from the 20-acre complex, owned by Texas Gas Transmission a subsidiary of CSX Corp. of Richmond, before the main gas fire was brought under control.

Sometimes an older person may feel that he or she is a burden to other people and may even think somehow they are a burden to God. But this is not so! By your love for her, you can demonstrate Christ's love. We are saved by God's grace, never by our own good deeds.

My prayer is that your mother will have an inner peace and assurance of Christ's love and salvation as you help her remember God's promises to her.
