JPAGE TEN By Josephine Clnbartaon o3u3oo:Cwo-twortao-. T00 COOPERATIVE offhand, It would seem that south was responsible for the bad slam sontract in the following deal. but the fart is that he had a little too jump largely on the A-Q-10 01' much "cooperation" from his part- -spades. since the rest of his hand III. South dealer-I Both Sltl(”S vulnerable. Contract Bridge North to respond A not as an arti- ficial opening. North's one-heart I response was of course correct, and lsoutira one-spade rebid was cer- tainly ultra-conservative. North's jump to three clubs was acceptable. but when South, still temporizing, then bid only three rhearts. North went astray in bid- ding three spades. This was the crucial point in the bidding. North had based his previous three-club lwas not impressive. andrthereforc i he had, in bridge parlance. nothing ,left to show.

They were losing the water in their pond, and to lose that would bcl worse than losing their house.- I They had made that pond them- selves by building a dam across a brook, thus holding the water back. They had put a. lot of hnrd work into building that dam. They had built it with care, As the water backed up and backed up behind it. making the pond bigger and bigger, er. It was out in this pond that they had built their house, with just the walls and the roof above the water. Until ice covered the pond no bne could get to that house except by swimming. But when the water froze over any one could walk out to it on the ice. That is just what Glutton the Wolverine had done.

Now there was space enough for Paddy to Dill his whole head out of water without bumping it against the ice. This They searched all along the face of that dam under water. faster than it was coming in by wry of the brook. There was a leak in their dam. As soon as he dis- covered this, Paddy went all over the dam on the pond side, and he couldn't find a leak. He hurried home to the den in the bank or the brook to tell Mrs Paddy. "My dear," cried Paddy. "We have some real trouble this time." Mrs. Paddy sniffed. "Just as if we didn't have real trouble already." said she. "But this truly is real!' cried Paddy. "What is it now?" asked Mrs. Paddy. "Our pond is running away," replied Paddy. ”What do you mean 'running awayi?" Mrs. Paddy wanted to know. "Just what I say." replied Paddy. "It is running away, and if we don't stop it, there won't be any pond to stop." Mrs. Paddy looked startled. She could mean but one thing. that the water was running out of that pond IMWILDROOT CREAM OILCHARLIE hDUK NEW BOYSEEMS BRIGHT, MASON, BUT KEEP HIM OUT OF SIGHT UNTIL HF.
