The Tame Animals Have A Talk

-And It's All About Their Wild Relations-

NE day." said Ting-a-Ling "ONE Kart and Hand, the shadows, "all the tame animals who lived on the farm met to gether in the meadow for a talk. There were the cat, the dog, the goose, the cow, the pig, he horse, the hen and several others. And what do you sup- pose they talked about?"

Nedding, Ting-a-Ling said, "And the cat went on telling about more of her wild relations.

But now Cousin Buffalo lives mostly in 2005.'

"Then Goose spoke up. I have a wild relative, but he doesn't harm any one. He looks almost the same as I do, perhaps even a bit smaller. He's Cousin Wild Goose. But he is one of the most wonderful fiers, luster even than the eagle and the hawk. In the Spring he fles almost up to the North Pole, to bring up his little ones. Then who isn't in the autumn the whole family flies; down south again. I often see Cousin Wild Goose flying past sometimes he even stops for a bit in my pond to visit before travelling on."

There's also Cousin Tiger, the said, and Cousin Leopard, and Cousin Puma and Cousin Wild- cat. They are all strong, fierce and very, very wild. There is hardly anyone afraid of them.

Tricks Are Needed In Tournament Play

By OSWALD JACOBY DECEPTIVE play is more com-

mon in tournaments than in regular rubber bridge because extra inleks are so much more important. In regular bridge. a sensible opponent will take the setting trick when he gets 0 chance to do so. In tournament bridge even a sensible opponent cannot afford to set you one trick if everybody else who holds his cards collects a two-trick set,

This fect was the background for a neat deceptive coup executed by Peter Leventrilt in the 1940 - tional championships Like pract!- cally everybody else. Pete got to the unmakable contract of four spader in the band shown today.

Pete won with the king of clubs and, since be to the work of chap. who can think on his seat, soon worked out what was going on.
