Who meets his trouble with A grin!

Though he may lose -will also winfi -Old Mother Nature.

In front. of her doorway in the Old Pasture stood Mrs. Roddy Fox. She had had A nap. Now she was wide awake, Her pointed black ears were set to catch sounds from far away as well as near by. Faint in the distance she heard the barking at .1 Dog. the steady barking of a Dog chasing some one. She knew the voice. It was that of a newcomer in the neighborhood. she knew too that that Dog didnit hunt Foxes, cnly Rabbits. so of course it must be a Rabbit he was chasing nmv.

South did not need any great. amount of luck to take in 12 tricks I -he simply had to mid suit breaks I which were not too bad. The mere fact that trumps broke 2-2 let him I ruff dummy's low hearts and nisrvt ruff a diamond to establish the . latter suit; but the slam still woiiitl hate been there, even if trumps had broken 3-1. if diamonds broke 3-2. Certainly. North-south should have reached 3. six- spade contract. , and, just as certainly. it was North's . fault that they didn't. Perhaps it.' was the part-score that made i North "tighten up”. but his raise to . two spades was absurdly conserva- tive-part-score or no part.-score. It was inconceivable that 3. thrce- I spade bid could go wrong. ' llowever, North had the t-limit-."I to make amends. when south vtveirt. along with the super-timid slam try by bidding three diamonds. North had the values for a. lean straight to six spades! It was all right. for him to stop off and cur- bid the heart ace, but when south then (having done his full duty and I perhaps a shade more!) went backl to three spades. North certainly. should not. have ”quit"! If he want- 1 ed to he ultra-conservative, he could . at least bid five spades at thlsl

point.

He would have been had he had good hunting. so it he was anywhere near when that Dog began barking he probably is right over there now waiting for that Rabbit to be driven out in the open where he can catch it. That is a smart trick of his, but I'm always afraid the hunter with the Dog will find out that Roddy is their and their ." - Faint but clear came the report of a gun. "I wonder if the hunter killed the Rabbit," thought Mrs. Roddy. There was a second hang of the dreadful gun. Into Mrs. Red- dy's eyes leaped a startled look. she listened more intently than before. The Dog was still barking. This meant that the Rabbit was still running. The dreadful gun hadn't killed him and Roddy hadn't caught him. Could it be that these two shots had not heon at the Rabbit but at Roddy? The startled look in her eyes became an anxious look. - Nothing in the world is harder do than to sit down and wait quietly whnn worried and anxious. Mrs. Roddy couldn't sit still. She waited and waited and worried. If only Raddy would come. Where was he? Had anything happened to him? There was another hang of that hated dreadful gun. This time the Dog stopped barking. Mrs. Raddy guessed what that probably meant.

-that that Rabbit had been shot.

But if so who had been shot be- fore; The more she wondered tho more worried she became. would Rcrldy nevrr come?

At long last he did. She saw his sharp lace appear around a turn of one of the old Ccw paths. He was coming slowly. not at all like his usual lively self. when he saw Mrs Roddy anxiously watching him he grinned. It was a feeble grin but it was a grin.

She ran forward in meet him. "What is it? What has happened?" she asked anxiously. A thoutzht came to her. "Was it that dreadful gun?" she tried.
