Confidence with will to do Will attain success for you. -Old Mother Nature.
Little Stripes, young son of Striped Chipmunk, was doing what he had been sute he couldn't do, so sure that he wouldn't even try. He was doing what he had been aitraid to even try to do. He was swimming. Yes. sir. he was in the Smiling Pool and swimmdng just as Leaper the Frog had said he could. He had been afraid to even try. but when Bowser the Hound had sniffed right behind him as he sat at the edge of the water he had been more afraid of Bowser
I than 0f. the water. Now here he i was swimming straight out into
the smiling Pnol irrhile Bmvsw stood on the shore grinning. I-le could have followed. for he i; a good swimmer. but he didn't want that Chipmunk. He was looking for Reddy Fox.
“What did I tell you?" cried Leaner. Grandfather Frog's smaller cousin. celled the Leopard Frog because he wears a spotted coat.

WASTE!) ENERGY
Today's declarer wasted too much of his energy in bewailing the fact that he and his partner had not reached a different con- tract! Part of that energy could have been put to better advantage in the play of the actual contract!

Obviously. East's high preemp-
tive bid was an effort to keep the opponents from "getting to- gether." East sensing the true state of affairs-that, in view of West's pass the enemy had at least a. gamie and perhaps a cold slam. South's four-notrump overcall was precisely the right bid. This call is tantamount to a gigantic takeout double. and North was correct in answering with five spades. Later, South mournfully wondered how he and partner could have reached the stir-club contract that would have been so excellent for the combined hands. but actually. South did well to avoid landing at six spades. and he should have made his six_no- trump. '
West opened the spade jack — an excellent idea. since a dis- mond lead would have given South twelve top tricks. South. seeing the spade break, did not know how to protect himself. and ended up a trick short of his con-
tract, having simply laid down all -of his winners.
After-taking the first trick with the spade king and observing tho break, the-re was precisely one chance for South to fulfill his contract, and that was through a squeeze play. l-le should have led a low diamond from his hand be- fore cashing the aoel Then. when he ran four clubs and the diamond ace, West would find it impossible to guard both the spade and the heart suits. and by keeping in dummy whichever suit West dis- carded, South would win his twelve tricks against any possible defense. The early concession of a diamond was vital to this line of attack.

He was swimming high
He was swimming beside the young Chipmunk. "I told you you could do it if you would only think so and try. No one knows what the)’ can do until they try. Don't pad- dle so fast. You will tire yourself out. Take it easy."
The little Chipmunk made no reply. For one thing he was both surprised and still a little fright- ened by being out where he couldn't put his feet down on something solid. It was a funny. uncomfortable feeling. For an- other thing he didn't dare open his mouth lest he swallow a lot of water. He was paddling a lot faster than he needed to. but he really was doing very well indeed for swimming for the first time. He had Just one thought and that was to get where he could use his legs for running, not for swimming.
He was swimming high. That is, he had his head well out of water and the top of his back was mostly out. of water. His tail was wholly out of water. I-le was holding it straight up with only the tip curled over a little. Sometimes when running along on the old stone wall he had held ‘his tail up in just this manner. There was a lot of chuckling among those who live in or around the Smiling Pool.
"That's a funny way to carry your tail," said Leaper. “No one else around here carries their tall up while swimming. I suppose it is all right if you want to carry it that way. I wouldn't know." Of course he had no tail himself and it was so long since he had had one that he had forgotten he ever had had one.
The little Chipmunk made no reply. ‘This was no time for talk- ing. -He"was trying his beet to keep the water out of his mouth and nose.
"Chung - rum! Drag your tail behind you. That is the way your cousins do," crooked Grandfather‘ Frog.
"That's no way to use a tall," squeaked Jerry Muskrat to Mrs. Jerry. They were watching from the roof of their house out in the water. "Some one ought to tell him that s. tail is to use when swimming." Jerry uses his tail in the water.‘ You know it is flat on the sides and he works it rapidly back and forth from side to side. It helps push him through the water. It is called sculling. Also it ls useful to steer with. Jerry would feel quite lost without his handy, rubbery tail when in the water.
"it certainly isn't of any use held up that way." ‘said Mrs. Jerry Her voice was as squeaky as his.
Now at that very minute the Merry Little Breezes, children of Old Mother West Wind. came dancing over to the Smiling Pool. lit once they saw that tail. At once they got behind it and began blowing against it. You know it is flat like the tails of all Squir-
it as if it were s. sail, and Little Stripes moved along faster. 1t was great fun for the Merry Little Breezes.
So at last the little swimmer came to the Big Rick. Because it was something solid, and because he was tired, he climbed out on it to rest. He shook himself, tor of course he was very wet. "Any- way I kept my tail dry." said he to no one in particularly. Burs enough he had. And that is more than most other swimmers with tsils can do.
