LISTEN, WORLD!

ably exciting. She was to have
the adventures, because she
needed them. Emmy didn't
need them. It was all very
well for Emmy to say What
about me?' It was no business
of hers what happened to
Emmy. They were different"
THEY'RE DIFFERENT. A
dozen times a day we say that
to ourselves.
Why ask Nom out to the
movies with us? Nom isn't
interested in anything but the
house-doesn't care for things
like movies.
We know it isn't true. We
know Nom would care, if we
gave her a chance. We know
that she needs that movie fun
just as much as we do; per-
haps more. But it's stupid,
taking Nom along. And So
Then leaving home with it's
bread pudding problems, we
come to the larger world. Give
the under-dog a better chance?
But that means cutting down
on our personal profits and
privileges!
What's the use? The under
dog wouldn't know how to use
better breaks if he got them.
He'd waste his chance-make a
fool of himself-become a pub
lie nuisance. Besides, what
more does he need than he's
getting? People like that don't
appreciate the finer things of
life.
So we reason; but in our
selfish hearts we know it's a
lie. It is true that this low
browed brother of ours may
never become a Shaw or an Elm
stein. (Neither will many of
our millionaireS' Sons.) But it
does not, therefore, follow that
he enjoys gutter conditions any
more than we would, or should
be condemned to them.
He's as uncomfortable in
dirty, hot little rooms as we
should be. His cheap, ill-fitting
shoes blister him as much as
they would us. 1t hurts him as
badly to see his baby die. But
if we admit these things, think
what it will mean! And So
Stop kidding yourself about
the other fellow! Stop abiding
your own selfishness and heart
lessness by saying that he's
different.
If YOU'RE GOING TO BE
A PIG, AT LEAST BE AN
HONEST ONE.
Where's the thrill in being
told that you have a really
brilliant mind "if you'd only
concentrate it on your work or
something worth while?" And
where's the kick in being told
that you have gorgeous head
of hair If you'd just stop wreck
ing it with permanents and
making it that awful color?"

If the Seventh PanAmerican
Conference soon to convene at
Montevideo is to promote accord
among it's participants, its
agenda must be limited to busi-
ness that is truly PanAmerican.
This means tnat the confer
ence must keep hands off the
Monroe Doctrine, the Platt
amendment, the Panama Canal
and the Nicaraguan Canal route.
The Monroe Doctrine is not a
PanAmerican doctrine, but a
doctrine enunciated by the
United States, maintained by
the United States, and subject
exclusively to the interpreta-
tions of the United States.

Haunted Den

That one lucky person was
the original man who broke
the bank at Monte Carlo" and
his good fortune inspired a
song which was sung around
the world. It was probably
the best piece of advertising
the famous Casino ever had,
and the money he carried away
was a worthwhile investment.
But that players good fortune
was due to no system, for the
bank at Monte Carlo had de-
feated every system ever tried.
And if any place is haunted,
the rooms at the great gam
bling resort must be visited to-
day by the shades of all the
unfortunates who have tried to
match their skill against a
bank which is invincible. The
man who broke the bank at
Monte Carlo did not in the
slightest impair the prosperity
of the place, but he surely
caused the ruin of thousands
who have sought a mathemati-
cal method of duplicating his
good fortune.
Monte Carlo, just now, is
somewhat down on its luck.
The other gaming casinos of
the continent have lured away
most of the wild plungers, or.
at least what is left of them in
a sorely tried world; Gone are
the gambling glorieS of this
tiny, world-famous principality,
and nothing can ever bring
back the Russian Grand Duke
and the assorted royalties who
helped to make Monte Carlo

Adonted Children

Some adopted children who
have believed their foster par
ents were their natural fathers
and mothers are greatly shocked
when they learn the truth.
It seems so unnecessary for
an outsider to tell a child such
a thing.
That matter should be left
up to the foster parents at the
times they see fit to give them
the information.
The lives of many adopted
children have been saddened
and sometimes embittered by
having an outsider tell them
that they are merely legally
adopted and not the true chill
dren of the ones they call
mother and father.
There have been instances

woman is merely a body OF
protoplasm, entirely surrounded
by self -complacency.
A man always knows why he
wants a certain job, or why he
prefers a certain make of car;
but when you ask him why he
married a certain woman in
preference to all the others in
the world, he has to stop and
think up some logical reason.
The real problem of mar
riage, nowadays, is an economic
one. Sometimes it's the mans
money, sometimes it's the wom-
ans money; sometimes it's too
much money-and sometimes
it's no money at all, which
starts all the quarrels.
It is about time that the
Younger Generation began set

BY VIM. k. MCKINNEY American Bridge League

Expert partnership bidding de- bends upon the dclicacy of the messages which can be sent from one partner to the other, and the accuracy with which they are in terpreted.
 Some of the more routine mes sages occur very frequently and have been crystalized into what we call bidding system. However. there are many messages which, because of their diversity and in- frequency, cannot be classified, and the player must interpret them as best he can in the light of. surrounding circumstances.
 It sometimes happens that a bid which generally has one meaning must be given different interpre- tation, and expert bidding depends upon the ability to detect these hidden, or even contradictory, mes- sages.
 The North and South cards in today's hand were played by two national champions in a rubber game recently. North and South were vulnerable, but East and West were not.
 South opened the bidding with one club, West overcalled with one diamond, and North bid one heart - @ one-over-one force. South's next bid was one no trump, and bid of one no trump in response to one-over-one is 0 common form of sign-off.
 However, North reasoned that his partner had bid no trump over Vests diamond bid. He must be trying to say that he was not afraid of the diamond suit and hoped the bidding would progress further, therefore, his bid was de- cidedly constructive, in this case, in spite of it's usual sign-off mes sage.
 North now bid two clubs d minimum raise in his partners suit which is also q very com mon type of sign-off. However, South remembered that his part ner had first made constructive bid of one heart. If North had q weak hand and desired to play at a contract of two clubs, he would have made that bid on the first round.
 Obviously North did not want to play the hand at two clubs, but was trying to convey a different message; namely, that he had club support in addition to his other strength. South bid two no trump, giving further assurance of dis tributed strength, and North re- sponded with three spades.
 South's next bid of four clubs was highly illuminating. It showed a re-biddable five card club suit, and gave North chance to draw some beautiful inferences.
 Why had not South re-bid the club suit earlier? Because he had well-distributed high card strength
