Mona* brother announces that hr childhood aweeiheart STEVE BACCASELLI, grandson of the Ice and coal flealar has relumed home, Steva disanneared three vears earlier and It was rumored he was in prison, though Mona nr er believed this She meets him on her wav to work one morning. Steve is handsome, well dressed, and well mannered. Mona is hot anxious to renew the friendship, out agrees to dine wttn Steve. Later in the riav she meets BARRY TOWNSEND a voune man of wealth and social prominence. She refuse* Barry’* dinner invitation, toiling him she never makes engagement* with client* or employers. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER FOUR AFTER ]pavlnj? Mona at the . office. Steve headed his car northward with no plan except to gr home until time to call for her at 5, His hand lay on the wheel mechanically, the car responding to his slightest touch like a sensitive race horse. He had not been to bed. Three years of loneliness, coupled with that sense of security provided by sufficient money honestly come by had added a piquant flavor to New York’s night life. Before Steve had gone away, he had seen only the outskirts of that life. Today he could take part and fling foolish gold with the others. And Steve wanted to show Mona Q his Nrw York to which he had ascended. He had acquired an ease of manner, a sense of dress, an air. It stirred his vanjty to be able to show Mona the new Steve, to walk on Broadway the Park avenue way. It was true, as he had told Mona, that before he had disappered he had been involved with gangsters, innocently enough at first, had driven what the tabloids refer to as the “holdup car,” though as far as Steve kne\v he had been involved in no gunplay, i* It seemed to be easy money. All Steve had to do was pick up his fare as prearranged, drive to a certain hide-out and collect his split. That the gang held out on him frequently made little difference. What he received was velvet and his risk was slight. When he came to realize that the g.yig which hirpd him was not bound on pleasure parties, that the cash they handed him in furtive though generous amounts was offered usually after newspapers had printed accounts of this robbery or that along the jewel centers of the town, Steve tried to pull out. He was approached carefully and warned. Leave town and they’d

IN "Promenade Deck,” Ishbel Ross discusses the odd things that can happen to a group of people who held together for five months 1 by the fact that they embarked to- j gether on a round-the-world cruise. Mostly, she finds, they fall in love : —usually with the wrong people. And since they can’t get away from j the people with whom they have: fallen out of love, things are apt to get rather interesting. She gets together a typical “luxury liner” crowd; a young man; Just out of Princeton, a pert little flapper, an explorer who just has eloped with the wife of a dessicated professor, a conscienceless lady on the lookout for excitement, a novelist who aims to sample the drinks of, every port in the world, a redhaired young female who can’t hold her liquor, a prim little schoolma'am from the middle west, a deserted English wife—and so on, until she lias a suitably hectic mixture. Then she turns them loose and watches to see what happens. What happens is plenty, and in the telling of it there is a good deal of interest The book is oddly uneven, for some reason; some stretches are flat and lifeless, with unreal people littering stilted dialogue, and some are extremely moving and convincing. Some of the characters—notably the schoolma'am—are simply stock figures, wooden and inert; others are very well drawn, f All in all, "Promenade Deck” will fill in a couple of hours nicely. It is published by Harpers, and Jt will cost you $2.

get him. Or let the cops get him for a stretch at Sing Sing. “You haven’t anything on me, buddies," Steve insisted. “Yeah? Tell that to the judge and see what it gets you!" They spoke glibly of accessory befqre and after the fact, of receiving stolen goods (this consisted of carrying the swag, unapprised, to the fences; of “ratps" taken by innocent members of their organization. Oh yes, they had plenty on him. So Steve perceived. "Yellow," the gang called him. “Green," rpplied Steve. But privately he told himself, "Getting less green!" . nun IT happened that Steve back in the days before his association with "the gang" often had as passenger in his cab a young man about town whose wavering footsteps could not always make the distance to his club at 1 o’clock in the morning. Cruising about the supper club 7onp in that dull period just after the theater crowds had been cared for, Steve formed the habit of picking up this passenger and dropping him safely at his club entrance. This service was the beginning of a friendship. The night after the next jewel robbery had blazoned itself in morning and evening papers, Steve, driving idly past the club, had seen his old friend in an honest and upright condition waggling a finger into the traffic for a taxi. Steve drew’ to the curb and the young man got into the cab. He was going to South America that evening, the passenger said. To make conversation, Steve anounced he would like to go, too. “Come on!” The invitation was spontaneous and heartfelt. "Here’s the idea, wind up any business you may have on hand and call for me at 11. You can ship as my man. The old boy got cold feet yesterday." The trivial matter of passport could be arranged unblushingly.
CONTRACT m H EXPERTS 6 pi AY IT
BY W. E. M’KENNEY Secretary American Bridte League ''y'HE bidding tactics in auction and contract differ greatly. Don’t think that you simply can apply the bidding conventions of auction and thereby play successful contract. They are two different games, and I believe are best described in two short sentences: At auction bridge you bid against your opponents. At contract bridge you bid for your partner. Following is another of the interesting hands selected from the All-American auction pair championship event.

The Bidding At contract bridge, South would start the bidding with one spade, and from there the bidding would be carried to game, but at auction honors play an important part. South held three aces and only two honors in spades, therefore most auction playefs would open the hand with one no trump, which would buy the contract.

Baggage, my eye! Money? Here in the old jeans aplenty. It thus hastily was agreed.

They boarded the Miranda in the North river, the white stars and blinking moon-the only interested witnesses. New’ York slipped away at midnight from the ship's placid stem. And that was that. Now. after three years, Steve was back, a man of affairs. A partner, in fact, in a prosperous business in Brazil. He wanted to show’ the folks and he wanted to show’ Mona. As he drove north, Steve reflected that he wanted to take Mona to the swanky supper club he had found last evening. She was a knockout, but maybe she didn't have the things to wear. Not that he would mind —but she would. He had been away from civilization for three years, but he knew r women. It was no cinch these days for a girl to support herself, let alone her family. That good-for-nothing brother of Mona's— Steve himself had bushels of J money. Why nftt send her a gown just to wear that evening? It did not occur to him thflt Mona’s code might fail to include the acceptance of gowns sent to her by men friends, however well intended such a gift might be. Steve closed his eyes and thought —as he had often thought—of Mona in a costume really befitting her beauty. That graceful figure. that hair, that creamy skin, the gray-green eyes, the wistfulness of

East returned the five of hearts, which was won in dummy with the queen, West playing the duece, thereby marking him with at least five hearts. The jack of clubs was returned from dummy. East split his honors, playing the queen, declarer won the trick w'ith the ace. He did not take the diamond finesse, but returned the five of clubs, playing the ten from dummy, East winning the trick with the king. East returned his partner’s heart suit, which South won with the ace, discarding a diamond from dummy. Declarer then cashed his two good clubs, West discarded two diamonds, East followed with a club and signalled in diamonds by playing the nine. _ , Declarer now played the ace and king of spades, East dropped the nine and ten. Declarer's play was next a small spade. West threw a diamond. A spade was played from dummy and East was forced to win with the queen and then led a diamond into dummy’s ace-queen, and declarer won the last trick with his good spade. Refusing to take what may prove to be a losing finesse affords a safe way to play the hand. The end play gave the declarer four odd at no trump. leopvright. 1932. NBA Service. Inc.)

Princess Janzara did not purchase Tarzan, slave of Zoanthrohago. Her father, the king, would not permit it.''Very angry, she walked from the throne room where she had come to examine the captive. When she reached her own apartments and was beyond her royal sires sight and hearing, 'the beautiful girl gave way to a frenzy of frustrated passion. Pushing her maids from her she stamped her loot and muttered to herself: “I shall own that slave y i anc* kill him too, if I desire.”

Mona's smile, strangely at variance with its getting— Steve laughed aloud as an idea occurred to him. Go to Pilgrim's and make old Pilgrim dress Mona up! “They don't have anything too good for her, at that," Steve told himself. nan TWO hours’ consultation with Henri at Pilgrim’s did much to deplete Steve's ideas as well as his bank roll. He slipped $5 to the model displaying the gown because her

The king rose languidly from his chair. “Take it to the quarries,’’ he said, pointing at Tarzan. “Tell the officer in charge that it is the king's wish that, it be not overworked or injured.” When the king had left, one warrior whispered to another: “The old halfwit thinks he invented the formula that has been tried on Zoanthrohago’s slave.” "Sometimes I think I can abide his arrogance no long*-*,” answered lus companions.

Tarzan of the Apes was led directly from the Royal Dome to the quarries of Veltorismakus, a half-mile away. A ninth dome was under construction. Toward it wound a line of burdened slaves from the entrance of the quarry. Into this hole the ape-man was conducted. Just below the surface in a welllighted chamber, he was turned over to the officer in charge, to whom the king's orders concerning this new slave were given, “Your name?’’ demanded th? officer, opening a large book that rested on the table where he sat.

Well, well, perhaps the innocent young gentleman knew best. (To Be Continued)

“He is as dumb as the Zertacolols," explained, the commander of Tarzan’s escort; “therefore he has no name.” “We will call him THE GIANT then,” said the officer, “for as such he has been known since his capture?’ He wrote in his book the word for giant. “Zuanthrol,” together with the name of Tarzan's owner and the city where the ape-man had been captured in battle. Calling a warrior, to him the officer Mid: “Take him to the timbering crew in tunnel 13 at the 36th level.”
