PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND'S LEADING PHOTOGRAPHERS Ll'L ABNER lly Thornton W. I Home! No one has ever heard More of meaning in a word, -Yap Yap. Yap Yap the Prairie Dog was working hard. So was Mrs. Yap Yap. They were digging a new home, a house in the ground. While one dug the other kept watch. They took turns. Two couldn't dig at the same time for there was room for only one at a time. Besides it was necessary that one should always be watch- ing for danger. But the one on watch was not idle. The earth being pushed out as the hole in the ground was dug. deeper and deeper had to be taken care ‘of. This was done by the one outside. it was used to make a circular mound around the entrance or.‘ doorway, a sort of raised door- step, a mound with e hole in the middle. ‘Ihey were equally fussrlnbout that doorstep. it was important. it was Jun as important as the it that new home would not be complete, not even safe. It was more than just a doorstep. It was n sort of safety wall. Without It there would be danger that in n time of very heavy rain. water would run down in and not only make it very uncomfortable for those inside but might even dro\vn habies should there be some in there. So it was a sort of dam or dike, and as such had to be built well and carefully. It must be made as firm as possible. If left loose it would soon wash away. So while one dug and pushed the earth out the other moulded it and patted and pounded it in place, not forgetting to sit up every moment or two for a quick look around for signs of danger. So as the hole grew deeper the mound around it grew higher and wider. For the first time since fear had driven them from their old home in Yapville, the Prairie Dog village where until now they had always lived, they were happy. Work. useful work, is one key to happiness, and there is no hap- nier work than the making of a home. They were too happily busy to be lonesome for the neighbors they had left behind. "This house in the ground is ' going to be just as good as the one we left and perhaps better," declared Yap Yap. “We'll make the hallway deen before it turns and then we'll make it long to the bedroom. We'll make a nice comfortable bedroom there. Perhaps later we will dig some side halls if we want them," said Mrs. Yap Yap. Yap Yap nodded. "We can even have a second entrance if we want to. although there is no real need of that. if we make our home far enough underground nu one is going to dig us out, not even old Digger the Badger. Even he will think it too much work. Blackfoot the Ferret is the only enemy we need to fear, and he can follow us anywhere we can go. So all we can do about him is hone he won't come this way," said he. So the entrance hallway, not quite straight down but nearly so, was dugwiown. down, down for more than a dozen feet before it was turned and ug as far of‘! to one side. How d they get all that earth outside? That is one o! their secrets. All I can tell you is that they did it. You will often hear it said that "there are tricks in all trades." Digging deep holes is the Prairie Dog's trade, and if there is a trick about getting the barth but he knows it Just two or three feet below the entrance was dug a sort of shelf, just big enough for one Prairie Dog to turn around on and sit, safe from any one outside, yet ncar enough to the doorway to hear sounds outside ,a sort of listening post. When at last the littie_ round bedroom was made to suit Mrs. Yap Yap she took in some dry grass and other mater- ial. This made a nice comfortable bed. "Now there is one more thing to do," said Yap Yap. 1' hole they were digging. Without‘ urgessl "What?" asked Mrs. Yep Yap. “We must cut all the tell weeds tor some distance around so that when we sit on our doorstep we can see in plenty of time any Fox for Coyote or other enemy trying ito sneak up on us," Yap Y!!! 9X- plained. l "Of course," replied Mrs. Yap Yap. It was done that very day.

West, for want of a better choice, opened a trump. South won with the nine. cashed the diamond ace ,and ruffed a diam- ond. He then cashed the club ace. ruffed a club, and drew trumifl- Going back to dummy with I heart, he hopefully cashed the club king, but the queen refused to drop. South could discard either a heart or a diamond on the club king, but not both, and so the grand slam was gone. South's timing left much to be’ desired in the play 0f I-hls hud- Obviously. the club suit had to be established, and it easily mlllhi be necessary to rufl two rounds. Thus, at the second trick, and he: fore using up one of dummys precious entries. South should have cashed the club ace, then rufled a low club. Then it- would be logical to cash the diamond ace and rufta diamond! Now the ruff of another low club WWI!“ surely establish the rest of the suit. and it would be elementary to draw trumps, go back-to the heart ace. and discard losers.
