when all is said and all is done Just, matching wits is often fun. -Reddy Fox

Everybody knows that Raddy Fox is one of the smartestol all the green Forest folk. There is no one smarter. Now smart folks are those who use their wits. There are times when Reddy has to live almost altogether by his wits. Sharp tools become dull with-use; it isn't so with wits. The more they are used, 1):: sharper tlley become. It has becn so with Reddy Fox ever since he was boin. The result is that even when times are hard, and sometimes they are very hard, Red- dy finds fun in using his wits.

Reddy's horns is in the Old Pasture on Farmer Brown's farm. Bow:-zer the Hound is one of Far- me: Brown's household, so in a way, the two are neighbors. They are not exactly friendly neighbors. Perhaps it would be nearer the irutn to say they are friendly enemies. Ever since both were young, Bowser has been chasing

muttered to himself. "I'll geg him this time. Yes, sir I'll get him this time." He always muttered that when he started on R.eddy's trail.

Across the Green Meadows into the Green Forest he followed the warm scent that Reddy purposely left. There was no trouble at all in following it, never once was he bothered. He ran easily. There was no need to. hurry. He wouldn't tire himself out doing that. In the Green Forest he came to the Crooked Lirttle Path. Reddy was following that path; it was still easy running.

"I wonder if he isn't going to try any of his tricks," thought Bowser.

It was right then that he lost the tantalizing scent left by Reddy's feet. He stopped baying. He sniffed all about. There was no scent, beyond that point. He sniffed on one side of the Crooked Little Path: no scent. He sniffed about on the other side of the Crooked Little Path; no scent. He whined'impat-

Reddy jumped to one of those stones.

Reddy, and Ready has been run- nlng away from Bowser.

Were it not for his wits. Reddy would have been caught long ago. Bowser's wits are sharp. W0. but he depends on his nose more than he depends on his wits. He has a wonderful nose, and he knows how to use it. with it he can follow scent so faint that his nose can pick up only a big of it here and a bit of it there. Bowser has patience: his patience and preseverance are as wonderful as that nose of his.'It is his nose and his patience and his perseverance that have made Bowser the most. famous Fox Hound in all the neighborhood where he lives.

This morning he was baying through the Green Forest on the trail of Reddy Fox. It was early and eool and Just the time for a good run. He knew whose trail he was following. He imevw it was the. trail of the Fox he had followed so many times and never been able to catch. He had followed Raddy so often that i. had become a sort of game, a game that so far Roddy had always won. When he had found Recidy's

all about. He saw a big stump. "So, that's it," thought Bowser. and Went stralrht over to that sLi.mp. He stood on his hind feet and put his fore feet against the edge of that stump, then leaned forward and sniffed. The scent of Recldy Fox filled his nose.

Bowser grinned. "The old trial: over again,” thought he, as he circled around that stump. In a moment he was oil" on that trail again, baying joyousiy.

Far ahead Reddy Fox also grinn- ed. He hadn't expected that trick would bother Bowser for long. The crooked Little Path wound down to where Laughing Brook runs merrily through the Green Foresi.It gurgles and laughs around several big stones there. Reddy Jumped to one of these stones. He Jumped to an- other. He jumped to a third. The water was very shallow around this stone. Roddy jumped down into the shallow water. He waded in it for a short distance stood for a mom- ent. listening to Borwse-rts voice drawing nearer, then made it long jump to the bank. "This will hold him for awhile." thought Reddy, and curled up for a. rest behind an old log.

This hand is so cards that some cautious players refuse to open the bidding with it. conservatism is questionable, but no one will deny that a one-spade opening carries some risk. In point count, accord- ing to the Culbertson method of suit-valuation, the hand is worth exactly 13 points -- 4 points for each ace, 2 for the queen. 1 point for the filth spade, and 2 points for

If partner raises to two spades, he shows a. count of from 8 to 10 points, and so, even if his raise was a maximum. hands have only an original vaiut- tion of 23 points. The opener. ac- cording to the Culbertson formula, revaiues his trump suit after the raise for an extra point, but even this does not bring him wilihin the game-range, and there- fore he passes. If, however. his hand were altered in this fashlon'

the revaluation after the raise would show an important increase .- en- ough to warrant a try for game. After the raise, opener counts 3 points for his long trumps (l point each, beginning with the fourth trump) and also adds an automa- tic 2 points for possession of a rais- ed six-card (or longer) suit.

In other point-count. methods, length values are counted indirect- ly and artificially -- that is. instead of ascribing the logical, practical value to an extra trump or two. the player adds points for single- tons, doubletons or voids. That this is a. highly artificial make-shift is proved by the simple fact that it is impossible to win a trick with a void - it is the trump which per- to forms this service.
