Fear so great that it. was terror was making them run ins-r than any oi them ‘ever had run beiore. They were Mrs. Lightioot the Deer and her two lawns, now big enough to be swiit for short dis- tances. and Mother Boar and two cubs, now good-sized young Bears, ior they had been born the year beiore and were big enough to

The iear in the eyes oi Mrs. Lightioot was no greater than the iear in the eyes oi big. lumbering Mrs. Bear. it didn't seem possible that‘ one so» big and heavy, who looked so clumsy could keep with one with such long slander legs that seemed made ior speed, but Mrs. Bear was keeping up with Mrs, Lightioot. For a while the lawns and the cubskapt right at the heels oi their mothers. Now they couldn't keep up and were dropping back little by little. They were whimpering.

For a time there had been no thought in the minds oi the two mothers but to run - run away irom tho Red Terror. Now they lmew they couldn't; that run as they might the Rod Terror would catch them. and it would catch tho children iirst. It was then that Mrs. Llghtioot remembered some- thing.

"Paddy tho Beaver!” shs pantod as she leit the old woodrosd in which they were running and headed in another direction.

Mrs. Bear understood what she n1eant.\“Oi course." she gasped as she turned also. The despair that hsd iilleci her gsvo way to a little hops. Oi course. the inwns and the cubs ioilowed. somehow they ‘managed not to (all isrther be- hind. Perhaps without knowing why, they also ielt a little hope.

King Eagle, watching from high above saw and understood. lie could seo the ponds oi Paddy the Beaver an it was ior the largest oi these that Mrs. Light- ioot was heading withthe others close behind. Would they make iti

ling, snapping roaring ilames were gaining slowly but surely.

"Run, Oh run!" screamed King Eagle, and again he didn't know that he did so.

Around this pond the trees had been cut ior some distances back irom tho water. Into this opening dashed Mrs. Lightioot with the other close behind. It was easiest running there. It was well that it was so ior the ilames were ‘so near that tho hot breath oi them singed the coats oi tho two who were last.

splash! splash! splnshi splash! splash! splash! Three Deer and three Bears landed in thonrvatsr and waded out until only their heads were abovo tho surisoo. They were none too soon. ior tho angry ﬂames came racing through the dry leaves and brush right to the water's edge. Then the ilro went roaring sway around tho Great Mountain.

King Esglo hadn't been sblo to see the end oi that rsco ior liio. Just as tho runners had reached the opening around the pond a cloud oi smoke hsd settled over it and the pond. It hid everything irom view. anxiously King Eagle circled and clrclqi high above waiting ior that smoke to liio, It seemed to him that itmever would Had all oi them reached the water in time?

West rearing to lead irom his tenaces in the major suits, and also iearing that a diamond lead

would help to establish North's bid suit, opened a trump. South won in the closed hand and gave serious consideration to the best line oi play. It was plain that ii he could run diamonds without loss. he would make a great many tricks, but he saw no reason to be optimistic in that respect. The diamond queen could certainly be oil side-it was not a card that would have ilgured largely in the bid made by West or in East's passes.

card that South had every reason to feel was in a iavorable position ‘Phat was the heart king. West, vulnerable. had overcalled the club bid with s spade, and since ho locked the king. isck and ten in his own suit. it was extremely probable that ho had tho heart

Thero was no assurance about anything, but it was a great deal more likely thst the heart king was on sido than that the dia- mond quecn could be captured. Acting on that sound promise, de- clsrcr took an immediate heart iinasso. and when the queen hold, he discarded s diamond on tho heart ace. He then cashed the ace and king oi diamonds, ruiied a diamond high in his own hand, cashed the club ace. an iinally re- turned to dummy with a club to run the two established diamonds. Thus. South took (in all) six club tricks. iour diamonds and two hearts, making his contract with an overtrick, whereas less analy- tical plsy‘would have met deieat.
