Jimmy Skunk stopped to listen.

"Listen to the silly thing." can. ilnued Jimmy. still talking to him- self. "That doesn't mean she has laid another egg. If she had it might be something to boast about. But she hasn't. It is the same egg. Any Hen can lay an egg. so what. is there to boast about? Birds can lay eggs and do. but I don't know a single one who boasts about it. They don't go about telling folks about it. Turtles lay eggs too. and they are mighty careful not to let anybody know when they do." At

rue SUIT-PREFERENCE SIGNAL .

Experts know what lesser pin;-I crs often refuse to learn: that the! more valuable a convention of bid-l

i aim; or play my be. the greater

care is required in its use. Take the "suit-preference signal", for example. This excellent device has actually been expensive to

use of itl

Essentially, the suit-preferences signal: When partner leads or fol- lows suit with a high card, he wants a shift to the high-ranking side suit (not trumps); whereas :1 low card from him command a shift to the low-ranking side suit.

The great trouble with most players is that they try to use lhis convention all the time! It doesn't always apply! Observe this case:

soTitii'aaiIo"i-?S3ota'nde'i 'vul-' nerable. North-South jopon score.

Dummy played low and East won with the queen. East cashed the heart ace. and then. realizing that his partner wanted to ruff. led an- other heart--the six-spot. West duly ruffed. and, having carefully

felt sure that his partner could have returned a lower heart than the six. hence jumped to the con- clusion that East wanted a return in the higher side suit. spades. so West led a spade. That was exact- ly what south needed to fulfill the contractl -

ft is obvious that East was help- less if his partner was going to read any heart East returned as o suit-preference signal. If East led the heart six after cashing the queen and ace. West would lead a spade to declarer's tenace. If East returned the heart three. West would exit with a diamond-the lower side suiti

Actually. West should not have l'ead "suit-preference" into East's forced return. but should have ex- lied safely with a trump! south might still have made the hand. but he would have had to do some

the thought of rtle eggs Jimmy licked his lips. e is very. very fond of Turtle eggs. very fond in- deed. And he is clever at finding them and digging them out. "rur- ties bury their eggs. you know.

"Only folks who can do things no others can do have any cause to boast, and even they don't do l.'. if they have any sense. No others can do what we skunks can do but we don't go around boasting about it. No. sir. we don't do that silly things. I-lens. I have half a mind to go over to that henyard. Probably I can't get in there if I do. and if I could I couldn't get that egg. But Robber the Rat or some of his tribe are sure to have heard that silly Hen and go look- lng for that egg. Hunting wasn't the best ever in the night and I haven't had so much to eat that it tender young Rat wouldn't. be we!- come." said Jimmy. still standing there Ill decided what to do.

Over in the Old Pasture Reddy Fox grinned as he heard that.)-len "Listen." said he to Mrs. Redd,-'. "To hear that Hen you might think no one ever had laid an egg be- fore. And every Hen in the hen- house has done the same thing over and over again. Somebody will get that egg and .ihat will serve her just right. Yes, sir. it will serve her just right."

"Perhaps she doesn't care." said Mrs. Reddy mildly. "She'll just lay another one. Who do you think will get that egg?"

"How should I know?" replied Reddy with it grin. "It wont be either of us. that's sure. Not that I wouldn't like the egg. but ue can't get in there. But there are those who perhaps can. If I were Robber the Rat I would try for that egg. and he probably will. I'm told that he and his tribe dole on eggs. And if Uncl Billy Possum hears that Hen he may try. The old rascal can climb that fence with no trouble at all. Once inside it wouldn't take him long to find that egg. And there" is Bobby Coon."

"He won't go over there in broad daylight. He isn't that foolish." declared Mrs. Roddy.

"Cut. out. cut. cut. cut. cuttin- cut! Cut, cut. cut. cut. cut. cutan- cutl" That was another Hen.

"if Bobby Coon hears that he will be over there trying to get in tonight as sure as my name is neddy Fox. Of all the silly folks I've ever known Hens are the silli- est." declared Reddy.

"Boasting is always silly. espec- ially when you've done nothing to boast about." said Mrs. Reddy.

"Cut, cut. cut. cut. cut, cutan- cutl Cut, cut. out. cut. cutaa-cutl" cried the silly Hen.
