There are different ways of falling. one who knows how to fall often can fall from a greater height without getting hurt them one who ,has not learned how to fall.

So now he .wunit afraid cf failing. but he was terribly afraid of being caught by the one behind him. It was Spite Lhe Marten.

He can outrun and outjtirnp the noisy rascal, and the only chance of escape that Chatterer has is to get into in hole txfo small for Spite to follow him. You see. Spite is considerably bigger than Chatter- er. Now although Chatterer didn't know it, there was another hungry enemy also following. This one was dressed all in black. He wasn't run- ning and lumping through the tree- tops. He was flying above them. This was one reason Chatter-er had not seen h.im. He was Croaker the Raven.

North admitted the truth of this comment. but attributed his I859? bidding to the fact that he had "shaded" his two-notrump response. After making that bid. he argued. he could nct afford to give South further encouragement by carrying the four-club bid. to five cluhs. Not being able to take back the two no- trump. North insisted that his actu- al preference for hearts at that point had been dictated by ordinary prudence: to play the hand at the lower contract. and to avoid show- ing a fit for either of sc'uth's suits. It is perfectly true that when a player has made a bad or doubtful response. he should not usually "confirm" his message by going full steam ahead on later rounds. but there are obvious limits to this holding-back process. also. Here was in case in which North had an overwhelming preferencn for S:-uth's second suit, and no conclusive ren- scn for fearing t:hat R club raise would result in an unmakable cor.- tract. After all, the two-notrmnp response had not been that bad! constant hunting in all kinds of cf them have a hard time in winter setting en;-ugh to eat. Croaker. hav- ing wings: can travel farther in a day than can spite. but this doesn't mean that he can live better. It takes a lot of food to feed as big a bird as Croaker.

He cannot hunt at night because he cannot see. spite can, and does. croaker had heard Chat- terer. too. and he had been iri- lowirtg Spite in the hope that he might have R chance to catch that- Squirrel himself, Cliattcrcr was a long distance from home. Now he wished he wasn't. He didn't know of a single place where he could feel safe until he reached the hollow in a certain ca-k'trce in which he was spending the winter. would he be able to get there in time? He was running so hard and jumping so rrantlcallv that already he was becoming tired. At last he was almost home. He could see the big oak tree ahead of him. But Spite the Marten was only one tree behind him. and he was coming faster than Chatterer could run. Almost overhead was croaker the Raven. Even now Chat- terer dd-n't lqicw that more than me enemy was there. if he had he probably would have been still more frightened if that were possible. It wouldn't have entered his head that two enemies could possibly be betur than one, He reached the last tree before the big oak. As he ran out on a limb to jump to the oak, Spite landed in that very same tree. Chat- terer hazlnlt really a chance. At least tha-t is the way it looked. And right then as Chatterer jumped to the home cak something happened, What was it? You guess. Croake: the Raven made a sudden swoop down to clutch Chatterer in his great claws just as Spite the Mar- ten jumped for that oak tree. Each got in the way of the other and Chatterer was safe. so it was that two enemies were better than one. Of ccnrse there was a great deal of hissing and snarllngland cronie- Ing on the part of Spite and the big black Raven. Each blamed the cthcr. but that always follows when two folks fall out. Down in his snug home in the hollow in the biz oak Chatturer pantcd for breath and hugged himself as he listened to the quarrel outside.
