SALLY SLY GOSSIPS

Gossips conversation": spice. Much is bad; a little nice.

-Sally Sly.

Sally Sly the Oowbird was in the Old Pasture with several others of tier nwii kind. They were walking ibout among the Cows. It is be- :ause they are so fond of Cows ind other cattle that they Ire called Cowbirds. Long, long igo, way back in the days

when the world was young. the first if the Cowbird family made an im- portant discovery. It was that cat- :le could be the best friend of bird tolk. Big feet moving along the ground disturb a lot of insects hi- iling in the grass. So by just keep- 'ng close to those big moving feet at the cattle, it is an easy matter to catch a good dinner without the trouble of having to look for it.

So it was that Sally Sly and her I.-iends were getting a good break- test as they walked about among the grazing Cows in the Old Past- ure. Some of those insects disturb- ed by the hoois of the Cows. al- m&t jumped right into the bills of some of those birds. It was great tun catching a hreiiktast so easily, and gossiping while they breakfast- ed.

"Have you had a good season?" asked I neighbor of Sally Sh;

"A very good season," replied Belly. ,

"How many eggs did you lay?" asked the other.

"I don't remember exactly." re- plied Sally Sly. "I sort of lost count."

"0! course you didn't build a nest." said the other.

"Of course not. No self-respect lng Cowbird ever builds a nest. and I hope I'm self-respecting," declared Sally SIy.l

"Sometimes." said the other, "I think that we Cowbirds are the mly truly smart birds in the neigh- borhood. We are the only ones I mow or smart enough to get others

On opening lead, West gave long

Declzirer ruffed the opening lead and promptly laid down the tnimp ace. hoping, of course, that the jack would fall. It did not, how- ever, and the result was a two- trick defeat.

It cost South precisely 1740 points to try in drop the club lack single- ion in this deal. He didn't need that bit of luck. The winning plan was to lead to the heart ace at the second trick and ruff a heart, then in lead a low trump to dummy. Observe the effect. West could not do -better than put up the trump j:-ck and shift to diamonds. The me would win and declarer would ruff another heart, establishing the rest of the suit mid getting back to dummy with to trump

Experts, pitted against lesser players, have a horror of running into the succession of "flat" hands. when the distribution all around the table is 4-3-3-3-. 4-4-3-2, or anything on this order, there is far less chance to exploit bidding and playing skill than when the 8 hands are treakish, with long suits, mistake if the other evgs in thei i'""” -V"" him d Elma 5”9”"7" 5i"g)em”5 imd "M5 much 1'" EV"
