Until the end no race is won. —Reddy Fox.

that is because in time of danger they are quite helpless and they know it. All they can do is rim and they are by no means the best of runners. Of course they know this. Probably they feel that many together are safer than when they are scattered and running alone. So when they are frightened they run more or less crowded together in a certain pasture, far from} the old Pasture where Roddy For] lives a flock of Sheep lived. Raddy; knew all about those sheep. l-lel ,knew how easily frightened they were. He knew now a barking Dog] would start them running. More: than once he had made us of that: knowledge to get rid of Dogs chas-l in; him. So he had a friendly feel- ing for the Sheep and had taken care never to frighten them him- self.

frighten friends, espeelally useful, friends, and these were useful friends. This fact. and how they could be useful, he had explainedr to Roddy Junior. Now the young, Fox was making use oi’ this‘ knowledge, but ho was a scaredl Fox. Yes, sir, he was as scared a‘

A Hound, a kind of Dog with a wonderful nose for following the scent left by a Fax, had found Reddy Juniors trail. The young Fox had been unable to fcol that Dog and the latter had been catch- in: up with him. When the pasture with the Sheep was reached the young Pox was so tired ho knew he could not run much farther and that Dog was only a little way be- hind. It-jyras then that he remem- bered about the sheep and how, they could be made use of. He ran in arriiong them just. as the Dog}

burst out of tho bushes, frighten ing the sheep. Now they were racing for the other end of the. pasture and running witih themi was Reddy Junior. It was race for life. Yes. sir, itl was a for life. The frightened‘ Sheep thought it was for theirl lives. They were terribly fright-I ened, too frightened to notice. that. the Dog was no longer barkingi arid that he was not ehasing them, The young Fox didn't merely ihinkl that this was a race for his life;; he know it ivas. You see he was having all he could do to dorize‘ those sharp little hoofs of the frightened Sheep, to keep from being trampled to death. _ As fast as he could he worked his way through tihe flock to the; head of it. Then he was nut ini front, running as hard as he could to keep zihcrirl,"tfhose trampling; honfs almost at. tihe tip of his tail; Had he not been so fired he would‘ have had no trouble at all in run- ning away from iihose Sheep. As ,it was. he was so tired that only fear of being trampled on kcrit him going. He must. keep alieriti until the bars at. tihe end of the pasture were reziohed. Once he passed under those he would be safe. Would ha ever reach them? He had forgotten the Dog. fill-re the Bhggp, he was inn frightened to riotiee that. tihe Dore V18! rm longer barking. His fear now was: of those trampling hoofa. not of the Dog. Meanwhile the Der: was} vainly trying to find the seent. that» had ended so unexperterllv. Tt had been strong and easy in fol. low, but. now he couldn't. find any Why? What had become. of that Fox‘! He sniffed about this tray and that with his time to the ground. He hunted in a small circle. Then he made a blazer twice he thought. he got a hint. of circle and a hisrger one. Once nr twice he ihoupiht he not a hihf of that scent, but it wasn't enough for him to be sure. He. paid no attention at all to those runuirii: Sheep. He wasn't hunfiniz sheep He had no desire to have them.

I 5*; Contract Bridge? By Josephine Cnlberleou a Sesmxehwssmccexxvccass LOW-LEVEL nomsmzs

There are two distinctly dif-

ferent schools of thought on the subject of penalty doubles. Ono school holds that a double of a very low contract invites the oo- operaticn of partner as to whe- ther or not the double should ba lc-ft in; while the other school insists that. the low-level double, like others. should he ari inde- pendent. action, based on great trump strength and therefore not requiring the “approval" of partner.

Thus, if one type of player rinzibles (lei us say» the one-spade rivcrvail of his partner's opening bid, the doubler is apt t0 hold a zood spade suit-so-mething like five tn the K-Q-IO, K..J..l0. Qn-LIO, or perhaps even Mtter. Unfortun. ritely, however, ihanqpportunlties fnr this "snlld“ typef-of double oc- cur rarely. u-hercas the opportun- ities for "cooperative doubles" are far more frequent. Lets look at an actual case;

when this deal cum! up in a rubimr game, East opened the bid- fling with one diamond and South ovorcnlled with one heart, Thgfg is little point in discussing the validity oi’ South's overcall — the sinple fact. is that South made the hid, and that the same sort of rash nvereall is made in countless games.

Our present concern la with West's action. If West hglongg to the school that considers a penalty double final and invialato, he would probably ‘not double with his holding. He would Mar a very 1on1: heart suit in tho South hand, and perhaps a heart void or
