North's first response, based on an excellent, fit and 44% honour-tricks, need no comment. It was South who served a large part of the credit for his choice of rebids. He could, of course, have rebid his good spode sult, but he realized that that would be less informative than tho men- tlon of a new sult, and, with con- siderable strength of his own, he -felt justified encouraging his

Dulcy's chauffeur had been with her a long, long time, and, be- sides, he adinilted being "kindn eccentric" himself so he didn't bat an eye when he saw his mis- tress approaching the car with what looked ke a big Chinese doll in her arms. The young man with her didn't have "slant eyes" so he couldn't be the youngster's
pop.
"His name is Kult Too Chew... Can you speak Chinese, Tom?", Dulcy babbled on.
"Sure! I used to be a Marine," the obliging servant answered. He'd long since learned to humour his mistress-and he did manage to gargle a few words he'd pleked up during the Boxer Rebellion. There must have been some sense to them for Kuh Too gargled something back.

"What does his name mean, Tom -Kuh Too Chew'?" Dulcy asked.
"Squnds like a sneeze to

"A sneeze? Why It does! Let's call blm 'Sneezy', for short!" This last remark was addressed to the bewildered foster father.
'Dulcy's kindly help bridged the gap of strangeness between Gor- den Daly, bachelor, and the wolf who had lost parents, home, coun- Try, customs, and traditions in a tragedy he was too young to un- derstand. He was his foster father's pal the next time Duley saw him.

It was a curious conglomeration of wheels, rods, and wires on Gor- don's work bench that threw Dulcy's "let-me-help-you" complex really into high. All she needed to know was that it was n new and revolutionary type of aeroplane motor which Sneezy's foster father had invented and had been vainly trying to sell. Its heart was the "Daly Internal Condenser" which Gordon was sure would make superior performance possible with fuel a lot less expensive than gnso- line.

"Why, Gordon

Kaufman and Marc Connelly, two of America's best known playwrights, it felis. of the misadventures of a pretty young girl whose "heart is where her brain should be” and who has a complex of always trying to "help" people, with exciting and embarrassing results. Dulcy Ward lives with her brother Bill (Dan Dalley, Jr.) who is going to marry Angela Forbes (Lynne Carver) when the objections of her father C. Roger Forbea (Roland Young) have been overcome. On the pier where she has gone to meet the Forbeses, including the mother (Blilie Burke), Dulcy quite accidentally meets Gordon Daly (Ian Hunter) who has come to claim a little Chinese boy that he has agreed to adopt. Dulcy forgets every- thing else in this new "helping" campaign which involves Gordon and the Chinese orphan.
