Hundreds of summer campers,

Western North Carolina from
many parts of the country each
season to take part in the sum-

into the net. The netter with tri-
umph drops the catch into q waiting
bucket and the crew begins the eve
ning's count, "One."
With elation, the crew now begins
to hunt in earnest. There is no use
trying to chase the puppy with net.
He Is too agile for that, and though
he is looked upon as a stupid fellow,
he avoids most pitfalls, but cannot
reason out the unexpected tickling"
1t Is not uncommon for the fisher
men three" to bring home so or more
puppies
This interesting creature Is found
throughout the Eastern United States.
It is most abundant north and west
Of the Alleghanies. In the region of
the Great Lakes the streams and lakes
have an abundance of them.
Fishermen call it the water lizard"
water dog" and other names of a like
nature. Many persons believe the
puppy to be poisonous. Like other
amphibians, it has poison glands in
its skin. This is for protection from
enemies and to prevent the puppy
from diseases. A mud puppy will bite
you if you annoy him. His bite is
painful but not serious.
The mud puppy family loves fish
eggs, and where the whitef1sh and
perch go to spawn the puppies gorge
themselves on these eggs.
In the early Winter the males and
females are seen together in the shall
low water. They love to gather where
old logs, large rocks and other objects
are available for shelter.
In May and June mother mud
puppy is busily engaged in making her
nest, where the water is from to
feet deep and about so to 100 feet
from the shore. The eggs are at
tached to stones by slender stalks of
gelatinous envelopes. Each egg is in
an individual sack. There will be an
area of about 10 inches, with these
eggs swaying back and forth in the
water.
The wee puppies do not resemble
their parents until they are a year
old. Even at this age they are a
bright yellow and have a fetching
stripe on each side Of the body. Mud
puppies wax fat on small fishes, in
sect eggs and larvae, as well as on
earthworms and crayfishes.
The meat Of the puppy is said to
rival that Of frog legs. 1t is a deli
cious flavor, white and fine in quail
ity. The animal should be developed
for human food, and thereby be of
use.

in his own hand. He then laid
down the king of clubs and discarded
Vests losing spade.
Now, instead of attempting to
trump any losers in dummy, he led
his singleton heart in order to es-
tablish a cross-rud on the hand.
North took the king Of hearts with
the ace. He knew what East was
attempting to do, but he was un-
able to return a diamond without
sacrificing a trump trick. His best
lead was q small heart return, which
East trumped.
Mr. Aggressive led o club and
trumped with the ten of diamonds
in dummy. North overtrumped with
the jack and banged back a diamond,
but by this time it was too late.
East now held two diamonds in each
hand, after taking the diamond re-
turn with the ace in his own hand.
He led q spade-trumped 1t low in
dummy, returned heart and
trumped it low in his own hand.
He then led a club and trumped
with the queen in dummy. The
king of diamonds was the ninth
trick. North and South made the
ace of spades, the ace of hearts and
two trump tricks. If East attempts
to draw trumps at any time, he can
not make the hand. If you see a
fairly unusual distribution In your
hand and dummy's. it is likely that
the opponents distribution is also
unusual, so don't complain bitterly
if you find all the trumps in one
hand against you.
You certainly played that beau
tifully." said Mr.. Conservative. "It
was q pleasure to watch you"
II think I bid it even better" re-
piled Mr.. Aggressive happily.
Would you mind answering one
question, however, Why Is 1t that all
my best hands net me only 40 or
60 points?"
After all, 1t isn't the point score" ="
remarked Mrs. Conservative, recalling
that her side was safely ahead. Its
the theory of the game. I'd rather
make that hand than have a lay
down small slam"
What liars we all are" answered
Mr.. Aggressive, as he cut the cards
for the next deal.

This is one of the most interesting
letters the postman has brought In q

Corner readers live in far places. A
few months ago quoted letter from
the Gold Coast Of Africa, and now we
have this one from Pefu. Where will
the next interesting foreign letter
come from?
At first thought we might think
that a river in Peru would flow to-.
ward the Pacific Ocean, since the
coast of Peru is on the Pacific: but
the mighty Amazon system reaches
to the Andes, taking water from east
ern parts of Peru and emptying it in
the Atlantic.
What kind Of mineral comes from
the Carmen mine, Frank? From the
location I figure that it is probably
| copper or silver, but it may be gold or
something else.
Frank does not ask foT a single one
of the leaflets which are offered
through the Corner, but I am going
to send him several Of them, since he
lives so far away. He gives his
address as "Tirapata, Peru"
Thousands of copies of our latest

South passed. and Mrs. Aggressive
correctly bid one heart. North passed.
Mr.. Aggressive showed his other suit
by bidding two diamonds. West now
gave a strong response of two no
trumps. Despite his four primary
tricks, East realized that no fit had
been shown as yet in either of the
partners two long suits: hearts and
clubs. The bidding indicated that
East and West could probably take
four diamond tricks, two clubs and
a spade. Unless West could man
age to get two heart tricks before
North and South set up their spades,
three no trumps would probably be
a bad contract. He therefore signed
off by rebidding his club suit. West
also recognized the weakness in the
hand, and gave preference bid of
three diamonds, which was passed
all around.
Certainly with the high-card
strength shown in both hands, it
would seem that three diamonds
was a lay-down contract, but Mr..
Aggressive had to play the hand
very well to make it.

COME persons are able to profit from
past experience. Others are not.
The balance seems to swing under the
weight Of the "are nots." The ma
jority of us will make the same mis-
take more than once.
Is experience q good teacher? If
1t were we would not have need of so
much formal teaching. Schools of all
sorts in the last analysis are kept
going for the purpose of passing on
the values Of past experience. The
older generation, by scholastic method,
tries to tell the younger generation
something about its mistakes.
Why do most persons find It hard
to profit from past experience? II
may be that the majority of us are
lacking somewhere in intelligence.
That's one theory. But that theory
has been disputed. However, one thing
is certain: Those who are best able
to profit from past experience are also
those who learn most readily the
teaching in the formal school. And
any formal school Is a substitute for
the school Of experience.
Another theory states that those
who are less able to profit from past
experience are the ones who have had
too much protection. The spoiled
child doesn't dread the fire. The
burned child does.
There is still another theory to the
effect that the majority of US are not
able to put our experiences together.
We may profit from q single expert
ence, but we are not able to see the
connection between that one and the
next. What we need Is an experience

Junior Miss las Presto-Change Ensemble
Sun and Play Suits Are Riveted
Firmly Into Beach Scenes for
Present Season.
BY BARBARA BELL.

AND loungers, scanning the
passing show, find a great deal
of entertainment in studying
~ the different interpretations of
the sun and play suits that
have riveted themselves so firmly
into this years beach scenes that we
have come to look upon them as an
essential part Of every thoroughgolns
beach wardrobe.
The amusing little one sketched has
a piquant and whimsical air that Will
add to the fascination OF all junior
misses and most small women. II
comes in a grand array Of smart and
interesting materials, the prime Ia
vorite being cotton-seersucker, gapar-
dine, gingham, pique and twill. Linen
is popular, too, and 50 are all the
acetates and synthetic crepes. The
cottons, after all is said and done, are
really the most practical, however, for
they can be tossed into the family
washing every week without fear OF
encountering the calamities that
sometimes befall mysteriously proc
essed fabrics not intended for beach
wear.
One of the very incest points about
this ensemble is that the skirt con-
verts it into lazy-day dress, to wear
on the terrace, in the garden, up IN
the penthouse or, if grief must be
your portion, in the kitchen.
Very smart women and girls are
composing their suits of different col
ors and contrasting fabrics. Plaid
gingham is having great run for
shorts and shirts, with the skirt OF a
plain harmonizing color and material.
Seersucker is in great demand, when
is is checked in vivid rainbow hues
Intensified ones, of course). Rust
seems to have no real rival, If you
look well in it. If you choose it see
that your buttons are the stylish
wooden ones, made of bamboo.
