WHERE WAS MRS. TOAD

Alas. that it should be that joy

is seldom free from some slloy. -Old Mr. Toad.

Old Mr. Toad was happy. There was no doubt about that. Folks don't sing when they are not happy and Old Mr. Toad was singing. in fact he sang most of the time. and there wasn't a sweeter voice in the Smiling Pool. But he -wasn't fuilv happy. His joy wasn't complete. It was pure joy. You see he was anxious. Not too anxious, but a little anxious, just enough to keep him from being completely happy. He hadn't yet found Mrs. Toad. He hadn't heard of her. it seemed that no one had seen her.

up went ronipletely around the Smiling Pool. it took him two or three clays to do this. He is a slow swimmer anyway. and he stopped so often and for so long at s time to sing that it took him a long time to go even a little way. Then. too. he had to be careful and watchful. Even such a homely fei- low as old Mr. Toad is not -without hungry cncmles.

So though he sang joyously be- cause of being back in the Smiling Pool where he had been born, and where he had first learned to sing,

worried about Mrs. Toad, and it crept into his singing. It made the sweet notes -coming from the big music bag in his throat a little

THE. LAST TRUMP

It is a strange habit of many players to hold on to their last trump whether or not it can give them protection. The fact: is. of course, that the refusal 'fo cash that last trump at the proper time may be I very costly gestural Observe this not-unusual case:

5-23 South dealer. East-West vulnerable.

The bidding:

It is quite evident that south "let himself go" in this bidding! After all, North's two-club response to one spade did not promise "the world's fair"! However, with what North actually put down. South decided to establish his diamond suit. immediately. He cashed the sec and king and ruffed I third round with the spade nine. East over-ruffed-a questionable action! --and laid down the heart king. South ruffed. and -he then cashed just enough trumps to draw East's cards in the suit.

view of the non-break of diamonds. west. who still had his original club holding. was not so foolish its to cover the ten. and when south immediately took another finesse in the suit. its success did him little good. He could discard one dia- mond on the club ace. hut this

sweeter. You see. those were love

notes. He wasn't singing just. for his own pleasure or the pleasure oi others who might hear him. he really was singing for -Mrs. Toad. and the very fact that he didn't know if she heard him made him try to put into his singing all the love he held for her.

Peter Rabbit found him close to shore. Peter watched him blow out his music bag until it looked like a big white bubble under his chin. "I wish I could do that." said Peter.

Old Mr. Toad suddenly let all the air out of his music bsg. He nearly choked. "What did you say?" he gasped.

Peter grinned a little foolisliiy. "I mean it must be nice to sing as you do and make other people happy, 1 would love to do that," said he.

Old Mr. Toad rolled his lovely golden eyes up to Peter. "Ham you seen Mrs. Toad?" he asked.

"And I would love to have such beautiful eyes as your's." said Pe- ter.

"Have you seen Mrs. Toad?" re- peated old Mr: Toad.

"You're lucky," said Peter.

"Am I?" said Old Mr. Toad with- out interest.

"Yes. sir, you certainly are." re- plied Peter.

"Have you seen Mrs. Toad?” asked Old Mr. Toad. In his beauti- ful eyes was an anxious look. Pe- ter didn't notice it.

"1 would think niyseli lucky if I had only a beautiful voice, but you hue that and beautiful eyes too." said he.

"Yet some folks call me ugly. and most folks say I am homely," rc- plied Old Mr. Toad dryly. Then he added. "You haven't answered my question."

"What question was that?" asked Peter. He was so intent looking at the golden eyes of Old Mr. Toad that he really hadnlt noticed the tiuestion. People often get deal that way when they are much ill- terested in something else.

"I asked you if you have seen Mrs. Toad. Have you?" replied old Mr. Toad. 1-is sounded a little put out. I don't. wonder. Do you?

"Oh!" replied Peter. "No. I haven't seen Mrs. Toad. Why should you think I might have seen her?"

"You run about so much I thought you might have seen her somewhere," replied Old Mr. Toad

"Didn't she spend the winter with you in Farrner Brown's gar- den?" asked Peter.

"No." replied Old Mr. Toad. "I don't know where she spent the winter. I dont even know if she spent it anywhere. I haven't semi her since we parted here at the smiling Pool last summer. 1 went. one way and she went another. she always meets me here in the spring. but I haven't: seen her this spring.” He swelled out his music bag and began to sing. it was his way of calling her.
