”Wihat?" asked Peter.

"I go inside my house and shut. the door and I shut it tight rc- plied Stalkeye.

"What good does that do?' Peter wanted to know at once.

”Well, you see I keep pretty damp inside my house. so when the weather begins to get dry I shut the door tight and keep what dampness there is shut in. That way it lasts a long time. But I have to stay right when I am. I can't keep opening the door. I've

Generally speaking, a takeout double shows more strength than a simple overcall, but a paradox is involved here, because the plain not is that such doubles are oiten used by experts when they would not take the risk or ovel-calling: let's consider a hanr irom the re- cent Open Pairs contest 01 the Eastern Tournmenh

Yesterday's Crypioquote: THE GOD i KNOW OF. I SHALL! NE'ER KNOW, THOUGH HE DWELLS EXCEEDING NIGH-' warsou. '

"W muon by west over one spade was something of a giunble. but 3" match-point duplicate most or the outstanding players take such risks in order to "compel-e-" W95” 09"” -not. however, bring himaeii to bid his diamond suit at the we-level. and therefore chose to double a spade. If his partner could respiillil in hearts, that would probably be a safer suit; whereas it East had to bid clubs. West then would be ioreed to risk a diamond bid. Act- ually, since East had a hand that was only a little short oi open- ing bld,requirements, he made '.hP shrewd response or a cue hid in the ovpponeTits' suit-an announce- merit oi a hand which was as good as it could be in the light. of East's previous pass.

South tried to shut out the oi)- ponenta by rebidding spades. and of course his bid was also intend- ed as a game eliort in case North had a little support. North did not feel that he could accept this invi- tatlon, and East ther. bid his dia- mond suit. West was well enough pleased with the iour-diamond contract, and passed.

3y playing the hand properly- speciiically leading up to dual- my's hearts instead of IIYIIIK d0'Nll an honor from that hand and luv- lng it "killed" by South's ace-East actually made live-odd. but he earned a very ilood match-point score -without reaching game. South could have made iour spades, as

it he-ppeneii. but this would have

got to stay right there and hope the dry weather will not. last too long. I don't like being shut up, but I sometimes have to be in dly weather.” declared stalkeye.

"Well. you don't have to worry about dry weather now, and there is nobody here in the Old Brier- patch to step on you, so you haven't anything at all to worry about. You couldn't be in a saier better place than right here in the dear old Brier-patch." declared Peter.

Mrs. Peter had been listening and saying nothing. Now she sniffed. tPetes- doesn't believe that." said aha.

"I do. too. 01 course. I believe it. Why do you lay Iuch a thing as that?" cried Peter.

"Because you are always so eager to leave it. If it is such a. safe won- der.iul place why don't. you stey here instead or running on to tile Green Forest. the old Pasture or the anillng Pool?" retorted Mrs. Peter.

"It is only once in a while," said Peter lamely. p

You should have heard little Mrs. Peter mm then. You really lhould. "Once in a while!" she exclaimed aoorniully. "It is every night if he can get away."

Hastily Peter changed the sub- ject. "Blacky the Crow was over here early this morning. He said he saw some one over here." said Peter.

"01 course he saw some one over here. He saw me," spoke up Mrs. Peter.

"Yes. my clear. he saw you. but he saw some one else de- clared Peter.

"Who?" demanded Mrs. Peter. "Who else did he see over here?"

"Shorttail the Shrew," replied Peter.

"Wha-wha-what? Wh-wh-wh- where? Di-d-di-did you say short- tsil the shrew?" asked a email voice that sounded very, very scar- ed. Peter and Mrs. Peter looked down at stalks-ye. I1 ever there was a worried little snail they were looking at one. Yes. sir, they were looking at one. There wasn't the least doubt about that.

"what's the matter?" asked Pe- ter. .

"Has something irightened you?” asked Mrs. Peter.
