There must have been a mistake

Dan repeated. His lip twisted.

The woman drew away from him.
She put one hand TO her cheek in
gesture that had been rehearsed
frequently. Wistfulness, a pleading
note came into her voice.

Dan. A dreadful mistake!"

! South's forcing bid marks him
with practically all the missing high
cards. A great many players would
lead the king of clubs, but this
would be incorrect.
You can not hope to make tricks
in every suit, and the one suit in
which you can not make trick is
diamonds, and there is no harm in
leading that suit.
If you will lead a diamond, the
contract can be defeated, but if
you lead the king of clubs the hand
will be made in the following man
ner: Declarer will win with the
ace, take one round of trump; East
will show out, echoing with the
eight of diamonds.
The declarer will lead a club,
which West will win with the queen,
and now in response to partners
echo, he should lead the queen of
diamonds, which is won in the
North hand with the ace.
The nine of spades is won by
Souths ace. He then cashes the
king of spades. discarding a dia-
mond from dummy.
He rufus a spade, the jack of
clubs is led from dummy. and when
the club suit breaks the nine of
clubs is played, declarer discarding
the ten of diamonds and West ruff
ing with the five of hearts.
You can see the position that
West is now in. If he returns a
diamond the declarr will trump with
the six of hearts and lead the seven
of spades.
West holds nothing but the
queen, jack and eight Of hearts,
dummy has the ten and seven of
hearts and the nine of diamonds,
while the declarer has the king and
nine of hearts.
If west trumps with a small
heart the declarer will overtump in
dummy with the ten, while if West
trumps with the jack of hearts the
declarer will discard a diamond
from dummy and will then take
the last two heart tricks.
A well-played hand, but one that
easily could have been defeated,
had proper thought been given to
the openin ghand.

The Bidding

The Bidding
South bid one spade. While
south's hand contains five quick
tricks, it does not have the proper
distribution to make an original
two bid.
Remember, that an opening two
bid in the one over one system alb
solutely guarantees game, even
though partners hand is trickless.
North would respond to this one
spade bid with a bid of one no
trump South would be justified in
bidding three hearts, and this North
would cary to four hearts, which
West certainly is justified in doub-
ling.
The Play
What would you lead, holding the
West hand? Not spade into de-
clarer's first declaration. You want
to hold back on the trump.

Mccormack Jubilee.
John MCCORMACK recently cell

lOHN MCCOhMhCh ItCtllIy CtIc-
y brated in London the 25th anniver-
sary of his first appearance there. In
terviewed by the London Morning Post
on his silver jubilee, the tenor was asked
the question, How does it feel, Mr.. Nc
Cormack, to have celebrated your silver
jubilee in the Singing World?" Mr.. Nc
Cormack replied: 1T is a wonderful
feeling, but it is perhaps more wonderful
to hope that I may be able to celebrate
my golden jubilee In singing"
This conversation brought up the
question of age. and on learning that
Mr.. Mccormack is now only 48 years of
age, the interviewer remarked that such
a jubilee seemed quite probable. Sew
eral great artists were mentioned whose
careers lasted until they were many
years Mr.. McCormack'S senior, and
some of whom were almost twice his
age when they passed on.
Mr.. Mccormack recalled the names
of few of his conferees who had COM
pleted the half century mark in sing
ing, some Of whom are still going
strong. Malta Battastini, for instance,
whom Mr.. Mccormack recalled with
great affection sang until his death in
1927. Battastini was 10 years old when
he died, and he had been singing for
practically SO years.
John de Reszke was 78 when he died,
and although he had given up his ac-
tive singing career in favor of teach
ing during the latter part of his life
time, he retained his great following
and many sincere appreciations of his
voice until the end
Manuel Garcia, another singer who
turned to teaching, reached the grand
old age of 10l years, having been born
in 1905. Among his celebrated pupils
was Jenny Lind, whose career before
the public lasted little more than II
years-a very short time indeed when
one considers that Adelina PATHS bril-
liant career extended through mere than
half a century. To mention lew
other singers whose careers are notable
for their length, several names are out
standing. Nine. Schumann- -Heink, now
past 70. proposes to sing until at least
her 8Oth birthday anniversary. Dame
Nellie Melba, who died recently in Aus
tralia, sang practically up to the time
of her death, although she was more
than 10. Marcella Sembrich, who made
her debut in 1877, sang professionally
until 1916, 80 years.

Vienna Saengerknaben

The education of these Vienna choir
boys is a state matter and during the
dark days of 1918 to 1923 in Austria,
the famous school was discontinued
only to be revived in the latter year
when state finances improved to an ap-
preciable extent. The boys, 1t should be
stated. are only useful as singers dur
ing the period from to IA years OF
/ age, during which time they become
cadets of the school and their entire
education musical and otherwise, comes
under its supervision They live, work
and play together and in Summer have
their vacation together at great
house situated in the mountains OF
Eastern Tyrol.
When their period of singing is over
and they have grown too old or too
large for the choirs requirements, the
boys can elect to continue their train
ing along regular scholastic lines or
leave the control Of the Saengerknaben
Institute.
The American tour of the Vienna
Saengerknaben is the outcome of several
recent European tours during the
course Of which the boys have achieved
outstanding concert triumphs in Ger
many. Switzerland. Jugoslavia, Poland,
Rumania, Italy, France and Spain. On
later tour. the boys gave series Of
concerts In Scandinavia and In Greece
While in Rome, the young singers were
received by Pope Plus XI and sang for
him, receiving in his own handwriting
a quatrain which likened their voices
to the muse Of the angels in Paradise
