-Old Mr. Toad.

Old Mr. T..;a';7.. so near en; smiling Pool that he was making his hops longer than ever. Every

i hop was as long a hop as he could

make it. Hop, hop. 'hop. nippity hop went Old Mr. Toad. He act.- ualiy iorgot to look this way and that way. He could see the water now. Those lovely golden eyes were looking straight. ahead where the smiling Pool dlmpled and spark- led and shirnmered as it was kiss- nd by the dancing Little Sun for his pm. me uEt"n"e was'iIfE; iustliied in persisting to the five- level. Vulnerable against nonvol- nerable opponents. North did not want to settle ior what might be a small penalty lf'West had the freak two-suiter which his bidding indicated.

West opened the heart queen. and when south saw the dummy, it appeared that he would have to lose a heart and a club. Alter long consideration. however, South fig- ured out a chance for the contract and promptly played for it. Winning the first trick with the heart king. he drew two rounds of trumps, then cashed the dia- mond ace and led to the diamond king. West's showing out was very satisfactory. since it coniirmed the distribution which declare: had attributed to West.

Now dummy's third diamond was led - and south did not run: he discarded a heart! East made the

Merry Little Breesas.

The chorus of the happy singers there was so loud now that he could hear nothing else. He didn't hear macky the crow carving a wamlng as he iiew overhead. He didn't hear Redwing the Black- bird watching him ii-om the top 0! an alder bush at the upper end oi the smiling Pool. He heard nothing but that mighty love song rising irom all round the dimpl- ing water oi the smiling Pool.

The nearer he got. the more he tried to hurry. Have you ever watched anybody very slow try to hurry? It can be almost painiul to watch. It was that way with Old Mr. Toad. It seemed sometimes as if he almost .iell over his own ieet. People who are in too much oi a hurry olten do that.

"I! he doesn't watch out he is going to jump straight into trouble. He's done it once and he'll do it again." said Blacky the Crow. as he watched Old Mr. Toad hftpnlng straight toward Longlegs the Her- on. Longlegs was standing on one loot. Kelooked as it he were one- legged. The other leg and ioot were drawn up and hidden in tho leathers or his waistcoat. His long neck was iolded back on his shoul- ders so that he seemed to have al- most no neck at all. He had his back to Old Mr. Toad. and that was R lucky thing for Mr. Toad Had he not. had his back to Mr. Toad this story might have. and pro- bably would have. a very diiierent ending. '

Longiegs lifted his head. some-' thing happened. All the singers stopped singing. It was just as it

lng. 'I'hat was a danger signal. Those nearest to him. missing his voice. stopped too. And so the signal ran all away around the smiling Pool. and all was still.

Slowly. very slowly. Longlegs folded his long neck back again, until he was just as he was oeiore. When 't.he sweet singers in the water stopped singing Old Mr. Toad stopped hopping. He. too, kept periectly still. No one moved. but everyone was listening. All they heard was the cawing oi llacky the Crow. who was Walsh- ing trom the big hickory tree that grows on the bank of the smiling Pool. No one was paying any at- tention to Blacky. At long last. om- oi' the singers on the iartncr side oi the Smiling Pool began to ring. It was Peepcr the Hyla. Another I-lyla joined in. another and an- other and another. Old Mr. Toad began to hop. It would take only a few more hops to reach the water. was Old Mrs. Toad waiting ior
