Mnreover. this unhappy outcome had to be contrasted with the three-

it was North's fault. that the bid- lding went beyond three not.ruirip. Obviously North reasoned that he might to show his spade support in that. suit-but. North ignored his response in sout.h's jump rebld of own distributional weakness! The North hand alene-and it. wax.

North had only a scattering of hon- I nrs. most of them minor ones. These mizhi. come in very handy at. no- trump. if only as auxiliary stoppers. but. they did not figure in be of substantial value at it spade can- traet. '

Thus. Ncrth should have bid three notrump over three spades. on the reasoning that if south accepted that contract-. his band would be suited to do it; and if South's hand iwiis not. miiable for notrump. he lwauld protect himself by going to four spades.

So Reddy and Mrs. Reddy hurried over to a big pasture overgrown uith bushes, vines. brlers and brambles. Among and through and under these Rabbits had cut little paths crossing and recrossing.

sure enough when they got to the big overgrown pasture the Rabbits loved so well. and where the Dog was barking so excitedly. just cut- sidn was the Dog's master waiting with a dreadful gun for the Rabbit in be driven out where it could be shot.

Reddy and Mrs. Raddy put. their heads t.ogei.her. They are a clever pair. those tim. They knew all about that big pasture. They knew every bramble-tangle and brier- patcb in it. and every Rabbit path leading into each. They knew just.

'which other tangle or brier-patch a

Rabbit would be most. likely in run for. when they saw where the hun- ter was waiting they looked at each other knowingly. The Rabbit might come out there. but. they didn't think so; They knew of two other places from either of which they were sure that Rabbit was much more likely to try to in get to an- other tangle of vines and brambles.

Roddy went. to one of these places and Mrs. Reddy went. to the other. That is they went. near enough to watch those places without being seen themselves yet near enough to catch the Rabbit before it could reach another tangle. In doing this they were very. very careful that the hunter with the dreadful gun should not see them. He didn't know they were about and they meant that; he shouldn't until too late in do anything about it.

It. seemed as if the Rabbit, miist have tried one of the little path: crossing and recrossing that. big patch of bushes and brambles. but there was no fooling that Dog. The scent was so fresh and strong that. his wonderful nose had no trouble at all in following it. His steady barking was broken only by a yelp or a squeal or a whine now r.nd Continued on page 14
