patiently How slow they were!
He did wish they would hurry. With
every little minute he grew hun
grier. It wouldn't do to 60 up to
Farmer Browns henhouse until it
was so dark that Farmer Browns
Boy would have gone into the house.
Slowly the shadows crept up to-

was all in darkness. Softly Jimmy

Then Jimmy Skunk knew that
1t was not Farmer Browns Boy who
had been before him, but some one
who likes eggs as well as Jimmy
does. For minute Jimmy lost his
temper and ground his teeth, he was
so angry.
1T must be that glutton, Shadow

began to search in all the other nests

something hanging from one Of
them. He reached up and gave it
a sharp pull. Down, right on top
OF Jimmy Skunk, tumbled Unc' Billy
Postum with big egg in his hands.
Jimmy was so startled that he
started to run. Then he turned to
look back. There lay Unc' Billy

Jimmy Skunk was hungry. There
was no doubt about it. He couldn't
think about anything but the empti-
ness of his stomach. Jimmy sat
down and gently rubbed his stomach
as he tried to decide what would
taste best for his supper. Let me
see," said Jimmy. II had beetles
for breakfast and grasshoppers for
dinner and now for supper I want
change. What shall it be?"
Just, then sleepy "cock-a-doodle-
doc" sounded from way over toward
Farmer Browns Jimmy Skunk
rubbed his stomach again and
chuckled softly, ''It's an egg want;

sleepily. When all was still Jimmy
Skunk crept inside, and If you had
been there to see you would have
found him wearing his broadest
smile, for, am sorry to say, Jimmy
Skunk felt quite at home tn Farmer
Browns henhouse.
Let me see; old Mrs. Speckles lays
the largest eggs and young Mrs.

Both North's and South's bidding
was optimistic, and a glance at the
four hands indicates little, if any,
play for the contract. However,
here is the defense which gave de-
clarer the hand. Almost any other
play would have beaten it.
A heart was opened and won by
the jack. The queen of clubs was
led. East won with the ace and led
the ten of diamonds, which held the
trick. A second diamond was won
by Vests jack and a second heart
played and won by the ace in dunn
my. The ten of spades was led and
flnessed, losing to Vests queen.
Now West led a third heart. De-
clarer won with the queen in dunn
my, discarded diamond from his
own hand and ran the spades. On
the last spade lead, East, who
thought he was squeezed, discarded
his next to the last club, whereupon
South overlook the ten of clubs
with dummys king and made his
ninth trick with the eight of clubs.
