Life is lived Just day by day. He lives it best who lives that way. -Old Mr. Toad. Little Toad had come all the way irom the Smiling Pool across the Green Meadows to Farmer Brown's garden.

th ho had over soon. He turn- ed and started to hip away. He was airaid. Yes. sir. Little Toad was afraid.

"Don't go." said a voice. and the owner oi those staring eyes and that big mouth came out irom un- der that board.

Thou eyes were no longer retor-

i ink. They were lovely eyes. They

were golden eyes. some day Little Toad would have eyes Just like them. It was Little Toad who was staring now. lie was staring at Old Mr. Toad, and Old Mr. Toad was his isther. neither oi them knew it. It would have made no diiisrence it they had known. "I wonder if I'll ever look like that," thought Little Toad. and he hoped he wouldn't. Old Mr. Toad was a' little bit h- mpbacked: his mouth was so big that it was as wide as his head: those lovely golden eyes were on top or his head; he was slightly bowlegged and his toes turned in. He was homely. It seemed to Little Toad that this big Toad was the home- llest person he had ever seen.

"Well, youns iellow. where did you come from?" said Old Mr. Toad.

"I don't know." said Little Toad in a small voice. "I just came from somewhere. but I don't know where."

Old Mr. Toad chuckled. It was a throaty sort of chuckle. Suddenly he leaned iorward and there was a flash oi pink irom his mouth. Then he settled back again and swsuowed. "Files are very good eatinl." said he. "Never let a fly get away it he is within reach of your tongue. What did you say you are doing up here in this garden?"

"It you please. I didn't say." ro-l plied Little Toad in a small voice. "I hsd thought I might live here. You see, I didn't know you are

living here."

"What difference does that make?" asked Old Mr. Toad gruiily.

"Do you mean you are willing that I should stay here?" asked Little Toad anxiously.

"Certainly," replied Old Mr. Toad. "The more Toads there are here the better. But you'll have to work. This is no place ior a lazy Toad."

"I'll workl" cried Little Toad. I'll work. What will I have to do?"

"Just est." replied his isther. "Just eat." ho chuckled.

monds on the iirst round to "build the hand up" tor a notrump con- tract - then changed his mind (or lost his nerve) and decided that he had better support South's hearts. Strangely enough. three anotrump would have been ironclad. whether played from the North or the South position, whereas the iour-heart contract required help irom the enemy, notably East.

West, who might have opened I diamond except for North's bid. led the spade queen. South W031 Ind took out West's trumps. East seized the opportunity to signal V130” ously with the seven and deuce oi clubs, and south. who knew his right-hand opponent to be in "honest” player. made a DIIVIIC decision not to le:d up in W9 club king it he could avoid it.

Declarer cashed :iummY'I IPIGG king and ruiied the spade six. then led one more trump. West discarded a diamond, dummy I club, and East a. spade. Declsrer now led a low diamond toward the jack. West put up the queen Ind exited with a. spade, but his saiety was short-lived. Declarer ruiied. cashed the diamond ace. and then led his last diamond. West. bwi on lead now could only return a. club and when he led the four-spot dec- lsrer ducim-l in dummy. As he had hoped from East's signal. the ace had to be played at this point. Ind the club king became the iuiiilling trick.

East should have made only nou- tral plays throughout. and should hsvs leit declarer to his own dev- loss. It ll not st all unlikely thlt. had he done so. south would have tried the straighiorward play at a club to the king in the hope that the see was on-side.
