BEDTIMI The Hawk to wonder eyes his living owes. The cuiming Fox would rather trust his nose.

~—Old Mother Nature.

Little Miss Meadow Mouse, just starting out in the Great World. was learning about noses and not liking at all what she was learn~ ink. Being a very timid, small person anyway, she was frightened by what she learned. and the more she learned the more frightened she became. She had known that keen eyes of unfriendly folk were constantly watching for her. but she knew that if she kept under cover they wouldn't see her. Being so small it was easy for her to hide from the keenest eyes. But until Johnny Chuck said so she never had even thought noses were to be feared. It came to her now that when, hidden from even the sharp- est eyes, she had felt safe perhaps she hadn't been safe at all. It was a frightening thought.

"Do you mean that those sniff- ling noses can smell me and follow me and find where I am?" she asked in a squeaky voice that to Johnny Chuck seemed to tremble a little.

"Listen!" said Johnny Chuck.

Little Miss Meadow Mouse lis- tened. A Dog was barking. It was an excited. eager barking. Sometimes it would stop for a moment or two then begin again. ‘That is a Dog following his nose

intention being m nos-s the trick to East. who, of course, could ‘not successfully attack the heart kinE‘ West, however, put in the diamond jack, and when declarer went up with the ace and returned a dia- mond. West overtook his 0WD partner's queen to shift. to hearts, West felt sure that declarer would not have refused the spade finesse ii he had held two or more spades. and therefore it was clear that the only hope for the defense was to get two heart tricks. Obviously, the heart shift defeated the contract.

A finesse at. the very first trick declarer! What if East should cap- im-e the spade queen with the king? Declarer could discard one |of his diamonds on the spade ace land in that way make sure that y West could never get in again for the shift to hearts. Two rufis 0i Idiamonds would establish 1h; suit Ieasiiy. and dummy had plenty of trump entries to carry out this

logical line of play.

"Listen!" said Johnny Chuck

alto! some one." said Johnny Chuck. "Whom is he after?" cried the

Mouse. "Can you see whom he is

after?" Being so small. she couldn't see over the grass. "No," replied Johnny Chuck.

"No, I can't see whom he is after but I know who it is."

"How do you know?" squeaked the Mouse. She was excited.

"Quite a while ago Peter Rabbit was over where that Dog is making a1. that noise and that Dog's nose has found it out and is following the scent Peter left, Some noses are wonderful that way." explained Johnny. "Can he see Peter?" asked the Mouse. "Don't ask foolish questions." said Johnny somewhat crossly "I told you that it was some time ago that Peter was over there Probably by now lie is iii the Old Brier-patch where that Dog can't get him. If he isn't it will serve him right ii’ lie is chased." ' "Could Raddy Fox and Jimmy Skunk and some oi those others with sniffing noses follow me like that?" asked the Mouse in a small. squeaky voice. It sounded as i! she were frightened. She was.

Johnny nodded. "01’ course. Why not?" said he.

"And find me WYIGIGVOT I might

‘b. hidden?" squeaked the Mouse

and Johnny nodded again. "Do you mean that those dreadful noses could find me ivhere eyes

couldn't?" asked the Mouse. Again Johnny nodded his head. “Easilyf” said he.

“Then what cliaiice has a poor little Mouse like me got?" cried little Miss Meadow Mouse.

"Hide," sald Johnny Chuck briefly.

“But you just said that those

noses can find me wherever I hide." cried the frightened young Mouse.

"Finding where you have isn't catching you. That Dog will find where Peter Rabbit is but that is all the good it will do him

I-le won't be able to follow Peter under the brambles and briars. You can liidc under a. loaf from

He yawned. lie yawned again. "It is my bedtime. It is past my bedtime. I'm going to bed right now. and you won't see me again until spring. I hope you'll‘ be around then, but I doubt it. Never forget that sharp eyes and sniffing roses are always seeking a Blouse dinner, then perhaps I'll see you again after all."

With this Johnny Chuck yawned again. turned and his black heels disappeared down the long hall of his underground house.
