So every night Old Men Coy- ote visited the little pond deep in the Green Forest. He kept. where the Black Shadows were blackest. He could get quite near without danger of heiniz seen. for Beaver eyes are not the best of eyes. He would find In good hiding place and from there watch all that was going on around that little pond.

For it long time he didn't see an tipportunity. It wouldnlt do to try and fail. Then Paddy and the others would be more watchful than ever. If only one 0! these Beavers would go way back from the water he miitht have a chance. He must get between the water and the one he was tryiiitg to patch. More and more he rea- jlized this.

But Old Man Coyote didn't take her advice. Sometimes when' ihe ihOll2i'll how good a Beaver-i idlnYIPT would taste, it drove him almost. crazy. But he was too smart. to let desire. to let appetite.ll lead him to act too quickly and, unwisely. He just kept mi watch-l int: and lcarnziig mid plaiitiiiiiz. Ht-l was sure that with patzeiice hzs opportuntv would come.

One by one. the. trecs nearest; the water were cut down and cut. up. Old Man Ctiiiile dz.-corned .ili:tt only one kind of t:-oi-.5 iias; be.:iiz t-i;t: niiiy aspen trees were; being cut. Some or these grew in? among other kinds or trees. lti must be that aspen bark was their favorite food. You see Oidl Man Coyote liad lonz ago found :Oltt- that it is the hark of the 'troes they cut that the Beaver folk eat.

Most of the aspen trees near. .the pond had grown in small. !g'l'Ollp5. Back of these were s te.v' Iscatteret-', among other small trees. Old Man Coyote lay in wait night; iaiter night near one of these. Hel Wye; sure that when the others: inearer the water had been cutl 'this would be next. It was far enough hark from the water tori :h:m to have a i-ham-1' to not be- itiiceii the water and the Beaverl ;at. work on that tree. i i "lill get. one of those Beaversi or my name isn't Old Man Coy- ote," he muttered.

in each package of

takeout. and handicapped as he was by the inability to !ind out how many aces South held. North might have proceeded with great- er caution on the next. round. hid- ding only five spades. Even that contract tit South accepted itt ii-iiizht have met defeat it East had held the Ace queen of clubs and West the ace of hearts.

All this. however, :5 academic the fact was that North-South dztl veigv well! West. on opening

lead, decided to hold on to his. club tenace, and led a trump. Dec- ltirer drew trumps. cashed the (l.anioiid acc, dlSCOYL'l'8d boili iiiibs on d-i.iiim,i"s diamonds, and than could well afford to concede the heart ace!

The very fact that West (pre- sumably) knew the opponents were not using an ace-locating convention and so might have the slain with only two aces. should have influenced him to lead the ace of clubs - or at any rate to

open I heart, the. other unbid suit. In the latter event. East might have had the inspiration

to return a club.

While on the subject, it. might be good idea to point out that the question of what aszainat. ti slam contract depends in ii large extent on the quality of one's opponents. It is not ai. ways wise to lay down an rice, but it the opponents are 0pLjmjg- tic bidders. ace leads are very much in order!
