GEORGE WASHINGTON TRAVELLED

GEORGE WASHINGTON TRAVELLED
THIS WAY. BY Fred L. Holmes,
author of Abraham Lincoln Travelled
This Way" With a foreword by
Glenn Frank, president of the Uni
versity of Wisconsin. Boston: L. G..
Page & Co.
Out of study of the diaries of George
Washington, and from scrap books, local
literature, papers, pictures and visits to
the scenes and over the routes which the
great statesman and soldier travelled, the
author of this new semi biography of
the Nations most beloved hero has drawn
another picture of the man whose life
and history will through eternity remain
the spiritual and practical inspiration OF
the people of the United States of Amer
lea. Political scoffers, false prophets
and planners may shout their
theories and their iSmS from the hilltopS,
but the fundamental principles of gov
ernment to which the immortal Virginia
farmer devoted many years of his life
will survive and books about him will
continue to be written.
The thirst for knowledge about WASH
ington grows rather than lessons as
newer generations of Americans become
nation conscious, and each new volume
contributes something to the great store
of facts that are now being separated
from the glorified traditions which for
SO many years shrouded the real man.
The so-called debunkers have had their
day and been forgotten and now the gem
uinely human understanding and au-
thertic record of his life and of his per-
Sonal interests and his public work are
rapidly gaining headway in the vast ac-
emulation of WaShingtoniana.
There are no irrelevancies and stray
ings away from the main theme in this
work It is a straightforward, verified
account of the travels of the farmer, sur
veyor, patriot and statesman, journeying
step by step from the happy. peaceful
days at Mount Vernon through the
strenuous hardships and victories Of war
and on missions neceSsitated in the
course Of shaping new nation on the
western side of the Atlantic.
In an Introductory note the author
says of his work in relation to the Wash
ington envisioned after a study Of his
diaries: 81 return him to you leader
of sincerity, solidarity and common
understanding-an athlete, home lover,
farmer, soldier and public-spirited citi-
zen. For Washington is best revealed in
the environment in which he labored."
Mr.. Holmes has adhered faithfully to his
theme, thus announced and produced
book that is both worthy and valuable.
It is embellished with many illustrations,
a map of the territory traverSed by
Washington and a jacket IL full color.
Like all publications from the Page house,
it is artistic in appearance and genuine
in content.

Solution to Previous
Contract Problem
BY w. E. NI'KENNEY

Secretary American Bridge League
THIS is the fifth of a series of
i hands from the Terrace Bridge
Club, New York.
Today's hand is one of the pref
test for variety that I have seen
in a long time. 1t was played by
w. Mason Lichtenstein, who not
only rates as a fine player, but who
knows that there is something to
bridge besides winning cup; as
a result, his range Of friends in
bridge circles is wide.
In this hand Mr.. Lichtenstein sat
in tn: South and made the only de-
fensiye play that could defeat the
four heart contract.
NORTH opens the queen of dia-
L Y monds, dummy goes up, and
South wins and cashes the jack OF
diamonds. Now let me show you
how the hand can be made with
any return but a diamond.
If a spade is returned, it is won
in dummy with the king, club led
back and a spade trump ID; another
club played to the king and dia-
mond ruffed; a heart played and
won with the ace, and the ace OF
spades eashed.
The ten of spades is led and all
North can do is make his king of
hearts.
If heart is returned, the fineSse
is taken. North winning with the
king and a spade returned.
A club played and won with the
queen and a spade ruffed: another
club played and won with the king.
A diamond ruffed and low club
played and ruffed with the jack of
hearts.
The ace of spades cashed and
then the ten of spades played. North
has to ruff ana dummy over-ruffs,

Ann, to the great living room where

table.
Ann Westmore was tmdeniably
lovely, her little blond head rising
like a rare blossom above straight,
slim shoulders. She sat on the
couch beside Mrs. Dey, cigaret
between her fingers, a tiny foot
swinging nervously.

Mrs. Dey. "Or will it spoil that

Ann laughed and took the cup

CHAPTER FIVE

THE street lights had flashed on
Il over the great city. lingo stood
BY the window in the dark little
apartment and waited until she
could no longer see the distant spars
Of the schooner at the pier at the
end Of the street. Then she pulled
the red beret over her hair, picked
UP the suitcase and slipped out,
closing the door quickly behind her.
She went three blocks in the op-
posite direction from the corner
drug store before which Whitley
lounged, from Casey's poolroom. and
from Tony's. before she turned to-
ward the thoroughfare where the
trolley line ran.
DR.. Laird was at his desk when
she came in. She dropped her suit
case to the floor with a little thud.
We'll, I'm here" she said, almost
defantly.
so you are laSsie. knew you'd
come back when We needed you
50. I feel as though I should go
and wake up Betsy and that red
headed Casey and all the rest Of
the little tikes and tell them lingo
is here.
4 knew you would come. That
is why I waited, although 1 want
10 get to a dinner party in time for
dessert. Mrs. Sykes and I fixed
your room and 1 wanted to show
it TO YOU"
He bent and picked up her suit
case and lingo followed him down
the hall to the elevator at the far
end.
Ever run one of these things,
lassie?" he asked cheerfully. "At
first 1 was so scared, I'd walk.
nOw-poof! It's just as easy-you
see, you walk in and close both
door@sol And then, if you are
going to the second floor-thats
the second floor button-and if
you're going to three-now, watch.
There up We go! And when we
get out We just close both doors
tightly-so!"
They were off down another hall
to a white bedroom at the end.
lingo looked about her at the
white, ruffled curtains and the
wicker chair with the cretonne
cushion and the desk with the gay,
quilted pen, the pictures on the
wall.
Its pretty-and Clean" she said
shortly.
you'll be happy. laSsie."
Her eyes narrowed. She dropped
the scarlet tam and her purse on
the bed and turned to him.
It's becauSe-I don't want to go
back there" she said slowly, that I
came herel Don't forget that!
Those folks are as good as any one
they are my folks. But I'll work
hard for you"
DR.. Laird was opening tie closet
door. smiling.
See, laSSie. : nice, big closet for
the white uniforms. and in the
morning you can look right out on
the sunrise. There's a red-breasted
robin who thinks he owns that lilac
bush down under you window, and
you'll hear MIN bright and early"
He held Out his hand and after
a moment she placed hers in it.
Good night, JeSsica."
Good night" and then after a
brief pause: Good night and
thank YOU"

and the last two tricks are won with
ace and queen of hearts.
After studying the line of play
given here, you can see that the
hand can be made with a club re-
turn also. But if the ten of dia-
monds is returned North will dis
card the four of clubs and this is
the play that defeats to contract,
as the declarer needs the king and
queen of clubs as entries.
When North discards club, he
is assured of the king Of hearts and
ruff. There are many other inter
esting angles to this hand if you
will just study them out.
