could swim. Having seen him do it he had to believe it, but it still was hard work.

"I didn't know Johnny Ohugk can swim," said Peter to Jerry Muskrat ﬂoating in the water just; below him. Peter was sitting on the bank where it was highest.

Jerry looked up and grinned. "n 1r surprising what a 1hr. oi’ things you don't know, Peter," he

has a. squeaky voice. "Every time Wu oome over here there seems to be something you don't know." Peter grinned right back. “Every. body knows something, but nobody knows everything," said he.

Alter that, he "leda low diamond to his ace and returned the dia- mond nine toward dummy, nodding his head in satisiaction when West threw of! a heart. The diamond king was put up, and now came the crucial play! Dummy’s last diamond was led, andiouth dis- carded a heart, giving the trick to East!

East made his correct return, the club ten. South carefully retrain- ed from covering, but of course won with dummy! ace. He then entered his own hand with a trump and laid down every trump. until he himsel! was reduced to the six o! hearts and the jack o! club, while dummy kept the ace- iour o! hearts. ,

"Aren't you hot? You look so," squeaked Jerry.

"Oi course I'm hot. Did you ever know such hot weather? Every-

body's hot these days," replied Peter.

“1'm not,’ retorted Jerry promptly.

"Chuga-rum! O! course he isn't hot. No one with sense enough to live in the water ever is hot. The water may get a little warm, but never hot. And it it is warm on top it is cool down below," crooked Grand-father Frog from the big green lily pad on which he was sitting.

Once more he settled himseii comfortably on his biz green lily pad. His ooat was as green as the lily pad. His waistcoat was white and yellow. "Chuga- rum," said he once more.

out listening. "Some Rabbits can," quacked an unexpected voice, and Mrs.

Quack the Mallard Duok swam out from among the rushes at the head o! the Smiling Pool. "Down where I spend the winter Peter's cousin, Marshy the Marsh Rabbit, is almost as much at home in the water as you are, Jerry Muskrat," she added.

"Didn't I say that everybody can swim? Peter just doesn't dare try. That's all," squeaked Jerry.
