—Peter Rabbit.

Peter Rabbit was klckinl up his long heels in the most loolish man- ner. That is it would have seemed foolish to many folks not under- standing Peter and his ways, It wasn't Ioclish to Mrs. Peter. She understands Peter. as of course she should. The (act is she kicks up her own heels now and then in 3 most unladylike manner.

“What makes you feel so good this morning?" she asked.

Peter kicked up his long heels again. “Listen!" he cried,

Mrs. Peter pricked_up her long ears. "I'm listening. What am } supposed to listen to?" said she.

‘Don't you hear it?" and pg"; and again kicked up his long heels.

1 “Don't I hear what?" asked Mrs. Peter a bit impatiently.

"Listen!" cried Peter again. -

North did not have the best possible double-raise at one spade. but. by the same token. no other lesponse would have been sub- stantially better. South’: three- notrump rebid, after this raisg was extremely questionable (to put it kindly!) but. as it happened. the more logical bid oi’ tour spades would not have given him a lay- down contrsci>—he would have had to guess well in handling the club Unit. \ Leading against the actual thres- notrurnp contract, West selected the diamond jack. South won with the queen. led a low spade to the queen, said returned a club. East acted shrewdly in quickly playing the chxb six. Naturally. south could not guess that East had both the king and queen. and he there- fore made the technically correct play of his own club nine.

West won with the club ten and. reeling sure that south would hold on on the next diamond lead. laid down the diamond king. South did indeed hold up his ace, and now West shifted to the ten 01 hearts. The Jack covered and East won with the queen. A heart return was decidedly called for at this point. but last allppsd—he led his last diamond! south won, cashed the spades. ending in dummy. then cashed the club ace and led an- other club. He thus established a second club trick {or himael! while retaining his heart stopper, and the contract was home.

It was. clearly iutile ior East to lead the third diamond. The situa- tion in that suit was marked. and

was a salt call and oh so sweet! “Phoe-be! Phoe-bel"

"Is that it? That's only Tommy Tit the Chickadee." said she. She sounded disappointed. He's been around all winter. I thought per- hap you heard Winsome Bluebird or Welcome Robin. telling us that Mistress Spring is on the way."

"Phoe-bel see me! See me!" call- ed Tommy Tit.

It. was a lovely morning and very siiu. Over in the Green lilo:-c:.t there were still banks at snow. but it was gone from the Green Mea- dows. There was soitness in the air and somehow it seemed as it that same softness was in Tommy Tit’s voice. Mrs. Peter sat. up the better to listen and at the same time to look at Tommy Tit. 01 course he must be somewhere in the dear Old Briar-patch, but h!s voice didn't tell just where. It didn't sound as it it came irom any place in particular but just was floating about in the air. Sounds sometimes do seem . like that you know, seeming close by when they are far away and far away when they are close by. “Dee. dee. dee! Phoe-be! Phoe- he!" suddenly Mrs. Peter kicked up her long heels in the some iunny manner Peter. had been kicking up his. Peter chuckled. “Why did you do that?" he asked.

"Becausul feel the same -way you do——happy." replied Mrs. Peter. "'I‘oxnmy Tit sounds so happy

feel happy. I don’t know why."

"I do." said Peter. "It is because Tommy Tit is so happy himseli. Happiness is catching. you know." Once more he kicked up his heels. Mrs, Peter nodded. "I wasn't. Xeeling especially happy until I listened to that little scamp call-W ing his Phoebe. All 0! a sudden it came to me what it means. Then how could I help but feel happy?" “What does it mean?" asked Peter. '

Just as it you don't know. It means that Mistress Spring isn't Isr away. You don't hear Tommy Tit calling his beloved Phoebe un- til he knows they will soon he house hunting. and that they won't do until Mistress spring really gets here." declared Mrs. Peter.

“Dee. dee. deel See me! see me!” cried a merry voice. and there was 1lttt.le Tommy Tit hanging head down from a twig above them and shopping his little black eyes at -them merrily. dee. dee. Chickadee!" Then beiore they could ask why he was so happy he lelt for the Old Orchard.

‘I wlsh—" said Peter‘ and stop-

ped.

“What do you wish?" asked Mrs.

er.

"I wish I could make other Iolkl as happy as that little scamp does." said Peter. "There is no surer way or finding happiness than in mak- ing other tolks happy." Peter kick- ed up his long heels. Mrs. Peter kicked up her long heels. And over in the Old Orchard Tdmmy .Tlt called. “Phoebe! See me! see me!"
