South's four-club sail was of course compeiely unjustified be- cause of his shaded opening bid. and North could not help being misled. South should have been more than satisfied to bid only four spades over North's raise to three.

West decided that the oppo- seats must be solid In ta-umpl. so he led his singleton rather than jeopardise any one of his honors. East put up the ace and returned a trump. letting South hreak suits for himself. South drew East's last trump. cashed three elub tricks and ruffed a club- Iad finally handed a heart triek

pine tree over in the Green For- est. Just a little way from him in another pine tree was Sammy Jay. Sammy wasn't holding his tongue. Sammy was screaming at the top of his lungs, "Thief! Thiefl Thiefl"

At first Blacky didn't know who was being called a thief. He prides '” " on the ' of his eyes, and he has reason to pride himself. But this time Sam- my Jay had seen something that Blacky had missed. In a mo- ment now he saw what it was. He saw Hooty the Owl lighting in another tree. He looked down on the ground in a little ' ,, below him. in it was a mossy old log. Blacky knew all about that old log. He knew that was the log on which Thunderer the Grouse liked to strut and drum. Many times Biacky had watched Thunderer doing these" things.

over to the opponents. sheepishly acknowledging defeat.

There was good reason for South to feel that he had bitten off more than he could chew. but he nevertheless gave up too easily. There was a possible break of suits which would produce the

contract, and so of course South should have played for that break. The one chance was to find

either defender with at least four cards in hearts and in clubs. To 9133 Olldi South should have cashed the diamond ace and ruffed a diamond; then gone back to the trump Jack and ruffed the last diamond. After this, if he simply went over to he club ldng and cashed dummy's last trump while discarding a heart from the clog. Gd hind. West would he squeez-

Ridtt now he wasn't er drumming. No sir. he wasn't do- ing either of these things. He was fighting another Grouse. In fact it was this fight that had brought Blacky and Sammy Jay over there. They never miss anything exerting if they can help it. Now the fight had brought llooty the Owl. and Blacky knew that it wasn't excitement that had

brought llooty over. It was the

hope of catching one or both of

M first lllacky didnit now who was being called a thief.

"It is of no use for me to warn them," thought Blscky. "If they don't hear Sammy Jay, they certainly won't hear me." So Blacky kept his tongue still. The fact is. he was afraid of liooiy the Owl. Blackyiknew well what a lot of people seem not to know -that Hooty the Owl can see about as well in daylight as he can see at night. Just as Hooty lifted his great broad wings to swoop down on those fighting Grouse, Blacky saw some one else coming over the tree-tops. Now he had more rea- son than ever for keeping his tongue still. That was Terror the Goshawk who was coming, and no member of the Hawk family is more feared. It looked very,

soon be missing in the Green Forest. In fact. it looked as if there might be two Blacky didn't believe that either of those fighters had a chance in the world. Right then there was an ex- plosion. At least it was a sort of explosion, a feathered explos- ion. It was Mrs. Grouse spring- ing into the air with a roar of stout wings that to say the least was startling. She almost brush- ed ' t those two who were fighting. This was a warning they couldn't miss. Instantly there were two more feathered explos- ions. Thunderer. on equally noisy wings. disappeared after Mrs. Grouse as they dashed in among, and dodged around trees. The other Grouse flew in another dir- ection. Hooty the Owl swooped. but he was just too late. Terror shot after the handsome young Grouse, but he couldn't dodge in and out among the trees as the young fighter did. Sammy Jay kept still and out of sight. So did
