He went. to dummy with a diamond and returned a spade in the hope of set g up the suit, but his success was highly limit- ed. and the outcome was a five- trlck, 1400-polrri; penalty. In the postmortem, South argu- ed that he had ivery reason to feel that the opponents would make their doubled three-heart. contract, since he himself could not supply a trick. except. perhaps n diamond 1111f. This was more or less true-ii; ‘did look from the South position as though the op- ponents would make their con- tract. Nevertheless, South's take- out of the double was extremely rush! 'I'here was no reason to ex- pect either club or spade support ln the North hand, since North had bid diamonds i and doubled hearts, and therefore a. calamity was clearly brewing for South if he had to play the hand at. a high level.

Burgess) Roddy was quivering with both excitement and desire. excitement and desire. Not very gm- gwgy two good dinners werl walking about on the snow. Any- way he thought of them as dinners. 0f course they were not-yet. They were Thunderer the Grouse iuid Mrs. Grouse who had COme over from the Green Forest. They were walking about. as if the snow was neither deep nor soft. That was because in winter they havo what may be called snowshoe feet. These keep them from sinking dovim in the snow. They vralk on it easily. Some dry and frozen berries were still on certain vines and bushes. It. was these that had brought them over to the 01d Pasture. Now they were reaching up and pick- ing the berries from the bushes and vines. Hunger is in itself bad enough but; it is worse to be very. very hungry and at the same time walbch others eating vwhlle unable to get so much as a, bite yourself. Anyway it seems so. If. was that. way with Rieddy. He hasn't snowshoe feet so he couldn't get around in the deep snow. And there, so nearand yet so far, were tihosa two big birds walking a-bout and filling their crops as uncon- cerned as i1 there were no hungry Foxes in all the Great World. OI course Roddy didn't have to watch them eating while he went hungry. He might have joined Mrs. Reddy down in their room deeper tn the ground. He couldn't do that. He just couldn't. Those Grouse might wander near enough for him to spring out and catch one. It: was bad enough to lie there quivering with longing as he watched them eat, but it would be worse to find out later that they had been near enough to be caught when he wasn't there to catch them. For a while after he first saw them they came no nearer. Then as they looked for more berries they slowly moved toward the big flat rock close, by. Perhaps they didn't know that he and Mrs. Reddy had their home there, They might even wander close to the doorway. It would be wonderful to leap out on one. Raddy quivered at the bhought. J-ust n little Way out in front was n small tangle of vines and bushes. Reddy could see berries still on them. They were hardly more that two good jumps from his doorway. Thunderer and Mrs. Grouse were slowly coming to- ward them. Reddy qulvered. l-Ic drew back a little more so as to be sure he wouldn't; be ,see1i. Near- er drew the feathered vvisltors and nearer. They seemed to have no thought whatever of danger. They were urihurried as- they moved along.
