UNC' BILLY FINDS OUT

Life is real and lite is stern; Therels something new each day to learn.

-Unc' Billy Possum.

Unc' Billy Possum was a scared Possum. Yes. sir. he was a scared Possum. Of course this was nothing new for Unc' Billy. He has been a scared Possum more times than he can remember. Being scared is part of everyday lite, not only with Unc' Billy but with most 0! the lit- tle pcople in the Green Forest and in the Green Meadows. This time it was Buster Bear who was giving Unc' Billy a scare. Unc' Billy was in a hollow stub of a dead tree, a bin. tall 5-tub. Buster Bear had tried to pull him out but couldnt reach him. Now he was trying something else. He was trying to push or pull that dead tree over, and Unc' Billy was getting a shak- ing up.

You soc. Buster was rockiniz t-hat stub back and forth. You know he is very. very strong. Being inside Unc' B-illy couldn't see what was going on and he wondered. All the time he was growing more and more scared and there wasn't a thing in the world he could do about it. So he shivered and shook Is the tree was shaken.

Bus-tor Bear was getting madder incl madder. Folks often get that way when they are trying to do things and can't do them. Buster was i.-rowllngz and. snarling. Fin- Illy he stopped trying to pull that stub over. Once more he climb- ed up to the top and there tried to tear out great pieces. If he couldn't push it over, he would tear it apart

-if he could.

Now Buster Bear had broken some of the old roots of that dead tree and he had loosened it. if he had had patience enough to keep on trying he might have pushed or

those people in whom patience never lasts long. So now here he -was back up at the top of that tree trying to tear it apart. As you I-onow. Buster is big. Only Flat Horns the Moose is bigger among the Green Forest folks. Being so big, of course, Buster is very heavy. All of A sudden Unc' Billy down inside heard a sharp cracking and snapping, then over went that tree with a crash. You rec. Buster had loosened it so that with his weight It the top it couldrio longer stand. ,0! course Buster tell with the me. That didn't. trouble him much. All his life Buster Bear has lotion or dropped out of trees with- out getting hurt. Sometimes Mien he is in a hurry to get down out of

Buster Bear was getting madder and madder. '

IGN OBING ALL WARNINGS

All experienced players know that than their own hands are "ireakish," there are apt to be un- usual breaks in several, perhaps in all. of the suits. This, of course. is simply a matter of arithmetic. If South, let us say, sees 12 cards of one suit in his own hand and dum- my, the opponents must have ex- tra length in other suits to make up their deiiciency in the North- South suit. To know this is to al- low (or it whenever possible. '

n todday's deal, however, South had other evidence besides that in front of his eyes: he should have paid more attention to the opposing biddingl

Here is 4 cwezsrrsaxswr fizr every rush:

hopeless! West took his blank ace

and forced dummy with a club. Now, when South cashed the ace of spades, he got the bad news that

the spade suit could not be es- tablished. and he could ruff only two of his own three remaining losers in durnmy.

In view of the "break" which

West's bidding had clearly disclos-' ed. South should have thought matters over more carefully. Pre- sumably. he was afraid to lead a spade immediately because an ap- ponent might ruff. but surely. only West. not East,-could be void of spades on this bidding! That being so, deelarer'.s second-trick play

should have been a spadel 11 West

'ruiied with the blank ace, it would

do no harm; and if West could ruff with the one low trump out- standing. the contract simply could not be made!
