Watch Your Shoppers
in. Bidding No
Trump,

The pointer for today is;
1t is rarely wise TO bid no trump
over an adverse suit without two
shoppers in that suit.
Yesterdays hand was held bv
West, who had to decide what to do
after a declaration by South.

I TO bid No Trump over an adverse

out, unless eight consecutive tricks

there is better chance for game at

TO CURB REVOLUTIONS IN
CENTRAL AMERICA

WASHINGTON, Feb. 81. P)-The
situation is so critical it was officially
stated that all marines have been or
dered Withdrawn from protecting the
mails and directed to prepare for rush
orders to Central America. The SUBJ
marine tender at San Diego was or
dered last night to take aboard ma
rines and sail under forced draft into
Corinto, where the marine guard will
be increased to 1000 men. It was
brought about by the revolutionary
movements in Honduras and Guata-
mala, and Admiral Latimer is expect
ed to place troops in those countries
also if protection of American inter-
ests and citizens make such action
necessary.
Official Washington is decided to
absolutely halt the revolution in Mica
ragua, leaving President Diaz in COM
mand and subduing Sacasa, the
rebel leader The action was also
fastened by the fact that a loan from
Mexico to DR.. Sacasa was revealed as
going through Guatemala banks.

FREDERICKSBURG, Va, Feb. 81.
(P-Young George Washington-he

would be happy youngster were he
here today. The drugstore where
his mother purchased castor oil for
him is closed.
What may be the Oldest apothec-

opened here by Hugh Mercer. The
Washingtons lived nearby. Mary
Washington, like most mothers of
her day, was firm believer in cas-
tor oil as a cure-all for what ails
you.
When George grew up, however,
he evidently forgot the physicians
connections, for it was at Washing
toms request that Mercer was chosen
by Congress as brigadier- general
in the Continental army.

SANDY SMITH PROMOTED
TO BR|GAD|ER GENERAL

s
SANDY" Smith, sometimes sour
dough and captain of the Detroit
motor sled contingent which would
not motor in conveying the Wilkins
Arctic party's supplies over the trail
to Point Barrow last spring, has been
promoted to brigadier general.
1t happened in New York, according
to Captain George H. Wilkins, the
explorer.
It seems that a reception to a num-
Der of army officers was being given,
and Sandy was among the invited
guests. So was a Brigadier General
Smith.
To assist the doorkeeper in proper
ly announcing the guests as they ar
rived he was informed that Brigadier
General Smith would come in civilian
clothes, he being the big gun Of the
evening.
Sandy beat the general to the door
by a few minutes, and was almost
knocked off his feet when the door
man announced in stentorian tones:
"Brigadier General Smith"
It was not until the real big bat
terry arrived that Sandy was able to
decide whether he was being kidded
or had done something to get himself
into the ranks of the immortals.
