"What. is more I don't. want to see it, It. is enough for me to know where it is. I don't like them and I keep away from where they live." "It's it good home." said Peter. "is it?' said Mrs. Peter. She wasn't interested. ”Y0S. it is. It is a very good home i You may not like those Shrews. II don't myself. but they've made at good home. I'll say that much fort them.

East put up the eight. and South won with the ten. south now led the spade sevcn i and, when West followed suit with the four. put in dummy's nine. East would have saved something for his side by holding up the jack. but that hold-up would have giv- en dummy three spade tricks. and dcrlarer would have been on snfc' ground. with three spades. two hctirts, two (liunmiitls nnd two clubs. Actually, west took the trick and when he led his remaining spade. West's queen appeared, so now South could cash four spade tricks. Now for the errors previously re- forrcd to. Let's consider the defense first. West should have played the queen on dcclarcris first spade lead toward dummy! The queen w.s valuelcss if South had the jack (which was scarcely possible); and if East had the jack it was im- perative for West to prevent what actually occurred- declarerls pas- sing the first spade. Wcst rouid easily keep the diamond queen from becoming an entry. by hold- ing up the ace it declarer played the king. or by putting up the ace it rieclsrer played the diamond nln.-. South's error was less concrete mud obviously less costlyl. if he had taken the first trick with the dlrunond king. depending on the ac:-, to be in Wests hand. he would have retained a diamond rntry to dummy. Thcn. even if West used y his spade queen properly. the spade suit still could he used. AIR A 50915,-:l'STY-CATED lly Thornton W. Bupcss) shifted to hearts.

"Mr. and Mrs. Short-tall." re- plied Peter. He chuckled and ad- ded, "He was driven out and told to stay out. He didn't like it. but he went. Probably they have made up and he is back there by this time." Mrs. Peter had pricked up her ear. She was interested now. Yes. sir, she was interested. "So that's it." said she. Peter looked at her with a puzzled frown.. "So that's vavliat?" he asked.. "He lsntt back there and he won't be right away." declared Mrs. -Pc- ter quite as if she knew all about the matter. ”How do you know he isn't? And it he isn't, why isn't he?" Petcr demanded. . "She needs his room, not his company." replied Mrs. Peter... Peter looked at her and blinked. Then he scratched ii long our with a. long hind ioot. Doing that seems to help him think. But it didnt help him now. "You talk as if you know all about it," he grumbled, " I do," replied Mrs. Peter sweet- ly. "Mrs. Short-tail has a full house without him, or will have. He -would be in the way and ii. nuisance. Have you forgotten how every spring Polly Qhncis drives Johnny Chuck away for a while, and Mrs. Jimmy does the same thing to Jimmy Skunk?" i It was Peters turn to prick up his cars. "Babies!" he exclaimed "I dldnlt think of that. Do you sup- pose tiint's it?" ."Babics make a full house." re- plied Mrs. Peter. "Ami--" she stop- ped. "And what?" urged Peter. "Some fathers can he awliilly in the way some times,” replied Mrs. Peter. Peter looked at her; sharply. but she wasn't looking his way. course Iim only guessing," Mrs. Peter mildly.
