What are we going to do now with spring here in all its glory?” And with his usual quick wit, he came right back with. the darn thing outdoors!” And I said just as quick like, “All right, now we're out- doors! What'll we do now?” Now Chet’s a pretty smart fellow and he’s “just a real good golfer,” that is, he’s a centenarian (goes around in about a hundred), and he said, ‘Well, why Jon’t you tell them about Bridge Golf?” “Sounds good. What is it, playing golf on a bridge?” Ignoring my feeble attempt at levity, and also the lunch check, he continued. “Suppose you've got a fourso first hole is a par five. A bic on that hole, meaning that he bets one kopek that he can make the hole in seven B bids a six and C bids a five. x doubles him. If C makes the hole in five he gets two kopeks from each of the other players.” “Why two2” “Because he he gets an extra making his con would be four kopeks.

Georce W. Ciupman has already M discovered new ways of playing Mah Jong, which have given the game an extra thrill or two. Unlike the Chinaman who is apt to be cautious, Mr. American likes a thrill and gets a great deal morc stimulation out of a “long shot.” This recklessness has begun to crop out in Mah Jong, and while it is apt to lx 1 gambling game, certainly deal of interest. of the clubs, now, sequences ause they are too eas) “r can Tun out in very simply means that the players agree to try for nothing but that, and that a player cannot go Mah Jong with any- thing else. This kind of a game results in many “draws,” that is, the wall is depleted and no one goes Mah Jong, but it is much more exciting. The “All one suit” game is even harder but is very popular. In this game, a player cannot go Mah Jong unless he has a hand containing all one suit, not ever honors. Like the other game there arc even more “draws,” but then us Americans do like to try for big things! We hope that none of our readers will play this way “for keeps,” though. unless they are willing to lose the family silver, the house and lot and the flivver!
