F. Foster, dean of American bridge experts, who lives in Brooklyn, and Mr. Foster agreed One instance in which use of "wig. wagging‘" signals was proved to the general satisfaction of players in an exclusive Manhattan club involved a titled European pair whose consistent and heavy winnings aroused suspicâ€" ions and caused the pair to hurriedly decamp from the country, only recourse has been to simply bar them. Too much success in arriving at the correct contract or a too ob vious signaling system may lead to complications but the astute bridge wolves take care not to overplay their tricks. Most of the important bridge and whist clubs have had experiences with pairs of players suspected of systemâ€" atically signaling as a means of parâ€" ading off with high stakes, and the The bridge knave and his, or pos sibly her, partner rehearse a system ‘ of wigâ€"wags," intonations of the voice, mannerisms, or any hundreds of subtleties by which they can ex change information not permitted in the bidding and hit the bull‘s eye on their grand and small slam holdings. The bridge bid say, "Two spades." The flicking of an ash off a cigar ette may tell the partner, "Five and a half quick tricks." If the ashes go on the floor, it may convey six and a half. mer, the chap who lives well by his wits if he hasn‘t too many scruples to bother him. The game is, indeed, the answer to his prayers.

THE END (By Frank Emery in Brooklynâ€"Eagle) ‘"‘Noâ€"erâ€"I _ mean, _ yesâ€"erâ€"" stuttéred the pilot. ‘ Norah and the two Rawlys joined the laughter, somewhat to the b>â€" wilderment of the pilot. "Well, I must be off," he said rather conâ€" fusedly. "Suppose you‘ve come down to see him off, Miss Seaman. I only wish you were coming with us." He glanced round the broadly smiling faces and added, "I say, what is this gigantic joke? Do let me in on it." "‘‘Tisn‘t a joke, old man," said Glynn, straightening his face with an effort and assuming a very solemn air. "I personally, consider it not only as no joke but as a ~serious matter, and for a very, very serious reason, that Miss Seaman will never travel by air again." Glynn was still laughing at that when the three reached them, and as the pilot advanced and shook hands heartily with Norah and was introâ€" duced to the Rawlys Glynn had to pass on the joke. "He has just been pointing you out to me, Norah," h* said, still chuckling over it, "as one of the passengers who came out with me, and asking me if by any chance I remembered you." "Well, I‘m dashed," was all the pilot could say. "Hullo," he went on as he saw the Rawlys and Norah apâ€" proaching. "Here‘s another of the passengers who came out with you A Missâ€"Missâ€"yes, I remember now â€"â€"Miss Seaman. D‘you remember her Glynn?* l Flying Courier as he‘calls it; and, second, because the Prince is â€" well, he is a Prince, and in every sense of the word." Delicious Quality SIGNALS JAPAK GREENM Mr. Foster chose to announce his finding then and there in the card room, and if the scene was lacking anything for the next few minutes, it wasn‘t action. _ ‘"When one of them binked once, it was to call the spade suit, Then a pause, and the next blinks would indicate how many honors were held in the spade suit. If the first of these blinks was just a little bit long, it meant top honors. Then another pause, and two blinks to say the heart suit was being flashed, then some more to enumerate the honors. Then three blinks for the diamonds, and loJ on, and four for the ciubs." "When I knew what to look for, it wasn‘t very hard. What information they were exchanging was given by blinking the eyelashes.

It is »vident that this plan of préliminary visiting and gradual inâ€" troduction to the school group is of benefit to the child, the parent, and the school in several ways. The adults and the : children have a chance to become acquainted with one another and with the school situation, and to discuss their mutual aims for the child.
