And there he was out in that strange now world as scared a young Mouse as ever ran on four legs. He was afraid to run back because of the noises in the wnodiiouso, so he ran as fast as he could straight ahead. He was runn- ing itlOng a trail made by many feet running back and forth, a path so faint that you and I wouldn't have seen it at all. But Nibbiet had no trouble in following it as fast as his feel. could take him. Perhaps his nose helped him to see it. It had been made by Robber the Rat and his friends visiting the woodhouse. Never had Nlbblet been so frightened. It was the first time he had ever so much as pok- ed his nose outside of four walls and the absence of walls or any- thing at all to hide under, or in, or behind frightened him terribly. Added to that was the fright of

l ANTICIPATING THE LEAD

In many cases a. player can be Pletty sure he will be happier with- out a certain lead against the con- tract he intends reaching. but this is not always the case! In today's dcal South went to some pains to discourage a lead in that stilt wherc he was unprotected-but he might have been better off by letting the enemy lead what they

wished. assuming only that the final threenotrump contract was correctly “placed? {outh dealer» ‘orth-Soutii mrincrlblc.

Disuii-sliig the deal llliCI. South said that lic lmri opened with one club largely to discourage that, lead against the threc-notrtimp con- tract wliicli he felt. should be reach- ed. Acvually. if South had opened with (let us say) one diamond, North might have become the do- clarcr at three notrump, and open- illg up to the king would ‘have given him the iunth trick.

As it. war, South was fortunate that West's natural opening was was a heart. South won, cashed his top Spades, and had some more good fortune in dropping the jack. When he cashed the fourth spade, discarding a heart 1mm dummy, East signalled vigorously with the club eight-which should have given South plenty of warn- ing. Ignoring this, however. South risked everything on the diamond finesse, cashing the icing, then leading lo his oim jack. When this finesse failed, West's prompt club shift (lclcatcd the contract.

South's method of handling the

Ho felt better when he ran out

of the moonlight into darkness.

I-Ie ‘was in the shadow of Farmer !BI'DWII'S barn and a moment later the reached the barn itself. Still ilollovring that trail he was soon inside. Such n relief that was, even though it was a wholly new and fearsome place. His heart was still going pitapat with fright, but at least there were things around him, not that dreadful nothing- iiess. He heard a faint squeak. An- other squeak answered lt. That was a relief, too. Those were voices of his own kind. There were other Mice here. If those Mice lived here ho could. He felt better, a lot better. Then he heard several sharp squeals, angry squeals.

"Robber the Rat! This must be where he lives!" thought he. He didn't; feel so good now. It was bad enough having to watch for that fellow when he visited the ivoodhousc, but to have him and others like him for constant neigh- hors would he worse, very much ‘NOISE. ‘

"I don't think we have met be- lfore," squoaked a voice. A young I Mouse near his own age appeared

suddenly. it was R. young lady IMouse. She was good-looking. She ‘ was plump. She looked as if she had been living Well on good food and with plenty of it. Nlbblct for- got to be afraid. He had eyes for only pretty Miss Mouse. “Do you livc here" he asked.

"Ol course I do. It is the most wonderful place in all the Great World. Do you live here?" replied Miss Mouse.

“Of course I do. Anyway I'm going to,“ replied Nibblet, making up his mind right then and there. "If you live here it must be n won- [dcrful plncc indeed."

"It is. I'll show you around. lJiist follow mo," replied pretty

Miss Mouse ooyly.

"I'll always follow you. declared lNibblet happily. And this is how ‘Nlbblet came to live in a wonder- lful new "world, Farmer Brown's I big barn.
