The tirst simple point concerns the bidding. specifically North's jump spade raise on the second round. Many players. mistaught to take a very conservative view about trump support, would equivocate with a raise to only three spades -and by so doing would give their partners an insoluble in . whether to pass or press to game. North's tour-spade bid was correct in the light of South's spade re-

bid.

'1'he fact that south did not make iour spades was no reflection on North's bidding. It was South's weak play that was responsible- and which forms our second point.

West's lead was a low heart; East put up the ace and returned a heart. South won with- the king and promptly rufied his remain- ing heart-but from that time on he had no real chance. for the con- tract. He ended up by conceding the heart trick, onogg agump an two diamonds. -'--i

"Have we got to spend another night up in a tree?" asked one.

"It will be safer to.” said Mrs. Grouse.

"I don't see why we cant sleep down under the snow," said the young Grouse. "We've done it be- gore. I like it best down there."

” "It's all rightgnow." said Mrs. Grouse. "but it may not be all right in the morning."

"I don't see what difference the morning will make," said the young grouse.

"It may not make any difference. and then again it may. It all de- pends on the weather,” replied Mrs. Grouse.

"What diiierence does the weath- er make?" asked another.

"It can make all'the difference in the world." replied Mrs. Grouse. "It might rain in the night."

"Rain doesn't hurt anybody. If it should rain that is all the more reason we should be down in the snow. The snow is so deep we would be perfectly dry down there." said the same young grouse.
