"He's the handsomest bird in all the Great World." thought Mrs. Grouse. "The poor dear la lune- some. I have half a mind to slip out and join him Just to make him feel better."

But she did nothing of the kind. She continued to sit on those precious eggs. keeping them well covered and warm. That nest was at the foot of n pine tree, and low-growing boughs kept her well hidden. Not once did Thunderer think of looking beneath those boughs. It 'wasn't the sort of a place that he would have chosen for a nest, so of course, he didn't

CD00 F300-s GOOD LUCK - NOT GOOD BIDDING

South's ill-considered opening bid in the following hand might easily have cost him the rubber. but he was lucky.

South dealer. Both sides vulnerable. North-South 20 on Icon .g73i! O82 QQJ814 Q ILAJ10 9. 4! lo 4 as N Q.KiO1 CAO! W -E 83 9103 S 052 gins 4.-Isa: QAJ6 VG-75 QAK90 &QH The bidding:

One notrump was South's correct bid at any score. and the effect of his unwise diamond opening was to frighten North into giving a. shutout raise. If South had open- ed properly, North would not hsve taken. such a pessimistic view of his side's defensive capabilities. and South could have landed at the three-notrump contract which would have been so extremely easy to make. The actual four-H” ” contract could have been defeated. and would have been if East had been sufficiently alert.

West opened the spade king. but even with East starting an echo with the nine, West sensed that a spade continuation might go up to the A-J in the closed hand. so he shifted to a club. (If south had the club queen. West's king would be worthless anyway.)

The club ten held and South drew trumps in two rounds, then led 1 heart from dummy. East played low, and when West took the trick. he was helpless. He could not prevent South from setting up A heart trick upon which to dis- card one of du.m:my's spades.

It would have been a different story if East had given his partner a little protection! On the heart lead from dummy, East should have put up the king. and with that card holding. he could have led s spade through South. West's shift at the second trick clearly revealed the spade situation, and It was vital for East to get in quickly for the spade return.
