"Why don't. you go int" llld Whil- key Jack

Whiskey Jack flew down on the doorstep and looked in.

"You don't dare! You don't dare!" screamed Sulflllly J81. hopping back and forth in great excitement.

m; cousin paid no attention to lﬂm, just sut on the threshold peering inside with bright inquisi- tive eyes. He wasn't at all ex- cited. l-ie walked aloIlB B" u" threshold. I .

"You don't dare! You don't dare go insidel" screamed Sammy Jay- comlng a little nearer but only a little. Then he stopped scream~ lng. He stopped jumping about. Whiskey Jack had Mk9" m0 d!" lie had EOne insidP.

Sammy hopped g bit nearer and tried to peep inside, but he wasn't near enough to 58o much. It seemed as if Vilhiskcy Jack never would ccnte out. When he did he had a piece of bread which he io- iused to share. "Go in and get a piece for yourself." he sold.

but just thinking of that meat made hi; mouth water.

The next‘ day found both Sammy and Whiskey Juck where they could Wvatch what went on around the little house among the sugar maples where maple syrup "was helm: mzide. Sammy Jay played safe by slayirg up in the trees when Fnrlnei‘ Brown nntl Farmer Brown's boy tvcrc outside but Whiskey Jan-k ilcw clown near them just as it hejclt himseli to be one 0i’ them. Fnuncr Browns boy brought out scrre bread crusts that had been dipped in bacon lat and Whiskey Jack took them from his hand. He loved that bacon lat.

Sammy Jay flew about high in the trees, watching his cousin, and lscrenmlng “Thief! Thieil Thleii“ It didn't mean a thins-excepting that Sammy was filled with envy.‘

A lot of people are like Sammy l

Jay.

When Farmer Brown and Flrmg er Brown's boy disappeared among the trees to get the sap in the‘ pails hung on the maples Sammy joined his cousin down near ihc little augm- house. The door had; been leit a little way open. Per-, haps Farmer Brown's boy was‘ careless, or perhaps he thouuhtl that a! there was no one around it didn't matter. Sammy Jay flew‘

Two conditions were necessary for the success of the slam con- tract in today's deal, and both of these conditions were present, but the declarer did not plan his play

‘Ilhough neither South nor North overbld to any treat extent, both a1 them "purhed their hands" the mereat shade, and consequently the slam contract, though not actually

lbad, was “shalty."

West opened the spade jack. The ace was played 1mm dummy, and declarer immediately cashed the ace

5 and queen o! hearts. Alter that

action, his chances for the qu- tract dwindled to zero. He did not actually give up-he cashed all the rest of his trumps and the ace and king o! diamonds, obviously hoping that the enemy would die- card their clubs, but this unlikely event did not. transpire. and South therefore ended up by conceding a diamond and a club.

1t South had looked isr enough ahead he would have realizui that the one good chance tor the con- tract was through a strip and throw-in play. True, he would have to tind a 2-2 break o! trimps-and would then have to get a favorable play in the t-luh suit, but there was a very tsir chance that both o! these breaks would develop, and [n any case there was nothing t4 lose by playing tor them. Thus, South should have roiled s spade immediately alter taking the ace. Next he should cash the heart ace and heart kins, then ruit another

gpade. Now he should go to the

dltmond king, ruit dumrnya last spade, than cash the diamond ace and ilnally exit with a diamond. Whichever deiender won this die- mond trick would have in start the clubs (or permit a ruli and dis- card); and simply by playing {or "split" club honors. declarer could easily avoid the loss o! a trick in that suit.
