In a glade, which is an opening antong the trees of the Green Forest, Bugler the 111k had brcn fighting another of his own kind who was just a little bit bigger and had proved to be a little bit Silvllgtir. so that at last Bugler- could think of but one thing and that was getting away. The other llIlCI given him no chance to get fl-“Tly. crowding him so that he nld nt-t dare turn to run. It had been an exciting fight to ivntch and there had been many watchers, little ZIIILI big. Some were watching just for the excite- melli. A few were \\';|iching himgrlly and hopefully, some.

It was his bad luck that East did not ltavc the spade king! As it was» the spade queen took the first.‘ trick-and lifter that, to all in- tnitts and purposes, South's hand was "dead" except for the top diamonds. He laid down the ace and king o! diamonds and played n third round, but although this cleared the suit for him he Could never get in again to cash his three good diamonds, and s: a con- sequence he came out two tricks short of the contract, winning only two spades, two hearts, two diamonds and one club. If South had taken time out to study the situation before playing front either hand to the first ‘rick, ho probably would have seenthe virtue of playing the spade ace and saving hisown queen-jack. Obviously, the diamond suit of- fered greater trick potentiality than the heart suit, and by keep- ing a sure entry in spades, South could have set up and reached his diamonds very easily. in a case of this sort a declarer must decide which of his side suits he is going to establish before he docs anything else. because he must usually commit himself 1n- soiar as entries in his own hand and dummy are concerned. Thus, if South had felt. it desirable to establish hearts, his original spade ploy would have been correct, but since he obviously lhtendcd to g0 after the diamonds, his spade play was highly inconsistent. lBy Thornton W. , taln. It sent both of’ them to their illustrated by such n typical deal! West opened the six of spades, mg "What is the matter with them?

Yes, sir, both lost. They both lost because all in u moment each had become the prisoner of the other and both ,were the prisoners of pride. With heads lowered so that the points of their great antlers point- ed at each other they had come together head-on with a clash that rang far through the Green Forest and up the slopes of High Moun- knees. The some thing had happened before, but this time they remained on their knees, and that 'hadn't happened before. "I wonder why they don't get up," said Musky the Mountain Beaver to Mrs. Musky. , "Perhaps they are tired and Are resting." replied Mrs. Musky. For a few minutes they were quiet, panting for breath. Then they started struggling, but instead of pushing each other as they had done all through the fight they [were pulling, trying to pull apart and couldn't. Their Wonderful great antlers had become locked together. They were prisoners each 0f the other, and both of pride, You see, it vras pride in those great antlers, or horns as some people call them. that had led to the fight. Without those antlers they would not have thought. of fight- ing. All summer long those antlens had been growing on their hcnds, soft and very tender at first but at: long last growing hard, with many sharp points. Then each had become sure that he had not only the handsomest crmm in all the Great World hut the finest set. of fighting weapons. They had roam- ed about; looking for trouble, look- for a chance to show others what wonderful antlers they had and what fearless and mighty figh- ters they were. Now it was those very antlers of which they had been so proud that were locking them together, helpless to fight. helpless to rim away, helpless to get on their feet both at the same time. They had fought fiercely. their eym red with rage. Now they struggled just as fiercely, but, in their eyes was fright instead of rage. They didn't unticrstzilld what had happened. All they knew was that they could not get apart. Ir was a terrible feeling, the worst feeling either of them ever had had. It would have been icrribif? had they understood what had happened. They didn't. All they knew was that they had come to- gether head to head just as they had many times before.
