slam at diamonds would have de- pended only on a favorable posi- tion of the diamond king or the olub queen. The real virtue. how- ever. of at four-diamond bid by North, over three notrump, was that South could then reasonably bid only live diamonds -- he had done his duty on the previous gound - and that North, short of I. slam, could lose both the diamond king and the club queen and still get home.

her raced Flip the Terrier. For once in his life Flip was too ex- cited to bark. Or pebape he need- ed all his breath. for little Mrs. Peter really could run. What was Flip chasing her for? For fun. It wasn't fun for her, but it was fun for him. It would be still more fun to catch her and shake her to death. isn't it curious what; some Iolks vhink is fun?

Peter was sure that Mrs. Peter was crazy. You see she had lett the sale, dear Old Briar-Patch and had gone to meet. Flip the Terrier right out on the open Green Meadows. That seemed to Peter a crazy thing to do, just about the craziest thing he had ever seen done. It was something that he wouldn't have dared do himself, yet little Mrs. Peter had done it and she is even more timid than is he. So Peter was sure that sire was really crazy.

He. was sitting up very straight and -his eyes were popping right out of his head as he watched that race for life. There was nothing he could do to help Mrs. Peter. Her white tail bobbed up and down, up and down, up and down in the green grass, and right behind it ran Flip the Tar- rier so close to ,her that some- times Peter closed his eyes that he might not see the dreacilul thing he was sure was going to happen.

But it never did happen. Al- ways just at the very instant it seemed as if Flip's teeth would close on Mrs. Peter she dodged. She dodged so suddenly that or- ten Flip ran way past before he could stop himself and turn That gave Mrs. Peter a little time to gain and get. ahead. But. always in a moment or two, Flip was at her heels again. It cer-

South overlooked a good oppor- tunity. The right line was to cash both top clubs immediately, on the fair chance that the queen would fall. Actually. of course, it would have fallen, but if this break did not materialize, the diamond suit. via a finesse, was still 5 strong possibility.

tainly didllook as if Mrs. Peter was running her last race. Peter's heart was in his nioulh. Anyway, he felt as if it was. Oi course it wasn't really because hearts have to stay right where they are. But. that is the way it felt. And why in the world didn't she come straight for the Briar- path? She must be crazy, for she was not coming this way at ail but seemed to be trying to get to the Old Pasture and that was a long wav oil. Why was she doing il'.' Peter couldn't think of

Now Pe r was judging with- Nothlnvg is more toolish then to judge a thin! without knowing all the facts. You see, Mrs. Peter had a sec- rct. It was a. real secret. Real secrets seldom can be shared with even one other person. This secret was too precious to V share even with Peter. The truth is, Mrs. Peter didn't trust Peter. I! he knew that secret he would try to keep it, but he would be almost certain not to keep it. So Mrs. Peter, had kept that secret all tcf herself. It goes to show what a wise little person aha is.

What was that secret? Haven't you guessed? Out a little way from the dear old Brier-patch. hidden in the grass, was I nur- sery and in what nursery, under a blanket oi solt tur that Mother had pulled from her own coat, were six babies, six of the cutest babies in all the Great World. Whose babies were they? Haven't you guessed? They were Mrs. Pter's babies and Peter's. But he know anything about them.

It. had looked like a crazy thing for Mrs. Peter to go to meet: Flip the Terrier, but it wasnlt as
