Whitefoot would laugh at anyone being afraid oflthe dark- . ness. of .0ver in the Green Forest when "the Black Shadows came creep- ing through to the lonesome part where even in daytime it is dark. a young Grouse part way up in a big hemlock tree was more fright- ened than ever, although he thought he had been as frightened as any- : one could be. Even though his -. mother was close beside him on 'tbe same branch he was too fright- nnad to sleep. This was because 4 of the frightening neighbors they llld. Hooty and Mrs. Hooty. the ” biggest members of the Owl family 7-and fiercest of fierce hunters, were making their home in that lone- ” some part of the Green Forest. All ; the afternoon the young Grouse had them in a neighboring tree. '. ,0! course they didn't know he was h'thero. Most of the time they were alseep. But when the Black Shad- ows came through the Green Fon- ast. Hooty and Mrs. Hooty were very much awaka. They really are ,.. night folk- It is at shadow time 3;: they lovs best to hunt.

The young Grouse saw them start out hunting. He was sure then that they would find him. liven when mother came luck late that afternoon he hadn't been able to feel really safe. Now as be heard the hunting call of those two Owls it frightened him as he never had been frightened before. He had often heard them give that

ft-ightening call. but it was always .--'st a distance. Now he heard it .-aloss at hand when they first start- .ad out. The young Grouse was ' "sure that he didn't sleep a wink 1' all night. Of course he did. Really ' slept most of the night. But i he did wake up now and than and every time he was sure that he had been wakened by one of their big fierce hunters with the great broad wings. Once Mrs. l-footy booted from the very next tree, THE eyes of the young Grouse flew Vldi Open and he almost fell from the branch he was sitting on. After that. every little sound he heard he was sure was made by one of those two feathered hunter; looking for him. It was the most 'w'"l night he had ever spent.

Still. it uas good to be able to see and not have that dreadful feeling that unseen danger was close at hand Danger that cannot be seen always seems worse than danger that can be seen. And the thing that the young Grouse couldn't understand at all was that mother didn't seem to have been at all frightened through that dreadful night. He just didn't understand it.

Some experts would elect to open the South hand with one notrump, and there is something to be said for this approach. but let's assume that South starts off with the more routine one-spade bid.

tract should be. If North does what so many players habitually do- tbat is. if he repeats his strong preference for a spade contract.- North-south will show no great pnr fit in this daal. Whether South car- rias North's three-spade preference to four spades. or whether he takes a conservative stand and passes at three spades. the part- ners will lose the only game they could have made, namely, three no-trump.

If. however. North is more com- petent. he will realize that South's notrump suggestion is sound for the combined hands. Most partic- ularly, North will realize that his minor honors in diamonds and clubs. and even his 10-9-3 in hearts. have far greater potential value at notrump than at a spade con- tract. He will further realize that his possession of five cards in spades will certainly be no liability at notrump: Sould could have a four-card spade suit, and North woud then supply an extra trick in spades. Finally, North will give due heed to South's implication that a ten-t-rick contract may be too ambi- tious. and since North must agree with that thought. he should raise to three notrump instead of again suggesting a spade contract-

others heard about the affair, they wanted to attend. They said they wished to study the history and behavior of twins.

Originators of the idea vetoedi the idea of having a scientific in- vestigation made out of it. They said the meeting was strictly ”for fun". A compromise. however, was worked out by the formation of Netherland Twins. a group willing to permit studies to be carried out with their co-operation.

Amusements in the Dutch town might be difficult to find ordinar- ily, but when the gathering of twins was held there was plenty going on. The guests took part in various contests in which the old- est. youngest. most musical. most and most unlike twins In looks were judged One pair of twins played 64 instruments.
