He wasn't thinking about i00kS- No. sir. he wasn't thinking about looks. Long ago he had slcrpped thinking about how he looked. There were more im- portunt things to think about. He had" learned that long ago when he was much younger and much smaller than he now was. for he was the oldest and largest ot all Tic lg-uanas in that part of the jungle.

He was stretched his lull length along a high limb or a tree Irom where he could see much below,

The bidding was not the only thing duplicated at both uvbles - the play was also identical up to the seventh trick. Both Wcsis opened the heart king. Both dc- clarers ruifvicd this in dummy. and , then, perhaps being confident. i at ' East had no more hearts, they both drew ivhe iive rounds ol trumps necessary to exhaust East of that suit. I

Next, both declarers led and passed the club ducen - and at that point the two Easts took saparaic paths! At the first table. East must have thought that de- clarcr knew he had only one guard for his king! At any rate, this East won the trick-and after that, he and his partner were merely spec- tators.

At the second table East was not a ”glver-u.p.per." without 3 sign of hesitation or tear, he let Sout-h's club qvueen win. As he explain-.d ' later. this East realized that South certainly had the diamond act, and so it was surrendering ior East to win the first club load. The only chance for the defense, this East saw. was to coax South into tak- ing a second diui) finesse - and even then, East had In hope that South had started with only two clubs.

but where he was not likely to be noticed himsell. He was watching two boys. One out iihcm was Far- mer Brown's boy. The other was his friend. with whom he was spending the winter way down in the Land-of-always summer. They were standing at the chicken run, the snail wlrc-inclo.-ed yard in which were some small chickens. There were not as many chickcns as there should have been. Some who had taken them the boys didn't know. So tar they had found no signs from which they might guess who the thief was.

A Lizard in a. bright green cont had olimibcd a palm tree and dis- appeared among l'hc cocoanuls in the crown. it was the biggest Lizard that Farmer Brown's boy ever had seen. He said so. His friend had said that I Iihat was Young Iggy the Iguana, and that if he thought Yo-ung Iggy was big he should see Old Iggy, and Tommy had said that he would like to. They would have been sunprised boys had some one told thcm that at ihat very minute Old Iggy was watching them and at the same time watching the small chickens running about and grow- ing hungry as he watched.

He saw Young Iggy of the green coat run up a palm ircc and hide among tine cococinuls. He SRIW that the two boys were watching his young cousin. for that is what Young Iggy was, being a mem- ber ocf anovhcr branch 0! the Iguana family. Old Iggy's coat was brown. It never had been bright green. However he may have felt. when he was young, now there was no envy in him.- That coal. was too bright, altogeth- cr too bright. The wearer of It couldn't always be among green leaves. He couldn't stay in the treetops all the time.

It might not be much for looks, but it was for use. Having a coat like that was srpecialily use- ful when getting a. chicken din- ner. Old Iggy looked down at the chickens. If he didn't licl: his lips it wasn't because he didn't feel like it.

"You don't think that Iguana took the missing chickens, do you?" said Tommy. ,

The other shook his head. "In the first place he in too small. in the second place the Green Iguana doesn't eat chickens in so far as II know. it sticks to vege- table matter and insects. But big
