Can there ever be a feast like a
threshing dinner'' bet. there are
people in this world, constantly on the
search for a meal to be remembered,
Who cannot find for money what we
farmers get every year at Aunt Mar-
tha's place. The threshing dinner is
the high spot in every year of opera-
tions on that farm.
The old dinner bell clangs on the
back of the kitchen. The machine toots
and settles off with the belts coming
to a slow, slapping stop and the
machine idling clown and suddenly
stopping. The men come down out of
the mows, 'The feeder jumps dowtt
from his platform . the separator
matt emerges from the (lest carrying
his long oil can , , Uncle George
comes out of the granary and says,
"Well, come on boys, t guess we'll
see if there's anything to eat",
On a bench under the maple tree at
the back door there will be a row of
washbasins with a cake of soap beside
each one and towels neatly stacked
tip. Mies are tossed off and there it a
great splashing of water. The white
towels are soon stained, Aunt Martha
appears at the side door, her ample

values South has indicated by his
bidding and because a lead from any
other suit would be a hazardous guess.
After winning the first trick, pro-
bably all the declarers decided on the
rather obvious plan of Puffing two
hearts in dummy, and counting on the
diamond suit for not more than two
losers.
Unfortunately several declarers must
have drawn another round of trumps
before leading hearts, without first
reckoning the possible consequences.
When the spades failed to break, and
North switched to a heart lead at the
third trick, he found that it was too
late.. West won and returned his last
spade, thereby reducing the dummy
to just one remaining trump. This left
the declarer with a second heart loser,
