IN the fall of 1924 a man was
carried into st. Anthony's Hospital,
Rock Island, ILL.,, on stretcher. He
was followed through the front
entrance by his dog, a collie named
Shep. The stretcher attendants
paused at the elevator before taking
the sick man to a room on the third
floor. The man reached down,
patted Shops head and said, Good
by. Shep, wait here"
Shep waited and wondered why
his master didn't return. He didn't
know that his master had passed
on. No one told him that the body
of the man he loved most had been
taken away through a rear exit. He
only knew that he had been told to
wait by the elevator door.
For days, the handsome dog re-
manned there. He refused all food
placed before him. His only inter-
est seemed to be in the elevator
door. Each time it would open,
Shep would sit up to see if his
master was returning Soon he
realized that he was among friends.
He ')egan to eat the choice bits that
the nurses and hospital attendants
gave him. The days grew into
and the months into years,
and still Shep waited
The dog became the pet of the
hospital and was extremely friendly
with those who stopped to pat him,
but he would never leave his IA
vorite corner by the elevator for any
great length of time. Thirteen
years passed, and then one day

while crossing the street in front Of

automobile. An orderly carried poor
Shep back into the building, but the

lieve his suffering, and he died.
Today a large oil painting of
Shep hangs on the wall beside the
elevator door where he waited so
long for the only master he ever

he had had to blank his king of
spades in order to prevent dummy's
seven of hearts from being estab-
lished, but I still couldn't be sure
of this. East might have had the
king of spades all along. This is
where psychology entered the sit
uation. Mr.. Ellis first three dis
cards had been the deuce, seven and
eight of spades in that order,
thereby giving the impression that
he had nothing Of note in the
suit; then he discarded his fourth
club and then the queen of hearts
(after I had discarded the ten of
hearts,. If Mr.. Ellis really had
nothing in spades he would have
tried to conceal it from me- Also
his premature spade discards, while
holding club and heart that
he could discard without danger,
showed obviously that he saw the
squeeze coming and decided to
throw the spades earlier, instead
of doing it later and squirming
around in his seat, clearly indi-
eating to everybody that he was
being squeezed, as a less expert
player might have done. Having
deduced all this I played the ace
of spades, dropping the king, and
the queen of spades took the last
trick. Feeling very relieved and
gratifled that my deductions were
correct I sat back expecting very
warm congratulations from my
partner. Mr.. Newman's comment was

Hamburger seems to be the ac-
cepted meat to buy for dog. How
ever, stew beef is a better type of
meat for your pet. Finely ground
hamburger tends to pass too quickly
through the intestines and often
has a tendency to ferment there.
While no particular harm will be
caused by feeding a dog hamburger,
stew beef not only contains less
fat but is really better for the an,
imal.
The incorporated village of Great
Neck, N. Y, has an ordinance that
forbids residents to keep more than
two adult dogs in one household,

(Mr. Brotn1dn is q member OF
the Uorld'S championship team
ot-tour bridge combination and
,uinner OF the District and Mary
land masters championships
There are two kinds of bridge
players-those who consider them
selves superior to all other bridge
players and those who consider all
other bridge players inferior to
themselves. This modest estimate Of
ones own abilities as a bridge player
prevails even among those who in
any other field of endeavor would
frankly and openly admit they are
hopeless and utter failures. Now,
honestly, in which one Of these
classes would you place yourself as
a bridge player?
Once you understand exactly how
your partner feels, the next time
you sit down opposite him at a
bridge table half the battle will be
won. You know that there are only
two weak points in his game-bid-
ding and playing. You also know
that these just happen to be your
two strong points. Together, there
fore, you should make a pretty
strong combination.
Be patient with your partner and
try to respect him. After all. he
may be fine matchmaker or an ex-
cellent trial lawyer.
So, for the benefit of your part
ner, am going to try to list here a
few hints on bidding and playing
which I have picked up after years
of patient playing with partners just
like yours. He may, of course, be
familiar already with some OF these
tenets, but again he may possibly
get some help from a few of the
suggestions. So here goes:
While it is true that rules are
made to be broken, don't make that
your rule in playing bridge. In
other words, don't open some hands
with one trick and pass other hands
with four tricks just because you
want to prove your independence of
all rules. The only time such tao
tics may bring good results is when
you are playing "autobridge" at
home all by yourself. You may re-
gard yourself as an instructive
player, but after all your partners
instinct may run in an entirely
different direction.
Never try to prove to your part
ner that you can be more stub
born than he. If the bidding goes,
one heart by you, one spade by him,
two hearts by you, two spades by
him, three hearts by you, three
spades by him, ETC., let him buy
the hand at seven spades instead
of your now bidding seven no
trump, which, in all probability,
the opponents will double. Remem-
Der, he can still get the last word
by redoubling.
Since no bridge column is con-
sidered complete without at least
one bridge hand I will comment
on an interesting hand played in
the recent Eastern championship.
This hand occurred in a knock
out team match (total points,
against the defending champions,
Ellis, Fuchs, Stayman, Seller and
Skinner. Our team included New
man, Lebhar, Katz and myself. The

The name of Alfred Jones prob
ably is not especially known to one
stamp collector in hundred, but
there is no reason why it should
be neglected by the philatelic public.
A distinguished engraver and painter
| in oils and water colors, he earned
the right to be remembered by a
long lifetime of devotion to the high
est ideals of art.
Mr.. Jones was born at Liverpool,
England, April 7, 1919 The Die
tionary of American Biography says
of him: "He came to America when
very young man and was appren-
ticed as a banknote engraver in the
f<m of Rawdon, Wright, Hatch &
Edison, first in Albany, N. Y, and
subsequently in New York City"
Every leisure moment" of the young
designers youth was spent in study
at the National Academy. He re-
ceived the first prize awarded by
that institution in 1889 for draw
ing from a cast of ThorvaIdsen's
Mercury"
The dictionary continues. Bank
note companies furnished employ
ment for the line engravers of that
day. The vignettes on bank notes
were engraved by Jones with good
drawing and certain boldness and
richness OF hue. He invented a
process for successfully reproducing
directly from a photograph a plate
that could be printed with type-
the popular 'half-tone' process of
later day. He made his negative
upon crown glass and produced.
the screen by ruling the negative in
a ruling machine; from this ruled
negative an electrotype was made"
Many publishers desired Mr..
Jones services. I'm 1846 he went
to Europe to study and spent a
year in Paris in the life classes.
He also visited England, working
there under some of the best Lon
don masters. When he returned
to New York, he engaged in busi-
ness for himself, devoting his time
almost exclusively to bank-note
vignettes. Noteworthy are the two
cent, 30-cent, and 81 and S. postage
stamps of the Columbian series for
the American Bank Note Co. He
was elected an associate of the
National Academy of Design in
1841 and an academician in 1851
and for many years was secretary
and treasurer of the academy. AS
a line engraver, he had few, if any,
superiors in the United States. Many
OF his engravings appeared in Gra-
hams Magazine and Godey's Lady's
Book"
Among the most widely circulated
Of Mr.. Jones works were: Patrick
Henry Delivering His Celebrated
Speech in the House of Burgesses,
Virginia, 1885," and Capture of
Maj. Andre" He engraved several
portraits of Washington and two
portraits of Thomas Carlyle-"all
good examples of combination of
line work and etching"
