Unwanted, old and lelt alone, The past is all age counts it own. -0ld Mother Nature.
He was alone. the "Old One." That is what he was called and that ls what he was, the oldest oi all the Elk on the High Mountain. He was alone because he could no longer command the respect o! others, and he could no longer command their respect because he was old. so they treated him with scorn, or paid no attention to him whatever, even his own children. Young Elk, iilled with pride in their iirst antlers, which as yet were no more than spikes, treated him with the utmost disrespect and scorn. They were the ones who first called him the "Old One." Now everyone did. ‘they made it clear that he was useless and they didn't want him around.
Not always had it been so. No indeedl Once he had been known iar and wide as the "Great One
When in each loll he bugled his challenge to any Elk within hear- ing to light ior the leadership oi his big band or followers iew, how- ever big, dared to light him and these iew were soon put to illght. Not on all the High Mountain was there another oi’ his kind o! such
lgreat size, oi such strength, with
such wonderful antlers, and such eagerness to use them. Even Grizzly Bear was respectful and kept out oi his way.

It is never pleasing to make a notrump response on a hand dis- tributed as South's was, but South had a little too much {or a pass, and not enough ior a two-over-one club takeout.
West's opening lead was the spade live. Dummy played low and declarer captured East's eight with the queen. The club ten was led and passed, and East correctly ducked. On mother club lead West showed out, so declarer put up the ace and then made East
East returned the spade nine and now. no matter how declarer play- ed, he could not return to his own hand to cash the three good clubs. As a result, he took only seven tricks-two spades, one heart, two diamonds, and two clubs.
The moment South saw the dum- my he should have realized that he would have to win more than two club tricks to iuliill his con- tract. That might easily neces- sitate sn outside entry in the South hand-and the only sure outside entry was in spades! Thus. the obviously correct plan was to win the opening spade lead with dummy's ace and then to lay down the ace and jack c! clubs. cheer- iully surrendering a trick to the cluh king. This would leave South with a sure spade entry. and meanwhile th_e opponents could not successfully attack any other suit.
By preserving his own vital en- try in this way, declarer would have won two spade tricks, two diamonds and live clubs, and

50 the Old One lived by himself i
ily, oi‘ which Elk are one branch, he had grown a new set o! antlers each year. For s number o! years each now set had been bigger, with more sharp points than the one before. Then came a time when the new antlers were a little smaller than the last ones. l-le had to light oitener because more dared to tight him, and it was harder ior him to win those lights and keep his leadership. Then came a day when he battled one who was his equal in size and, because young, was stronger and quicker. That was when he lost his leadershi . his followers turn- ing to the v ctor, and he was leit alone. ’I‘hat was when he became the "Old One" instead o! the "Great One", and began livlnB alone, not because he wanted to but because he had to.
So the Old One lived by hlmsell. when the others moved down from the upper slopes or the High Mountain in the fall he lingered. He was as big as ever, He lelt as strong as ever, though this may have been because he wanted to think so. But he was slower than he used to be and he knew it. Ho was content to spend more time resting than he used to be. In- stead of wandering about snatch- ing a bite here and a bite there he was satisfied to browse his illl with no more moving about than was necessary.
Living alone 5o had made him short-tempered. Living alone, un- wanted and avoided, is likely to make any one short-tempered. It makes talks suspicious. It did the Old one. At the lesst sound he was ready to charge while he had his antlers. and to run when he didn't have them and while new ones were growing and still soft. He knew that everybody on the High Moun- tain probably knew that he was alone and why, among them such iierce hunters as Howler the Woli and Grizzly Bear and Puma the Mountain Lion. They would know that he was no longer what he had been, They would wait and watch for his strength to become less. Sooner or later one o! them would end his growing any older, or try to, and probably would succeed.
He was useless to any one now, but then,he would once more be oi use ior fl. little while, perhaps in the bitter season oi mid-winter starvation, saving the lite o: some one, or perhaps the lives o! several. 1t is Mother Nature's way. There is no continued place i.'or the use- less,
Winter comes iirst to the tops o! the High Mountain. Snow and ice and bitter,‘ cold and fierce winds are there while the weather is still warm and pleasant in the valleys iar below. Gradually Old Man Winter moves down the High Mountain. Slowly but surely ho creeps down the slopes where there is iood enough _ln summer for those who love the high places. but none when he takes , session. Ahead oi him move the mountain folk who cannot sleep the long sleep called hibernation. Among them are the Elk and other Deer iolk. They move down to {ind shelter and food in the low places at the foot oi the High Mountain. 1n the same way when sweat M15- tress Spring, for all her gentle- ncss, drives Old Man Winter bacl: up the mountain they Iollow him back to the high places.
Last 0f all going down was the Old One with Old Man Winter at his heels. No one wanted him but certain hungry hunters. Would he ever go back?
