Quack were keeping their Impa- tient. tired, hunugry flock our, on the middle oi the Big River. Most of the flock were the chil- dren of Mr. and Mrs. Quack. A few straggiers had joined them on the way down from the northern 1195M"! arounds. This day they had flown long, hard and 1m Looking shoreward they saw an. other flock quietly resting on the‘ water just outside a great bed o! wild rat-e. Tnerc must be others hidden in that bed, for one was milieu wring them to come get some of that 800d rice. Why didn't their leaders let them go?

Again‘ Mr. Quack nodded. “Those bther Ducks ova.- there don't think there is any danger,” said one of the three who had Just Joined the flock. » “Neither does that one calling to us from the rice.

"If we don't go soon the l over there will get all the rice.” complained a third. “There are no Ducks over there." said Mrs. Quack. "Quack. quack, quack!" called the voice in the rice as i! in answer and all the flock turned to look at Mrs. Quack as much as to say, "What do you make of that?" I suspect that Mrs. Quack would have smiled ii’ she could have, but a Duckfls bill is not for smiling Instead she said. "Listen! 9.7m: one is coming." Sure enough some one was com- ing and coming fast. There was a whistling sound that only fast moving Duck wings can make And there was the flyer, a lone Duck coming from up the Big River. He was flying high. He passed over them. turned and came back, set his wings to come down and join them on the water. then changed his mind. He had seen that other; flock over by the rice near the shore. He heard the calling from the midst o! the rice. His wings began to move again. He climbed . saic another. It was plain that, most of the others agreed with him. “So a.m I. We'll go there alter dark. Then it will be safe." said Mrs. Quack quietly. “It won't Le any safer than it is now." said one hungry young Duck MMOOMMQMOOZ _ liapoleon andilnele Elbv B!

South avoided this particular pit- fall. At the second trick. letting the trump suit wait, he led a diamond and discarded a heart on the second round. But on the third lead of diamonds, when East ruffed in with the spade nine, ‘South undid his own good work by over-rafting with the king. instead oi’ discarding his last heart. Now there was simply no, hope for ten tricks ea the cards lay.

He climbed higher and made a wide turn to go over to the other flock. ‘fquack, quack, quack, quack!" called the one in the rice. And again. "Quack, quaclnquack!" The lone flyer flew high above the flock on the water and over the big bed of rice. He was flying fast. For a moment it looked as if he‘ would keep on not stop at all. He was merely looking things over. Beyond and returned. He was flying lower now. That flock on the water at the edge of the rice was still there. The one in the rice was still call- ing. It was clear that he meant to Join those Ducks on the water. He didn't. There was a sharp report over in the rice the bang of - a terrible gun. The lone Duck dropped. A hunter appeared from his hide-out, called a. blind, in the rice. He waded out and picked up the lone Duck. The tlock on the water near the edge of the rice didn't move. They couldn't. Tlfey were made of wood. They were decoys. _ "We will wait until after dark." said Mrs. Quack. Now none of he: flock protested. She and Mr. Duck hadn't been fooled by those decoys or by that calling voice. The next story: "Mrs. Quack Ex- plains." KING OF TH mac's nus 1.o.u. its m.
