Folks who lose their tempers that they say things and do things without really knowing what they are say- ing or doing. They have no corn- mand oi themselves and that is a very bad state to be in, It usually leads to trouble ior seli and ior other iolks. Buster Bear had lost his temper and chased Chaiterer the Red Squirrel up a tree with no chance st all oi catching him. Beiore he could get down Jimmy Skunk hed come along and had kept Buster up there a long time. He was afraid oi Jimmy's unpleasant lit- tle scent gun. When at long last Jimmy went stray, Prickly Porky the Porcupine came along and be- iore Buster could scramble down climbed part Way up that very tree and made himseii comiort- able there. Because oi the thous- and little spears he always carries Buster didn't dare try to pass him. He had to stay up in that tree until Prickly Porky moved on, and it wss a long time before he did.’ that. By the time the way was clear and Buster was back on the ground his temper was gone com- pletely. He was just. plain mad. so mad that he was quilo beside him- self, as a person is said in be when so angry they hardly know what they are doing. He started oii down the Crooked Little Path growling angrily. Presently along came a Merry isittle Breeze bring- ing many scents. Our noses, yours and mine, wouldn't have smelled them at all. but Buster's nose did. He stopped growling. He held his nose high. While he smelled the different scents the Merry Little Breeze was carrying he listened. His ears caught the faintest 0i iaint sounds. These and what he learned irom his nose told him that ahead oi hlm were a num- ber o! Green Forest iolks, and he knew what they were doing just as ii he could see them. "Nuts!" m u t te r e d Buster, "Beechnutsl There is. s. rlutting party. I smell Deer and Beer and others. By the time they get through there won't be s nut leit. I want. those beechnuts myseli.

He had shown He shutiledflon down the ‘Crooked Iiitile Path the Green Forest. Those nuts are mine. II any are leit when I am through those who can iind them will be welcome to them." He shuttled on down the Crook- ed Little Path. He was very care- iul to walk soitly, He was no longer growling. He wanted to see that nutting party beiore his pres- ence was suspected. He wanted to give everybody a surprise and give them a irlght that would put all oi them i0 flight. At last he reached a place where he could see what was going on, and who was there. Mrs. Bear and the cubs were there. i\'Ir.<. Bear was the only one who might show iight and he wasn't aiiaid oi her because he was bigger. Llshtioot the Deer was there. He had beautiiul new antlers with many sharp points, but there was no danger from him. l-Ic wouldn't. tight. Mrs. Lightioot and her twins were. there. They would take to their eels at sight oi him. Thun- deter the Grouse, Mrs. Grouse and several young Grouse, now fully grown. were running about greed- ily picking up the sweet little three-cornered nuts hiding under the leaves. All the-Squirrel cousins, Chatterer the Red Squirrel and NLrs, Chstterer, Happy Jack the Gray Squirrel and Mrs. Happy Jlilk. Rlliiy Ind Mrs. Rusty the Fox Squirrels, and even Striped Chipmunk, were working as only the Squirrel iolk can. and all the time quarreling and scolding each other and everybody else. Buster watched ior a iew min- Somehow the sight oi that happy party made hln. angrler than ever. With an ugly sound that was hall’ snarl and halt growl he suddenly rushed into the middle oi that party. Every one there except Mrs. Bear took to his or her heels or wings. The cubs climbed g tree. Mrs.. Bear didn't run. She backed oi’! a little way, then stopped. For s moment it looked as li she would tight. Then, growling angrily, she t/uurned and slowly shuttled to the toot oi the tree in which the cubs were. There she sat up to watch Buster and snarl at him.

South knew that he was running a risk when he went out (or the grand slam, but he could not resist the temptation. Incident- ally, West was a little inconsistent. when he kept “saving" all the way up to six spades and then suddenly decided that he would let the opponents play seven hearts! Hopinig to strike a weak poiint. West opened the diamond jack. South won, led the heart nine to dummy's ten, and played the spade queen through East, who. oi course, covered with the king. South nailed with an honor, then led the trump iive to dummy's seven, and sent the spade jack through East. Nat- urally, East covered with the ace, since he did not want to see declarer discard on the trick! Smith ruiied and ran oi! every one 0t his trumps, until he was reduced to only the 5-4 oi diamonds discarding on the lost trump, West had the spade ien and the J-ih-8-6 oi clubs, but the necessity to reduce to tour cards was more than he could handle! Dummy. with the spade eight and the orgiinal iour clubs back oi lvcst, would kéep the spade eight ii West. gave up the ten, or keep all the clubs ii West . gave up his stopper. Whichever West chose. South was assured oi all the tricks. UPI ioAvrrvvloosloolw A MAN‘ wm-l 1 . MY ROMANTIC Mme canto co scum-rune AN meeiaiusimooe ~ 0F The MAYOR WITH ‘Ti-NS PI¢TDRH .
