He was the test dancer present, but al' of them danced better than he did. She puzzled that out. He was a naturalborn dancer, but he knew simply nothing of steps—dances.

Brent Brown had found that outiand- (sh, gangiing, vearling puppy of hers —the one he had given her on that fArst day—and he was training It to cetrieve. The pup was the life of the party, madly, flounderingly, pursuing some white objects that bounced and rolled. They were Brent Brown's cuffs.

GEORGE A. DORSEY, As Told to F. Gregory Hartswick. ‘WAS introduced to_psychology in a hard school. “Four of us—I was 14 at the time—used to sit in a poker gome in a little town in Ohlo. We had our sessions each 1 Friday evening, after the meeting of the literary soclety. It was a small game, but ruthless. Among our group was a young fel- low, the son of a local banker. He nearly always won, and got a_reputa- tion as a very good player. One eve- ning we went to his room for the game and found he had not come home yet. We got out his cards and began to play a few hands. Suddenly one of us noticed something peculiar about the cards. They were not the regulation “Steamboat” deck, but had a special design on the backs. We took out all the aces and deuces and examined them carefully. It was not long before we found the secret. We had been playing with a_youth who depended not only upon skill but also upon marked cards for his success! I have said that was my Introduc- ton to psychology. I mean it. Poker is a_cross-section of life. The way 1 man behaves jn a pokér game is he way he behaves in life. And why? In a poker game a man has only one idea in his head; he's going home with ‘he other fellow’s skirt—or lose his wn. His success or failure lies in ‘he way his physical organism re sponds to the stimull supplied by the game. And that's life. The man who borrows a thousand dollars or & hun- |dred thousand dollars on the chance | that he can run it into a million is playing poker—business poker. No man who won't take an occasional chance can expect to get the big re- wards. But when he takes that chance be must be organized correctly. By “organized” I mean that his sys- tem must be concentrated on the thing in hand. Let us suppose that a man goes to a poker game. He has had to make some excuse to his wife in order to get away; he has solemnly promised to be home at midnight. The game runs high. Every move must be watched. But our man has some- thing hanging over his shoulder, so to speak. He cannot concentrate on the cards. Part of his mind is fixed on what he will say to his wife, or how he can stage a comeback with his time getting short. He is drawn Into a big pot with inadequate cards, his opponent bets out; he cannot remem- ber the draw: his pile of chips is low and it is a quarter of midnight. He cannot afford to take the chance, and lays down—perhaps the winning hand. 1 have played poker all over the world. In the Andes of South Amer. ica, in China, in Portugal, on ship- board, in our own Far West. And always I have noted the same thing: the perfectly organized human system s the winning one. I was playing a table.stake game in Albuquerque. Among the players was a_ shrewd, weather-beaten cowboy. There was a good pot on the table: I had three kings before the draw. I drew two cards; the cowboy stood pat. Caref! alid my cards back—I | caught my fourth king! I had pushed my whole pile of chips into the center of the or fifty dollar bet. After the chips I let my right hand where it was, in full view—purpose] Every one dropped except the cowboy He studied my hand carefully for some time. Then he grinned. “‘Well, kid,” he said, “you caught your fourth one, all right. 1 won't {call. You're overdoing that trembling- hand stufr.” And he laid down, face up, a pat straight up to’the queen. He had read me perfectly in my effort to con- vince him I was bluffing by letting my hand shake as I pushed in the chips. As a study of human behavior poker s un aled. In the group of friends with wlom I play th>se days are such men as I T. Webster and Clare Briggs, cartoonists: Arthur Somer: Roche, Charles G. Norris, author; Ewing Galloway, photographer. and Herb Roth, the well known illustrator. Each of these men has his peculiar- ity—not necessarily a weakness, but a physical or psychological factor that affects his manner of play—and his manner of life. chology divides behavior three classes—‘verbalized” be- havior, which includes speech and thought; “visceral” behavior, which is the action of the viscera and the glands; and “manual” behavior, which Includes the actions of the muscles.
