SuddendIy the darn thing is al
together unlike chess game: because,
on account of the plays are not all on
the table. The advantage of chess is,
that you can see the other fellows
moves, when he moves.
You see: you can't altogether trust
a spy. On account of the business he
is in. Especially if he has no other in
centive than the money you are pay
ing him to turn in good reports.
Another trouble is, it is liable to
spoil your golf game. Right in the
middle Of good shot, you see mes
senger coming over the greens. And
you lose track of where that darn bail
is going Immediately.
So when you lose that golf shot
there is another Incidental item added
to the cost of the spy business. And il
it don't help any, if you happen to be
playing the president of the Company
Union.
1t is darn complicated; it is mighty
exciting; but it gets to be hard on the
nerves.
You can't brag about it-except te
your cronies who also play the spy
game. Your wife would like to know al
about it: of course! But this thing il
supposed to be secret.
Then along comes the son of OLE
Bob LaFollette, and prizes all the lid
off the whole thing. He makes tn,
detectives talk; and they like to ge
their names in the papers, anyway, Bu
how Internally stupid they do look
when they get into print
And you get caught in the sam
company with them. Wow!
At least your picture looks better il
print than Chowderhead.

Instead, there has been no rebel

have taken in a few days one of the
strongest positions the rebels held.
One thing is known and one may
be surmised which help to explain mat

up of Spaniards, that the overwhelm-

Moors, Germans and Italians in the
rebel ranks alike and that there have
been serious mutinies in the polyglot

The surmise is that Musolini was
