\\'.\T(‘ll YOUR CUE BIDSI.

An unjustified cue bid of the nppoilonts‘ suit was responsible for tho bad North-South contract in today's dcnl.

, West opened the diamond king. and dcclnrer had no chance for his contract. Evan if the lead had been diffcrcnt, South would not laavo boon able to stave off attack

i from all sides and win 12 tricks.

y The gist of the matter was that

-_North-SoIIIII should rnt have roe“ w" n dam, and that in doing lo. they passed up the chalice for

\ .. -¢..~~.1 priliiily against East. or a game for themselves.

l North was disposed to criticize his partner for "ignoring the du-

lplicalion of vnlucs in tho heart

jsuit, which North's cue bid in that suit had clearly shown. North llnsistcd that South should have ibecn satisfied to make a slam try hy bidding five diamonds over Enslﬁs four hearts. "Then." North

‘said, "l would have bid five spades. ‘and you should stop—-you had al- iready shown your hand.”

i North was somewhat biased in this view! His own cue bid, foi- Iowcd by his inevitable takeout of the tlirecPcart double to three spades, could not fail to make South Iinaltcrabiy slam-minded. Why should South bid five dia- monds over East's four hearts if there was any chance of not ream- ing a slam? South would naturally prefer to double four hearts! And even if South did bid five dia- monds and North then bid only five spades, South could scarcely assume that he would find North with a wide-open diamond suit.

The simple fact is that North should have bid only three Spades

‘on the second round - that his actual sequence of bidding showed more support than he had.

. ness. Still, I wouldn't want to be a Mouse. Would you?

Now wouldn't you think that Danny Meadow _Mouse. knowing that under the snow he was oom- pariitively safe, would have wanted to stay there? Perhaps, being so used to excitement. he was finding it too tame there. Or perhaps it was his appetite. I suspect it was that. Appetite is often key to fool- Lhncss nnd worse. Anyway. Danny Meadow Mouse was on top of the snow instead of under it. He had climbed up a big weed stalk. dig- ging up through the soft snow. until now, instead of being where hungry cyos could not see him, he was where thcy couldn't help but see h

Betor he had climbed out on the snow he had poked just his head out and carefully looked all about. Being so small and so close to the surface, he could see only a little way in any direction. He saw no one. He climbed out. He sat up and looked. Still he could see only a little farther. No one was in sight. He looked up. Above him was spread what had once been n flower head. Now that head was full of tiny seeds that had not yet been shaken out by the wind. A few had been shaken out by Danny as he climbed the stalk. These were scattered on the snow.

“I was sure I would find some.” thought Danny and straightway forgot everything but those seeds.

Now, while he Had seen no one. two pairs of eyes, sharp, Iiungry- looking eyes. had seen him the in- ‘stunt he poked his nose above the snow. They had seen that weed shaking as Danny had climbed it.

"That's MY Mouse!" said Ready Fox to himself. He was standing without moving. still a little too far away to pounce on Danny be- fore the latter could dodged down his hole in the snow. “Yes. sir, that's NIY Mouse," he continued. “There are other weeds near by and he'll visit 14.059 or I don’t know Mice and I think I do. I'll be patient and wait until he gets far enough mvay from .that hale. Me's MY Mouse." He licked his lips. ,.Not once did lac take his eyes rom Danny Meadow Mouse.

The other pair of eyes watching Danny were those of Roughleg the Hawk. He was sitting in a tree a little farther away than Roddy. sitting so still that lie seemed a part of the trr-c nnd Reddy hadn't seen him. But he had seen Roddy the instant the latter had left time Old Pasture and he knew that Fteddy saw that Mouse.

"Ho's MY Mouse!" said Roughleg to Ilimsvlf. Ho said it fiercely. He was hungry. So was Roddy Fox. It was a queston which was hungrlest.

So Reddy stood still and Rough- leg sat still, and Danny Meadow Mouse ate seeds as happily as if there was no such thing as danger in all the Great World.

"He's MY Mouse." repeated Roddy 'to himself. and his mouth Wntcrrd.

“Ho's MY Mouse,” Roughleg to himself, ovr-r at Roddy.

All the time Denny Meadow Mouse was too busy eating seeds to even look around. But I am sure that had he been asked about the matter he would have said that he wasn't anybodyb Mouse. Ho wasn't-yet.
