The contract was poor one
neither high enough nor low enough.
With break in the spade suit,
South coulo make six no trump
against any defense. while without
a break in spades South could 20
down at five no-trWnp-as he would
have II West had opened a heart.
But the card West chose to open
was the ten Of diamonds, and
against that opening South could
have made the game and rubber
sure.
Dummy played low on the dia-
mond ten, and East played the SIX
so South won with the Jack. South's
next play should have been to lead
the ten Of spades and duck it in
dummy, letting East win with the
jack. South should not have mind
ed losing one trick in spades to make
sure that he would get five tricks.
Five spade tricks, two hearts, two
diamonds and two clubs would
have given him the eleven tricks he
needed for five no-trump.
But South did not stop to think
about this. Realizing that such a
suit as the spades can usually be
cleaned up without loss, South sim
ply led low spade and tried to
cash the ace, king and queen.
When he played the second spade he
left himself without an entry to
dummy. so it would no longer help
him to set up the spade suit-he
could not get into dummy to run it..

think back and so he quite forgot
that Old Mr.. Toad could dig him.
self right down quite out of sight
in the sand at the bottom of the
pit and so get out of the sun.
Carefully Peter crept to the edge
Of the pit and looked down in. 1t
was still quite light, for jolly, round,
red Mr.. Sun had not long disap-
peared behind the Purple Hills, back
Of which he goes to bed every night.
Peter gave a funny little gasp and
then he swallowed hard once or
twice. He could see all over the
bottom Of that pit and nowhere was
Old Mr.. Toad to be seen! No, sir
there wasn't sign of Old Mr.. Toad.
Peter rubbed his eyes and stared
very hard What did it mean? What
had become of Old Mr.. Toad? Where
had he gone to? Had some enemy
found him helpless prisoner there
and caught him? That didn't seem
possible for Peter couldn't think of
any one who would dare 20 down in
oAAho ilolC VI wiz Soulu SCt OQl dSdlll
if they cid go down.
Could it be that Farmer Browns
Boy had been over there and had
taken Mr.. Toad out? Hastily Peter
looked to see if there were any fresh
tracks of Farmer Browns Boy, but
he couldn't find single fresh track.
Back to the edge of the pit went
Peter and sat staring into it, as if
he thought that by staring hard
enough he could see Old Mr.. Toad.
1t was a great mystery, very great
mystery. Old Mr. Toad certainly
couldn't have climbed out himself.
No one could. The sides were too
straight and too crumbly for any
one to climb them. Peter didn't
know what to think. The more he
tried to think the more puzzled he
became. Where was Old Mr.. Toad?
What had become of him?

Old Mr.. Toad. You remember that
Old Mr.. Toad had fallen into a
great pit in a corner of the garden
and that all that day Peter had
tried to think of some way to help
Old Mr.. Toad out. He had almost
run his legs of trying to find Sammy
Jay. At least. that is the way his
legs felt. Sammy was the only one
Peter could think Of who could get
Farmer Browns Boy over to that
pit and Farmer Browns Boy was the
only one he could think of who could
get Old Mr.. Toad out.
But Sammy Jay had been nowhere
to pe found and Peter felt that all
his efforts had been for nothing He
had SO hoped to be able to help
Old Mr.. Toad through Sammy Jay
and Farmer Browns Boy, and all he
could do was to try to cheer up Old
Mr.. Toad and keep up his spirits,
This didn't seem like doing anything
at all. But in this Peter was mis-
taken. To try to comfort and cheer
those in trouble is to do one of the
very best things in all the world.
AS Peter drew near the edge of
the deep pit in the corner Of the
garden he paused Somehow he
couldn't bear to look down in there.
He knew that Old Mr. Toad cannot
bear the hot sun and there he had
been in the bottom Of that pit all
the long, hot day without a thing
he could crawl under.
"He must have suffered great
deal" thought Peter "WlH didn't
think to cut some big cabbage
leaves and drop them down there
for him to get under? How stupid
I am. III do it tonight, 50 that he
may have them tomorrow. They will
keep the sun off. My after thoughts
are a great deal better than my
before re-thoughts.
In this Peter is not unlike a great
many people. fter-thoughts are
very often great deal better than
before-thoughts. But the real trou-
BILE with Peters thinking was that
he didn't think enough, although
he tried hard enough. If with his
thinking he had remembered things
which he had found out it would
have saved him some worry regard
ing Old Mr.. Toad. But he didn't
