DISCRIMINATION
It is not always easy tor a. de- clsrer to decide which of two long suits he should try to establish. In most cases. however, the de- cision should rest on the vital mat- ter od entries. That was true in the following deal:

Nor-Lh was a little "isncy" when he bid two ends on the sec- ond roun . instead 01 two hearts 0, on. notrunsy, but there WI! quite a bit to be said 10! his select- ion. as a "build-up" ot the bidding.
west. knowing that south rare- iy bid a "short club." shied sway irom that suit and opened the Ilx or spades. (This lead, though in no sense "killing." at least gave declares the chance to make a mis- take.)
Declsrer won the iirst trick and.
after only I. oment's tr sht. started in cash clubs. The bad break or the suit. however, soon came to light. so. alter Winnlnl the second club trick in his own hand, south led and passed the heart queen. East blandiy let the iinesse hold. and then south took a desperate second heart tinesse. East was not slow about tslrinl this trick. and now the dummy was dead. A two-trick set was the out- come. - Declsrer did not give enough thought to the hand! The club tricks were there for the taking it the suit broke well; the Hght plan was to reserve that suit ior iuture investigation, because of the scarcity or entries in dummy. At the second trick south should have led and passed the heart queen. and when it held. continued with another heart lead. it the heart suit broke well, only three clubs and no diamonds would be re- qulred; whereas even with live clubs and two spades, south would still need two heart tricks; .whiie with four clubs-assuming a 4-2 break-he would need two hearts and a diamond.

Waterioot ' eld up one oi his hind test and looked at it.
h.:::.-v-:-- Where is this Brier-patch you talk about?" asked the Water Shrew.
"Over on the Green Meadows. Why don't you come over then tor a visit and see what it is like? There is no place like it." replied Peter.
"Is there plenty of water there, as there is here?" wsterioot want- ed to know.
"There isn't any water there." replied Peter. "Except when there is rain. it is aways nice and dry there. It is the safest. nicest place in all the Great World."
"What. no waterl" squeaked the small person with the sharp nose and tiny eyes. "No water to run on. or dive in. or swim in. or get one's iood in! How dreadful. How does anyone live in such a place as that?"
'Your cousin Short-tail and his family live there and like it. They show good sense." retorted Peter.
"Listen!" cried the water Shrew. "I've heard that I have cousins who live where there is no water
How can they live in a. place like that? What do they eat? How do they catch fish where there is no water? How do they keep iroxn drying up. What a place to live! What a place!"
"Your cousins don't care about water, not any of them that 1- know. I guess they wouldn't like a lot oi it. I'm sure they wouldn't,” declared Peter.
"Then they don't know how to live. But each to his own taste. I couldn't be happy where there
(mm the Smiling Pool or Laugh- ing Brook. 1 would die. Yes. sir. I would die. I know it. Did you say Cousin short-teii's ieet are smaller than mine?" Waterioot held up a hind Ioot again.
Peter looked at it closely. "Yes," said he. "Yours is much bigger than his. It is broader and-and-" Peter hesitated.
"And whst?" asked the shrew ahlfply.
"Are those hairs along the sides or your toes?" Peter wanted to know.
"Oi course." replied Wsterloot. "What else could they be"?
"I don't know." coniessed Pe- ter. "Your cousins haven't any. Their toes are mouth. Anyway I'm sure they haven't any little short stiit hairs like those you have. What are they for?"
"Oh I suppose they help me stay up when I'm walking or running on the water. A fellow needs big broad hsiry ieet to walk on water, I guess," replied the little shrew.
It was a good guess. But big: broad ieet were not enough alone. This wasn't the whole or Water- .ioot's secret. No indeed. Perhaps it wasn't the most important part of the water shrew's secret. And per- haps he didn't himseli know the real secret. when he ran on the water he held tiny. tiny air bubbles in his feet. Just as air-tilled tire tubes keep boys and girls ailost when they are learning to swim, so these tiny sir bubbles in his feet ikeep Waterioot the water shrew from sinking in and he is able to travel short distances in the sur- race or the water. That is Water- ioot's real secret.
But Peter Rabbit doesn't know it to this day.
The total estimated value all live- stock on (arms the United States on Jan. 1. 1949. was 810.- 587080.000.
