WHAT'S WHAT
By UelCH Dccie

Card "tricks' should lie confined To
those cards captured by PLAYER and
opponent during game, Tricks o.
manner, annoying anywhere are treb!y
Veyatious AT the card table. This Is
especially true Of a complicated game
Ike auction bridge, which, as noted
in a former article in this series has
punctilous etiquette all its own, for
the benefit Of players who desire to con-
Centrate their minds on the problems
Of the game, People unfamiliar with
this etiquette should never play with
sophisticated players,
A man or a woman who taps the
table constantly with the free hanu
while studying the cards held in the
other hand, who talks inCessautlN be
tween plays '"ho sCOlds y partue" for
every lost tri, Is and rrsents every trick
won by an opponent, mas no business To
play bridge, or, indeed, 10 take part in
any game which requires not only the
promptness OF skilled play, but quiet
attention.

The New York herald., 1922-10-24

A reduction in the percentage OF loco
motives on the country's railroads was
reported as OF October /. when 1927
mower units were in need of repair. as
compared with 20.157 on September 10.
The decrease from 31.4 per cent. to 30.6
per cent. in two weeks time is regarded
as satisfactory in view OF the heavy
freight movement which set in with the
resumption OF coal mining. There was
An increase during that period OF 53S In
the number OF serviceable locomotives.
or the total in bad order 1913 we're up
for repairs requiring more than twenty
four hours. while the remainder required
light repairs. An increase OF 2,166 was
noted during this period in the number
of locomotives repaired and returned to
the carriers, as compared with the two
weeks from September l to is.

The American Ship and Commerce
Corporation In the first eight months Of
1922 made much better showing In
earnings than in the corresponding
period last year. and 1t is believed that
despite the decline In the volume OF
ocean freight and low freight rates the
net earnings for the year will offset the
deficit of $1.045,9S4 reported for 1921.
The better showing, 1t was held, Will be

reported that the Al per cent rate had
