NORTIIUMBERLAND FEIIRIES LTD. Head Office: (YHARLOTTETOWN, P. E. L For Particulars Phone 13. Charlottetown. She couldn't fly with izhose burrs clinging to her ivings. Great World is there any one for w'noni i.roii'ble is not lying in wait. Small feathered and furred folk lalways have hungry bigger folk llooking for them. So they must always be watching for danger. But liiiiigryfolk looking for them -are not the only -d8IlgE'l'5. Acc- idents happen Just as they do to boys and girls and older folk. So thry niiist. be watchful lest they xrun or fly into trouble. t The Humniingtbird folk are so 'small. so swift of wing. so quick .in all their-movements. that they tare in less danger from hungry lilllllteifs than are nl3lL'v' bigger Kfcathcrcd folk. On the other hand 't.hey have to watch out for dan- .;:,crs that bigger folk do not know. lMoi'ing as quickly as they do tihey lmust constantly be on watch with those tiny bright eyes of theirs lost, in a mo-nicnt of hecdlessness ior carelessness they fly into lurk- ;ne troL.blc. ' This morning little Mrs. illum- mcr was in hurry to get her ihreakfast and get back to those iprccious cccs. Perhaps one was still drcaiiiing of the wee babies iihat would conic from those tiny genus. Anyway she flew after a tiny Fly that had flown among the Iloaves of a big plant. a plant call- cd bui'd-ark. Perhaps you know lwihat the burrs are like that grow ,0l'I this plant, and how they clinr, to your clothes if you brush against ttheni. Perhaips you have stuck lthcm together to make balls. or lcvcn little baskets. You wouldnil. jsuspect them of being anything 'but a nuisance by sticking to your lclothes. But then you are not -tiny like little Mrs. Hummer. Be- ifnrc she realized what was hap- pening she had brushed against Kxome of those burrs and they clung to her wings. I She forgot. all about that escap- lirig Fly. She was in trouble. very lreal Lrnuible. She couldn't fly with lthose burrs clinging to her wings. No. sir. she couldn't fly. She was la. sort of prisoner of those burrs. It was one of the worst things that could happen to her. Yes, sir. it. was so. All she could do was to flop about helplessly on the ground. She couldn't walk about. I-ler legs are too short and her feet too tiny for walking. They are so tiny that some folks think a Hum- miiigibird cannot even perch. But this is a mistake, a. very great mistake. Hummingbirds delight to rest perched on small twigs that those tiny feet can grasp. Often they perch on a telephone wire. Poor little Mrs. Hummer! There was nothing she could do to help hr-i-self. Work as she did sthe could- ngt free herself or those terrible burrs that bound her wing fea- thers togethcr. Not. only was she in the greatest dargcr herself. but those pi-ccioiis eggs might, get chilied and there would be no Hllllln1lll,'!r.)llTlE hatched from them. She beat. her wings frantically. but they couldn't lift her. All she could do was to make a rustling sound in the dry leaves. Poor Mrs. Hummer! D-”-Der published in New York Cit.y THE GUARDIAN.

P33 3 Q Pass 1 N T P”? 5 Q Pass 6 V P355 Pass Pass South hesitated quite a while over five hearts. obviously tempted to try for a grand slam. but he fin- ally decided to be "conservative." West. figuratively tossing a coin between spades and diamonds. the unfbid suits. opened a lonv spade. and dcclarer reached for dunimyls ace uithout a moment's consideration. I-le drow the out- standing trunrps, then contideiitly started to establish dummy'l ciuibs. This confidence was obv- iously misplaccd, hovwcvcr - West's two stoppers in the club suit formed an insiirmounl.aible barrier. If South had had no other chance for his contract than to set up the clubs, he would have had a valid cause for roviirplaiiit against "luck" but the fact is that he did have another ciliance one which aiiiounted to a of safety RV. The right plan was to duck the opening spade lead! Suppose that East produced the king - what of it'.' South could 'always discard a club on the spade ace and in that way lose no rlub trick. and if the hoped-for 3-2 club break existed. he would set. up dumimy's suit via one riitf and discard his two lor- the diamonds, In short. the spade finesse could not. cost. anything. and it uould give South an extra chance against the p0S5Iibllli:V that clubs were dli"lCl9d 4-l.
