Souths’ bidding is merely re- ported-mot approved However, it cannot be ’ ‘ed that South "picked his spot" almost clair- voyently in this case. bidding a hand that would not warrant ae- tion more than once in ten times, in all probability.

Yet. there was more than a shred o! logic in South's two-club bid. Went, by responding with one notrunrp to one spade, denied real strength, and East was wlll- lng to stop at the one-level, hence prelumably did not have much better than an opening bid. Thus. it was a reasonable deduction that North rnust have a lair hand. .

They were the moat beautilul babies in all the Great World even at birth. You wouldn't have though-t so. You would have said- uell, never mind what you would have said. One o! the wanderlui things about mother love is that 1t sees bea/uty where no one else can. ‘Ilhoae babies were helpless. squirming mitel without little fur coats such as some babies are born with. Their eyes were tightly closed and it would be nearly {our weeks bedore they would open tor the first time. Burt in that den-k little home there was nothing to see. And at- iirst their ears were closed too. All they could do wal squirm.

In one thing they were very ditlerent from all other Green Forest babies. or Green Meadow babies too for that matter. They had what looked like little wines. From eeah little front leg or arm to each little hind leg on the same aide was a web o! akin that later would be eoverod with aott fur. 1t. was these that would en- able the little Squirrels when they were grown to glide like their mother and father. Only" mother love could possibly see any beauty in those tiny, pink, squirming mites. Perhaps it saw then how they would look when just a little older, when even you and I would admit that they were pretty ba- bies.

Among good mothers Mrs. Tim. my is one of the best. She dldrrt leave them one short little second longer than she had to.

First she always made certain that no one was about to see her. She was trying to keep that home a secret. And when she returned, though always in an anxious hurry, she never rorgot to make sure that no one was watching her.

So it was the little ma. Timmy lived day and night in anxious happiness. But that is the way with moat mothers. It is mother love.
