Bedtime Stories
BY THORTON w. BURGESS

You know what an acrobat is.
OF course. He is one of those funny
fellows who turn somersaults in the
air and do all sorts of funny things
that you wish you could do, but
cannot. Sooty the Swift is the
acrobat Of the air. That is what
Peter Rabbit says, anyway, and
Peter ought to know. You see
Sooty has shown Peter what he can
do In the air and Peter is quite
sure that he can do some things
which no other bird can do. ANY,
way, Peter never has seen any other
bird do them. 1t came about in this
way: Sooty had promised to tell
Peter about the nests and how he
builds it in the chimney of Farmer
Browns house. But Sooty didn't
want the other birds to hear. IT
tell you what" said he to Peter,
you go back to the dear Old Brier
Patch. and late this afternoon I'll
come over there and tell you about
my nest just as I have promised.
don't want the other birds to hear,
for it is none of their business"
That will be fine" replied Peter.
There will be no one else in the
dear Old Brier Patch but Mrs.
Peter, and Of course you won't mind
her" ....
mot at ALL" replied Sooty. Now
run along and I'll see you later"
So Peter scampered back to the
dear Old Brier Patch and told Mrs.
Peter all that he had learned about
Sooty the Swift, which wasn't a
great deal and how Sooty had
promised to come over to the dear
Old Brier Patch late that ate
noon to tell them about his home
In the chimney of Farmer Browns
house and how he builds it there.

nap by a voice just overhead.
"Chitter chitter chitter chit
chill" cried the voice, and Peters
eyes popped wide open. Sooty the
Swift had proved true to his words,
and had come as he had promised
he would. At once Peter called Mrs.
Peter, and they hurried out to the
edge of the dear Old Brier Patch,
where they could watch Sooty with
out any twigs or branches to inter-
fere.
Sooty saw them at once and came
racing over them as only he can.
"Chitter chitter chit chit!" he
shouted as if his short, narrow, odd
Snapped wings beat the air so rapid
ly that Peter couldn't for the life
of him tell whether he used both
wings together like other birds or
first one and then the other, as
some people say he does. Then he
held them spread and sailed in a
little circle right over Peter and
Mrs. Peter. "I1l have to do all my
talking while I am flying" he
shouted.
Why" asked Peter. why don't
you rest in one of these little trees
here in the dear Old Brier Patch"
Can't" shouted Sooty as he once
more sailed over them. Il never
alight in trees, at least not on the
branches of trees. My feet are not
made for perching like those of
other birds. They are made for
clinging with the help of my tail
to the inside of hollow tree or
chimney. I prefer a chimney be-
cause it is easier to get in and out
Of So I couldn't sit on one of the
branches of these trees if I wanted
to, and goodness knows I don't want
to; want to be in the air.
I've told Mrs. Peter how I saw
you go down Farmer Browns CHM
ney and thought you had fallen.

North never gave his partner q
chance. Including his attempt at Z
psychic" club bid to stop . pos-
sible club opening, he practically
bid a small slam on his own cards
alone, for South's bids Of three and
four hearts did not guarantee any
strength.
When East doubled, his purpose
was to call attention to the fake
nature Of the club bid and ask West
to open club. If West had heard
the double he probably would have
opened the club jack, and the con.
tract would have been down three,
with three club tricks and a fourth
club ruffed with Vests heart Jack.
But West did not hear East's dou.
BILE as such; East mumbled 1t SO
that 1t sounded like pass. So West
made his normal opening Of the
queen Of diamonds.
After this opening East had to
make an excellent defensive play to
defeat the contract even one trick.
South ruffed the diamond, then
drew two rounds of trumps and dis
carded two clubs on the ace and
King OF diamonds. Then South led
low club from dummy.
II East had put up his club king
on this, to make sure Of winning the
trick, South would have made the
contract. East's next play would
have had to be either a spade into
dummy's tenace, a club which would
establish dumny's queen or dia.
mond which would permit South to
discard a spade while runing In
dummy. But East foresaw these
/ dangers and played . low club.
Vests jack won the trick, and now
when West led q spade South had
to lose a trick to East's king and
go down one.

NEW BOMBER WINGS

War Production Board officials
admit that Martin is tagging sadly
in production, but the same is true
of most Of the bomber plants in
the country. Production of fight
erS is up to schedule, production
Of training planes is ahead of

ers is discOuragingly low.
Explanation in the case Of Mar
tin is that the wings have recently
been redesigned. In it's previous
form, the B-26 was designed for
operation from the long runways
of British airpOrts, landing at
great speed. But these planes
cracked up on the improvised run
ways of the South Pacific, and
they had to be redesigned to pro-
vide longer wings.
UAW now feels confident they
can get the necessary one-third OF
the workers signed up on the petit
ton for an election Martin will
probably oppose the petition, and
UAW will appeal to National Labor
Relations Board.
Meantime, Martin has been lay
ing off more men, and it may take
some time for him to catch up with
his production schedule.
