Now Mr. . having received a heart bid from his partner, was practically certain that he held a grand slam, and jumped | at once to seven hearts. (We believe Mr. Peese made a somewhat hasty de- cision, as he did not stop to think of the possibility that the opponents might sacrifice. In his position we would not have raised hearts, and would have proceeded cautiously., In fact, our bid would have been only four diamonds. It was very unlikely that this bid would have been passed by all the players at the table. And, while we cannot prophesy what would happen, we venture to say that North | and South would have bid up to at least five spades, and Miss Bonwit would have doubled. That would be the cue for Mr. Peese to jump to a grand slam in diamonds, and it is un- | likely that his opponents would have | defended.) As it was, after Mr. Peese's seven- heart bid the bidding reverted to Mr. Power. While he held two aces, he knew that his aces were probably no good C‘dfensively. After mature de- liberation Mr. Power decided that the safest course to pursue was to make the sacrifice bid of seven spades, which he proceeded to do. He was well re- warded when the penalty amounted to only 500 points. (Copyright, 1937.)

In all parts of England people are singing a song from the United States which King George sang with Boy Scouts in a camp in Southwalk in the Summer. It is about the spreading chestnut tree. Errand boys are sing- ing it and grown-ups hum it. Nobody knew who wrote it or where it came from until the Scout headquarters in London revealed that when one of the camp chiefs, Capt. E. Gidney, heard Scouts singing it round a camp fire in the United States he took it back to London with him and introduced it at & Scout training camp at Gilwell Park. It spread to other camps. Then the King popularized it. or' OH!! PEw- TER -~ Pgyy . INE BEEN CALLING MOPSY BY GLADYS PARKER. TeRy | | THERE'S TW' ¥ CALL OF J. PEWTER MUGG, T WILDY WHERE ARE YOou©?
