CHOW PUNG IS CHINA'S LATEST COME-ON GAME

China has made another contribu- tion to civilization. This time it is a game.
 All through China-not only among the Chinese but in America, British, French and other foreign circles one hears the rattle and click of lot of strange looking, bamboo-backed ivory or bone-faced objects somewhat resembling dominoes. As the players about the table become excited, they ejaculate "Pung", "Chow"!" Nah Jongg!" and the like.
 They are playing one of the oldest games of the oldest civilization in the world: Nah 1ongg."
 In the far East the game has su- perceded dominos, poker and bridge. Everywhere in the clubs, in homes and tea-houses, Nah Jongg's the thing
 America Getting the Craze
 Now the craze has hit America. It can be found even at department stores, at least in the larger cities In America they call it, "Pung- Chow"
 Pung Chow is played by four per sons, with "tiles"-as the units are called-136 in number. These are divided into five suits. Three have the same value and run, like cards, from one to nine. The suits are called Bamboo" Dots" and Char acters." The other two suits are hon. or suits and are of higher scoring val ue. One is namel for the four winds East, West North and South the other for the Dragons-Red, White and Green.
 A four sided wall" two tiles deep, is built and from this wall the play CTS draw 13 pieces, save the banker the banker is always known as East Wind"-who gets 14.
 By a system of drawing each play CT strives to build up a winning hand. This may have even more value than in poker.
 Counters-little bonesticks-take the place of chips and there is settling up" after each hand is played-the banker winning or losing double. You can learn to Play in an even ing. Your lifetime is too short, how ever, to learn all there is to learn. As a mind-builder and teacher of con- centration it has all else backed off the boards.
 Easy to Lose Ones Head That's whay it was called in the Ori- ent ''the game of a thousand intelli- gences''
 Nah Jongg means sparrow" For thousands of years it was a game for royalty only Only emperors, their families and the Mandarin class play . ed It was then-centuries ago-call- ed 'Pe Ling" meaning the lark" the bird of a hundred intellegencies.

The "Vamp of the Salvation Army the ycall her around Times Square. Within a stones throw of 50 thea tres and as many dance halls and cab arets where the worlds highest priced entertainers hold forth and Wealth invites Youth, Captain Crawford takes her nightly stand and directs traffic down the straight and narrow road. She's the only Salvation Army lass who has ever been able to draw big ger crowd, single-handed, outside theatre, than chorus of beauties could inside. She talks to Broadway in its own language.

 "To stay on Broadway, you must be a good snowman" she continued ] knowingly. You must have tact, sym pathy, and the ability to sense the feelings of your audience. You must know the psychology of the crowd. You must give them your best, and let them know you are giving it.
 "I have no moving picture outfit, but I can make the men and women in my audience see pictures no camera could show when I remind them of their homes and mothers and their childhood associations.
 When a man laughs, or looks scep- tical, I single him out for special at tention, just as a vaudeville performer sometimes does Do you remember what you were when you left your small town home to capture the big city?' I ask him. What do you really think of what you've become" 'I keep after him until he does think, and everyone else thinks.

 Broadway loves it's jazz, so 1 jazz up the hymns little.
 'I keep constantly in motion. Eva Tanguay doesn't use more pep in a performance than I do."
 The captain was asked if she re ceived notes from men in her audi ences. She laughed, and admitted she did.
 "I get a sheaf of letters every day | she said. Most of the mare from men, I get more invitations to dinner in a week than l could accept in q year.
