He discarded a spade on dlimmys second club honor, and aitrr West ruffed this trick and returned the ace and another spade, South was in control. The two successful (ic- ciarera laid down the lice and all- other heart. and West either had to give dummy entry then and there with the spade jack, or lead a diamond. The upshot was that these two dcclarcrs lost only the club ruff. a natural licart trick, one spade and one f'ilillllOll(l.

Thus. by collect- ing one spade irick. one diamond and three trumps, this East-W:-sl. pair defeated the contract and earned top-score on the board.

that were ripe and about ready to fail. These had been on that tree for nearly a year. growing bigger and bigger all the time. To him it seemed queer that there should be. or could be, blossoms and fruit of all sizes on a. tree at the same time. and that a tree could and did bear fruit all the year through. But to the folks who lived there

Swifts ask only to be allowed to remain in fl. nice chimney: Tree Swallows and Mtartins like to have little houses made expressly for them. There is no need for fancy decorations on any of their eggs.

Two very different types of birds dig out tunnels in sandbanks for homes. The Bank Swallow works back for at least iii inches. and sometimes 33 inches into the sand. The last part is widened and scooped out slightly. straw, grass. and feathers brought in. and there 5 eggs are placed m white, nat- urally. The Belted Kingfisher tun- ncls in from 4 in 15 feet. enlarg- ing the fiir end for a bedroom. and is to ii glossy eggs rest right on the sand.

Neither Phoehes nor Humming- birds live in holes. nevertheless their while eggs are not on view. The Phoebe builds under bridges, culverts. or barns; the Humming- bird's nest is deeper than it is wide, just a tiny knot-like lump on in branch.

Are many birds crested?

of bananas hanging from a tree he thought them a queer sight be- cause they seemed to him to be

each banana hung out from the stem and pointed up instead of down. The ones he had seen hang- ing in stores were the ones really upside-down.

For breakfast he had served him what he thought was a piece of melon. It was rich golden yellow. It looked like melon. He ate it as he would have eaten a piece of melon. It had a different taste from any melon he ever had eaten but he liked it. It was not at all strange to him that it did not have a. familiar taste. No two kinds of melons taste alike. and this was simply a new kind of melon.

Later that day when he was out for a walk he saw it rather slender tree. not very tall and with a smooth straight. trunk with no branches up to the top. There. un- der ll crown of leaves. was a clus- ter of what looked like green mel- ons with one which was fully ripe and was bright yellow. He stopped to look ilp at it and there was I queer expression on his freckled face.

"Well." said armcr Brown's boy. "I never expected to see melons growing on a tree."

The friend who Eves with him laughed. "That isn't a melon," said he. "It was one of those from that very tree that you had for breakfast this morning."

"But -that was a melon. or I dont know .1 melon when I see one." cried Farmer Brown's boy.

"You may know it melon when you see one. but you are not see- ing one now slid that wasn't a. melon you ate for breakfast." chuckled his friend.

"Then what was it?" demanded Farmer Brown's buy.

"It was I papaya. sometimes called pawpaw. fruit of a tree. not or a vine as are melons." was the reply.

A little later that very morring he -saw hanging from the branches of a tall tree a number of what he supposed must be fruit. or at least things that had grown on the tree. whatever they were they were queer. Never had he seen unything quite like them. "That's queer- looklng fruit," said he, His friend laughed.
