Rattles the Kingfisher wasn't happy. No, sir. he wasn't happy. Mrs. Rattles was having her way and he didn't approve at all. But there was nothing he could do about it. She had made up her mind. and when she makes up her mind about a thing the matter usually is settled in so far as he is concerned. This time it was the location for their new home. Rai- tles lvnnted to dig it in a sand bank along the Big River, but Mrs. Rattles had found a small sand pit for back from the Big River and had decided that there was where the new home was to be.

She had started in dig before Rattles not there that morning, for instead of going over to the sand pit with her he had gone fishing. Perhaps he hoped that she would think that he wasn't coming and would give up trying to have their home over there. But when she didn't join him, he went

It is quite possible that today's deciarer would have been defeated. no matter how well he played the hand-but one thing is sure: he could have made a better ei r-ts

south used up all of his values when he made his first jump re- bid. and even though North then leaped to five clubs (who can blame him?) South should have stopped at game. Actually, how- ever, South's optimism might have been rewarded if he had fully capitalized his chances.

Wt-st opened the heart Jack: East (some-what illogically) put up the king. and South won. South drew the outstanding trumps in one round-and then laid down the spade queen.

West knew that declarer would not have led the spade queen if he had held the ace as well-- he would haw iinessod-so West was not even tempted to put in his spade king, East won the trick and returned the heart five, and South was helpless from that time on.

To repeat--perhaps wouldn't have made the contract in any event. but he certainly could have made East "squirm." The deceptive ( and probably suc- cessful) plan was to lead the spade jack from dummy! Observe East's dilemma! if he ducked. as he so well might. to give South the chance to guess wrong if he held king-small, South's queen would knock out West's king. and later South would have a ruffing-fin- esse through East's spade arc.

to look for her. She was busy dic- ging. All he could see of her was the tip of her tail sticking out of the hole she was digging in the side of the pit. From the 3333"”? in which the tip of that tail was twitching and jerking. she was working hard, but no Sand W715 being kicked out of that hole. After a while a little sand did trickle out. Then a big pebble rol- led down to the bottom of the pit. That. was the reason there had been no sand. That pebble had been in the way and it was to loosen this and get it out of the way that Mrs. Rattles had been working so hard.

She backed out and perched on a stake at the edge or the pit.

she shook sand out from the tous- led feathers of her head and shook herself all over. "It is time you got here to help with the digging." said she crossiy.

Rattles said nothing. He flew over to the hole and went to work. He dug with his big pointed bill.

He scratched and kicked the lon:- l

ened sand under and out behind him. But he dug only a little way. a very little way. before coming to a sort of pocket of small peb- bles packed closeiy together. He worked and worked to loosen them. Finally he backed out in disgust.

"I told you this is no place for a home. There are too many stones in the way. We'll ruin our bills trying to dig them out," said be. He sounded cross.

"The trouble with you is you are afraid of a little work," retorted Mrs. Rattles as she flew back to the hole and went to work again.

Rattles flew off to the Smiling Pool. He was out of sorts. He would go fishing. But he didn't fish long. He had to go back. He found Mrs. Rattles digging another hole. There was still another she had started and given up because of more bothersome pebbles. she was persistent, was Mrs. Rattles. Per- sistence is a good thing..some- times.

Now she was out of sight in the newest hole. When she came out Rattles didn't say a word. He went right in and to work. This time it was Quite easy digging. There were no bothersome pebbles. Such stones as there were, were no trouble at all. They Were too small to be bother- some. After a while Rattles came out to shake the sand out of his coat and tousled head. to get some fresh air. and to rest a bit.

No sooner was Rattles out than Mrs. Rattles was in and the sand began to trickle out of the en- tmnce again. After a. little it stop- ped trickling out. Rattles watched as he waited. He waited and wait- ed. No sand.

"Trouble in there. something is stopping her digging. thought Rattles. "Probably more little stones. This is no place for a King- fisher home." But he didn't say this when Mrs. Rattles came out looking tired and discouraged. He held his tongue and went inside to find out what the trouble was.

He found out. It was a stone. It "Wt I pebble or a lot of pebbles packed together. It was a stone bigger than any down in the bot. tom of the sand pit and some of
