West wasn't sure enough about his heart ace to double seven dis.- monds, but be naturally led that ace - and North-south had to be satisfied with a fierce arillment instead of a. 500-point profit against the six-spade sacrifice contract.

on the surface it appears that North was inconsistent in xirst bid- ding only six-diamonds and then letting himself e fpushed" into the grand slam. ut North'g,post- mortem explanation had consider- able logic. He had not been pushed. he said; he had felt that a grand slam was in the cards from the moment he heard South bid four diamonds freely. and he (North) uad adopted his method of bidding only because it seemed likely that the opponents would not permit a seven-diamond contract to stand unless North acted as though he were being pushed. For that fili- ter (North expldned later). i had seemed inconceivable that the non- vulnerable opponents would fail to sacrifice against either six or seven diamonds; hence. there ,was no point in North's doubling six spades when, by every sign, it appeared that he would have as good an opportunity to double seven spades.

All this. of course. was based on the not unreasonable assumption that south, who lacked the three top honors in his own suit. could not have found a free bid over three spades without at least the ace (possibly both ace and king) of hearts Thus, the only risk North thought in was running in bidding seven diamonds was the unlikely possibility that south had three low clubs.

The plain feet is that south. despite his seven-card suit, had nothing like a tree bid over three species.

'R.eddy Fox and King Eagle are

two of a kind. They don't look it

but they are, Although one wears a fur coat and runs on four legs. and the other wears a coat of feathers and files, they are alike in that they both are wonderfully loyal to their mates. and both are unselfish where they are concern-

iilsook, my what I have

dear, brought you," said Roddy.

' It was the Christmas season, and to some it was a veiy lovely sea- son. You see. it seemed as if the whole Great W0i'ici nao i.-.u .......e pure and beautiful by the snow. But to some there was no beauty. That snow meant to some folks hunger that was almost starvation. It did two things to make l.v.ug for them very hard: it made it difficult. if not impossible, for them to get around. and it hid complete- ly much of their food.

Reddy Fox and Mrs. dy were two of these for whom e snow and ice made living hard. when finally there was an icy crust strong enough to bear their weight, and they could run about on this, they were not much better off than before because the ones they hunt- ed were hidden under the crust.

King Eagle and his mate had not gone,to the Sunny South. They didn't like going so far away from their home, and that was in the Green Forest where they had used the same nest for many years. As long as they managed to get food enough not to starve they would stay, If things got too bad they could leave and go where there was better living. That was one ad- vantage they had over Roddy Fox and Mrs. Reddy.

There was a place where the his River was not tronen over be- cause the river ran too fast to freeze. There Sawbill the Margau- aer. one of the duck tribe, had caught a. fish. King Eagle had made him drop that fish, had snatched it up, and had carried it

There. instead of eating it. and he was hungry enough to eat it. he had kept it for Mrs. Eagle. Be- fore shrs got there. be had seen another dead fish floating in the water and had gone to get it. The one on the stump had slipped off. Raddy Fox, always an opportunist. ' had been hiding near by. He snatched up the fish and made good his escape, He headed for home is: the Old Pasture. It seem- ed to him that he simply must stop on the way and eat that fish, but he didrrt. When he got home he found Mrs. Roddy had return- ed. and he knew at a glance, that she had had no success in hunt- ing.

"Look. my dear. what I have brought you," said Roddy, as he Laid the fish at the feet of Mrs. Paddy. '1'hen,he backed away a little and watched her as she greed. ily ate every bit of it. She didn't

know he hadn't had anything but

one "small mouse.

Over by the Big River, King Eagle watched Mrs. Eagle eat that second fish, and made no move to get any of it himself. Now do you

see how Reddy Fox and King Eagle

are alike, and two of a kind? Both have unselfish love for their mates. Both think of their mates first. Not all of the Green Forest and Green Meadow people are like this. No indeed. some of them are wholly selfish.
