West led the gspade king. and South. probably with no concrete idea except to limit his loss. held up the ace. South won the sec- ond spade and took a heart finesse. then ran his five diamond tricks. discarding a club and a spade from dummy.

East had thrown off a club on the second trick. butgwhen he had to find two more discards on the diamonds. he was very un- happy. Realizing that he could not afford to give up his potential lif'8l'l stopper. he reduced to the queen-ten of clubs. Thereupon. South again fincssed hearts. cashed the heart ace for a spade discard. and won the last three. fulfilling tricks with the three clubs.

"In a small hollow log over in the dear Old Brier-patch," was the surprising reply.

Peter really blinked this time. "Do you mean to tell me that you were a close ncighbo of mine all winter?" cried Peter.

"I don't know whether I was a neighbor of yours or not. I'm just telling you where I slept through the winter," hummed the big Bee.

"Are you staying over there now?" asked Peter.

"But-but-but-" Peter stopped. "But what?" asked Queen Bumble.

"I don't be all alone after a- whiie." retorted Queen Bumble.
