THE FRIENDLESS ONE
No sadder fate may aiar attend. Than not to have a single friend. -Old Mother Nature.
Over at the Smiling Pool were many singers. Some were in the water. some were on the land. Those in the water were the Frog folk. those called Pecper who really are tiny Tree Frogs called I-iylas. and Croaker the Green Frog. and Old Mr. Toad who is a cousin of the Frog folk. Those on land were ltedwing tiie Black- bird. and Little l-'i-ienii the Song Sparrow. and others of the feath- ered tolk. All day long and far into the night there was a joyous chorus at the Smiling Pool. if you could have asked the little mm

ginger; why they were singing so much. and it they could have re- plied. they would have told you that they were singing for love and joy in living. In the spring, in the lovely month of May, love and joy in living seemed to be in the very air.
Little Frioiid the Song Sparrow lwas singing too.

Now that the men of science have informed us that flights to the moon will become a reality in so years. I have picked up a further bit of data. Namely: rocket travel- ers will be able to land on the moon by means of air locks the moon has no air. They would have to put on special diving suits to breathe in. There would have to be a special air lock. or chamber in the rocket so that when Smith or Jones stepped onto the moon the air inside the rocket would not es- cape. These air locks would be in the order of the ressure locltl used by divers leavin and entering sub- marines under water.
Here's how they take a fish cen- sus: give the finners an electric throats. On the topmost branch of an alder in the little swamp at the head of the Smiling Paul was Redwing the Blackbird sing- ing to Mrs. Redwing. She was sit- ting nn four eggs in a comfort- able nest in the riislies near by. Little Friend the Song Sparrow was singing too, and there is no sweeter song than this.
On the end of an old log which was partly in the water sat Grand- father Frog. He had been rather late in awakening from his winter sleep. He was adding his deep bass voice to the chorus. But it wasn't quite as deep and smooth as it would be when he had a little more practice. Just below Peter, and only a little way out in the water, old Mr. Toad was blowing out his big music bag. and adding to the chorus one of the sweetest notes of all.
Suddenly a black head was

Then is reason to feel that most. players in East's position would now return a heart-pep bans they would hope that West. could run the suit-or they might shift to a spade. The actual East. however. mada neither of these Orrors. when his heart king held the first trick. he made the far better shift in tha deuce of dia- uinntis.

The diamond shift by East was strongly indicated for this rea- son: South could not have any- thing of value in the minor suits. and so was marked with very good spades for his two-notrnmp call. relurnathere was no need to make that return because East had the club suit controlled. it he didn't find his partner with the diamond ten.
