THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Is Thirty the Love Deadline? If It Is, They Ain’t Done Right by Me, Is Wail of Elsie Janis.

This is the second of a series of answers to the statement of Will Durant that man is incapable of lailing in love after the age ot 30. The third will be given in tomorrow's Times by H. L. Mencken, famous for his caustic comment of present day life. BY ELSIE JANIS Famous Actress I HAVE never envied a philosopher his power to philos. I have always thought it must be awful to know and understand everything. The greatest moments of my life have been the ones I could not understand. And now, after reading Mr. Durant’s scul-startling statement that no man can love after 30, I feel a great sympathy not for all men over thirty, but for Mr. Durant. I would like to take his hand in mine and ask him gently what happened to him when he was twentynine? Or perhaps I should ask what did not happen to him? that has made him choose thirty as the crucial age when all men give up loving and start lying? Because certainly most oi the men I know who are labeled great lovers are more than thirty—not much over—and if they have their way it will be years before they move on from what is known as the early thirties. Is it possible that because they don’t love they know how to love so well? I can think of three men—if I'm not too conceited —who have been on my side of thirty. And if these men did not love or at least feel all the symptoms, then I’m ready to hand over all the palms I’ve been lucky enough to collect for doing imitations for that trio. They can divide them while I, with my pride in the dust, will be heard murmuring through my sobs: "They ain’t done right by me. Maw! they was only lettin’ on!" ana I BELIEVE Mr. Durant really said men of more than thirty are incapable of falling in love. Well! Maybe the men I have in mind now and certainly had in heart at different times, didn't fall—maybe they just strolled in. I can only say that their service was satisfactory and to me, in my utter ignorance of philosophy and its “uppercuts.” they seemed just as capable of being in love as if they had fallen or even been pushed into that delightful state. Mr. Durant said by love he meant true devotion. Ah! now there's the catch. True Devotion! To be devoted means, as I understand it. to devote one's time, attention, flowers, fruit, or what haven’t you. to someone. Certainly a man of a certain age and a more certain salary can do that better than a younger one. But true? Now' if bv true, Mr. Durant means absolute fidelity, then I’ll agree that he is right, only I wouldn't set any age limit. Don’t misunderstand. I do not mean that ail men are unfaithful, but if it is accepted that “as a man thinketh. so is he,” then I believe true devotion, though much more talked about than the dodo bird, is just about as rare. nan I HAVE been asked whether I think a woman can fall in love after 30. Os course, it takes the average woman so long to reach 30 that she’s apt to be tired from holding out birthdays, but being one whose years have been added up by experts who remember the date of my debut as a star along with the dates of the Johnstown flood, Chicago fire, Japanese earthquake and other catastrophes, and having very little chance of doing any subtle subtracting, T am here to say that any woman who canot fall in love after 30 ought to be psychoanalyzed.

JAIL TERM FOR INDIANA PASTOR | Advised Terre Haute Wife to Leave Husband. I>U Times Special TERRE HAUTE, Ind., Feb. 22. The Rev. Tom Pentecost, 35, in laying out a fine of S2O and costs in jail here despite a declaration that “God will get me out of jail.” The minister in the course of pastoral calls went frequently to the home of Mrs. Charles Owens and told her that as she is the fourth wife of Ow'ens, she is living in sin and against ordinances of the Bible. On the last visit, Mrs. Owens’ husband was in a room adjoining one in which the minister was advising the woman. Owens asserted himself. A charge of provoke W'as filed against the minister by Owens. Conviction in a justice of the peace court followed and the fine and costs were imposed. Without counsel and bolstered with a Bible, the minister ipiled as a lawyer. The court advised him to go back to Kentucky, his native State, where he said the Bible was the only book needed in courts. Despite his campaign against divorce. His present wife is a 19-year-old girl whom he married shortly before coming here. vaccinated or have her tonsils removed. Practice makes perfect, and sometimes perfect bliss. To many women love affairs under 30 can be classed as dress rehearsals. We prepare for war, for golf, tennis. singing, dancing, even drinking before we become adept. Why not prepare for the thing that makes the world go round and round, and sometimes reverse? Very few women have the courage to rehearse without a license so they marry several men. not ail at one time of course < although that would cut down rehearsal time and expenses i, and eventually they reach success. Whether they receive and give true devotion or not is another story, but they will usually assure you that they never really loved before. Certainly after 30 both men and women demand more of love than in extreme youth, that divine period before coordination of mind and body exists. Please notice I do not mention the heart in the combination. for I believe the heart is about the last organ to let us dowm. a a a THERE surely are men and women of 60 whose hearts still flutter at thoughtful attentions, kind words and friendly smiles, but to love with the heart alone must be like trying to fly a plane possessing only a rudder to guide it and wings to fly with if it could only rise to the sky. My theory is that at 18 the heart in its youthful enthusiasm leads here and there, the body following Joyfully, the mind saying I should worry—this is not my affair! Then at about 25, the body says to the heart, pay a lot of attention to me. I won't always be as beautiful as I am. I'd like something definite. The heart says, oh, come on, let’s just browse along. It's such fun. And the mind says, it's about time I stepped in. These two are making a sap out of me. And the mind is right. Twentyfive is an ideal age for most anything, but not in the least discouraged by Mr. Durant’s depressing observations, I say that at 30 the mind says to the heart and body, listen. I'll be active when you two are helpless, so work wfith me. You each one do your stuff, but let me help you. and a good time will be had by all. So let all of us, over the Durant deadline, stick together and prove that lie is not entirely right. Personally, I’m going to keep or lailing in love just as long as I can find someone to rehearse with me. It may not be love, but it certainly is extremely pleasant. iCopvrieht, 1928. Bell Snydicatp.

Declarer in Radio Bridge Game Shows Rare Genius

IT’S a question how many bridge players could have made game with the cards held by the Declarer in the Radio Bridge Game broadcast from Station WFBM Tuesday night, under auspices of The Times. The Declarer, C. Drummond Jones, of St. Louis, Mo., demonstrated his right to the reputation he bears as a keen and resourceful player. He was “South,” the Dealer, in this Radio Game, and made the only bid of the deal, saying one No Trump on these cards: Spades, A, K, 4: Hearts, K. 5,3; Diamonds, A, J, 5: Clubs, A, K. Q. 7. The West player, Mrs. John C. Ohaver, a leading teacher and player of Tulsa, Okla., was obliged to pass. Her cards were: Spades, Q, J. 7. 6; Hearts, 7: Diamonds, K, Q. 10. 9: Clubs J. 8, 5. 2. Wilbur M. Whitehead. North, also passed, on this hand: Spades, 9,3, 5; Hearts, A, J, 4; Diamonds, 8,4, 3; Clubs, 10, 6. 4,3. Wilbur C. Work, East, holding Spades, 10, 3,2; Hearts, Q, 10, 9, 8,6, 2; Diamonds, 7. 6,2; Clubs, 9, also was forced to pass. Jones therefore won the bid for one No Trump. Mrs. Ohaver. West, led the King of Diamonds, opening the strongest of her three four-card suits and correctly leading the King from the King-Queen-10 combination. Whitehead’s hand went down for Dummy, and Jones played from it the 3 of Diamonds. Mr. Work played the 2. Jones, before playing from his own hand, paused to analyze the situation. He could counts eight positive tricks, with a probably ninth in the fourth Club, or a possible ninth in a finesse of Dummy’s Heart Jack. Failing a Club split that would enable a fourth Club to tyc made, or failing the Heart finesse, a ninth trick would be possible if West continued with another Diamond. Therefore Jones, holding Ace-Jack-small, played the small Diamond, the 5. hoping for the lead of another Diamond, which would allow him to make both the Ace and Jack, thus effecting what is known as the Bath Coup. OWEVER. Mrs. Ohaver had noted her partner's play of the discouraging Deuce, and immediately placed the Ace and Jack with Declarer. Therefore, at the second trick she switched from the Diamond suit, leading from her next strongest four-card suit her fourthbest card, the 6 of Spades. Mr. Jones, the Declarer, reading this card as her fourth-best, applied the Rule of Eleven, which told him that five cards higher than the 6 must be in the three hands other than the leader's. Os these. Dummy held two and Declarer himself held two, leaving bi one in East's. Work's hand. To force the play of Work's higher, card. Dummy played the 8 of Spades. Work put on the 10, and Declarer won the trick with the Ace, to keep East from getting the lead. He falsecarded the Ace, instead of winning with the King, to avoid giving information to West unnecessarily. Jones then led the Ace of Clubs, to find out at once whether the adverse Clubs were split 3-2, which would enable him to take four tricks in that suit and go game. Mrs. Ohaver played the 2 of Clubs; Dummy the 3: Work the 9. Jones continued with the King of Clubs: Mrs. Ohaver played the 5; Dummy tiie 4; and Work discarded the 2 of Hearts. Had Work discarded the 8 of Hearts, an unnecessarily high card, it would have been a direction to his partner to lead the Heart suit at her first opportunity. However Work felt that this information would prove of more value to the Declarer than to Mrs. Ohaver, so he chose the small discard. a a a WORK'S failure to follow suit with a Club was a knell to Declarer's hopes for four tricks in Clubs. Casting around for another plan to secure his game. Declarer considered the finesse of the Jack of Hearts.

He had to discard this plan for the reason that if it failed. Work, East, securing the lead, would lead a Diamond, through Declarer’s AceJack and establish the suit in West’s hand, leaving Declarer with no plan in reserve fo>- making the extra trick he needed for game. Giving further thought to the opponents’ holdings, Jones assumed Mrs. Ohaver’s 6 of Spades, her lead to the second trick, to have been her fourth best, which would place her as having held four Spades originally. She was also marked as having hold four Clubs originally. It was safe to assume that her lead of the King of Diamonds was from a suit of at least four cards. The thirteenth card in her hand might be either a Diamond or a Heart. To determine this point Jones led his King of Hearts. Mrs. Ohaver played 7, Dummy the 4 and Work the 6. As Mrs. Ohaver had followed suit with a Heart. Jones at this stage of the game could mark her definitely as having held ariginally a 4-4-4-1 distribution. This information enabled Jones to see his game. He led the King of Spades; Mrs. Ohaver played the 7; Dummy the 5; Work the 2. Jones continued with Spades, leading the 4 to throw the lead to West. This w'ould force West to lead j either a Diamond or a Club, after | she had taken her two Spade tricks. Either of these leads would give Dej clarer the needed trick for game. ; Mrs. Ohaver played the Jack of 1 Spades; Dummy the 9; Work the 3. a a a MRS. OHAVER led the Queen of Spades; Dummy discarded the 4 of Diamonds; Mr. Work the 6 of i Diamonds, and Declarer the 3 of j Hearts. Mrs. Ohaver then led the 10 of I Diamonds: Dummy played the 8; j Work the 7; Declarer the Jack. DeI clarer continued with the Ace of J Diamonds, and Mrs. Ohaver folI lowed with the 9. Dummy discard- ’ ing the 6 of Clubs and Work the 8 of Hearts. Declarer then led the Queen of Clubs: Mrs. Ohaver played the 8: Dummy the 10; and Work discarded the 9 of Hearts. Declarer led the 5 of Hearts; Mrs. Ohaver discarded the Club Jack; Dummy won with the Ace of Hearts; and Work played the 10 of Hearts. For the last trick Dummy led the Jack of Hearts, which was won by Work's Queen, Declarer discarding the 7 of Clubs and Mrs. Ohaver the Queen of Diamonds. Jones, the dealer, won in all three tricks, game in No Trump, giving him 30 for trick points, and 40 in honors for four Aces divided. a a a THE play of this hand illustrates how beneficial it is to Declarer to count the hands of the adversaries. whenever able to do so, and utilize to his own advantage the information gained. Frequently the size of the card led originally will furnish the needed data. When a small card is led. the cards played on the first trick and those held by Dummy and Declarer generally will enable Declarer to determine whether the suit is one of four or more cards. But in this case a King led originally did not show number; it might have been led either from a suit of four or from one of five cards. But Declarer, after discovering that West originally had four Clubs in addition to four Spades and long Diamonds, was able to find out to within one card the length of the Diamond suit, after which, by the lead of the King of Hearts, he was able to eliminate any danger from the one possible Heart in West’s hand. After that, by placing the lead with West, he was sure of his game.

BUSINESS WILL i GO ON STAND:! To Cite Stonecutter Case ■ in Shipstead Fight. Bu Times Special WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.—Walter Gordon Merritt, counsel for the League for Industrial Rights, which worked for seventeen years to get a Supreme Court decision like that in the Bedford stone cutters’ case,' will go before the Senate Judiciary Committee Wednesday to oppose the Shipstead bill to outlay labor injunctions. Merritt will be the chief witness; offered by Col. James Emery, general counsel for the National Association of Manufacturers, who is leading the fight against the bill. Emery will not take the stand himself. Merritt will appear in support of the injunction issued by the Su- "■ preme Court in the stonecutters’ case, an action which has been cited frequently in the present hearings and which was largely re- 1 sponsible for the Shipstead bill. This injunction enjoined union stone- - cutters from refusing to set non- s union stone, meaning that they' must either set stone produced by men who had taken the jobs of striking members of their own union or go to jail. The decision was five to four, and in a vigorous dissenting opinion Justice Brandeis compared ~ it to “involuntary servitude.” CRITICISES DRY POLL’ Episcopal Bishop Says True Condlition Not Indicated.
