Hairy knew little about Timmy, for
although they had long been neighbors
one slept while the other was out and
about. Thus they did not meet.
After several days Of hanging about
keeping watch Hairy decided that
Timmy had no idea Of visiting that
home again. Guess gave him .
scare he will not forget in . hurry"
thought Hairy. So Hairy dropped back
to his old habit of leaving in search Of
his breakfast just as soon as he came
out in the morning. But he never was
quite easy in his mind and would visit
his home two or three times Q day Just
to make sure that it was unoccupied.
Finding no one, his visits back home
became less and less frequent until ct
last he resumed his old habit Of being
gone all day, leaving early in the
morning and returning Just before
dark.
Then one day, his visits back home
having brought him back to the vicin-
ity Of the tree where his home was, he
decided that he was 50 near he would
take . look at it. He alighted on the
trunk well down and began to climb
up from force Of habit, looking for

hsme when, looking up, he saw . head
appear in that doorway and q second
later q brown form, which was white
beneath, glided gracefully down toward
the foot Of . tree some distance away.
With cry Of anger Hairy started In
furious pursuit. He might better have
saved his breath. T1mmy merely played
4 game of hide and seek aroa1nd the
trunk Of that tree, all the time climbing
up and up. When he was high enough
he launched himself into the air, his
legs stretched out until the fold Of skin
between them on each side was stretched
nat, and then glided gracefully down
to the foot Of another tree. It was Is il
he we're sliding or coasting on nothing
but the air. Hairy didn't have . chance
Of catching him, but was too angry to
realize this, and for some time kept up
the foolish chase, which really WSs

partner, and II he should now con-
structively bid five clubs, six hearts

The raise to four IN minor would
also be q strain-taking force to game,
telling him to go to five. but not be-

he could do nothing except bid three

bid three no trumps. Being in general

easy task, by any means. For there
to be . game in spades, despite my sin

on which he should bid three spades
over my one-no-trump response. On

pass my no-trump sign-o6 means that

which Later hardened into rock; and
IN coal mines men have located imprtnts
Of leaves, twigs and tree trunks.
Thus we know Q good deal about plant
and animal life which, scientists say,
existed millions Of years ago.
We can tell that reeds grew In moist
ground. There were tree ferns and
palms. Vast forests Of evergreen trees
covered parts Of the earth; and 1t Is
believed that the average height Of these
forest trees was about 40 feet. Some
trees Of that time grew to height Of
more than 100 feet, and had trunks
feet In diameter.

Southern Oregon are descended from

they were not present during the great
coal-forming age. The oak, the maple,
the beech and the walnut came later
than the redwoods, though they, too,
have Q long history.
The curious insects known Is walk
ing sticks" date back to the coal age
and, alas, the same may be said Of the
cockroach. Remains show that some
early cockroaches were 4 inches long.
What would q modern housewife say
II she found such q one In her kitchen!
There were no kitchens back In those
times, and It is believed that most OF
the large insects were f1esh-eating.
Spiders lived In rotten logs and on
tho ground; but II any Of them spun
webs We do not know about 1t.
There were maydies q large as q

Everyday Psychology

Almost every one: some time, some
where, has experienced . compelling
power within h1m-a compelling power
that some certain thing Just must be
done. A compulsion IS . consciously
performed act. II this isn't performed,
the individual experiences q. feeling Of
tense dissatisfaction. Compu;sions may
be merely momentary or they may
stretch out over q. long period Of time.
In all, probability, compulzons are
harmless activities. They merely repre-
sent the curious aspects Of mental life.
Every one knows what It Is to feel
compelled not TO step on cracks IN the
pavement. As an example, Of . long

I would, over a spade, bid two hearts
because I want to make distinctly
constructive response. Even If my part
ner now bids two spades and, over my
ensuing two no trumps, three spades,
am strong enough to take 1t to three
no trumps without much fear Of any
serious penalty. certainly do not want
to risk my partners passing response
of one no trump; am really too strong
to underbid to that extent. The hand
may be an utter misflt in any suit, but
it cannot be a bad misfit In no trumps.
That is where our safety lies, and our
safety in no trumps Is my justification
for taking out in four card suit. In

and none of these close questions arise,
as can bid two no trumps over one
spade. We definitely have safety In no
trumps, even If opener never says any
thing but spades. If he has or x In
clubs and cannot now bid constructively,
under the leeway principle, even a weak
secondary four-card red suit, then his
spades must be so long and strong that
he will insist on playing the hand at

So the next morning Hairy didn't fly
away as usual. He hung around where
he could keep watch of his home. 1t
wasn't until he just had to get meal
that he went where he couldn't see
that home. Then as soon as he had
eaten enough he hurried home. There
was no one in it. You see, Timmy,
having been found out, was too smart
to return so soon.
"I'll wait a few days" said Timmy
to himself. 'I'u give him a chance to
forget all about it. OF course, don't
have to use the house, but it is very
convenient at times and after all there
is no harm in doing it. Hairy doesn't
use it through the day, so why
