l Youth is cocky. ursiraid.

Age knows what a price is paid. -Old Mother Nature. Ragged-Ear, the young Rabbit who had recently come to live in the Old Pasture, had smaller. It was Peter Rabbit who had come over from the dear Old Brier-patch. There was a queer thing about that meeting of those two. Yes, sir. mere was a queer thing about that meeting. Peter.was the father of Ragged-Ear and didn't know it. Ragged-Ear didn't know it either. Doesn't that seem queer? Yet. it ursn't. as queer as it seems.

There is a very good reason for it. some children leave home so early in life. even when they are little more than babies, that they forget all About father and mother. Often by the time father and mother meet them again out in the Great World they are grown up and are complete strangers.

It was just so with Ragged-Ear and Peter. Ragged-Ear was a very small Rabbit indeed when he start- ed out for himself in the Great World. Now. he was almost an big as his father. So to the letter he was a. brash young Rabbit who still had a great deal to learn. but didn't know it.

"Are you planning to stay here in the Old Pasture?" asked Peter

"I'll stay if it auita me. If it doesn't, I won't. I'll find 0. piece that doea suit me." said the young Rabbit.

"Aren't you afraid?" adced Peter.

"Afraid of what?" Rugged-Ear wanted to know.

"Afraid to be out in the Great World all alone with no one to tell you what to do and what not to do." replied Peter.

”I don't need to be told what to do and what not to do. I know I can take car! of myseli.'," boasted the young Rabbit.

"There is a great deal to be learn- ed by a young Rabbit who wants to live to grow up." said Peter.

Ragged-Ear tossed his funny little head. "I may not know it all, -but I know enough how to take care of myself."

"Then You know I. lot more than mm of the rest of us," geld Peter tartly.

”Do you live near here?" asked Ragged-Ear, trying to change the subject.

"Not too far from here. I live over in the dear Old Brier-patch. said Peter.

"Where is that?" asked the young Rabbit, cocking Lp his ears.

”Donlt tell me that you don't know where the dear Old Brier- patch is!" exclaimed Peter. "I thought everybody knew where that is." -

Ragged-Ear looked a little confused. iiI've heard of it." he said. "Perhaps some day I'll visit it," said he.

"You better stay here. Visitors are not welcome in the dear Old Brier-patch," said Peter grurfiy and most impolitely.

”They're not welcome here either." rretorted the young Rabbit.

Peter began chewing on nothing at all. a way he had of doing when he is upset. This young Rabbit was

East "had his neck out" when he overcalled at the two-level, and though he escaped without beinz doubled, his rashness should have been even more expensive since it gave South the key to the play.

South, however, was not very keen, and when West opened a low heart, south called for dummy's queen -- no doubt with the hope that West might be leading from the king. This extremely remote chance did not come through, how- ever, and when East smothered the queen. deciarer was in trouble.

Winning with the heart ace. south next laid down the ace of spades, then cashed the ace and king of diamonds. discarding the heart four, and ruffed the diamond five in hope of dropping the queen. This effort failed, however. and now south was reaching the end of his rope. As a final desperate measure, he played West for the club king. but this unlikely possibil- ity did not develop, and down South went.

It was absurd to waste the heart queen at the first trick. Dumrw should have played low while deciarer won with the ace. Surely,
