"pure" form; hence, southis tour- notrump bid asked ior North's aces, and Northis tive-spade reply showed three aces. Since south himselt had all tour kings, there was no point in then bidding five notrump-he simply had to decide whether he should conservatively contract for a small slam, or take a chance on the grand slam. Being the speculative type or player. he "went all out."

West. opened his top club. south drew trumps, discarded a diamond on dummy's third club, cashed one high heart to see whether the queen would drop, and then went to dummy with a diamond and took the heart finesse. It lost, and South then had to listen to q lec- ture from his partner for not hav- ing stopped at the small slam.

It is true that the lower slam contract would have been more dis- creet, but it South had played the hand to the best advantage, he probably would have faced a smil- ing partner.

The best line of play would. in etlect. have combined three sep- arate chances. south banked on the heart iinesse alone, whereas he should have pi-ceeded as fol- lows:

Win the first trick with the club king, draw trumps, cash the ace and king of hearts, then lead the club jack to the queen and discard the low heart-not the dia- mond-on dummy's third club. Now lead the heart jack. If East started with Q-x-x in hearts, the queen now appears, and of course south rutis, setting up the ten in dummy. However, he also runs the third heart it last plays low- thus also succeeding it West had Q-x-x,-originally, as was the case. This line or play. moreover, takes care or an original 0-2: of hearts. West. whereas the strbight iinesso would lose to that combl tion.

she knows is that she done got enough."

"They are your babies we, aren't they '2" asked Peter.

"Ah reokon so," replied Unc' Billy. "Ah has nevah seen 'em be- to', so Ah don't know how many there are."

"There a pocket iull and that's plenty." grunted Mrs. Possum.

All the time most of the babies had been in Mrs. Possum's big in- side pocket in which she carries them from the time they are very tiny until they are too big, They were almost too big now. They be- gan coming out of that big pocket. A sharp little face would be poked out, then out would scramble a lively youngster who couldn't pos- sible be mistaken for any one but a baby Possum.

out they came one after the cther and began climbing all over their mother. They were hanging onto her sides and her back and her tail. They were hanging on all over her. Peter's eyes opened very wide as the tenth one came out. "Is that all?" he asked.

"Ah hope so," grunted Mrs. Pos- sum. Ur.ic' Billy said nothing. You see, Unc' Billy doesnlt take any care of the children and so it doesnt matter to him how many there may be. .

Mrs. Possum's fur was all every which way; all rumpled up. It couldn't very well be otherwise with so many hangers-on.crawling all over her. She shook herself. she shook herseli hard. Not a single little hanger-on fell off. one almost tell but his small tail was clinging to mother's tail.

Peter Rabbit began to chuckle. Jumper the Hare began to chuckle. "What are yo' laughing 10'?" whin- ed Mrs. Possum.

"At you,” replied Peter, bluntly. "it you could see yourself with all those babies hanging on, you would laugh. too. I know it isn't polite to laugh at ioiks, but sometimes it is impossible not to, and really, Mrs. Possum, you do look iunny."

Peter was quite right about that. Mrs. Possum. did look funny. Pre- sently some or the babies went Lack into the pocket. She started to climb a tree. She was climbing the tree in which Logcock the Woodpecker had made a big hole and some smaller ones.

"What are you climbing up there tor?" asked Peter. who is always curious about other people and what they are doing.

Mrs. Possum said nothing. She went on up and looked into the big hole the Woodpecker had cut. Then she began to climb down again. "It isn't big enough." she whlned. '
