A QUESTION OF PLAY A dozen well known experts found much to discuss concerning the play for six spades in the following deal :

The actual declarer, after winning with the blank ace. led a club to the queen. discarded a diamond on the heart king, then led the club six to the ace 1-le ruffed his last small club in dummy, then cashed the top trumps. West, showed out. and it became known that South would have to lose a spade trick. I-le laid down the high club. East ruffed and exited with a heart. which dcclarer rumsd. NOW South had to rely on the dia- mond finesse. and that went wrong.

Obviously. South could have finessed against the spade jack.- but that double-dummy play didl not enter the postmortem dis-' cussion. What concerned most nil the assembled experts was that: South had "passed up the nm 0;. play most likely to succeed againsti any reasonable break of cards." Their excellent plan was as foi- lows:

At the second trick. South leads to the club queen. and he rashes! the heart king for ll diamond dis. card. but next. he should ruff in heart. He cashes the club ace and ruffs a club in dummy, after which he trumys dunimyls last heart with the ten. Now he lays down the three trumpssand the fact that East has a sure trump trick if of no consqucnce! South lays down his last club. East can ruff. but then must return a din- mond from the king up to dum- "1Y'S A-Q. 11' East does not ruff the club-if he discards a diamond -South simply cashes the dia-

mond ace for the twelfth trick.

stomach than on an empty one. Little Jim was just like his Father. As long as his stomach was full. he was hapvy. even though he was a prisoner of Farmer Brown's boy. He was a prisoner without feeling to be a prisoner.

"I don't: know what you are keeping that little Skunk for." said Farmer Brown.

"To keep him out of: troub1e." replied Farmer Brown's boy. ”Aa long as he is here he is safe. Be- sides I think he is happy."

"Do you think that you would be happy?" asked Farmer Brown.

Farmer Brown's boy grinned.

As long as his stomach was full he was happy.

play and be always safe I might," said he. Then his good-natured freckled face grew sober. "He is too little to be wandering about all alone," he added. "When he is big enough to take care of himself. to find his food and to know when and how to use the scent gun of his. I'll let him go if he wants to.

I have an idea he will stay around." , "What makes you think so?"

asked Farmer Brown.

Tommy grinned again. "He likes his food and he would soon find out. that he couldn't get so inimy good things so easily if he had to hunt for them himself. He is a true son of his father and there is nothing stupid about Jimmy Skunk. some folks think because he so seldom hurries he is stupid, but that is their mistake. It is his independence. He knows he doesn't have to hurry so he doesn't. Little Jim is just like him. You should have seen him stands ing up to a lot of Hens when I found him. And then he did the same thing to me."

"What does he cat?" asked Far- mer Brown. "You can't catch enough Beetles and Grasshoppers. and dig enough grubs for him Those and such meat as he could find are what he would be living on it he were free and hunting for his own food "

Tommy chuckled. "Ask me what he doesn't eat, It would be easier to answer,' said he. "lie is a small person with a big appetite and he eats about anything and every- thing I give him. He eats all sorts of table scraps-meat. vegetables. fruit. fish. He even likes raisins. Of course I give him milk every day. and he loves that.

"By the way." said Farnier Brown, "I guess Bobby Coon has discovered that our corn is in the milk. I found several ears lying on the ground and only partly eaten. If the rascal would simply take
