PETER TAKES A CIIANCI
All the smaller folkl in tur Take a. chance each time they stir. . —Oid Mother Nature.
Boys and girls are more fortunate than the little people at the Green Forest and the Green Meadows, for they seldom have to take chances that may cost or save them their lives. More often than not when they do take chances it is because they are toolish or careless, not be- cause they have .0. But with the Green Forest and Green Meadow folks taking chances is part at dilly “Vine. Almost every time they m°.\’° "WY take a chance. This is bechuse keen eyes are always Wfivtchlnl for them. .A£ I rule thong K9911 Eyes see them only when they move. As long as they are periectly still they remain unseen. so it La that most of them take chaneu Wcry day of their lives, often several chances.
Thus one of the first a important things they n':.m°f§ learn when they are just atartin out in the Great World is to no.5 When to take a chance and when not to. They must learn to knm'v 3 sood chance when it occur; “"1 %

South lost his game contract in today's deal by making a play that was utterly illogical.

The ace {elled South's blank queen, but the club suit was blocked by East's ten.
East cashed the club ten and South discarded the nine of spades. Bast then shiited to I low spu:le—- and south felt that he was put to a guess. should he lei: the lead ride to dummy’s jack, playing East ior the queen. or put up the spade king, playing East for the ace? He guessed wrong. West got in with the spade queen to cash his good club. and a spade return to the ace defeated the contract.
South's "guess in spades was act- ually a very bad playl He should have realized that his only chance was to keep west oil lead and thus prevent him from cashing a club trick; and obviously,“ West had the spade ace. this could not be done.

he is safe. and knows that he is safe. But being sale may some- times be very dull, so Peter takes a lot oi chances that he doesnt have to, and he seldom tlnds life dull for any lencth or time.
Now Peter prides himself on knowing a. chance when it alters and judging how good it is. He has had some very, very narrow es- capes, but so far he has always won. Let us hope he never will take one chance too many. He is very sure he won't. but people can be too sure, especially about tak- ing chances.
There was the any Peter had spent Just inside the book doorway of Johnny chuck’: house because he hadn't dared try to run home to the Old Brlar-patch. That had seemed to him the longest day he ever had known. Every little while, all day long, he had poked his head out or even ventured whol- ly out. to see it the way was clear for him to get home to the dear old Briar-patch. Every tlmrbe had discovered Roddy mix. or Red- taii the Hawk, or some dull!‘ hungry hunter which would be sure to catch him beiore he could reach the Old Brlar-patch. Inch time he had quietly crawled back into we back hall oi.’ Johnny Chuck's house hoping that Johnny wouldn't discover he was there. The feeling that Johnny might find him there and drive him out was most uncomlortable.
Then. late in the aiternoon, he heard a sound that made him prick up his cars. It was a sound he knew well, for he had heard it many times beiore, it was the deep voice of Bowser the Hound telling all who might hear that he had found the trail of a. Fox. At first it seemed to be oomins from way over on the far side of the Green Meadows. It grew louder, and loud- er still.
‘He is coming this way and that means that the Fox whoever it is he is chasing. is coming or has sl- ready passed this -way, I wonder if it is Reddy or Mrs. Raddy," thought Peter.
He crept close to the doorway the better to see outside. He was just in time to see Roddy Fox pass. He was running easily but he look- ed annoyed. He was running to- ward the Old Brlar—patch. Peter guessed that he would run around it and go on to a swamp for be- yond where in water he might break his trail. In a couple or min- utes along csme Bowser haying joyously.
In a instant Peter saw a chance to get home. In it flash he was out through that back door, Away he went. llpperty, lipperty. lip aicer Bowser. He knew that with that fresh scent of Fox to iollow Bowser would take no notice of anything 0!‘ my one else. or course th:!'C was nothing to fear from Roddy. Mrs. Roddy would keep away, and there wasn't a Hawk in sight. It was a chance to get home. Peter didn't miss it. He is smart that way.
