What you can do just do your best And leave to circumstance the

rest. -Unc' Billy Possum.

"He's scared stiff." declared Pe- ter Rabbit. "1! he wasn't he would try to run away."

"No such thing." "declared Jumper the Hare. "I-Ie'a scared. of course. That's where you're wrong Cousin Peter."

”Then -why doesn't he lump up and run?" demanded Peter.

"Because it he did, that Dog would shake him to death." de- clared Jumper.

”Why doesn't he shake him to death anyway?" Peter wanted to know. '

"Because he thinks Unc' Billy is dead already," replied Jumper.

Right in front of their hiding place beside the Crooked Little Path lay Uncl Billy Possum. and standing over him was a big Dog. He had picked Unc' Billy up, once and shaken him hard. then drop- ped him. Unc' Billy lay in the Crooked Little Path just as he had been dropped. He was partly on his back and partly on one side. Not so much as a whisker had twltched. No dead Possum ever looked any more dead than did Unc' Billy. The Dog sniiied at him. with a big paw he rolled Unc' Billy over. He started to pick Unc' Billy up again and shake him. but didn't. You -:ou1d.n't shake to death anyone al- ready dead. so what was the use of shaking Unc' Billy? It was fun to chase somebody. catch him, and shake him to death. but there was

no tun in shaking someone al- ready dead. That is what the Dog was thinking.

"Don't tell me that Unc' Billy is doing that purposely." said Peter. 'He couldn't. nobody could. He lust simply is too scared to move. Folks can be. you know."

"Just you watch Unci Billy." re- plied Jumper. "Ii he is too scared to move he won't move for some time alter that Dog has away. He's lucky."

"Who's lucky?” asked Peter.

gone

"Unc' Billy is lucky." declared:

Iumper. ” e doesn't look it to me." said Peter. Unc' Billy didn't look

lucky. Moat iolks would have said that he looked most unlucky.

"Just the some. he is lucky." de- clared Jumper.

"ll that is what you all being lucky, I never want to be lucky." declared Peter. "What is there lucky about him?”

"He is lucky that it is a Dog and not Reddy Fox or someone else looking tor a dinner." replied Jumper.

Peter thought that over. He scratched a long ear with a long hind root. Then he scratched the other long ear with the other long hind toot. Peter seems to think that that helps him think. Per- haps it does. A lot of people do funny things when they are think- ng. or think that they are think- ing. But for all the scratching of his long ears with his long hind teet Peter couldn't think of any ..-enson why Unc' Billy was lucky. Finally he said so.

"That Dog doesn't care about anyone that is dead: He won't eat Unc' Billy. But l'tedd'y Fox. or Yowler the Bobcat. or Old Man Coyote. ulcl be just aa well pleased wth Unc' Billy dead as alive. He would make Just as good a dinner it they were hungry. If they were not hungry they would any him at! and hide him away somewhere until such time as they were hungry. So Unc' Billy is lucky that it was a Dog who

He scratched his long ears with his long hind feet again. Then he'said "Oh." once more. "Just the same I think he is scar- ed stilt and can't move." said he.

Most jlayers seem to think that it is easy to make the right "pre- ference bld" when partner names two or three suits. Actually. how- ever, this may call for consider- able imagination. Letls look at a case: .

Superficially. North's pass to that contract seems logical since he had 16-3: of spades against only the singleton four oi! clubs. yet, keener imagination would have inspired North to take the contract to five clubs! Quite obvi- ously. South would be !orced in

Observe that, at clubs, South could easily overcome the normal 4-2 break 0! the suit and make live-odd: whereas at spades. the some 4-.2 break was iatal.
