“I don't believe I know you." laid Peter Rabbit rather bluntly to s, stranger he had. ioun It work only s, little above his head on tho trunk of a dead spruce tree in the Green Forest. The “stranger stopped work to look down at Peter. "Don't you know whether or not you know mo?" he asked gravely, but with s. twinkle in his byes. - "1 know you are a Woodpecker.” sold Peter. "How do you know?" asked the ' other. "You look like one, like those Dunbar: o! the family whom I know, only diﬂerent," said Peter. The stranger chuckled. It was a good-natured chuckle. "1 look like one only I don't, so I must be one. Is that it?" he asked. Peter grinned. “Sort of." said he. "You brace with your tail, sort ot sit on it. as do all the Wood- pcckers and no others that I know You move’ about on the tree and you hammer with that stout bill o! yOill‘ in regular Woodpecker fashion. But you dress differently When I first saw you at a distance I thought you were your Cousin Ilairy; you are about his size. Then I missed the red cap and knew you] were not he." i “Don't you like my yellow cop as well as you do Cousin I-Ialry’s red one?" asked the other. "No.” replied Peter honestly. "It is preliy but not 8a pretty. You haven‘t told me your name." "You haven't asked me.“ said the stranger. I

"What is it?" Peter promptly asked. “Ladticr»bnck." was the equally

,prompi response. "I |Laddoi~back of i family,

That's funny name.“ said Peter "How in the \\’0rirl did you ever got such a name as that."

"I suppose it has sunctliing lo do with my back," replied Ladder back.

It was a good guess. a very good guess. The whole length of his back was a stripe of white crossed by bars of black. or 0,! black crcssed by ivhitr- bars, whichever you please. It was as if lac carried a little black and white ladder on his back. But oi’ course Peter knew nothing about ladders. Neither did Ladderback for that matter.

"Names are funny things. Same- iimcx they don't mean much, Why do they (‘all you Pctrr?“ asked the Woodpecker. -

"Don't ask me. I don't know. They just do. I have heard that a woman drew pictures of o Rabbit she kntwhnd called h‘m Peter. She wrote a story about lllm being In Mr. hIcGi-cgoi-‘s garden. I don't know of any Mr. Gregor’; garden only Farmer Brown's garden, but everybody calls me Peter Rabbit just the same.

“I know you are s Woodpecker," said Peter

Whsth in a name unﬂlyf" ﬂ- plied Peter, '

“A great deal when it is a good name." said Ladder-back, prepar- ing to go to work again.

Just then Peter remembered something. "Hi!" he cried. "Did you have an accident?" ‘

“Me have an accident! Not that I know of. Why do you ask?" re- illicd Ladder-back, looking puzzled.

“I don't see but three toes on either of your feet. There should be four. How did you lose those two toes? And how do you manage

get along without than?" re-

to i plied Peter.

"I didn't lose two toes. I never have had but three toes on n foot. What is more, I don't want but three. What would I do wiih '1") extra. toes, one on each foot? Tell

me that, Peter Rabbit," rc.or.ed Ladder-Back. Oi’ course Peter couldnu, I

thought all birds have four toes on each toot." replied Peter. That wasn't much of an answer I think you will ggféﬂ. '

One of the most dangerous oi all bidding practices is to show two wreak live card suits when partner has already announced that h‘: strength is largely in the other suits. A catastrophe descended upon NortlrSouth in today's deal because South ignored the danger signs.

when he responded originally with a two-ovsr-one diamond bid. Actually, his honortriek holding did not warrant even this response, and thus his following three-club bid over North's vwo hearts was littlo short or! frightful. North g naturally supposed that South had about three times as good a hand as he actually had, and therefore tho thres-notrump bid seemed conservative, it anything.

Peculiarly v enough, although three notrump could have- been "murdered", East did not have a ms double of that contract. It South had really had his two bids, East might have been in the acute danger of being redoublerl. However, East "knew” his lett-hand op- ponent and acted accordingly. Later he was very glad that he had not lost his nerve_!

West had the foresight to open the diamond queen. The ace was put up and declarer led g club to his own king. "West won and took out dummy’: last trump-and sl- tm- that south was not in a very good position.
