He had been hurt. He had been hurt. by a boy who didn't think. Welcome Robin had been sitting high in a. tree, singing ”Cheer-up. cheer-up. cheer-up cheer." as llC La so fond of doing. A boy with an air rifle had spied Welcome Robin, and had shot at him just to see if he could hit him. He did hit him, though he never had the satisfaction of knowing that he did. You see the distance was so great that the shot did not injure Welcome Robin so that he could not fly. But it did injure him enough to keep him from flying far. It bruised a wing.and weaken- ed it.

It was relating near time to think of winter. and where to spend it. Welcome Robin had expected to spend it where it. was warmer than it would be if he remained He had planned to go down in the Sunny South. not as far i'iS some of his feathered friends would go. but far enough to need good wings to take him their. Now he was in douch That win: hurt bv the shot ti-'c'l c::i""'" It wasn't. strong enough for a long flight If he should finzl that ll? rwuldlfi go. w'n.it then? Welcome Robin was worried.

to make up his mind whether to so or stay.

He was in real trouble. He knew that all his friends were going. He knew that they would go just as soon as Jack Frost really ar- rived. because than food would be- scarce. Anyway, favorite Robin food would be scarce. Jack Frost would freeze the ground hard. Then there would be no fat earth- worms to pull out of it. All would go down in the ground beyond the reach of Jack Frost. It would bc.mucl1 the same way with other worms and with insects of all kinds. He would have to live on other kinds of food: certain kinds of berries that stay o the trees and bushes and vines at Winter. If he could find enough of these he might be able to live through the winter. He wouldn't be comfortable when rough Brother North Wind came howling through the Green Forests and over the Green Mea- dows. He wouldn't be happy when ice and snow C)VPl'ed everything about him. In fact. he would be most uncomfortable and most un- happy. But if he had food enough he could live. He must know now. however. whether there was likely in be food enourzh. If there should not be he would have to try in make that trip south despite his weak wing.

Welcome Robin remembered cer- t.nin ash trees. known as the Moun- tain Ash. Some vears thev bear masses of red berries that cling to the tree: throulzh most of the winter. He would go see if there would be plenty of berries this year. Over in the swamp were cedar trees. You and I would not like the berries on the oedwr trees, but Welcome Robin likes them. He would go to the swamp and see if there were to be many ber- ries this year. Then there were thickets in which certain berry- besring vines grew.

"I've got in look ahead. Tve gal to find out if there is going to be enough fnnd I can get." said he, to Mrs. Welcome.

”Sur)nosll'lg that you find there

will be no berries. or very few. What will you do tlien?" said Mrs. Rubin. ' ”I will try to go alone with yo-.1 and the niher Robins. At least I'll start with you." said Welcome Robin.

54 Welcome Robin went in look at the ash trees. and went to look at the cedar trees 'aud went I.) look at every berry-he-arins: vine af which he knew. The more he looked the more he worried. There was goinq to be a light crop of berries. There would be many other; berry eaters, Would there 0i cnwoh for all. and for himself?

Welcome Robin" was a worried bird. and -all because a hnv didn't think. When he saw Welcome Robin fly away. it riirinlt enter that bov'.I head that lust because he wanted to find out how good a shot he was. he would cause pain. and worry and trouble that would last for a long long: time after he had forgotten all about that shot. Much of the trouble

Once Szuth stretched to double one heart for a takeout, he could not "get. off the hook." Obviously, he probed all avenues of escape but what happened was what so often happens in these cases: he landed at almost the wont con- tract. Unfortunately for himself and partner. South then engaged in some bad play. and the result was a 900-point penalty.

West opened his top heart. East captured dum-my's ten with the jack and returned his top spade. Declzirer played the ten: East won and shifted back to hearts. For reasons known only to himself. south conceded both the king and ace of hearts to East. discarding the spade queen instead of ruffing. (Perhaps he feared that East had started with six hearts. but the bidding strongly suggested other- tvise.l

East now led his last spade. Win- ning with the blank aoe. South completed a very bad performance. Instead of leacllniz the king and another club and forcing West. he led a low iru-mp. West ducking, East won and returned the suit. West took out still another round of trumps. then led a good spade and South could make only hlsdl tl'l'lIllJ. for his second trick, and one club. for his third and last trick.

Mlab Hilda Jones, Pownal. lone girl against 10 boys at Dundns Plowing Match.

- Burl Film Lab. Keen competition Continued from page i that he observed a gradual im- provement ln the calibre of the plowing from year to year.

Young Glen Taylor of swath- cons. -won mp honors in the class for boys under 16 years oliage. Taylor is the son of Mr. and Mrs. William Taylor. He ualked away with his class plowing the straight- est furrow, boat crown and best finish.

,1-lis uncle. Charles Taylor of Up- ton won the single furrow class for novice plowmen. Norman Math- eson of Forest Hill placed second in this class.

Senior gang plow honors went to Douglas MacDonald of Forest Hill as he nosed outTrueloveTay- lor of Upton. MacDonald plowed the straightest furrow and best crown while Taylor had the best finish.

The opening ceremonies were presided over by Mr. Leslie Hunter of Dundas, president of the Plow- ing Association. In a brief address he stated that the Association planned to expand cach year and that the directors would welcome any suggestions for improvements of the annual Match.

"The Plowing Match is one of the greatest activities you could sponsor in an agrlpultuml com- munity," stated Mr. W. R. Show in ofliclally opening the two-day event.

He spoke of the development of

the plow as an instrument to turn the sod and reminded his listen- ers that the plow is the greatest instrument known to man in the work of food production. Notoa Improvement

Mr. Shaw noted the great. im- provement that had taken place in the quality of exhibits during re- cent years. He spoke about the the great livestock show, particu- larlyvthe horse show which he called the best in'the Province.

In wishing the directors of the Association every success he ex- pressed the hope that support for the Match in the years ahead would come not only from the people of the Province but also the Government. '

Hon. Eugene Cullen.'Minlster of Industry and Natural Resources wished the Plowing Match every success on behalf of the Provincial Government.

He stated that the high quality work and exhibits shown at the Match were the results of stucw. dlacussl and friendly competition throughout thegpast few years.

He spoke of the facilities pro- vided by the Dominion and Pro- vincial Governments for the bet- terment ot agriculture and urged the farmers to make the utmost use of them. The Minister also congratulated the directors and the exhibitors for their splendid exhibits.

Suggests September Fair

Mr. R. R. Bell. M.I...A.. Leader of the Opposition, suggested that the Plowing Match branch out to be- come a ,Provinclal Agricultural Fair. He, stated that this Provliicc needs a truly agricultural fair and that late l-n September was the appropriate time of year for one to be held.

He promised that he would sup- port the Association in any such effort and that he would-be only too glad to exhibit his shoivthorn cattle at such a Fair.

Mr. George Seville. M.I...A., ex- pressed the wish that the Fair would continue to grow. He also spoke of ;the need for an Agricul- tural Falr in the .true sense of the word. Speaking about a proposed Government grant he stated that he felt every member in the House would support the proposal next year. ”The Provincial Plowing Match is always looked upon as something worthy of support." he stated.
