LE HAN Copyright by the RENOUF PUBLISHING CO.- of Moatreal. nm------------------------ ARTICLE VIL 158--This is 'the most difficult chapter to write, as in it I want to _|cléan up the confusion which now exists, and which is surely spoiling the game. One hears so often of peo- ple sitting down for, 'a game of "Mah Jongg" and being 'absolutely at variance as to the rules of the game. There is very good reason for this and to make it clear I think ths game of "Bridge" taken as a plrallel would make it easy to understand. In playing Bridge the players while governed by the actual rules of the game still have the option of the following: Not counting honors. Counting four in-one better. Counting all honors. ' Playing nullo (Misere), ete., eto. hand or | digol0CE) stead of cutting them. How would it strike you if you found in a Chin- ese book of rules of Bridge: "Before the pack of cards is given out, one to each person, one of the players bas to hit the pack on the top, It is difficult to understand what result this has, but the players all wait for this. ceremony. 183--Without any doubt this Is exactly what has happened in the case of "Mah Jongg." Non-essential side plays have by some accident been assumed to be rules. The rules of the game are not in any way at- fected by the customs which may prevail in different parts of China. For instance: In North China the bonus score for going "Mah Jongg" is twenty points instead of tem, but do not forget in some of the an] cult for a Chinese to explain, wers ling Clubs the bonus for going "Mah it would be all right. t the troub- le is that these people spread about their way of playing as being cor- rect, because. . . ."Didn't we have a Chinese teacher come up, and that was the way he said was 'all right." 167--As a matter of fact, what was the use of the teacher correct- ing their mistakes? 168--The Chinese do not care to have ome teach them "Mah Jongg." 169--Another point: If you are fortunate enough to find a good Chi- nese teacher, please remember how difficalt it is for him to explain In English the fine points of the game. (How would you like to explain to a'Chinese to whom cards were new, this "That finesse did not work!") 170--There is no doubt whatever that here we find cause of confusion in rules. The Chinese knows what he wants to explain, but he seldom has command of the language nec- essary. 170a--There is another source of much ¢Bnfusion. Just as in Bridge books, some are more complete than others--so in MAH JONGG you will find in some cages the. instructions more complete than in others. In some cases plays in the Chi- nese game have beem left out éntire- ly, quite likely through lack of de- finite information. In certain cases, 1 teel sure" that some of the intri- cate plays which are so very diffi- left out altogether for this very AMAZING RESULTS IN GOOD HEALTH FROM THE FRUIT TREATMENT Intensified Fruit Juices in the Form of '"'Fruit-a-tives" Promptly Relieves Many Diseases You have always known that Fruit is healthful. Doctors say '"'eat more fruit." Experts on food and diet urge the eating of fruit. But--{resh {fruit is expensive--and there is only a very small quantity of the medicinal or bealing principle in fruit. Now, a 500. box of "Fruit-a-tives" contains all the medicinal principle of dosens of oranges and apples and pounds of figs and prunes.

Sometimes it is decided the two "high" play the two 'low"; some- times the two "reds" play the two "blacks." In some cases the player who has cut the lowest card is the tiret dealer, but in other instances the players cut again for deal. 160--To pursue this line of thought still further, the various bridge authorities have advancad certdin combinations in play: known as "conventions (such as the "Heart" convention, etc.) Jongg" is fifty points, or ever high- er, by Jrevious arrangement. 164--In playing "Mah Jongg" you have the option of playing with Flowers and Seasons, but beyond that there is really nothing left to the option"of the players, if they play according to rule. Of course, no rule can be laid down as to the stakes you play for, or the limit you decide upon. 166--There is one source of con- fusioft which is going to be very hard indeed to overcome.
