People who live on mountains. and others \vho spend much time climbing mountains, are called Mountaineers. On the high Moun- tains of the Far West live the most. famous mountaineers in Am- erica. They are Billy and Nanny Surefoot the Mountain Goats with others of their kind, and Mr. and Mrs. Bighorn the Mountain Sheep and others of their kind. While they are cousins, belong- ing to the same family, and while they live in the same rocky, desolate upper parts of the High Mountains and love it. the goats and the Sheep are not at all alike save in one matter—sure-footcd- ness. Both have suction cups. so to speak, on their feet. When they irouunv wuusn BUYING LIVE FOWL 8r CHICKEN FOR ll. S. A. MARKET Contact Us For Prices E. J. McDOUGALL. Vernon DOWN .1. A law (Heb.

Billy and Nanny Surefoot look likc—Goats. You never would mis- take them. But Bighorn and his family do not look as much like ‘the Sheep you and I know as Billy and Nanny look like the Goats with which We are familiar. This is funny too because they are not true Goals but a kind of Antelope. I always think of Sheep us wearing wooly coats, coats that are very, very wooly. Bighorn's I coat isn't wooly. ills coat is much like that of Llghtfoot the Deer |and others of the Deer family. It iis of hair instead of wool. Like 'so many others who llvewhere ‘winters are cold he wears two suits. a suit otlunderwear of fine fur to keep him warm, and over this an outside thick coat of hair that sheds the water in wet wea- ther. Little Kid Surefoot was gazing pop-eyed at Cousin Bighorn. see- ing him for the first time in his very short life. Mother had called him cousin. But it was hard to believe for cousins could hardly look less alike. However. belong- ing to the same family must make them cousins. It is a rather large family of which the members of no two branches look much alike. Thundcrhoof the Bison, usually called Buffalo, is of the same family. Farmer Brown's Cows are members too. ~ Little Kid Surefoot. staring at the great curved horns of Cousin Bighorn and then looking at the smail,rnearly straight black horns on his father's head which now looked smaller than they really were, had wished he were a Sheep. Of course lt was a very foolish wish. Billy Surefoot told . him so. It always is foolish to wish that you are what you are not. and never can be. "Why do you wish you were a Sheep?" nskecl Nanny. looking down fondly at her small son.

West opened the club king, and when East played the eight, laid down the club ace. This was an unfortunate defense, because an immediate shift to diamonds —— a very difficult ploy for West to make—-would have been highly ef- lective. South, however. promptly sur- rendered his advantage. After rufflng the second club, he laid down the heart king. East won West Pase \ ma. t“.

Just to think of it gives me a, headache." replied his mother. "When you grow up you will have horns like your father's. Those are good fight- ing horns, and fighting is what horns are for. For a fight give me sharp-pointed horns like mine and your father's. I really don't see how Cousin Bighorn can use those big clumsy things he calls horns." Just then Bighorn left the ledge above them and started to g0 higher. He didn't climb in Goat fashion but bounded from point to point in great jumps, now this , way, now that way. It was a sight to see. l-lad you been there l think you would have been ai- most sure that Bighorn hnd ' springs in his foot. It certainly looked like it. He would make a mighty bound and land on a tiny rock shelf hardly his enoush for his four feet held close tn- gethcr, then instantly bound to another n little higher. And he was as sure-footed as the ihrfifl Goats watching him. Were there springs in his feet? He couldn't have bounded up the mountain more easily if there had been. end-and that was the end of the matter! Dummy's entry was re- moved before South could really use the spades. and the result was a two-trick penalty! 4 South might have given some consideration to East's lead of the spade queen! What else could that card be but a singleton? (East scarcely would have made the lead from any other holding). Thus, South should have- been de- lighted that he had found the spade queen. and instead of try- ing to return to his own hand with a spade, he should have ruf- fed another club. drawn trumps. and finally discarded both of his diamonds on the good spades. ll!- lng the diamond ace as entry. _________ NATIVE T0 ARABIA The regular Arab trading vessel of the Arabian Sea and east Afri- can coast is called the dhow.
