The bidding:

East, however, was fully aware of his opportunity and, without hesita theton, put up the diamond king on dummy's singleton. The reasoning back of this was simple enough. First, way an odds-on chance that declarer had a five-card heart suit (witness that he had bid four hearts

Fans 3 V Pass Pnoa --West mode what turned out to be an inspired opening lead, namely, the singleton trump. Usually the lend of a singleton trump is highly inndvisable in that it is likely to pick up an honour in partner's hand that might otherwise tnite a trick on a wrong guess by declarer. In this case, however,

it paved the ground for an excellent defence. Declarer establish that he could not hope to dummy's spade sult with only one sure outside entry, the heart queen, bence determined to try to ruff losing diamonds, He queen and led up dummy's heart the singleton diamond: If East had been a

Bo more trumps. If declarer had the diamond ace East's king would be worthless. But even if declarer did not have that eard, East's

king would be made worthless unless it were put to use as an entry, Dum- my's holding clearly suggested that successful defence demanded comTM tinued trump leads, thus preventing diamond ruff

declarer

On that correct analysls East based his play of the diamond king. When It held he promptly shifted back to trumps, and from that point de had to struggle against insuperable odds. He could ruff one diamond in dummy, but this left him with two finesse lost and a heart trick had to loser in the suit, and when the club be conceded, it was all over.

ERROL FLYNN'S

SISTER WEDS

Miss Rosemary Flynn, sister of film star Errol Flynn, after her wedding in Malone, Belfast, to Mr J. H. S. Elliott.

Remember

-Gloria Swanson?

THOSE who remember

. Gloria Swanson at the zenith of her career, when her success in France was front page news, would be amazed on meeting her to-day, for she doesn't look a day over 28, nl- though she is the mother of three children, one of them Gloria, 20 years old.

Miss Swanson has the same Trim figure, twinkling legs, gorgeous blue eyes, pert pro- file, brunette hair with just a faint touch of gray under the temples, and a smooth, flaw- less complexion. The actress has not aged at all, probably because she has refused to. This is entirely significant of her character.

Of all people, she strikes you as the most self-made person

ever came

The daughter of an army officer, she became one of the biggest the names in pictures, was sensation of France and is now coming back to the screen in "Father Takes a Wife."

"I just wanted to go back and do ono

more picture," she said, "my last was so bad. This part is just right for me."

Her New York City apart- ment on Fifth Avenue is the kind of a place where a little. table in front of the sofa holds, in neat array, ten very expensive ash trays, and two very simple but expensive cigarette,boxes. The place is huge and probably swarms with butlers and fifth assis- tant dish dryers. But Miss Swanson, quite correctly, feela it's all hers and she made it all herself. Right now she is in, big business, developing patents. She has a new cut- ting metal that is making loads of money. She has put a new plastic on the market and a new type of dictating machine.

Like all successful people, she is ready and enger to give a formula for a better world. "When I was a little child. In school, I had the idea of an aristocracy, of achievement, where people who built up the nation, who created would not. only, be richly, rewarded with material things but even with honours and titles. Where we could not inherit what others had made and amassed, but whore we would have to strive toward goal of achieve-

TOT all soldiers are good soldiers, and there are times when even a good soldier faila to think of what he is doing.

The Lad from the Elephant and Castle was sitting on his bed, busily scraping at his second-best trousers with a bathbrick.

From time to time he looked furtively about him,

Somebody asked him what he thought he was playing at, and the Lad replied:-

"I put me old suit in for ex- change. It looks a disgrace. We wasn't Issued canvasex when first "we come. I done coal-fatigues and dust-olc ft- tigues in this suit.

"So I puts it in for cx- R.Q.M.S. change, and the sends it back and says there's years of wear in it yet,

"So I'm just rubbing through some o' the thread. barc parts. Then, maybe, 'e'll see reason.”

A HUGE hand falls on

his wrist; another takes the bathbrick from his fingers. The Lad is in the iron grip of the giant Poacher, who looks down at him with choleric blue eyes.

"Ah don't care about R.Q.M.S.," says the Poacher. "Nay, nor nothing. But I'll not stand by and see thee do that."

"You mind your own," says the Lad.

The Poacher smooths him out flat, like a sheet of brown paper, and calmly sits on him as he says:

"Ah wouldn't 'urt thee, Ind. But that gets my back up, like; yon

waste of wool. Listen

Ah lived once on a time wi' old shepherd as we called Key- ked, because 'e 'ad an off-ba- lance way o' walking, like,

She'd found her seven mile. away on 'er back among some rocks.

"Poor Nell was thin and ill. She was dead tired and real bad. But she didn't rest for so much as a sip o' water.

"Dost 'ee understand, lad? That bitch went through all that, and for what? To bring 'ome a sheep."

"And now, what do I see?: I see a man wastin' wool- happen it's the same wool as Nell went out to save,

"And when I see that it seems to me you're less of a -man-than-the-bitch-Nell,

"And I will not stand by and see thee spoilin', out o' vanity and conceit, the stuff yon grand bitch nigh broke 'er great big 'cart to bring tome."

Another man says: "I got a brother in the Navy, convoy- ing wool. Risks 'is life, 'e do. bringin' us our socks and pants.'

"Oh ny," says the Ponchèr, getting up off the Lad and stretching himself. "But gi' me a collie bitch every time.
