"What new trick?" asked his father, pretending not to know what was meant. "The one on the stone well“.'.~ex- plained Reddy Junior. ' “Oh, that!" exclaimed Roddy shaking his head. "The stone wall trick isn't new. It is almost as old as the water trick. It is one that all Foxes are supposed to know. Even some smart Dogs know it." “Oh," said the young Fox in s tone of disappointment. "I thought it was a new trick." "If you live long, my son. you will find out that usually the old tricks are the best tricks. All de- pends on the way they are done. I fooled that Dog's nose by means of the old wall. But had he been near enough to see me do it he wouldn't have been fooled at gll. The very beet nose alone may be fooled. So may the best eyes alone But to fool nose and eyes at the same time is something e‘se. Always remember that a Dog has both nose and eyes, and while you are trying to fool one never forget the other." "I could see you curled up in scene bushes and you were much farther from me than from that Dog. He must have been stupid not to see you." declared Raddy Junior. His father shook his head. "He was smelling for me, not looking for me. Folks seldom see what they are not looking for. Always keep that in mind." said he. "I guess it would be pretty hard to‘ fool a Dog’: nose and eyes to- gether." ventured the young fox. “It can be done but sometimes it takes what is called nerve. Which is really nothing but cour- age and confidence. The next thud a Dog comes around. I will show you a way to do it.” replied his father. Not long alter this another Dog crme nosing about. Dellherately Roddy crossed in front of him in full view and the chase began. It didn‘t take Reddy long to get out of the Dog's sight unong the bushes, but the scent. was .easy to follow. Reddry Junior went to his favorite lookout, After a while running along a distant road. He slipped under some bars into a field. Along one side of the field was a stone wall. The Young Fox expected to see hlm Jump up on this. Reddy didn't He ran the length of the field beside the wall, but a little out from it.

There are, hoyvever, several exceptions to this principle Today's deal port-vars om: type of exception. al possible, but the defenders also were on the alert and the outcome was an silo-point penalty. Offhand, it might appear‘ that South alone was responsible for this rather considerable loss. since he “did all the bidding. and North merely gave a preference for South's first - hid, obviously longer heart suit." Such a view, however, ignores the practical side of bridge for the theoretical. lt is true that. the “preference bidder" assumes no real responsib- ility inasmuch as his hid does not announce real strength-hut there is s limit to nil things. Granting that south had to allow for a weaklsh hand opposite him, how was he to know that. he was going to find a virtual Yarbcroirg? From South's point of view. a couple of mere queens in the dummy, if fortunately placed, would give him a splendid play -for game and the possible posses- slon of such cards by North cer- tainly would not have induced hhn to make an encouraging call. With a hand ‘as miserable es North's the proper philosophy is to accept s second-best contract. insofar as the trump suit is con- Corned, in order to hold the bid- ding down to the loxvest possible level.
