Th“! who arumble and complain Seldom anything will gain.

Usually those who grumble and com-plain the most are the ones who have the least to do. They grumble and complain over noth- ing, or next to nothing. because they have nothing else to do. or if they have they don't want to do it. They seem to find a queer sort o! pleasure in grumbling and complaining.

complaining. l-le wasn't complain- 1118 to anybody because there was no one near to complain to. Per_ hops it was because he had noth. ing else to do, or perhaps it was to hear the sound of his own voice. "It is too hot." grumbled Bus. ter. "It has been too hot too long. It is too dry. Berries are no good because they are all dried up. Everything is dried up, or will be if there isn't rain soon. Guess I'll go over to the pond of Paddy the Beaver and try to cool 0"- NO. I wont.

BEWARE THE HANDS!

Paradoxical as it may seem. many of‘ the hands that appear the easiest are the most danger- ous in actual play. For example:

The heart jack was West's open-- ing lead. South inspected the dummy, smiled approvingly - and then dug a plt for himself! His second-trick play was the- dia- mond ace, and then he led another round of the suit to take out dum-

my's last diamond. East took the trick and returned his trump. South won, ruffed a diamond,

overtook a trump and miffed his last diamond, then had to get back to his own hand to draw trumps. That, however. was more easily planned than executed! Af- ter South ruffed the third round of clubs he found that West had more trumps than he had, and de- feat was inevitable.

If trumps had broken well. the contract would have been easy to make via almost any line of play. But the possibility of a 4-1 break should have been South's prime concern and he should have "taken out insurance." This would be one

way:

After winning the opening lead, South immediately cashcs the top clubs. The danger that an op- ponent can ruff is extremely slight and once that is past, South has easy sailing. He next ruffs a club with an honor, returns to dummy with a heart. ruffs the last club with another honor, then caches his remaining trump honor. Now ho leads the spade eight to dummy and draws as many rounds 0f "limbs as he must, discarding losing diamonds from his own

“Probably nothing in there," he grumbled. "Anyway it is too much work and too hot to find out. l haven‘t any appetite. when it's too hot for me to eat it's hot. Yes, sir, it's hot." Looking up he saw piled up clouds that looked like mountains in the sky showing above the tops of the surrounding trees. They were what are called thunderclouds. Buster knew what they meant. He had often seen such clouds before. For the first time he noticed the stillness all about him, Not a leaf stirred. It was as if Old Mother Nature was expecting something to happen and was holding her breath while she waited. Buster Bear began to feel uneasy and that feeling grew as he watched the clouds rise high and hide the face of hot Mr. Sun. The day became dark. Thunder rumbled and lightning streaked across the clouds. "There is going to be a storm. the kind of a. storm I don‘t like. I better Iind some place where I will be out of it and find it in a hurry." he grumbled. He began to run. A! he ran his feeling of uneasiness grew. The truth is Buster Bear was scared, not of what was, but o: what might be. Yes, sir, he was scared. He wouldn‘t have admitted it. but it was so.

He remembered that not far away was a big windfall. 1n some great wind a number of trees had been blown over so that_ they had fallen on one another in a rent tangled pile. Such a pile of alien trees is called a windfall. He could creep in under that wind- fall and beout of the ‘rind. which was now blowing hard and would blow harder and harder. There he could keep fairly dry when the rain fell. He knew all about that windfall. He had slept un- der it more than once.

The storm was very close now. The lightning flashed with little time between the ﬂashes. It seemed to Buster that his heart jumped with every flash. I-ie knew it did with every clap of thunder. i-le could see the tall pine tree growing close to the windfall. It was the tallest tree anywhere around. He ilVli-S almost there as the first big drops of rain fell. In a moment he would be at the opening under it at the foot of that tall tree.

He never did get there. There was a blinding flash and with it a cla-p of thunder that seemed to shake the ground under his feet. He fell heels over head. scrambled to his feet, and just as part of the tell pine came crashing down he plunged away from there, run- ning blindly so that he bumped into trees and tumbled over logs. He was bowling with fright. Yes, sir, great big Buster Bear was bowling with fr'(;ht. He didnt know what had happened. He was too frightened to even won- der what had happened. But ou know. Lightning had strueg t at tall tree.
