CONCERNING IINESSEI

It is n curious iact. that new pllyers take tinesses which are quits unnecessary, but shy away itmm other iinesses which may be vital. Consider this csse:

l South denier. But-West vulnerable.

North should have responded is probable that the llme six- spsds contract would have been reached.

Ii’ West had happened to lead n club. deolarer lwduld have been mirtualiy iorced to play the hand correctly, but. luckily ion- his own side. West chose to attack in the heart suit. Alter studying dum- my for a. moment, South saw nothing to be gained by iinessing the heart queen, so he put up the ace, drew two rounds n! trumps, Lhen set out to establish the dis- mond stilt. Obviously, he thought that he would give up a trick in that suit, and then discard his two losing clubs on the fourth and iiith diamonds. He was in for s rude shock when East showed out. and it became know that West had two stoppers. Nothing could now save South from losing s dia- mond and s club.

South was a bit guilty when he declined to take the heart finesse at ‘Prick ii What harm could it do to play the hear-g queen, even if it lost to the king? Certainly. neither delender could have a singleton heart - the oth- er, holding nine hearts in that case. presumably would have made some bid! So, to repeat,‘ even u the iinesse lost it would cost noth-

For the first time in their lives they were seeing Bugle: the Elk. next to Flathorn the Moose the largest oi the Deer iamily. 'I'hey hadn't dreamed that anyone could be so big. Before this they never had seen anyone larger than Lightioot the Deer. Now they had the ieeling of having themselves suddenly grow small. Watching this great neighbor strutting and showing oi! how big and handsome and strong and unafraid oi any- cue or anything he was made them ieel no bigger than Danny Meadow Mouse instead oi being about the size o! Jerry Muskrat as they real- ly were. Bugler had pawed the ground, tearing it up. with his l-ioois. He had beaten down bushes and very young trees with his great antlers. He had boasted.

Yes. sir. he had boasted that he was airaid oi noone, and in the pride ot his size and his strength

he had bugled a challenge to any one within hearing. Oi course he didn't really blow a bugle. but the high clear notes oi his voice as he dared any one to fight him sounded much like a bugle and could be heard a. long xvay.

At first there had been no reply. Then most, unexpectedly s reply had been bugled from not so iar away. It had ended in a deep grunt. It was right then that Musky and .\irs. Musky felt that scary comething-about-to-happen !eellng_ and wanted to both run away and yet to stay. They stayed.

At the sound oi that others bugle Bugler's eyes had grown red with rage, but at the sound o1 that grunt a look very much like doubt appeared in those anery eyes oi his. However he gninled a reply l a he did his best. lo make his deeper and more threatening than that he had just heard. Then he started in 1h» direction irorn whirh that. other tinire. had come. i Al the edge of lill npeliilip among: ithe tries he Flnppvvi.

Big as Bugier was, and he really was big, the other has just as big.

“What are they going whispered Mrs. lviusky.

"Fight." Mushy vrhtspered back. He was trembling, but it was more from excitement than iear.

"What. for?" asked Mrs. Musky. She was as excilvti as was he.

"How should I knmr?" replied Musky testilv. "Whnt do any iolks fight for?"
