Roddy Pox had watched Bobby Coon catch e. Frog that wafburied in the soft mud where the water was very shallow. It had seemed a simple easy thing to do. Bobby had waded _out and merely felt around in the mud until one of his hands had touched that Frog. The very instant he touched that Frog he had- known what he was touching, and his fingers with their sharp claws had closed on it before it could move.

“That is all there is to it." said Bobby'."'lt is easy when you know how, and I have shown you how."

_"It looks easy when you do it." agreed Roddy.

"Ohuga-ruml" said Grandfather

Frog from rmong the big green lily pads out in the Smiling Pool, just as if he had overheard them. 0f course he couldn't have.

"As long as yofrwere here first I'll leave the Frogs to you." said Raddy and went out on the Green Meadows to look for Mice. But as he hunted he could still hear the voice o! Grandfather Frog over in the Smiling Pool, and it reminded him of the clever way in which Bobby Coon had caught that young Frog.

, "If he can do it I should be able to. If I am not as smart as Bobby Coon it is time I should find it out.‘ thought he, and resolved that he would try Bobby's way f catching a I'm: in the mud, b t he would wait until he was sure

The Frag, icr he was sure that was what he felt. was smooth and slippery. He slid out from under Freddy's paiws.

Raddy pawed about in the mud frantically, but all he succeeded in doing was to stir up the mud until it douded all that end of the Emiling Pool. In disgust Reddy waded ashore. He sat down to think it over. Catching a Frog in the murl wasn't as easy as he had thought it would be. I

"1 found that Frog sll right." thought he. "The trouble ivas he slipped right out frcm under my feet. 1 couldn't held hlim down I-low did Bobby Coon hold on to the one he caught?" Then Raddy remembered something he hadn't thought of before. "It is his feet." thought he. "His front feet and mine are different. l-le has long toes and can take hold of things I can't. He can take hold of a frog end keep hold. I can't I can catch a. Frog on land by pressing him down, but that can't he done in soft mud. Bobby Ccon is smart, but it isn't smartncss alme that catches Frogs In mud. He has something to do it with that I haven't. That's all there is to that." I

Roddy was right. Bobby's front foot are more like hands than feet Ho uses thorn as both hands and feetflie takes hold oi things with] them and he walks with thorn! \Vl'ien he is feeling about in the‘ mud, or climbing or reaching for i-hlngs, they are hands. when he, i: walking c-i‘ running they are‘ feet

That was the last time Roddy ever tried to catch a Rog in the - mud. He sti‘l hunts Frogs now and then, but on land where he can pounce on them lust as he does on Mics and others. It took only that one lesson to teach him how foolish it is to try to do things it never‘ was intended for one to do. \

"Bobby Coon can have his Frogs; I'll take Mice." muttered Raddy a bit wryly as he headed out over the Green Meadows. y

"Ohuga - rum! chug; - rum!‘ Ohuga-rirrni" chanted Grandfather‘ mo; over in the smuing Pool. I

Despite the diamond bid on his left, west opened his fourth-high- est card in that suit. After due thought, declarer let'this ride to his own ten. He realized, of course that he was running the risk of never again reaching the dummy but- there was a 3 to 1 chance that either the heart klnS or the club gcplay in West's hand, so that the jack of the corresponding suit would be an entry to dummy!

When the diamond ten held, declares‘ led a; low club toward the jack, which held when East cor- rectly ducked. The ace and kin! or diamonds were cashed, declarer, discarding a spade and a heart and then Wtst was throrm on lead vrith the fourth diamond. declares- riiscarding another spade. _

West had a difficult exit pro- blem. A spade lead was out of the question, and West did not like to lead from his A-l0-8 of clubs, since he felt that by holding an to those cards he mightbe able to take two club tricks. 5o I16 shill-Ed t0 the low cards he might be able to take two club tricks So he shifted to the low heart.- Dummyb Jack was put up, and East had to cover or permit the play to stay in dummy, where t-here were two good diamonds.

Again West found himself on lesdl Hoping that South had only K-Q of .clubs hlank at this point, West laid d-own the ace, but by so doing he established declarers king and queen.

A spade lead by West, from the king, would. have been equally ac- ceptable to the declarcr.
