War on Game of Bridge
. Bridge must go. It it a wartime
edict. 1 ' '
A solemn protest against the game
of bridge and a campaign for its ex
tinction has-been started by promit
jient eastern society women. Mrs.
Charles Cary Rumsey, who was Mary
. Harriman, daughter of E. H. Harri
man; Mrs. Rupert Hughes, wife of
the author; Mrs. Wallace Irwin, wife
of the celebrated war correspondent
and herself a writer of note; Mrs.
William Jay, Newport; Mrs. Frederic
' Tudor, Boston; Mrs. William G.
Slade, New York; Mrs. Joseph Gaz
zam, Philadelphia and Mrs. William
Wade Dudley and Kate Waller Bar
rett of Washington, D. C, are among
the women of national prominence
who are behind the waT waged on
bridge.- , ' . . ....
"We condemn the playing of bridge
in times of war, as a contemptible
waste of time, an evil example to set
and a form of idleness unworthy of
our place as American citizens.
"We believe that by playing bridge,
men and women of wealth and lei
sure give to the exponents of class
hatred a weapon to wield against the
unity of the United States and its long
cherished institutions.
"Therefore, we sign this appeal to
players of bridge who may not have
.considered ' the widespread influence
of their apathy toward the common
weal, to foreswear the playing of
bridge until the end of the war and
, to pursuade others to cease this time
killing, useless pastime," is the way
their petition reads.
Omaha women patriots did not
need the east to set them an example
of giving up all idle diversions. A
year ago, right after war was de
clared, at least half a dozen of the
best known bridge clubs in the city
disbanded immediately, and the young
matrons and debutantes who made up
their membership gave the time over
to war work.
Helen Ingwersen Engaged. 1
Mr. and Mrs. Gustav J. Ingwersen

several months ago is a Yale man and
the son of Mrs. Frederick H. Kimball
of Bath, Me.
There will be no wedding until af
ter the war, according to the pretty
little bride-elect, who was a debutante
of two yars ago and a princess of
Ak-Sar-Ben's court. Miss Ingwersen
is a Brownell Hall graduate and at
tended Mrs. Loring's school in Chi

CHAPTER VI
The Fate of the Submarine.
THE German submarine apparent
ly had come up just for a peek
at the approaching transports,
for the periscope at once sank out of
sight again.
Lieutenant Young circled back to
a point above where the periscope
had vanished, but the rising sun cast
such a shimmer of light upon the
water that nothing could be seen be
neath the surface. Peggy, looking
eagerly down, could see only a mirror-like
sparkle.
On came the foremost troopship,
its decks crowded with soldiers out
enjoying the morning breeze.
The seaplane was so large that it
could not turn quickly. Neither could
it hover over any one point to make
a careful search. It had to fly back
and forth. The U-boat had every
chance to get away before it was
found. Peggy thought of a way to
help. "
"General Swallow, find that subma
rine!" she commanded.
Peesrv looked down. There was the
submarine, as plain as could be, only
a tew leet Deneatn trie surtace. byes
as sharp as those of Peggy had seen
it. The alert young ensign was ready
to act He pressed the trigger and a
bomb shot downward directly at Gen
eral Swallow. Peggy gave a gasp of
dismay and shut her eyes. When she
opened them General Swallow had
disappeared. There came a muffled
roar from behind and Peggy turned
to see a mass of water shoot into the
air.
"Poor, poor General Swallowf she
cried.
"It hitl It hit!" shrieked an exult
ing voice close beside her. It was
General Swallow, half mad with en
thusiastic excitement. He had dodged
the bomb, and it had gone straight to
its mark.
Out of the boiling waters the deck
of the submarine suddenly came to
view. Lieutenant Young headed the
seaplane back toward it. A door in
the U-boat's conning tower flew open
and out popped a sailor, followed
quickly by another and another.
They plunged immediately into the
sea.
Ensign Ward was ready to drop
another and finishing bomb, but mer
cifully stayed his hand. It could 1 e,
seen that the submarine was a
smashed and battered hulk, and that
the crew was trying to escape before
it sank. Man after man climbed out
of the' conning towner and jumped

into the water. They hadn't a mo
ment to lose, for as the last one came
up the submarine slid beneath the
surface never to rise again.
Peggy watched the German sailors
struggling for their lives. Her heart
was alive with pity for them, even
though she knew they had probablv
sent many innocent persons to their
deaths. She was glad that the young
ensign had been merciful, when it
had been within his power to launch
the second bomb and kill every one
of them. She wondered if the Ger
mans could swim until rescue came.
But sit iid not need to have any fears
on that score, for almost immediately
an American destroyer came tearing
up. At once it set about picking up
the submarine's crew.
As the transports passed by in
safety there was a terrific cheering,
