to stay in Yapville as long as any Prairie Dogs were there.

Getting breakfast was an easy matter, for they live chiefly on ‘grass, and it was all around them. I50 they ate breakfast. a little more ihurrlediy than ususl perhaps. but no less heartily. And they didn't ‘forget. for an instant to watch for dancer. While Yap Yap was cut- ‘ting a mouthful Mrs. Yap Yap was sitting up watching, and while she was getting a mouthful he was sit- ting up watching.

Breakfast eaten, they moved on in the same careful, watchful way as on the day before. They kept to the tallest grass and weeds as much (as possible. ‘There they were least {likely to he seen by hungry hunters |on the ground or in the air. If

they saw a speck in the sky they isquetted close to the ground and watched it until they were sure it ,was not one of the Eagle or Hawk lfolk. 1t wasn't e0 easy to watch

West said later that he had con- sidered sacrificing at the five- ievei, but felt that he might push the enemy to a makable slam.

Actually, a club lead would have beaten even the five-heart oon-

l tract. but West was not a fortune- teller, and opened the spade K1118- South won with the blank ace. drew two rounds of trumps. then, since he could discard only one club on dummy's diamonds, led a club to- ward the king. South felt sure that the club ace would be in West's hand, “for his bid." The confidence was misplaced, however and three clubs were quickly col- lected by the defenders. Down onei if South had had to depend on West's holding the club ace his play to the king would have been obvious, but that was not the case! Consider this line of play:

After drawing trumps. South ruff-s dummy's remaining spade. then cashes the top diamonds. He sees West "fall" on the third round Now it is simplicity itself to lead dummy's last diamond and give the trick to East. discarding sn- oiher club from the closed hand. This is the opponents’ first trick —and what can East do to win two more? If he returns a spade or a diamond, declarer gets rid of still another club while nifflng in dum- my; if East returns a club. whether he or West had the ace, dummy's club king is established. "

"What are you doing hero all alone?" demanded Jack Rabbit

for enemies on the ground, for even when sitting up they couldn't see far over the tall grass and plants.

Once they were frightened al- most out of their wits as‘ they started to creep into a clump of tall plant-s. Something much big- ger than themselves leaped out on the other side, giving them such a fright that for a moment they couldn't move. Then they saw that it was Peter Rabbit's cousin. Jack Rabbit. He had been dozing there and was as startled as were they.

Seeing who had startled him so. Jack Rabbit stopped. He wasn't afraid of a couple of Prairie Dogs, nor were they afraid of him.

"Such ears!" exclaimed Mrs. Yap Yap. "How would you like to have such long ears as those?"

"Wouldn't 1 look funny?" chuckled Yap Yap. "I guess that for his size Jack Rabbit has the longest, biggest ears of any one around."

It was a good guess. Jack's whole body, which was two feet long, was only three times as long as those big ears he was twisting and turning to catch every tiny sound. Peter Rabbit's ears would look small indeed beside those of his big cousin. Even those o! Peter's other cousin, Jumper the Hare, would no longer seem long. You know Jumper is often called Snowshoe Rabbit. although he is a Hare, not a Rabbit. It is the same way with Jack Rabbit. He, too. 1s a Hare, not a Rabbit. But every- body calls him Jack Rabbit.

"What are you two doing here alone?" demanded Jack Rabbit.

"We are looking for a. place to make a new home," explained Yap Yap. Then he told why.

"So that black-footed killer has found your village. That is bad, just too bad," said Peter's big cousin. "You did well to get away from there. I don't want Black- foot the Ferret for a neighbor."

"With such long legs as yours I wouldn't be afraid of him," said Yap Yap.

"I'm not if I see him first, but if he were In the neighborhood I wouldn't be sure of seeing him first A fellow has to sleep. you know. If Blackfoot had been in your place Just now he might have caught me." Jack Rabbit sat up to look this way and that, and his big ears twisted and turned. They can hear what his eyes can- not see. He looked long in one di- rection. "A Coyote is coming this way." taid he.

At this the two homeless ones were in despair. What could they do? Where could they go?

"Don't worry." laid Jack Rab- bit. "I'll lead him away. He is young and won't know any better than to chase me. I feel like a good run this morning. Stay where you are and lie low." He started off with easy hops as if to meet the young Coyote. would he really lead him away?
