m: those she loves no test is there A mother's courage will not dare. —0ld Mother Nature.

This is true. and nowhere is it more true than smonx the smaller iolks oi’ the Green Forest and the Green Meadows. And nowhere else is true courage tested more often, and seldom so greatly. Every clay, often several times in a day, small mothers meet these tests with warren that is elmost beyond belief.

Farmer Brown‘: boy had made s mistake. He knew that he had made a mistake and now he was uncertain Just what to do. The trouble with most mistakes is that they often lead to more mistakes. usually worse ones. Farmer Brown's boy had seen Mrs. Timmy the Flyina Squirrel carry some of her babies from l. hollow tree stub, in which they had ‘been born, to 5819i)’ in a new home. He had waited and waited for her to re! turn. but she hadn't returned. He decided that she had taken sway the last of her babies and that was why she had not come back. lie wanted to see what her nest was made of, so he pulled it out

A NARROW VICTORY!

It is rare indeed that a team- of-iour match ls won and lost by as little as 20 total points, but that was the case recently in a match between two New York clubs. Needless io say, the 20 IVOIHLS could have been picked up by the losing team on any one oi many deals, but it is interesting lo observe that the victory could have been reversed by the 111m margin of l0 points on the fol- lowing deal:

Both Wests opened the heart deuce, and both dcclarers ruffed East's second lead of the suit. Trumps were then quickly drawn. after which both deciarers led the club queen through East. The m- iler did not cover-end from that point on the declarors wcm. their separate ways! Nawrally, both let the cllsb queen ride, but after it held. one declerer merely tried to guess the present position of clubs, deciding (without any por- ticular evidence) that Bast had probably started with only two clubs. This declsrer now led the club eight from dummy. Whoa East. played the five, South had lo put up the ace to shut out the len, and thus he lost a club trick. l-lls score was 060 points on the board.

At the other table. after the club queen held, South took an extremely simple measure to dis~ cover the opposing distribution: he oaehed the three diamonds, ending in dummy! When East showed out, his distribution was clearly marked ss five hearts (be- cause west had led his fourth- hlghest heart) three spades, i/wo diamonds and three clubs. The only chance, then, was to find West with the now-blank club ten, and on that solid reasoning South led the club jack through East, thus scoring 600 points.

o! the hollow in the old stub and right away wished he hadn't. Yes sir; that is what he wished right away. In that nest was s baby Squirrel. '

Had mother deserted ii? l-lad she forgotten it? l-lad something happened to prevent heo- coming back for it? What should he do? Should he try to put. that nest back and the baby in it? Or should he take that baby home with him and try to feed it and care for it

and raise it for s pet? He long had,

wanted s Flying Squirrel for a pet and this was his opportunity. It almost seemed as if it had been intended that he should have this 111")’ mite now cuddled in the warm hollow of his hand. But "what if Mother Squirrel should return and find her baby gone? H8 didn't like to think of that.

"I made a mistake in pullinl that nest out. ‘Phat can't. he helped now, but I don't. ‘ant to make another mistake. .1 don't want to put this baby back and go off and leave-it to die if its mother isn't; coming back, and l don't want to take it away if she is com- ing back. One thing or the other will be a mistake, a very sad mis- take, and I don't know which," thought he as with the tip of a gentle finger he stroked the tiny Squirrel in the other hand.

It W85 time for him to he going home and he must decide quickly what to do. He had about made l!) his mind to take the baby home when there was a genile thud on the dead stub. Mrs. Timmy had landed there from along glide down from a tree. She didn't pause, but ran quickly up to the entrance to her old home. Some- thing had happened! The door- way was larger than it had been. Some one had iWnkPll it lnrzcr, Not ilosilliilllg a second she dashed in- sldc. The nest was gone and with it. hor precious baby! Frantically she turned and dashed out. 0n the ground below lay her torn nest and close to it stood that frightful tun-legged glam! Wm her baby still in that 119st? Silo sisrlcd down the stub.

Just lhen the giant slowly thrust out a hand toward her and in it she saw her darling. For a moment she stared up in the face of Farmer Brown's boy. In her big, soft, dark eyes was fear, terrible fear, not only for her baby but for herself. In them ton was love, the most wonderful of all loves, mother love. And courage was there. Watching, Farmer Brown's boy saw it grow and grow. Love was making it grow until it pushed aside fear. Little Mrs. Timmy was still afraid, terribly afraid, but her courage became greater than her fright. until she became more daring than ever was great big Buster Bear despite his bigness and his great. strength and his big claws and strong teeth. With a last long look in the face of that huge giant she leaped onto that extended hand.

She rolled the baby into a ball: took it in her teeth gmlly but firmly by the loose skin of his belly while the baby clung to her with hands and feet, jumped back to the old stub, ran up it to the top. leaped and gilded to mother farce as she had done with her other babies.

“That? said Farmer Brown's boy softly, "was the bravest deed I've ever seen. and I never will see s brslver orze." Then, whistling merrily. he headed for home, glad that liter all he had not llBii to decide what he should do with that baby squirrel.
