The whimsical writings of a famous
Canadian will come to life again on
the"Ford Theatre" presentation over
CKNX, Sunday, February 15th, when
Stephen Leacock's delightful hook
"Sunshine Sketches of a Little Town"
will be broadcast. Picturing a Can-
adian town and its inhabitants, the
dean of Canadian humour said in his
preface to the book when it was first
published in 1912, 'If it fails in its
portrayal of the scenes and the coun-
try that it depicts the fitilt lies rather
with an art that is deficient then in
an affection that is wanting". Stephen
Leaeock's art and his affection for
Canada left little to be desired.

A hand that was pla'yed at Bridge
Club a few weeks ago is one of many
illustrations of a bidding fault that is
much too costly, as well as mueh
common.
Bridge is played with twenty-six
cards on each side, but !tow often we
bid as though our thirteen cards were
of supreme importance, and disregard
the message our partner is trying
patiently to get through our thick skull.
When we see an impressive stilt in our
own hand it seems to seal our mind
against any other consideration.
At si'x out of eight tables the follow-
ing hand was played at four spades.
Retributive jttstiee prevailed, for
South's obvious opening lead of the
diamond queen resulted in defeating
the contract lit every case. The other

scores by bidding four hearts and
