In some deals there is no such thing as expert technique--play erso! ordinary rank and only rea- sonable experience can do as well as the greatest “ . lortunateg iy, however. in the larger propon- tlon oi’ deals either sound techni- que or shrewd “psycholosv." or both, are indispensable! Take the iollowing hand. for example. Al- most every "average" declarer would fall (or East's sly deiense; whereas no line player wolild so caught in the same trap!

living in the early part of the win- ter. It takeirniore than a snug house to keep one warm and com- Iortable in winter. It takes a lull stomach. and there had been many days when 5pooky's stomach was more nearly mm! than iull. so sometimes he had shivered despite his thick coat or leathers. other tlmea he had plenty. At such times Brother North Wind colild blow his hardest. roar and shriek over the land, breaking limbs from trees, driving the icy grains o1 snow in stinging. blinding clouds. and spooky in his hollow in the old apple tree didn't mind at all. His lite in winter is one oi ups and downs. Sometimes he lives high and other times he starves. But it is like that with most oi the 1-ui-red and leatliered loll: who must hunt ior their lood in cold and stormy weather.

Th e had been a bad period when a had no luck in his hunt- ing and was hungry all the time. It seemed as it all the Mice must have been caught. or had gone in- to hiding. In winter he lives most- ly on Mice: It got so that he some- times hunted in the daytime. al- though he doesn’t like to be out in the light of day. But there are feathered Iolk about then who are always safely hidden after dark, so Spooky sometimes went hunt- ing in daytime. especially on dull, dark days. Then quits by accident he discovered that a pane ol glass, a,small pane, was missing mm a small window high up in the peak at Farmer Brown's big barn. To him it was just another hole. But holes are always interest- ing to Spooky, so he stopped to look inside. Almost at once he heard a squeaky voice. It came from somewhere inside. only a Mouse could squca” like that. He heard another and then a third. Like all owls. spooky has wonder- ful cars. it you and I could hear all the small sounds that Spooky‘: ears, and the cars at other Owls pick up. I tear this would be too noisy a world for us to live in corn- iortably. ’I\he'n Spooky heard a sharp squeal.

“Rats!" exclaimed Spooky under his breath. "I! only I could catch a young Rat!" He went inside.

It was early evening and not too dark in there to his wonderlul night-seeing eyes. is heard another squeal and his ears told him just where it came irom. It came from down below and oil to one side. He new dawn and his wings made no sound. not the faintest “ , of a sound. An Owl's wings are like that. That is why they are such successful hunters in the night. When ‘he got down near the ﬂoor, he saw two Rats greedily eating spilled grain. A moment later he -was ﬂying back up to the broken window and a young Rat was with him. For the {list time in several nights Spooky had a lull crop.

Every night after that Spooky visited the big barn. This was the most wonderful hunting ground he

d“""“"' 1" “'5 1°“ ’p“d° h we \ever had known. In there it was

warm and dry and still at all times. No longer must he stay at home and go hungry in bad weath- er. There was no bad weather inside that wonderlul place. spooky be- gan living higvh. Spooky didn't even go back to the hollow tree any more. He lound a dark place high in the barn among the raiters and slept there through the days.
