BLESSED ARE THE CONFIDENT
An. important New Yorker called
me up to ask about two doctors who
run a clinic in a little town in Cana
da. He knew that | had visited them
some years ago and that they did me
much good.
l described them to him in the
words of one of their patients. 'They
are human ferrets," l said. "They seem
to be able to discover and correct con-
ditions where ever specialists have fail
ed"
The man went up t Q the clinic and
stayed three weeks. Yesterday he tele-
phoned me to say that he had not felt
SO we'll in years. He was SO. enthusiast
tic that | could hardly get him off the
phone.
l sent another man up to Bill
Browns health farm opposite West
Point. The man is vice president of a
business that has had plenty of prob
lens. He was nervous and discourag-
ed. He came back from Bills on the
top of the world.
l referred a friend to an architect
who has done some very clever work
for us on our country house. My
friend was delighted.
The doctors write me letters of
thanks. So does Bill. So does the ar
chitect. They think l have done them
a friendly service. I reply that, on the
contrary, the obligation is entirely on
my part. They have given me one of
the best pleasures in life, the pleasure
of recommending someone who is real
ly competent. .
How seldom we have hat pleasure.
What a discouraging lot of applica-
tons we receive from men who want
to do something but have never done
anything really we'll.
1t is time for someone to reprint
and redistribute Ebert Hubbard's
Message to Garcia. 1t tells, you re-
member, how President Mckinley,
when the Spanish Wa broke out, need
ed to get immediate word to the lead
er of the Cuban insurgents, General
Garcia.
Some one told the President that
there was a man named. Major A. S.
| Rowan who could find Garcia.
Major Rowan took the letter, ask
ed no questions, sought no directions
or advice, but quietly and promptly
set sail for Cuba, made his way
through the wilderness and delivered
the letter.
Hubbard sang his praises. "Civiliza-
ton is one long anxious search for just
such individuals" he exclaimed. ANY
thing such a man asks hal be grant,
ed. He is wanted in every city, town
and village-in every office, shop,
store and factory. The world cries u
for such: he is needed and needed bad
ly-the man who can Garry a Mess
age to Garcia"
l do not think that humanity is in
herently selfish or hardboiled. l think
there are many business men who
would like to help their fellows to bet
ter jobs and more business. But so few
Of those who want help have ever de-
livered anything.
Now and then ONE one who does
deliver. And what a joy it is to recon
mend him!

is a bad bid because partner may leave
it in. At a void score, there is a much
better chance for game in spades than
in diamonds, so the three-spade bid is
preferable.

ARTICLE No. 6

There is no Auction player in the
world who always wins or who always
loses, and yet some players, d~eservedly
or otherwise, get that reputation. 1t is
very useful to have a reputation for
good luck. It not only gives your
partner confidence in YOU but also
worries your opponents. Card players
as a class are superstitious, even though
they will not admit it and, when a
player has the reputation of ALWAYS"
winning, he generally does. He has a
happy air of success that imparts itself
to his partner and opponents alike. II
love to play with you, partner. You
always make me feel that we are going
to win" Such remarks to a winning
player are often heard and show the
influence that his reputation exerts.
On the other hand, consider the
player who always" loses. He takes
his place at the table with a sad and
mournful expression as if Fate has
already marked him out as the loser of
the rubber. He generally starts out
with a remark like this: "Well partner,
| haven't been able to hold a face card
in weeks so watch your STEP" He takes
a queer sort of pride in his bad luck
and seems to enjoy talking about it.
Needless to say, such a player has a
bad influence on his partner and an
encouraging n on his opponents. He
probably doesn't always lose, but he
certainly deserves to always lose. He is
his own most formidable opponent and,
by his dismal complaints and talk
about hard luck, discourages his part
ner as we'll as himself.
There is a lot of psychology in
Auction and Contract and the winning
player is generally the one who comes
to the card table not only with the will
to win but with the sure belief that he
is going to win. Tell your friends of
your good luck, but keep your bad
luck to yourself. Don't get the reputa-
ton of being a "Jonah." ALI the world
loves a winner, but the loser must
always weep alone. Practice Coue's
auto-suggestion and keep repeating to
yourself: II am getting fucker and
luckier day by day." You will be sur
prised at the results both in your luck
and also in your popularity at the
card table.
The following hands are interesting
and instructive:

No score, rubber game. Either at
Auction or at Contract, if US partner
had first bid spades and rebid them and
on the third round of bidding, bid four
diamonds, what should Y now bid if A
passed four diamonds? Y should bid
four spades. His partner has showed a
good spade hand by his rebid and only
a fair diamond hand. US hand has
practically the same strength in both
suits and therefore the same chance to
make four in either suit. As four spades
game, it is the preferable bid.
Hand No. 2 was the n held by rs
partner in Hand No. 1. In the actual
play, Z bid four diamonds and Y
passed. The hand was submitted to
the writer for criticism and from the
analysis it is evident that both players
made bad bids. US error, however,
was inexcusable: When your partner
has bid two suits and you have better
support for one, always take him back
to that suit. If you have equal support
as in Hand No. 2, take himback to the
major suit. Play for game all the time.

Columbia U. Gives
Facts On Negro

NEW YORK. - Many interesting
facts are revealed in the statistical
information gathered by professors
and research workers at Teachers
College, Columbia U. We learn that
one-tenth of the population of the
United States is Negro, that Negroes
operate 100000 farms in the
country, conduct approximately TO-
600 business enterprises and, before
the depression, had S2,000,000,0O0
in accumulated wealth.
According to the latest figures, So
per cent of the American Negro
population is still in the Southern
states and sc per cent is rural. The
Negro farm dwelling population is
now 100000 or 81 per cent. About

Salvation Army
Bars Brown Girl
From Swim Pool

NEW YORK. - William Pickens,
of the N. A. A. C. P, writes that the
splendid wartime policy of indiscrim-
nation against colored persons has
departed from the Salvation Army.
Mr.. Pickens writes that colored
girl student who is pursuing q course
in physical education at New York
University, was told by her instruc-
tors that she could not use the Sal
walton Army's swimming pool where
instructions were given.
Mr.. Pickens thinks: "If this state
ment is true, it is the most un-Chris-
tan, cruel, brutal, and un-Salvation-
like thing imaginable. Most of the
sinners whom the Army seeks to con-
vert would not be guilty of so cow
ardly a sin.
81 wonder if those veterans, other
colored. Americans who came back
from the front singing your praises
would not feel the same painful nau-
sea that | feel, if they learned that
the great Salvation Army had at last
been defeated in its attack on race
prejudice, and has retreated from
the ground it had gained toward uni
versal brotherhood"

marble VS.. Israel
Top Fight Card
For Next Week

Israel and McArdle, arch ring enc
mics, were yesterday rematched by
Nate Druxman for a six-round battle
on the Druxman-W aterman card at
the Crystal Pool next Wednesday
night.
McArdle, claiming he got the
works from Israel last week, has
been carrying on rapid fire COM
munication with Druxman ever since
the night of the scrap.
Israel has been plenty burnt, too,
over unkind remarks made about his
style of milling by Chris. McArdle
claims Able started the barrage.
Unable to hit Israel effectively
with his left hook, McArdle will at.
tempt to square matters between the
pair with a straight left lab.
The kid realizes that he has nc
chance whatever to hit Israel with
any effect at long range with left
hook, his speciality. But he does think
he can jab the Jewish boy with a
straight punch.
Druxman will back the main event
with four other all-star bouts. Del
King will be seen in one of the six,
round bouts. His opponent is yet
to be selected. Popular prices OF
soc, 75c and S1.00 will prevail for

Hill and Imigley
Battle to Draw

ferris Hill, colored boxer from
Chicago, looking more like middle
weight than a light heavyweight,
battled Red Tingley, white heavy
weight of Bellingham, to a draw in
the six-round main event of Austin
q Bishops card at Crystal Pool
Wednesday night. Hill should have
been given the decision. Outweighed
by 18 pounds, the colored boxer new
ertheless waded into his big rival
and easily scored the greatest num-
Der and cleanest blows of the con-
test. There was no Touchdown. Hill
proved to be clever boxer and east
ly tied up Tingley when necessary.
Tingley landed some sweeping left
hooks to the head and Jaw and lots
of rights to the body, but none of
them seemed to disturb ferris a
great deal.
The colored boy swung a lot and
connected with some left hooks to
the chin and rights to the head that
piled up points for him. And he
forced the going most of the way.
Only fair crowd attended the
show. The balance of the card re-
suited as follows: Jimmy Heffernan
won from Johnny Foster; Frank Van
Hee and Frank Sawyer went draw
Leonard Bennett stopped Joe Town
send in round two; Tony Portillo
kayoed Nels Ferguson in round five.
