T. S. Darrah Carl Sandburg tells this story, Henry Clay the famous congressman from Kentucky had a penchant for playing cards. One day a Wemean from Boston (in stor ies Boston women always ask such questions) asked Mrs. Clay, “Doesn't it distress you to have Mr. Clay gambling with cards . And Mrs. Clay answered, “Oh, dear, no! He most always wins.” Mrs. Clay seems to imply that you are not gambling if you know what you are doing and if you don’t know what you are doing well? You had better not shuffle the pasteboards. That might be true of more game than cards too! Love and a college career need players who know what the game is about. Darrah
