If we all agreed about everything. 1'ife'wnuld be very dull and uninteresting. it is dis- agreement that sharpens wits. Dis- agreement arises from the fact that everybody is at least a little different from everybody else. It is disagreement that makes folks think. and from it very often spr- ings some of the very best things of life. The mouse family is a very big family.

On the Green Meadows live Danny and Nanny Mesdowmouse. They have even lived in the dear Old Briar-patch. You see they do not make their home in the same place ii the time. And there is ne 0 her whom Peter has met. bill does not know as well as he knows some of the others. This is Nimblehecls the Jumping Mouse. who also live: on the Green Men- dnws or sometimes along the edge of the Green Forest. Peter was i-aiiiinded of Nimble- licr-is when he met Danny Mea- dnwmouse jusl outside the dear Old Brtar-patch. He hadn't seen Nimbleheels since early in the fall. and it. was now the edge of win- ler. "Where is your cousin Nim- bleheels?" he asked Danny Mes- downiduse. ”How should I know?" squeak- ed Danny. "I haven't seen him since last slimmer. Probably he is asleep. I don't understand Cousin Nimbleheela." "What is it you don't under- stand?" asked Peter wonderingly. "I don't understand why he is so different tirom the rest of the family." replied Danny in his high squeaky voice. "is he?" asked Peter. "He certainly is." rPpilEd Danny. must. have at least two aces. It is likely that south never even thought about the possibility that North might have a. strong dis- like of notrump and renson to feel that game could be made in South's first-bid suit! Even though West opened the 593GB am and dummy ruffed, South soon had to acknowledge defeat - he had to concede . heart and a trump. North's dilemma is pointed up by the fact that three notriimp. if he had left the cbntracl. there, would have been severely de- feated. and that his insistence on the right contract. clubs, was 3150 futile because of South's short- sighledness. Apparently. there was "0 Way by which North could land Keep Regular ;-.... course he is the best. jumper in the family, others who are pretty good jum- pens. No, it. isn't his jumping that makes him different; it is the way he sleeps." Peter's eyes opened a little wid- er. "Does he sleep any different from the rest of you?" he asked. "1 should say he. does." squea- ked Danny. "The rest of us sleep like other folks. for A little while when we are sleepy. We take naps just as you do. But not cousin Nimbleheels. No, sir, not cousin Nlmbleheels. He is like Johnny Chuck." Peter blinked. mean like Johnny asked. "He sleeps all winter." squea- ked Danny. ”How he does it and why he does it. I don't know. He is the only member of the family that does it. He is the only nne who can. So you see he is dif- ferent from the rest of us. He is one of the longut sleepers I know ”Whai do you Chuck?" he ”Do you mean in the way he can jump?" Peter wanted. to know. "No," squeaked Danny. "Of but there are some :'FHE GUARDIAN.

"Cousin Nimbleheels goes to sleep before Johnny Chuck does. He goes toisleep right in the mid- dle of autumn. and doesn't, wukg up until way late in the spring. I wouldn't sleep like that for any- thing. Just think of all the fun he misses." ."But don't forget all the hard ""195 he mi-tses too." said Peter. "Where is he sleeping?"
