had surrounded the German garri-
son at Ogulin, % miles inland, and
destroyed the largest bridge on the
railway from Ogulin to Karlovac
and zagreb.
Martial Law Reported.
Intensified sabotage in south
ern Hungary, meanwhile, forced
the Germans to proclaim martial
law there, the Swedish newspaper
Dagens Nyheter said in a Buda-
pest dispatch reported by the
Office of War Information.
Stockholm reports said dis
patch to the same newspaper
asserted Hungary's German mi
nority had appealed to the
Hungarian government for pro-
lection from Heinrich Himlers
German Gestapo. The minority
leader was quoted as protesting
that Himmler's agents were using
violet terroristic methods"
against German Nationals, pre-
sumably to insure obedience to
Nazi ordersD

Hltler-ruled Balkans again were

side. Then I can creep up to the

No sooner thought of than Peter
was off, lipperty-lippcrty lip, back
to that corner of the garden where
the curious big hole was. AS he
drew near he moved slowly and
very carefully, looking before he
leaped. So presently he came 10
the big hole which Farmer Browns
Boy had dug. In the moonlight it
looked like great round black
shadow. Slowly and carefully Peter
crept to the very edge and peeped
over. 1t was deep, much too deep
for him to have jumped out had
he fallen in. And the sides were
straight up and down. Peter no.
ticed this right away. He couldn't
have jumped out, and he couldn't
have climbed out to save his life.
"PheW! That WAS a narrow es-
cape" exclaimed Peter right out
loud.
At the sound of his voice, it
seemed to Peter that something
moved down there in the darkness
at the bottom of the big hole. He
stared with all his might. After
little, he began to see more clearly.
You know Peter can see quite we'll at
night-as we'll as by day. There was

Bedtime Stories
BY THORNTON ". BURGESS
4 little slip. a little fall,

~ stt IN lTOupF, IHat is all,
Peter Rabbit was lucky; just plain
lucky and nothing else, when he
managed to keep from falling into
the pit which Farmer Browns Boy
had dug in the corner of the garden.
AS it was, he slipped down to the
very edge so that his heart was in
his mouth. But he managed some
how to get his footing again and
scrambled up the pile of sand to
the place where he had been sitting
when the sand began to slip and he
so nearly slid into that black pit.
In daylight that pit wouldn't have
looked black, but in the moonlight.
which was when Peter discovered
it, it looked very black and ever so
deep.
Now if Peter had fallen in. he
would have had no one to blame but
himself. He had no business in
that garden, and he knew it. Fur
thermore, it was nothing but idle
curiosity which had taken him up
to the top of that pile of sand on
the edge Of that big hole. You
may be sure that Peter was fright
ened. OF course. he was verv much
frightened, and at first he thought
he would get out of that garden as
quickly as he could before something
else happened to him. So he started
for the hole in the fence by which
he had entered. Half way there he
had begun to get over his fright,
and by the time he reached the hole
In the fence, his curiosity, that
dreadful curiosity which gets Peter
into so many scrapes, was greater
than his fright.
Il wonder who made that big hole
and what it is for" thought Peter.
1T is a funny thing to be in Farm
er Browns garden. I wonder how
deep it is. I wonder If I could have
jumped out If I had fallen in. 1
wonder if any one else knows about
it. I wonder" There Is no
knowing how much more Peter
would have wondered if Just at that
minute he hadn't heard tiny
scream. Peter pricked up his long
ears and sat UP to listen. But
though he listened with all his might
he heard nothing more.
That sounded as if it came from
the direction of that big hole"
thought Peter. Can it be that
some one has fallen in? Ill be-
lieve I'll go back and have another
look at that hole. If l am very
careful. there will be no danger. I
won't climb up on that pile of sand
again, because it might slip and

The tTo-heart contract was full
filled, as it would have to be against
normal defense. West opened the
spade king, continued spades, and
ruf1ed third round. Now he could
have defeated the contract by un-
derleading his three top clubs and
overrufflng dummy on a spade re-
turn; but instead he tried to cash
two high clubs. The second was
ruffed and South, after drawing
trumps, conceded only one more
trick-to the diamond ace.
This gave North-South the game
and rubber when East-West could
have made small slam in clubs
even though the only important
card outstanding, the diamond king,
was offside
East thought he would get in the
first blow by criticizing Vests dou-

trumps. But West was ready for
him.
