DO YOU PLAY PING PONG?

Do you ping-pong? It's the latest
game. While Bridge" is the pastime
par excellence for brainy folk. ping
pong is the one for those who like
an indoor recreation to remind them
of their favorite outdoor game. lawn
tennis. Bridge apes whist, and by de-
votees is said to be ousting that an
cient and honored exercise Of the wits
altogether Ping-pong apes lawn ten
mis- and seems to be trying to rival it
in popularity, says the Philadelphia
Times.
That is one point of likeness be-
tween the issue of the games; but
there are many differences. Ping-pong
is as innocent an excitement as eat
ing cake, while the other invites the
measure Of gambling that appeals to
the majority Of card players Again.
while bridge is so difficult to those not
gifted with the type Of intellect that
takes to whist and chess and such alb
struse diversions. that they must pay
large sums to professors OF bridge"
to be taught it. ping-pong requires
merely modicum of practice to Sc
cure its disciples efficiency. AS for it's
rules, they can be committed to mem
-ory.
Hence the two games appeal to two
very opposite factions In society
though there are in bridge coteries
many bunglers whom those who play
we'll would fain hand oar to the ping
pong players.

Good Start for a Novel.
The Hon. Sol Temple of Ok1

The Hon. Sol Temple OF Oklahoma
''one OF the most notorious outlaws in
the southwest" grew weary of the
dungeoa in Pond Creek. While the
jailer was at dinner Sol worked his
way through the corridor into the gun
room, where he selected various gums"
and goodly store of ammunition. When
the jailer came back. pethoric and
careless Sol pulled a gun on him, made
him march to Soils former cell and
locked him in. Then Sol asked all the
other prisoners to join him and escape.
They were fellows of mean spirit
and declined. Forth went Sol, full of
guns and courage, and merrily strobe
