Bedtime Stories Reddy Makes a Discovery. BY THORNTON W. BURGESS. EDDY FOX was uncomfortable. | To begin with, it was hot| weather. Reddy is always| uncomfortable in hot weather. | His coat, even though much thinned out in Summer, is not just what you | would call a hot-weather coat. Sofl like most other people, Reddy is any- | zk:mx but comfortable on a very hot y. It had been very hot this day, and Reddy had been more than usually uncomfortable. You see, it was not only the heat that bothered him, but Reddy had fleas In this he was no different from most of the little people with fur coats. Fleas do love to get into a fur coat. So between the heat and the fleas Reddy hadn’t | enjoyed the day at all. Along toward evening Reddy went over to the Smil- ing Pool. He saw Jerry Muskrat swim- ming about, and Jerry looked very comfortable, Reddy said. “I am,” replied Jerry. “The heat | i ”H [m “IT ISN'T OF"I'EN THAT I ENVY ANYBODY,” REPLIED REDDY. .~ never bothers me. I certainly am | sorry for you people who have to live on land. None of that for me, If Mr. Sun is too hot and bright, I just keep in my cool and comfortable den until he goes to bed behind the Purple Hills. Then I come out and swim | around, just as I'm doing now. I have my troubles, as everybody does, but suffering from heat isn't one of them.” “It isn't often that I envy any- replied Reddy, “but I must confess that on such a day as this has been, I do envy some of you peo- ple who can manage to keep cool all the time.” Jerry Muskrat lay floating in the water, facing Reddy. He could see Nature’'s that Reddy was panting, for the heat of the day still lingered. “Come on in" said Jerry, “Come on in; the water’s fine.” Reddy waded out until the water was haliway up his legs. It felt cool and comfortable, He drank his fill. He stopped panting. The water there was shallow. The bottom of the Smiling Pool sloped off very gently. | Reddy moved out just a little. “Oh, come on in and have a swim,” cried Jerry. Now, Reddy could swim, but he, isn't exactly what you would call| fond of the water. He didn't like the | thought of plunging right in all over. | Perhaps you know what that feeling | is. Perhaps you have gone bathing and spent a long time trying to de- cide whether to wade in slowly or plunge in suddenly, Reddy couldn't make up his mind to take the plunge, 50 he kept taking a step or two and then standing for a few minutes. So very siowly he waded out deeper | and deeper. Pretty soon the water was halfway up his sides. How cool and refresh- ing it felt. He stood there for sev- eral minutes, just enjoying that com- | fortable feeling. Then he moved for- ward a little. almost up to the top of his back. The | their ensuing dishevelment. next time he moved forward the water | was over his back, and he was stand- ing with just his head out of the water. Yes, sir, that is the way he was standing.

HE conies are but a feeble | folk, yet make they their houses in the rocks"—so runs the verse in Proverbs. But the writer, could he visit haunts in our Western mountains, would hardly describe them as feeble. Small they may be, but also husky, active and capable of making some very wide, handsome leaps from rocks to | Tocks, on their fur-covered soles. | There are 12 species of these very interesting little mountain dwellers. ‘They belong in a class by themselves, and seem to be the missing link be- tween the rabbits and the guinea igs. " They love to roam over the moun- | tains at an altitude of 8 to 11 thou- | sand feet above sea level. You may | find them in the Rocky Mountains, in British Columbia, and from there to the south branch of the Macken- zie River, and also in Idaho, in the Salmon River, or Saw-Toothed-Moun- | tain section. They have cousins in Asia, but their closest kin in North | America is the hare. This slight re- semblance is one reason the cony is called “little chief hare,” or “whistling hare Contréct BY P. HAL SIMS. Safety Play. J HAVE been playing quite a lot of rubber bridge recently and I have noticed a deplorable carelessness on the part of some of the country’s fin- est players. The duplicate spirit is somehow missing—the old “die-for- | team-of-four” spirit. Overtricks do | not matter in rubber bridge, and with | relaxation of the determination to get the last notch out of the contract there | ‘has been a consequent slip-shoddiness in the play of every hand. What odds? Another hand will be along in & minute. 1 dare say that South would never have tried to drop the clubs 3-2 in duplicate. A minute’s thought would | have shown him the correct safety play. But South went ahead, slap- bang! Here is the hand. [ A Q-10-8 ¥ 9-4-2 ¢ J-9-4 & Q-J-6-3 The bidding Bouth N 8N.T. P 1. A strong bid, after a third-hand club bid. The overcall does not make the bid any the weaker, either. 2. Since South did not bid dne spade over one heart, North may assume that he does not hold four | spades. The raise in no trumps is | correct. West opened the nine of hearts. South ducked in the dummy and East won with the king, returning the five spot. Since I already intimated that South laid down the ace and king of clubs, there is nothing fur- ther to be said along those lines. South went down two tricks. The safety play, since South as- sumes that the clubs: will break | three-two, is for the declarer to play the ace, and then a small one. Had the king of spades not been in dummy he would have made that play, said South afterward, Too bad! Just for- get about kings of spades from this time on, South old fellow. East shows out and South puts up the ten spot. He wins the heart re- turn with queen, finesses for West's jack of clubs and makes four odd by finessing the jack of spades. The jack of spades finesse does not win, North While on your tramps in these sections, you may hear them. But remember to look in the opposite di- rection from the sound of the whistle, | for the cony is a famous ventrilo- quist! Crouched in the low grass, a cony | may be watching you with shiny eyes, his expressive whiskers fairly quivering | with curiostiy. His white-edged ears | look handsome and efficient, as they catch every vibration your footsteps make upon the ground. To recognize a pika, when he is sitting still beside a sun-drenched rock, is difficult indeed, as his yel- lowish-brown fur coat blends per- fectly with the surrounding colors. ! When he decides to bound away, you | discover he is tailless. As you climb over the steep rocks, you begin to take particular notice of the little “haystacks,” From now on, you will see so many of them, you realize the cony is a thrifty fellow, who puts by for the ‘Winter days though he is rot a hi- the Winter, weather.

About May, four babies are born to each mother cony.

Paul, don't you think—that | —that there’s a chance—if—if you | would—" | The look in Paul's eyes stopped him. For a moment he feared that he had taken undue license in a forbidden subject. Paul shook his head slowly. The spark in his eye that they had mis- taken for resentment proved to be only gratefulness for their under- standing. He even smiled, albeit a trifle ruefully. “No,” he answered. *“I thought there might be—a chance, for a while, and I built a lot of air castles. I wanted her back—there’s no use deny- ing it. I still do—but I know it's not to be that way—I know that, now.” They were silent and he hastened to reassure them. “Forget it,” he admonished. “Don't let it worry you for a minute. My failure is all the more reason why you two should make a go of it. And you will. It's mighty decent of you to even think about my troubles—and I ap- preciate it. So, run along and forget the whole thing. It's just the way the world goes—smooth for some—hay- wire for others.” ‘When they had gone, carrying Ray with them for an evening at the movies, Paul sat for some time in the chair, his eyes expressionless, staring | at the growing darkness in the court- yard below. The room was very still; the distant clock striking 7 was like a Tequiem. Suddenly he rose and crossed to the phone. After calling several num- bers, he finally got Puny on the other end. He spcke rapidly, authorita- tively. “Listen, Cupid, who was th’ little dame you been tellin’ me about?” ...“Who?” ... “Pansy what?” ... what? “Never mind.” . . . “Yeah.

By Wyatt Rundell. boon companion—for the evening— and friendships are made—and broken, where radiant personality flows from the neck of a bottle and nothing is asked of the host save a roof and the freedom of his side- board. Paul, in the midst of things, his resurrection loudly acclaimed, found it easy to slip back into his old niche. Surprisingly easy—after the third highball. But the women had a dis- turbing tendency to question, to probe. That, he resented. It seemed that the failure of his brief marital career had merely been a corrobora- tion of popular prophecy—to be ex- pected; amusing, even, healing passage of time. Puny was in his element. His round face was wreathed in a smile that refused to come off. He was| | gay, boisterous, loud. | slapped Paul on the back in an over- flow of affection. “Jus’ like old times—hey, kid?” he boomed. Paul's date, Miss Pansy Sakron- kowicz, the little dark-eyed “tonic” prescribed by Puny, proved a leech in black satin. She clung to Paul, He fled at the first opportunity.

Observing | Paul's entrance, he flung down his hand and pushefl back his chair. “Misdeal!” he bellowed. “I got a face card!” He stalked over to where Paul had | seated himself by the fireplace and sank into a chair opposite. They poured drinks from a decanter be- tween them. “Where's your little heart-throb?” inquired the fat boy, with a grin. “Out for air,” Paul told him briefly. “x hope I've sneezed her name for the ast time.” Puny laughed and drank deeply from his tumbler. “Hear about Bud and Sue?” asked idly. “Yeah.

Puny twisted in his chair. “Paul,” he said, “remember Tod Esmond, the | trombone man we had that went to New York a couple of years ago?” The figure opposite nodded listless- ly. Puny bent closer. “I had a letter | from him today. He's gettin’ a band together to go to the Canal Zone— | Panama, y'know. Leavin’ in August. He wants me to go along.” He paused and eyed Paul narrowly. “Well —good-by,” observed that young man. The fat boy hunched his chmr closer.

In England, the name can be traced as far back as the reign of Henry II, but beyond that little is known about how or when they came from France to that country. One John Le Poer held lands in County York in 1201. An old tradition exists in the family to the effect that some remote member of the family changed the spelling of the name for business reasons. Being a merchant and a vic- tim of hard times, he reasoned that if he changed his name to John Poor, it would no doubt attract the sympathy and trade of his townsmen. ‘The coat of arms here shown is ac- credited to Daniel, John and Samuel, “three Poore brothers,” who came to America from Wiltshire, England, in 1635, and settled in Newbury, Mass. ‘The color description of the arms is as follows: “Argent, a fess azure be- tween three mullets gules.
