What is treasurer? Who shall say? I hoard whet you throw away. -—'i‘rsder the Wood Rat. Trader the Wood Hat prefers to sleep through the day and do his trading end collecting through the night. But that doesn't mean that he never is out in daytime. Once in a while he is, especially on dull days or late in the afternoon. Like so many things it depends on cir- cumstances. Usually there is noth- ing important enough to take him outside before shadow time. Today there was. He had been robbed. Yes, Bir, he had been robbed. Any- way that is how he regarded the mutter. The things he regarded as the greatest treasures in his collec- tion, and which he had obtained iby what he considered honest trade. hsd been taken. What were these treasures? Two Qoons, l fork. e can opener, and l Scout whistle he had collected in the night in Farmer Brown's sugar camp while Farmer Brown's boy and his cousin were asleep there. He had left in exchange a big pine cone, some small cones. pebbles and a. rusty nail. To him there was nothing wrong in taking these fascinating bright things that gllttered in the moonlight while he was carrying them home. He felt @t it was an honest trade. He had left a greater number of things than he had taken. Now he wondered if those treasures had been taken back where he got them. He suspected that they had. He couldn‘t wall: for darkness to find oul. Now he was back of the sugar camp and he was sure he hadn't been seen.‘ He made sure that those two-legged giants who had taken his treasures were not in the camp. They were away collect-g ing sap from the maple trees. This was Trader's chance. 1f this treasures were not back there where he had found them there were others there. He darted to the corner where before he had crept in through a. hole he had gnawed. Such a disappolntmentl It was one oi’ the greatest disappoint- ments oi his whole life. There was no hole! He couldn't understand it. Where that hole had been was , something hard and smooth. When he tried to gnaw it he couldn't. Hi5 teeth, sharp as they were, i couldn't bite into it the tiniest bit. It was a piece of tin. He couldn't get into that place unless he went around front to the open door, and he didn't dare do that for one o! those giants was returning. 8o he darted back under cover and watched and waited. But there was no chance. That camlp was a busy place. Farmer Brown's boy and his cousin were constantly going back and forth as they col- lected the sap. Inside Farmer Brown himself was boiling the sap into syrup. some of which would later he made into sugar. Trader gave up watching and went home. "I'll go back there after dark when everybody in there is asleep. Perhaps I can find e way to get in then." said he to himself, and finally went to sleep 1o dream of the most wonderful collection of shiny, glittering treas- ures that any trader ever had. Meanwhile Farmer Brown's boy and Cousin Ned had kept their eyes open for a glimpse of Trader. Farmer Brown's boy was all too familiar with Robber the Brown Rat, also culled Norway Rat, whom he had often seen around the barn.‘ and of whom it would seem no good thing can be said. But Ftobbei-‘s cousin, Trader.'the Wood Rat, he never had seen. They didn't see Trader but they didn't stop thinking about him. "He'll be back again tonight." said Cousin Ned. "He will Lry to find o. way of getting in the camp. He won't forget the treasures he found id here. Now that we have blocked that hole so that he can't get in he'll be a terribly disap- pointed Rat." He didn't know that Trader was already just that. “I'll tell you what. let's put some things outside tonight and see if Ll'L KBNER lly Thornton W.

That night ‘rrader est in the midst of the Black Shadows and waited and waited for things to become quiet around the sugar house. At long last all was dark and still inside. Trader crept l0 where the hole had been. It was still blocked. Then he started to go around to the front. Half way there he came to a small box. l-ie peeped into it. Such a happy sur- prise!

Eastern Rhythm Boys ADMISSION 35o Meet your friends there tonight Pass Pass Pass East's double of the four-spade contract was of questionable merit. True, North's preemptive raise had made it very uncomfortable for East to show his own suits, but his partner's club bid at the two- level strongly suggested that East had enough support for a raise to even five clubs». As it happened, five clubs could not have been made, but the, result still would have been better from the East- Wess point of view. . Defending against the spade con- tract, West opened his singleton diamond jack. East put up the ace and returned the diamond queen. Although South could see what was coming, it would certainly do no good to hold up the king. so he played that card, and, as he expected, saw it ruffed away by West. i West returned the heart queen. South ruffed - and he now had to consider whether any play could salvage the two low diamonds which were still in his own hand as well as in dummy. After a moment's thought he found the '41.
