Striped Chipmunk and Mrs. Chipmunk, they oi the pretty striped coats and the bright eyes. were two frightened and worried little folks. There was no doubt about that. Peter Rabbit was sorry for them. Striped Chipmunk had been so bursting with the joy oi spring that he had sat on the old stonewall telling all who would listen how happy he was. Now he was holding his tongue. And he was keeping out of sight down under the old wall. He was neither to be seen nor heard. And it was all because Mr. Blucksnake had been seen in the neighborhood. Peter Rabbit, vrho had been there at the time. told Mrs. Peter all about it.

Blacksnake eats baby birdl and other babies when he can find them." said Peter as if this was news.

Mrs. Peter gave Peter an odd look "Do you think I didn't know it?" she asked. “You ought to have to watch over helpless babies ior a while. You might learn some- thing." She had once boldly 45nd

conditions, West was not "happy" about leaving in the double of one heart. but he did so because there was no other action that suited hlrm even that well. He could not assume that East's hand was so strong — East had made a. "re-opening" double. and might have been greatly lniluenc- ed. by North's confession of weak- ness. West ielt (logically) that ii bid one notrumrp, he would not give East enough encouragement, whereas a jump to two notrump would be a decided overstatement oi West's values and quite pos- slbly lead to a penalty. ‘rhus. the

was actually a com-promise meas- ure on West's part. Incidentally, it was a measure that turned out extremely well, although it is true that South could have played the hand better. .

West opened the club deuce. East shrewdly played the jack, and the king won. South now led a low spade. East won and return- ed the heart iour. West captured the queen and returned the heart ten.

South, in with the heart king. ruﬂed a spade. then tried and lost the diamond finesse. West led his spade queen; East overtook and continued the suit. letting West discard his diamond eight. When South finally ruﬂed in on leads from East. West over-ruffed and drew South's trump. so the one-heart contract eves defeated 700 points!

"What makes you say such things?" cried Peter.

"I've heard things." said Mrs. Peter darkly.

"What have you heard?" de- mended Peter.

“Mr. Blacksmake isn't the only one who eats baby birds when he can get them." declared Mrs. Peter.

"I know." replied Peter. “Blacky the Crow and Sammy Jay do, and I have heard that some others do."

"That ls true and one oi them is Striped Chipmunk," said Mrs. Peter.

"I don't believe iti" cried Peter.

"He is a Squirrel, isn't he?" de- manded Mrs._Peter. ~ Peter nodded "Of course he ls. What of it?" said he.

"You know very well that oth- ers oi his family like a bit of meat now and then. Chatter-er the Red Squirrel is one. You know be robs nests of eggs and baby birds when ho can. Ii Chatterer, why not his cousin. Striped Chipmunk" re- torted Mrs. Peter.

It was the very next day when Peter was again visiting in the bushes besides the old stonewall that a sudden screaming oi the feathered folk caused him to look up ln the nearest tree. He was just in time to see Scrapper the King- bird knock Striped Chipmunk ofi a limb on which was a nest in which he knew there were bird babies. Striped Chipmunk raced

his angry. feathered neighbors screaming at his heels. Right then and there Peter stopped being sorry ior Striped Chipmunk be- cause of his iear oi Mr. Black- snake.
