FAMOUS FABLES
BY E. E. EDGAR

GIFTS: Comedian Sir Harry
Lauder was an inveterate practi-
cal Joker. On one occasion, he
gave = friend two tickets to one
Of his performances. When the
friend arrived with his wife. he
learned to his embarrassment
that the tickets were fakes and
would not be honored.
The man said nothing but he
was determined to get even. A
few weeks later. he invited the
comedian to his estate, where he
entertained him royalty. When
Lauder was about to leave. his
host said to him:
Harry, I've got a little gift
for you. AS you probably know.
I am quite a pigeon fancier. Here
are dozen of the finest pigeons
in the country. Feed them we'll,
and don't keep them cooped up
too long,"
Lauder was overwhelmed by
this handsome gift. He took the
birds home, built an expensive
shelter for them and purchased
a lot Of food.
Several weeks passed. Then
one morning he decided to follow
his friends advice. He opened
the cages.
In a moment, he realized his
mistake. With a flutter of wings.
the birds took to the air. The
well-trained homing pigeons flew
straight as an arrow to the
estate of the friend, who had
been expecting them.

By EAsLEY BLACKWOOD

The opening lead against the
heart slam was the queen OF
clubs. Mr.. Abel saw six tricks
in hearts, two in spades, one in
diamonds and two in clubs
eleven in all.
The 18th trick would have
to come from a finesse of the
jack of spades or from rufting a
club In dummy. He chose the
latter course. which was the
better choice as long as he
handled it correctly.
He took the opening lead with
dummy's king of clubs, came to
his hand with the ace of clubs
and led a third club. rufing with
dummy's nine Of. hearts. Mrs.
Keen overruffed the jack and led
back q trump.
Mr.. Abel won with dummy's
race, entered his hand with the
ace OF spades and pulled the
remaining trumps. He still had
q losing club in his hand. 1t
had to go somewhere. He tried
the finesse of the jack of spades.
It lost to the queen and down
he went.
There was a much better play
for the contract but Mr.. Abel
was not in a condition to see it.
He should have ruffed the third
club with the ace of hearts.
Then he could have returned to
his hand with the ace Of spades.
led his last club and ruffed it
with dummy's nine of hearts.
Mrs. Keen would have over
ruffed with the jack but that
would have been her last trick
This line of play would have
guaranteed that one losing club
would be ruffed in dummy
without chance Of an overruff
And II the defender with the
jack Of hearts also had as many
as four clubs, 10 tricks were
likely. The trouble with Mr.
Abel's play was that he was ap-
pareAtly going for 10 before
making sure of IL.

Mathews had been on a hit
