Over in the Green Forest near the root of the Great Mountain Spite the Marten was reeling well pleas- 'ed with himseli and the world in general. Folks with full stomachs oiten feel that way. spite had a lull stomach. He very seldom had one the cold winter days, so perhaps it is not to be wondered at that he was reeling good. very good indeed. He hadn't. even minded when Gray Fox had tried to-catch him. Spite had climbed a tree. Gray Fox had climbed the tree after him. You know the gray cousin or Roddy Fox is quite a climber. the only Fox bhat is. But Gray Rx was no match for the brown-coated climber he was after. spite fairly raced up the tree, then leaped over to the next tree. There he turned and grinned back at Gray Fox in a most provok- ing manner. He dared Gray Fox to

North was highly aggrieved. and said bitterly that South had de- liberatety ignored the warning im- plicit in the three-diamond shut- out made by North. ”Didn't 5'0" understand." he said, "that I WIS announcing a hand good Ior no- thing but a diamond contract?

So spite went on his way. jump- ing Irom tree to tree. until at last he came to one with 5 big limb. It seemed as it that tree had zxowii for the use or a. Marten who want- ed a sun bath. or perhaps a nap. Spite stretched out on that limb with his bushy tail partly around him. Lire seemed very, very good just then.

He had been there only a little while when Whisky Jack. the Can- ada Jay. own cousin to Sammy Jay of the blue coat. spied him.

”iiello, spite. I have missed you up on the Great Mountain. what are you doing way down here?" ask- ed Whisky Jack.

”iEiijoying myself," replied Spite.

"You sound as it you had had I good dinner," said Whisky Jack.

"I have." said Spite. He licked his lips and grinned.

"I don't suppose you left any tor a hungry neighbor," said Whisky Jack.

"Not a leather." said spite and grinned. This was.n't quite true he-

' cause he had left a lot of feathers.

but that was all.

"I saw a ocvusin of yours a short. time ago." said Whisky Jack. There was xi gleam of inischiet in his eyes,

but spite didn't see that.

"I met one myself. Probably you saw the same one," replied spite.

"Perhaps. but I doubt it." said Whisky Jack. "Who was it you saw?"

"Cousin shadow the weasel," re- plied spite.

"Oh. him!" exclaimed the Jay. "The cousin I saw was a good many times bigger than shadow."

spite pricked his cars. Just I wee bit of it worried look appeared in his eyes. "Are you sure it was a cousin of mine?" he asked.

"I! it wasn't I don't know who the members of the Weasel family are." retorted the Jay.

"Was it Biliy Mink?" asked spite.

Wlilsky shook his head. "It was a let bigger cousin than Billy Mink," said he.

"Don't tell me it was Pekan the Fisher!" cried spite. And now the slightly anxious look in his eyes had become a very worried look. Whisky Jack bobbed his head. "Right," said .he. "Youlve guessed it."

spite was up on his feet now. "Where is he?" he demanded, "ngll me where he is."

”How should I know? All I know is that I saw him ii little while ago. So I guess he isn't far away," 3-g. plied Whisky Jack.

Spite was anxiously looking this way and that way. That lovely din- ner he had had was spoiled. He looked to be just as scared Is Chat. terer the Redysquii-rel had been whpn he had first heard that Spite was in the neighborhood.

"Don't tell me that you are afraid of your own cousin." and Whisky Jack.
