Who do you suppose it is?" She was looking at another shock oi corn Just a little way lrom the one in which Whlteloot had made their new home. Moonlight was making the oornileld almost as 118m as by day. Some one was Slflndinz In the shadow cast by that shock oi corn. "It is one o! those folks We saw over here in the daylight," said Whlteloot. He meant a Dog. They had seen Bowser the Hound and 1121p the Terrier there one morn- g. “He looks like it but I don't Wk 1i 1S." replied Mrs. White- oo . Just then the one in the shadow rnoveri out into the moonlight. Roddy Fox! That is who it is!" exclaimed Whlteloot. "I saw him once over in the Green Forest. So g Contract Bridge By Josephine Culbertson oinrraoo SACRIFICE! “Sacrifice bidding" is even more important at match-point dupli- cate than at rubber bridge. Con- sider this deal: North dealer. Neither side vulnerable. Match-point duplicate. st several tables the bidding went: North Bast South Welt I Q Pass 1 Q Dblo. 2 Q Pass Pass 4 Q Pass Pass Pass All oi these Wests made four hearts, scoring 4.20 points, and U16 Norilh-South pairs soon learned that they had very bad match- polnt scores. because several other North-Souths had persisted to {our spades. They had not made that contract, because West, alter opening the heart king had shifted i0 the ace and six oi clubs, getting a third-round ruil, but the declar- ers had then guessed the position oi the spade queen (because oi the great heart length in West's hand) and therefore had. 80110 down only one trick. Those Souths who passed to four hearts cannot be said to have committed serious errors. 81MB the pattern oi their hand did not strongly indicate that s. sacrifice would pay. Nevertheless, a shrewd reading oi the previous bids should have persuaded South to bid iour spades. North's immediate spadfi raise over West's take-out double, virtually guaranteed at least tour- ciird support and when North did not double iour hearts, South had just enough, not to double, but to sacrifice at four spades. - It is true that South's we and f go dovm. but in a case o! this sort. Wsome credence must be placed in , when it is as impressive as West's! ‘having doubled one lpedi. than ‘leaped all the way to rem! W" - 10m. any encouragement from his 1W1 at. least nine sure tricks in king gave him reason to flhink that the four-heart contract might on opponent's bidding, especially pgirinoi‘, and therefore Nelilmlbly his own hand. From South's point THE MOON; you know what I have heard?" n1" | ~ whispered ma. white-l What?" aquealked Mrs. White- loot. Perhaps Roddy heard that squeak idr he suddenly looked their way. He took a iew steps, then chanEBd "his mind and sat down in the imoonlight. To those Mice he look- ed like a giant. Compared with ithem he was a giant. i "I have heard,” whispered White- iioot, "that he is very lond oi Mice. I have heard that our cousins who live on the Green Meadows are more alraid o! him than oi any one else, even Hooty the Owl. That is because he doesn't have to see them to catch them as l-Iooty does. He hunts with his nose as well as his eyes and ears. He can dig them out oi many hid- ing ulaces. He finds them with his nose and digs them out with his paws. They say he is the greatest oi Mouse hunters, even digging down through snow and catching them. They say-that he and Mrs. Reddy like a dinner oi Mice better than any other dinner and seldom bother other ioiks when they can catch plenty oi Mice. All I know is what I've heard." “I hope he won't come over here and ilnd us," whispered Mrs. Whitaioot. "How can he ilnd us i! we keep out oi sight? I'm not afraid," whispered Whiteioot. “Oi course not." agreed Mrs. Whiteioot. Just then Reddy got to his lest and walked straight toward them. There was no cause {or rear. Just the same they shivered a little. How handsome he wasi But what big sharp teeth he had! He came straight to the shock oi corn. He sniffed around the loot 0i it. Thoy could hear those sniils and they shook with each one. 'I‘hey could- n't help it. It was a dreadful sound. Then Roddy stood up on his hind ieet, put his black iront ieet on the shock, poked his black nose between the talks and snilied. This was worst o! all. He did it on three sides or the shock. Then Iteddy sat down in the lmoonllght. He grinned and they icould see his long white teeth. "I lthought as much." said he, talking ‘to no one in particular unless it lwas himself. "I thought that where lthere in so much corn there surely imust be some Mice. There are two in there. Probably they are living ‘there. I can't get them now but they won't stay in there all the time. I'll just drop around often on other nights and sooner or later I'll surprise them outside where I can cnich them. There {must be more Mice in the field. I'll look around." He walked over to another shock and began to snli! around that. "How big he is. And what dread- iul teeth! I guess there isn't any one who ls't afraid oi him," whis- pered Mrs. Whltcioot. "Look who is coming!" squeaked Whiteloot excltely. From back oi another shock of corn came one dressed in black and white. He was smaller than Roddy Fox but not as much small- er as he looked to be. That was because his legs were much short- er. Still he was enough smaller to look as ii he should be airald o! Raddy. But he wasn't. Anyway he didn't appear to be. He walked straight toward Raddy. Perhaps he didn't see him, although Raddy was standing right out in the bright moonlight. _ "It is Jimmy Skunk! What do you suppose is going to happen?" whispered Whiteioot.
