But if you live in the country the word "termites” is almost like a fire alarm. One of my friends had termites in his house and it cost him $2 000 to have ;hem eliminated. So when the county agent told me I had termites (or rather that my house had termites) I almost fainted. It just so happens that I haven’t any S2.000 handy right now. However, he added that since our house is very old. it is likely that the termites have been j there so long that they have probably done all the harm they | will ever do and not to worry j too much about them. He gave ! me a series of treatments that won’t cost any $2,000 but will probably cause an awful stink.

will put him in a New Jersey Zoo. together with the acouchy, the bassaricyon and the philander.

But this pangolin was just I rought from West Africa by a J >uple of Piinceton students who <

The pangolin has a 14-inch tongue and, whenever he can get them, eats all the termite eggs he can get hold of. I am thinking very seriously of trying to hire him from the two students and letting him loose in my house. Except that he is such an awful looking thing that my wife almost fainted when I showed her his picture. (She just told me that this pangolin is not a he but a she. You will excuse the mistake.) The boys have named her Feema, and until they can get enough termite eggs they will feed her rice, chopped meat and raw r eggs. .

is a shame that a grown up columnist should bother about little thinks like termites, yem may now turn back to Page One.

"No sooner do I learn a gevod rule than I have to start learning the exceptions. And the exceptions are harder than Uk

rules.”

"That’s because the exceptions require a bit of thinking.” re plied Mr. Champion brut.i'ly. Actually, if we could learn t< bid by some method of counting with no exceptions., or t< play by seme set of rules, wit! no exceptions, then the gi-.n would soon lose its chief fascina tion which is its infinite vai iety

SHIFT IN OKDEK In today's deal Mr. Meek led the seven of clubs in response to his partner’s overcall. Mr Muzzy won with the ace am noted the fall of the king on hi.left. Clearing a shift was in order at this point and oven Mr. Muzz - realized the right shift was to a diamond. TTm ejuesfion was which diamond? For a moment, Mr. Muzzy fingered the deuce, his fourth highest. Then he remembered Mr. Champion had recommended the lead of a card just lughei than dummy’s highest, in a situa tion of this kind. With a knowing look, h? lor he nne spot. Mr. Champio 1 tucked and poet Mr. Meek won ”i‘h fho 1,0 If h- • (_l !e ; )c he would set up the king.

DESPERATE !!'’ \CT Desperately he led a heart hoping Mr. Muzzy held the king nd would come through the diamonds again. But Mr. Champion non, drew trumps and parked a diamond on dummy’s fourth leart to make his contract.

If Mr. Muzzy had held anothrr entry (ray the king of hearts) he could have affo”dcd to load i little diamond at trick two. Towcver. he was in the lead for he last time and f om the looks •f dummy it should have been Tear that any tricks the deenders could win had to be takn immediately.

The important thing was t< we vent Mr. Meek from being ocked in. There was nothing to be lost by leading the jack of diamonds.
