Lee of Chicago, Ill, “I think you will agree with me when I say that a player should not be optimistic unless he is certain that he will always play the hand so as to get the most out of the cards. At first glance you would think I was fortu- nate to hold the North hand after my partner had opened with two no-trump. I made the modest re- sponse of four diamonds, expecting to arrive at a nice small slam con- tract, when my partner, whose two no-trump bid was not too robust to start with, made the amazing bid of seven no-trump.

Now, Bobby Coon is a great practical joker. There is nothing that he likes better than to play & joke on some of the little people of the Green Meadows and the Green Forest, and every night after he has fillgd his stomach he goes about playing tricks. Ever since the morning when Johnny Chuck had slept until nearly noon because Bobby Coon had covered his doorway with hay so that no light could get down to his bedroom, and so he didn’t know when to get up, Johnny had been trying and trying to think of some plan to get even with Bobby Coon. He had called in Jimmy Skunk, who had spent all of one morning trying to find his own house, which Bobby Coon had buried in sand while Jimmy was out hunting beetles. | Suddenly they heard a sound in the big hickory which made Jimmy Skunk jump and dance a jig. “I have it!” he shouted. “Do you (I) INSERT—RENTS (landlords like these).
