SHEPARD BIDDABLE SUITS IN CtjNSIIJEHING what consti tutes a biddable suit, we must con- S’.di r ihe number of trump tricks that average to be won by a de clarer at a suit make, and we also must consider expediency, including the fact that modern bidders show thilr own suits over partner, instead of following the ancient custom of letting him play a suit of which they hold only three small cards. in general, ability to win five tricks total justifies considering any of the following suits as biddable: A-Hi y.\ or better: K-Q-X-X; K-J-10; t.i-X-\-X-\; J-IG-X-X-X: any suit of six cards. You may at times be justified in bidding even weaker suits than the above tuinimums, pro vided outside strength is very great.

STATE GROCERY IS ROBBED AT NIGHT Large Quantity of Cigarettes Taken By Front Door Entrance One of the boldest and biggest rob beries here recently was that last night when the StaSe Grocery Com pany wholesale houje at, the corner of Montgomery and Court streets was entered and a large quantity of cig- 1 argettes stolen. It was said by offi cers that 23 tft 30 cases of cigarettes were taken. No definite clues had been found today, so far as had been learned, though officers expressed the opinion they had a good idea as to the robbers. Entrance to the building was made in the front door facing Montgomery street, and directly across from Coop er's Warehouse, where for at least a part of the time tobacco was being brought in for sale today. One theory was that the door was forced and the merchandise desired was gathered at the door, and when this had been done a truck was backed up to the place and loaded. isKLe Crack Florida Flyer Halted One Hour By Defective Cylinder Packing One of the Seaboard Air Line rail road's crack fast passenger trains was delayed here last night between 8 and 9 o'clock for nearly an hour on account of the packing in a cylinder giving way, permitting steam to es cape and leaving the train with prac tically no motive power. It was said last night by the fire man)on the locomotive that the first indication of trouble was ohserved about the time the train was crossing the Roanoke river bridge. 20 miles north of here, but the train came In to Norlina on time. Heading out for | Henderson from that junction point with little difficulty, they reached Ridgeway, where the packing gnve way entirely, and the train came into Henderson on one cylinder, making a terrific noise with its blasts of steam. It was only with difficulty that the train got away from the passenger station here, and stopped at the water tank in the lower end of the yards at the site of the old coal chute. The train was unable to get away again under its own steam, and was forced to stand there until a relief engine could be sent from Norlina to tow the heavy train Into Raleigh. REV. MR.

Billy is only <> now, which means that he was only a little more than 2 years old when no first broke into screenland. Since that time he has appeared in some 27 feature produc tions. a host of specialties a"d a num ber of comedies. He was accompanied to Henderson by his mother. Mrs. Belle Vallie, who has chaperoned him back and forth across the country a dozen times in connection with his movie work and in conjunction with his personal ap. pea ranees. Os all the productions in which he has appeared, he is perhaps best known for the part which ho himself liked best, the youthful ma-stdr of ceremonies in "Sunny Side Up.” in which he played with Janet Gaynor and Charles Farrell. Billie’s first movie was “Lucky Duck. " In his child's memory that was so long ago that he does not even remember the part. Then came a string of comedies, the Snooky series and the Our Gang pictures His first feature was "Niagara Falls.” Then he Books By Noted Authors A ddedA t Perry Library Among the new books at the H. Leslie Perry Memorial Library there are a number of novels by authors of note, several non-fiction of interest particularly some new science books. Lloyd C. Douglas whose first novel "Magnificent Obession” has been ex tremely popular since it was publish ed in 1929 has a new novel "Forgive Us Our Trespasses.’’ It is a similar story although not a sequel to "Mag nificent Obsession.” "Flowering Wilderness” by John Galsworthy is the continued story of many of the characters who first ap peared in "Maid In Waiting." Dinny Cherrell is the heroine and into her love story come many of the emotions and passions of the present day. It depicts the attempts of the English aristocracy to survive a great world crisis. Again Booth Tarkington calls ro mance from the periwigged pages of the Seventeenth Century in a light hearted, hot-blooded adventure of hearts and swords - "Wanton Mally.” A Lively, fast-moving, decidedly ori ginal story is Therese Benson's “Fourth Lovely Lady." Thret lovely ladies put their heads together, but they reckoned without the fourth. They gasped when the fourth calmly announced, that she was going to be come an adventuress. ■Sir Philip Gibbs' “Anxious Days" deals with the contrast between the .poet-war generation and the staid co horts of traditionalism and deals with | was in A1 Jolson's "Mammy.” Since ! then he has appeared in the “Bishop j Murder Case. " “Salvation Nell" and i many other.;. i His latest work was performed in i (he illustrated talking picture "Grow ing Up", made for commercial pic tures. t Billb-, who is as mentally alert as a 20-yrar-Dld youth, takes lo acting nat urally. He played in the legitimate itheatr. in Angeles last spring, ap. ; pearing in “Enemy." and has made a long series of personal appearances in theatres all over the country. He and Iris mother arc now driving I to Hollywood, where they will take | several contracts into consideration. J They are taking their lime, allowing Billy to make personal appearances ! from time to time. I The hoy’s biggest thrill, despite the I intimacy with the host of movie stars with whom he appealed, was the oc ; casion granted him to act as master I of ceremonies in At!antic_Cily during j the summer when he introduced some j fampd athletic characters. For truth i to tell.
