THE FIABSOME NOSES Nosy folk may learn too much. Always keep an eye on such. -Old Mother Nature. Little Miss Meadow Mouse, alone out in the Great World, had learned one oi the first and most important things o. Mouse who would live long must learn. 1t was that keen far-seeing eyes are always watching for careless small folks to be caught and eaten by hungry big folks. So she was very careful to keep under cover. She lPll. that as long as she could kggp from being seen she was quite safe; that it she wa; unseen 511g had little to worry about. Now Johnny Chuck said that noses were more to be feared than eyes. It was upsetting, very upsetting, indeed. Johnny was sitting on his door- step. He was very lat. very sleepy Md lust about to go down to his In"! bed deep in the ground to sleep all winter. He should have Sone 1on8 before. For some rea- son. perhaps just because he had not felt sleepy, he was up much later in the season than usual. He had told his small visitor that noses were more to be feared than eyes because they were harder to hide from. Little Miss Meadow Mouse limmht this over, and the more she thought about it the more puz- zled‘ she became. What could a nose have to do with her safety? She knew why she should hide from eyes, but what had noses to do with hiding?

"What is it you d n't see?” asked Johnny Chuck in a sleepy voice she squeaked. All Mice have squeaky voices. "What is 1t you don't see?" asked Johnny Chuck in a sleepy voice. He yawned. "What noses have to do ivith hiding." squeaked the puzzled young Mouse. Johnny Chuck looked down at lie-r piiyinglyc “You poor little thing." said he. "I'm not a poor little tiling!" squeaked his small caller indig— naniiy. "Yes. you are," retorted Johnny "Any one as small as you who does not know enough to be afraid of roses is to be pitied. But you won't bg pitied long." “What do you mean by that?" demanded hliss Mouse. “You won't be around replied Johnny Chuck. “Why won't I be around?" cried the young Mouse, beginning to look scared. "Because of milling noses." re- torted Johnny Chick. "One of them will be sure to find you, and that will be just too bad." Whose nose will find me?’ squeaked frightened Miss Mouse. "I don't know." replied Johnny Chuck. "What difference will it make whose nose finds you?

East, o! course, would have to return a club to the A-Q. or give declare: a ruff- long." g and-discard. West. however, was extremely alert, and. anticipating the course of play, craflly put up the club jack on South's lead toward dummy! Tfhat mined the throw-in play. and South was down one. having to lose two clab tricks. South's plan was fairly good, but not as mod as it should have been. This is the way he should have played the hand: Take the spade acc, draw trumps. cash the spade king and ruff the last spade. Cash the diamond ace, ruff the diamond seven in dummy. then return to the closed hand with a trump and lead the diamond jack. 0f course. if West could cover this card, dummy would ruff and South would then i-e-enier his own hand with a trump to try the club play. However, with West not covering the diamond Jack, it would be elementary to let that card ride. discarding dummy's club eight and thus insuring a club return to the ace-queen or another return that would afford a rufi-and-dlscard.
