THE GUARDIAN,

MR- QUACK rs iixcrriin

Tlwush satisfied with what you've found.

It "in may Ply to look around.

—Mr. Quack

Mr. Quack the Mallard Duck 1s handsome and he knows it. Like most handsome folks he often shows thatrhe knows it, especially When he thinks others are looking at him and admiring him. He likes to be admired. Who doesn't? He and Mrs. Quack and their flock u! young Ducks they were Sililposed to lead to the Sunny South for the winter still lingered on the Big River. There was still good eating in the big wild rice bed along one shore. Though some nights Jack Frost made a little ice along the shore it didn't interfere with their feeding ancLin the morning it soon melted. In day. time they kept out on the middle of the Big River where they were safe from the dreadful guns they knew were hidden in the rice. or sometimes visited the Smiling Pool. They had found out. that there they were safe from dreadful guns. for Farmer Brown would not allow hunting there. When the Black Shadows stole out from the Purple Hills each evening it was safe to go into the rice.

Until that date, sailings will continue from each terminal i at 8:00 llld 11:00 a. rn., 1:00 and 3:00 p. m.

Traffic figures will be supplied as soon as available.

Our Company In Interested In hearing from the public, as to the desirability of having this service continued during the

ive one riotrump. When North re- bid his diamonds. however. South correctly repeated the notrump call, thus giving a very fair de- scrlption of his holding. -

West opened the spade four. East, of course, put up the king. and South. after long thought, took the trick. South then led e diamond and finesseci the jack. East won and led back the spade ten. South covered. but this only led to greater defeat. because after West. had won the trick, he put East in with the spade nine, and now East was forced to shift to hearts, This lead through declarefs king gave the defense a few more tricks. and the result was a. 500-point penalty.

South should have taken a more realistic view of the diamond’ sit- uation! Granting that the finesse offered a slight advantage mathe- matically, it ivas nevertheless bad play to take that finesse! The right line was lo cash the diamond ace

and king. This would guard against East‘s getting in if he had the doubleion queen. and It would be ii losing play only if West had the diamond queen and his partner had the heart ace, and if West upon faking the diamond queen. shifted Io a heart.

In other words. the combination of circumstances that would defeat the contract if declarer played out the ace and king of diamonds. was far more remote than the position of cards that actually existed.

on." Mrs. Quack would say.

"We really ought." Mr Quack would agree, noddiﬂl his hand- some green head Then he would add. "perhaps tomorrow."

Now as every one kuoivs. tumor. row never comes; always it l5 to. day. So the Quacks still lingered and wished they might stay all winter. They dreaded the long, long journey to the Sunny South with dreadful guns wailing for them all along the way not to men- tion other dangers.

“If only we could be sure of open water and enough to eat we would stay. I'm sure we wouldn't mind the cold. I hear that Mr. and Mrs. Black Duck stayed last winter and are planning to stay this coming winter." said Mrs. Quack.

"You don't say! Who told you that?" qiiacked Mr. Quack.

"A little bird told me." replied .\lrs. Quack. The little bird was Sara Rail whom she had met aver in the rice. 4

"if they can stay we can." de- clared. Mr. Quack. He was very de- cided about it.

"It would seem so. but we don't know how they do It." sighed Mrs. Quack.

"We'll find out." declared Mr. Quack. “I'll do some looking around. That's what I'll do." He was beginning to get excited.

Mrs. Quack nodded "Nothing is lost by looking around. Often it pays." said she.

"'I'hey lived around here all summer so they probably- know of some safe place where there is plenty to eat that we don't know of." said lvlr. Quack.

“If so we should he aisle to find ii.“ said Mrs. Quark.

"I ivill." declined Mr. Quack "I'll look around until I do."

“I've noticed that they aren't as neighborly as they used to be They don't stay around here as much as they did when we first knew them. Every morning at day- light they fly up the Big River and are gone all day. Have you noticed that?" said Mrs. Quack.

"No." replied Mr. Quack “If that's the case I'll go up the Big River myself tomorrow morning. I'll follow them and find out where they go. They eat the same kind of food we do and if there is a place where they can get it all winter we can get it there too."

The next morning at break of day as the Black Shadows began to hurry back to the Purple Hills Mr. Quack saw Mr. and Mrs. Black Duck leave the rice and fly up the Big River. He took to his own wings and followed. Mrs. Quack remained with the flock, leading them out to the middle of the river before the coming of hunters. Mr. Quack was zone a long time so long that she began to fear something had happened to him. When at last he did return he was an excited Duck. Yes sir, he was a-n excited Duck. He was so excited that he could hardly quack.

"I've found it. my dear! I've found itI" he quacked when at last he found his voice.
