ELEMENT OF LUCK IN BRIDGE HIGH
Chess Described as the Per- feet Game Because It
 Is 100 Per Cent Skill

It has long been admitted that the only blot on auction bridge was the fact that its luck percentage was too high, writes Florence Irwin in the April Strand. The man with all the high cards could take the stakes whether he played well or poor ly; he could defeat superior players be- cause he held the good cards against them This was hard on the superior players; also it was the hattest kind of victory for the victor. No good sportsman wants to win on cards alone.
 Of course, expert players could make

More Statues for India

From the Nottingham Guardian.
 If British prestige in India depends on the number of statues erected in honor os Britain's great men--a hypothesis, by the way, which Is open 70 considerable doubt--it ought to stand high in 1914 Early in the new year three new statues will reach India; one of General Sir AL exander Taylor, destined for Delhi; an- ether of Lord Kitchener, for Calcutta. and a third of King Edward VII, for Rangoon.
 The one of Lord Kitchener is a colos- sal equestrian statue by Sidney March, and is to bet set up in Calcutta--that is if 1t ever gets there, for so far his lord ship and his charger have shown a dts tinct disinclination for the trip. At first they refused to be taken to the docks and all the kings horses and all the kings men couldn't get them there Eventually they consented to embark just before the date of sailing. though whether recourse was had to Noah's tra- ditional plan for getting the donkey to enter the ark did not transpire.

Equality, Fraternity

From the Tribune.
 The gentleman who found himself paus- ing for thought when he saw the given name of his wife entered on the precinct registry list ds Cert" had come upon a new aspect of equality. Ii startled him, as it might any citizen who for years had been an amiable and unconscious tranper down of human rights, but probably it was prophetic.
 Politics is colloquial and easy of habit. It promotes a ready first name" famili- arity. It may be sometime before lady in office is known as Fire Escape Sally. but possibly it's in the future, along with Hot Stove Henrietta.
 Before we arrive at such equality we suspect that the husband of an election official who hears an election judge call out. What count have you there, Bess?" will lead his wife home and take his con- sequences before the election board.
 Nevertheless we approach political so- phistication. A gentleman in the Twen- tieth ward found his wife working for candidate whom he did not favor and swung for her chin in frank recognition of her rights as a voter and an equal.
