AN OLD PASTIJRE WELCOME

No greater blsssing life attends Than fsithfuinsss of loving frisnds. -Old Mother Nature. . . . Mrs. Reddy Fox had made up her mind. It hadn't been made up in a hurry. Mrs. Roddy would tell you that there is nothing more foolish than to make up ons's mind in s hurry in a. matter of real import- ance. Noihtng leads to so many bad mistakes as unnecessary hurry. so Mrs. Reddy had been slow to decide that. she and Roddy should move from the Old Pasture and dig a new home some distance away. It was a trap that had de- cided her It was the third one that she and Reddy had found re- cently in the Old Pasture near their home. she had almost step- ped in this one. It was just good luck that its cruel steel jaws had not snapped together on one of her legs. she had uncovered that trap and sprung it by slipping a paw under it and flipping it over. She had shivered at. the ugly sound of those wicked jaws when they had snapped together on nothing. The Old Pasture would no longer be a :..:..-EE-.-:E--

It was South, of course. who was largely responsible for the catas- lroplilc outcome of the four-spade ”sacrifice". His three-spade over- call of three hearts defied the ox- celient "rule" for such situations- lhe Culbertson Rule of 2 and 3. Under this yardstick. ii. vulnerable player should not risk a penalty of more than two tricks. (Not vul- nerable. thc risk should not exceed three tricks.)

South's hand. realistically evnlu-p ated. was worth four tricks in spades with that suit trumps) and about one trick in clubs. and this left. him distinctly short of what. he needed for a nine-trick con- tract.

North's raise was also rather optimistic. but if South's bid had been justified. the sacrifice might have been profitable.

'The defenders took full advant- age of their opportunVyl West. led the heart ace and continued with a low heart. East won and shifted to his lowest. club. West captured deciarei"s ten with the no and re- turned the club deuce; East put. up the king and continued the suit. west rufiing South's nine.

To map out the remaining dc- fense ss clearly as possible. West. carefully led the diamond five (in- stead of the jack) because he did not want, East to hold up the ace if he had that card (which was iirtusily assured from his three- heart bid). Esst naturally put up the ace and he had no doubt. about what to return.-hlslast club. Thus. West made his spade queen by being able to ruff higher than

.tiummy. and the penalty grew to l iioo points.

They saw him stop at Johy Chuck's house.

safe place in which to bring up a family of lively young cubs.

While she waited for Reddys re- turn she made up her mind. "we are going to move, and the sooner the better." she announced as soon as Raddy was near enough to hear her. She didn't. notice the happy grin on Reddy's sharp face.

Reddy paid no attention to her.

"My dear. I have some good news," he barked.

"And I have some bad news." re-

torted Mrs. Reddy. "We have got to move right. away." "He is back!” barked Reddi.

There was "no mistaking the joy in his voice.

"We can't put it off any longer. Today I found?" She stopped to stare at Reddy. "What did you say?" she demanded.

"I said he is back. At least that. is what. I have heard," barked Roddy.

"I'll believe it when I see him.” declared Mrs. Reddy.

"Then you can believe it. right. now." declsi-ed Reddy. He hail turned snd was looking off across the Green Meadows. Farmer Brown's boy was crossing then to- ward the dear Gld Briar-patch. He was small in the distance. but both

Reddy and Mrs. Raddy had watch;

ed him so often through other years that they knew they were not mistaken.

The worried look left Mrs. Red- dy's sharp fsce. For the moment she forgot her troubles as side by side they watched Farmer Brown's boy as he visited the dear Old Briar-patch. They saw him stop at. Johnny Chuck's house. Johnny had sat on his doorstep until Farm- er Brown's boy was almost to him. then shown him a pair of black heels as he ducked down inside the house.

They saw Peter Rabbit kick up his heels and dodge into the dear Old Briar-patch. his white tail bobbing up and down only ii few feet. in front of Farmer Browns

boy.

"I wish Peter would let: us get ris near him as that." grinned Reddy. and Mrs. Reddy grinned back.

"Do you suppose he will over here?" said Mrs. Reddy.

"Of course he will." declared Reddy. "He will want to know how things are up here in the Old Pas- ture."

The worried look returned to Mrs. Roddy! face. 'iI hope so." said she.

"He will. Of course he will." re- peated Reddy confidently.

But. a few minutes later Farmer Brown's boy turned as if to go over to the smiling Pool. Reddy watch- ed for a moment. then barked. I: was a sharp. anxious hark. Fami- er Brown's boy turned in look that way. Eeddy barked again. It was a little sharper. and a little more anxious-sounding than before.

Farmer Brown's boy started straight for the Old Pastursgand on his freckled face was a smile. He understood those two barks per- fectly. "Don't. worry, Reddy. I'm coming to see you." said he, but of course Raddy couldnt hear him. He barked once more. It. was it different bark, a happy bark. It was the Old Pastures welcome back to Farmer Brown's boy.
