Unc' Billy Possum was watching pnckly Porky the rorcuplne eat- mg one of his favourite ioody. lt was plain to see that he was en- lgylrig his breakfast. or dinner, or mpper, whichever it was. or per- haps it was just a lunch. Prickly Porky, like most other Green Por- ist iolk. has no regular mealtimes.

"The time to eat is when I am ..,,.,,g,-y," says Prickly Porky. That 5 Just when he does eat be it morn- mg, noon or night, Usually he is nungriest at night. Most oi his neighbors agree with him about rating when they are hungry and in: at other times.

Prickly Porky was Just a little way up in a big tree. Unc' Billy Possum squatted on the ground be- low watching. Prickly Porky was rating bark. His great yellow front teeth made easy work at stripping iii the bark. -

"ls bark all yo' eat, Brer Porky?" irked Unci Billy.

”No, or course not. Do you live on lust one kind or food?" grunted Prickly Porky. He was talklnx with his mouth rull, which. oi course is something no one should do. It isn't polite. But Prickly Porky isn't 1 polite sort oi person anyway.

Unc' Billy Possum grinned. "Ah Ihollid say not," he replied. "Ah reckons that anything Kood for inmeone else is good io' me. so ah lats most anything Ah can find."

prlckly Porky went right on eat- ng. New and then he gninted with satisfaction. He was enjoying his an-nl. There was no doubt about hat.

"Ah've never tried bark. but it nust be good." thought Uric' Billy. iAh've tried most everything else out An would have to be awful iungry to eat bark."

"won't you come and Join me?" nviteti Prickly Porky.

Uncl Billy looked at the thousand little spears peeping out of Prickly Porky's coat and listened to the rustling oi them when Prickly Porky moved. He grinned again. 'Ah reckon Ah'm not hungry. B.-er Pnrky," said he. "Thank you lust the same." .

Now watching other people eat. especially when they seem to be enjoying their iced. is one oL.th: surest ways 0! stirring up an ap- petite, Unc' Billy began to be hungry. He lookedinround to see what there was he could eat, but there-wasnlt anything right there. That. is there wasn't anything un- less he tried what Prickly Porky was eating. Unc' Billy is one of those willing to try anything once. That is how he has learned to like many dii-lerent things. He sudden- ly made up his mind to llnd out lust how good the bark or a pine tree could be. He walked over and stood up at the loot oi the big pine tree in which Prickly Porky was eating. He reached up and pulled oil A big piece at scaly bark. Then he tried to eat it, He promptly spit it nut. it was hard and dry and taseless. He wondered how in the world any one could eat anything like that. He said as much to Prick- ly Porky. He prlckad up his ears. llad that stupid follow up in the tree chuckled? It had sounded like ii. "i don't eat that atuil." said FY1031! Porky. "I! you had looked around. Brother Possum. you would have seen that outside bark ivinlz around on the ground where i'w dropped it. It is the inside bark that I eat. and that is good.

"Is bark all yo' eat, Bre(rWPolrkey?" asked Unc' Billy,

Just you try it."

Uno' Billy shook his head, "No thanks, Brer Porky," said be, "An "CR0" MY" 16': yo' have all the bark. Yes. Biih. Ah reckon Ah will. All Ah can say is. yo' must be aw. fully hungry." Then Unc' Billv went oil to look for something that would suit him. He found 3 (at worm and smacked his line over it. Prickly Porky would have turned up his nose at that. He would have no more understcoci how Unc' Billy could eat worms and enjoy them than Unc' Billy could understand how he could eat bark. Then Unc' Billy went'looking for some fruit or some meat, anything but bark,

It is not at all rare that a de- clarer has this trump situation; six to the Q-.1-9 in his own hand, with only a low singleton in dummy. Thus, it pays players to learn the proper handling oi such a suit. (Perhaps the best way is to lay out the possible uieu the missing six trumps. and try out various methcds.) observe South's improper technique in "the iollowlng deal: .

South dealer. Both sides vulnerable.

south should have accepted one three-notrump contract. and Norm would then have had little trouble. True. south should have made (our spades-but he didn't.

West opened his lourth-highest diamond. and since south hoped (or 5 quick entry to dummy. he put in the Jack. When that card held, he led the singleton trump. East played the three, and south correctly tried the ilneese at his own nine-spot. This was the best chance to hold down the loss,in the trump suit, but when West took the trick with the ten and led another diamond. won by the king. South went wrong. As so many other players would do. he selected the trump queen ior his second lead of the suit,

west naturally ducked. and nut won with the now-blank king.
