That is, Roddy didn't lmow he had seen Jumper. He had supposed that what he saw was a little hemp or snow that might have fallen from one of the coder branches overhead. This was because the snow wu no whiter than was Jumper, 1nd squatting there with his feet drawn close under him. his head drawn in and his long ears laid fiat back along his neck and shoulders, he had looked as shapeless as s little heap ct snow, not in the least like an animal.

Jumper had sat perfectly still. Had he moved s0 much as a whis- ker. rolled an eye or twitched an

eyelid Roddy would have instantly known him for what he was. l had taken courage, a. lot of it, to stare straight into Reddys hungry yellow eyes and not. even blink his own. Now the danger was over and forgotten. Anyway Jilmpcr had put it out of his thoughts. Ex- cept to remember important les- sons, Jumper thinks only of the present and what may be ahead. Raddy was hardly out 0t sight when Jumper was once more doz- ing. Like Peter- Rabbit and others of the smaller folk. he is a light sleeper, dozing rather than Sleep- ing soundly. his cars on guard while his eyes are closed. If some faint sound wakes him he is in- stantly widc awake, as wide awvake as if he hadn't been asleep at all. He doesn't need to rub the sleep- iness out of his eyes as some folk

ca. O

The snapping oi’ a small twig caused Jumpers eyes to fly wide open. He didn't move. Those long ears of his didn't fly u-p to catch any new sound as you might ev- pect thcy would have. Moving ears might catch the eyes of a hungry enemy who otherwise would not see him. Long ago Jump. er had learned that just such seem- ingly trifling things as that may mean the difference between life and death. To the Green Forest and Green Meadow folk nothing is trifling. The smallest thing of- ten ls as important as the biggest. Boys and girls could learn much

about the importance of little things from Jumper and his friends.

Some one was slowly coming

his way and not. trying to be quiet about moving amen; the trees.

knowing that South was compara- tively short in spades, led the ace and another trump to protect his own spade strength from rufts in dummy. This, as it happened, was not very important-South would have made his two-diamond con- tract agalnst any opening lead.

South's highly unconventional one-spade opening was not merely a haphazard "psychic"-thcre was a logical reason for the selection. South felt that any opening on his questionable values might mcrclv be "starting something," and it was quitipossible that ltis best action was to pass and hope that West would do likewise. On re- consideration, however, South felt that there was a very good chance that his side had the balance of power, so he decided to risk an opening in hope or converting his part-score into a game.

Having made that decision. the question was what to bid. South rejected the idea of a diamond or la club opening, because either of gthese would be too easy to over- call. Ideal1y—l1 defense had been the only consideration-South would have liked to bid a heart. but this was too risky. South could not afford to play the hand at hearts under any circumstances. whereas he could stand a spade contract. even if North raised to a fairly high level.

It should be observed that South's spade bid robbed East- West- oi their only safe chance to compete. West could not only sate- ‘ly "move" over one spade. and East certainly was not in better straits. over North's one notrump!

Right away Jumper felt easy. No enemy would be so careless of i noise made in moving about. Slow- 11y Jumpers long ears came up . until they were straight above his .head. Then Jumper sat up the better to see. Some one was mov- in; among the trees, but at first he couldn't be sure who it was. Then out from behind a cedar tree stepped Liyzhtfoot the Deer. Jumper and Lightfoot are old friends. The-v have much in comm- -on. Both love the Green Forest. Both live on much the same kinds

r of food. Both rare hunted by others and often must. run for their lives. trusting to their legs to get and keep them out oi‘ danger. But in one matter they are very different. When snow is deep in the Green Forest Jumper can move about on it. because his big long-teed hairy feet are like snowshoes. keeping him from sinking in. Lightfoolfs small sharp-edged hoofs cut down to the ground. To get around he must ivade or plunge through 1t. and when it is very deep he can get around only by tramping out paths. The snow wasn't deep enough for this and Llghtfoot was having no trouble in getting around. He wasn't as handsome as he had been in the fall. His coat looked some- what shaggy. He didn't hold his head high and carry himself as he had then. How proud he had been then of his antlers. which s0 many folk call horns! How he had tossed his head to show them off! Now he looked as if they were too heavy to be carried about. Llghtfoot stopped for s few
