wool outlook had not changed
materially in the past month.
Following increased buying in
June, to fill government con-

ened slightly. AS a result of the
defense program and improve

Book Notes .
RICHARD WRIGHT'S NEW
NOVEL PRAISED

Henry Seidel Candy, book critic,
said of Native Son." Richard
Wrght's new novel: "This power
full and sensational novel is very
difficult to describe so as to convey
its real purpose and it's real
strength. But it is important to
describe it accurately, because it is
certainly the finest novel as yet
written by an American Negro"
Like Grapes of WRATH" Mr..
Candy concludes, at is a fully
realized story of unfortunates, I'M
compromisingly realistic, and quite
as human as the Negro. To a grow
ing list of artistic achievements of
high quality, by a race which is
perhaps singularly gifted in art,
Native Son. must surely be added
with star for notable success"
Richard Wright is a very young
writer in that he is still in his
twenties. His latest book is the
March Book of the Month Club Sc
lection, an outstanding honor for
any authors volume.

Unc' Billy Possum was singing to
himself as he slowly trudged home
from Farmer Browns henhouse. He
was feeling very good, very good
indeed, was Unc' Billy Postum. No
one appreciates strictly fresh eggs
more than Unc' Billy does, and
waiting for him in Farmer Browns
henhouse he had found more than
he could eat. Now his stomach was
full, his house had been cleaned
and put to rights, ready for his
family when they should arrive
from "ol Virginny," and now he had
nothing to do but wait for them,
Sc he trudged along and sang in
a funny cracked voice.
Presently he came to his big hol-
low tree and started to climb up
to the door of his house. Half
way up he broke of short in the
middle Of his song. He sat down on
. convenient branch, put one ear
against the trunk Of the tree and
listened. Then hs put ths other

tail hanging out of the doorway.
Peter recognized 1t right away. No
one possessed tail like that but
Bobby Coon.
In minute Bobby followed his
tail, hastily backing down the tree.
Then Unc' Billy's sharp little old
face appeared at the doorway. Unc'
Billy looked down at Peter Rabbit
and grinned.
"Ah guess Mistah Coon done make
mistake when he went to bed in
nah house." said he.
And Bobby Coon sheepishly Cd
mitted that he did.

They were going to come out or
he would know why not. Unc'
Billy gritted his teeth and in he
went.
My! my! my! Such a rumpus
as there was right away in that
hollow tree! Peter Rabbit hap
pened to be coming along that way
and heard it. Peter stopped and
gazed at the hollow tree, his eyes
and mouth wide open. Such a snarl-
ing and growing! Then out the
doorway began to fly leaves and
moss. They were part Of Unc' Billy's

bed was all mussed up. But If he
couldn't see he could hear. Oh, yes,
indeed, Unc' Billy could hear per-
fectly well, and what he heard
was a snore! There was some one
in Unc' Billy's house and more than
that he was fast asleep in Unc'
Billy's bed!
Nah goodness! Nah goodness!"
exclaimed Unc' Billy Possum, and
his two sharp little eyes began to
snap. Then he stuck his head in
at the door and shouted:
I'll. yo' allsi What yo' al doing
IN ma house?"
Evening star., 1940-04-22

The only answer was another
snore. Unc' Billy waited a min
ute. Then he put his head in once
more.
'Yo' better come out Of NAH
house, Mistah Who-ever-yo'-are,
before All comes In and puts yo'
out!" shouted Unc' Billy.
The only answer was a snore
louder than before. Then Unc'
Billy quite lost his temper. Some
one who had no business there
was In his house! He didn't know

There certainly was a funny noise
and it seemed to come from right
inside his hollow tree. Unc' Billy
turned and looked up at his door,
way, scratching his head thought
fully with one hand.
Nah goodness!" said Unc' Billy,
"it sutt'nly sounds like there was
somebody in NAH ~house!"
Then very softly Unc' Billy crept
up to his doorway and peeped in.
It was dark inside, so that Unc'
Billy could see little else than that

West chose the most embarrassing
opening-a club. After winning with
dummy's ace South had to risk
playing three rounds of diamonds,
for he could not afford to draw
trumps. After getting rid of his
losing club dummy's spade was
played and South'S queen was won
by the ace. West led second club.
South trumped, then cashed his
king of spades, discarding dummy's
last diamond. South now had three
spades to trump, but only two of
dummy's trumps were tops" He
would have to risk trumping the
first spade with a small trump. He
therefore led a spade and to give
himself an infinitesimally better
chance trumped with dummy's six.
This slight safety play proved de-
cisive, for while East was out Of
spades his three trumps by some
freak of fate happened to be the
hve, four and three. When dunn
my's six of hearts held the trick
South spread his hand, for the re-
naming five tricks could be cross
ruffed by all top trumps.
