Of course. all summer long than was nothing to tear from dreadful guns. and there was no danger from this cause anywhere they might be. So"1'hunde1-er and Mrs. Grouse, late in the summer. loft Farmer Brown's land to vialt certain other places where there was extra good eating. Day after day they had feasted, sometimes in one place and aometimea in an- other. They had quite forgotten that in this beautilul part of the year there was also the dreadful hunting season.
They had wandered a little fur- ther than usual from the familiar home surroundings of the Green Forest. This particular morning had dawned Ia peaceful and love- ly as had other mornings. Thun- derer was feasting on beechnuts. They had ripened and begun falling extra early. Jack Frost had opened some of the burrs and rough Brother North Wind had shaken the little three-sided nuts out of there. They had fallen to the ground and rolled under the yellow leaves which had already fallen. Hunting for them was fun. Eating them when found wan still more fun. They were aweet and delicious. The two Grouse were so busy scratching among the leaves for the hidden little nuts that they paid no attention to anything else. Their one thought was to fill their crops with these best. of all nuts.
Then it happened. There was the loud hang of a terrible gun not far away. It was a rude awa- kening for those two folks happily feasting in the midst of the beautiful surrounidinge of the Green Forest. Yes, air, it was I rude awakening.
"It has begun." cried Mrs. Grouse in startled dismay. "The terrible time for all Grouse that comes at the loveliest time at every year has begun. I had for- gotten that it was time."
"so had 1," said 'I'hunde1'er.'”We

' Mrs. Grouse nodded. "It is the only place where we can feel safe.” said she. "We must get back there .15 soon as we can."
"And right now the sooner we get away from this place the bet- ter. That hunter will be here the first thing we know." cried Thun- deter.
"Look!" whispered Mrs. Grouse.

.0-t-co-Q-eocecosew-as-at DOUBLING FOR A LEAD
It is always risky to make speculative doubles against altru- sive opponents, because a success- ful redouble may be the enemy'a response. However, there are times when such risks should be taken. and the following deal is typical in that respect.

East, though he must. have wan- led a heart lead against the final contract, could not steel him- self to double and call for that lead. The result was that West opened his fourth-highest dia- mond and declarer "sailed home." He won the first trick with the diamond six and promptly finess- ed the diamond jack through West The latter did not cover. but now South had five diamond tricks at his command. and by augment- ingl these with two clubs. one heart and one spade, he fulfilled the contract.
A player in East's position is
not to be envied. since he is in

On a heart lead -e and we repeat that the double demands the lead of the suit bid by Ihe about-to-be dummy -- East. is assured of at least two heart tricks and the spade ace: and if his partner can get in again and has in second heart. defeat. of the contract is almost inevitable.
A further argument in favor o! the double is that it may mislead declarer in respect to strength in the suits other than hearts. For example, in this case, if East had dmrbled three notrunip, South might very well have flncssed against East for the diamond
queen.
