A peculiarity of thefts of that kind is that they will work only if they are attempted at the very outset of the play. It the declarer waits until he has developed the hand to an appreciable degree, the defender has a better chance to see what he is about and therefore is not so likely to fall for his ruse. whatever it may be. In the beginning, though, he has to guess, and has (l good chance to guess wrong.

Look at this end: See, it has the flower design on the inside, over the kid's head I know, but if both designs are on the outside then those slot things are wrong for the bars Here; turn both the foot boards around That's it.

Now, turn yours upside down Now, where's the catch that holds up the bars? But, gee, Esther, you wanna get those catches right, otherwise the sides will let go and the kid'll fall out on his face. You don't want the kid falling out all the time, do you? Here, hold onto this footboard while I turn the ends around the other way Gee, that puts the flower designs upside down All right, turn yours around again and I'll turn my end upside down. 'THERE! Now these slots seem to be lined up. Now, there must be another piece to go in there, dear; otherwise the gates won't stay up. Maybe they forgot some of the pieces.

What are those eight screws for? Well, get down underu neath and see if you can locate some holes What d'ya see? Well, in that case, we must have the spring hind side before The thing is supposed to slide up and down on these two rods. Hey, Esther! Are you going to help me put this crib together or not? Then, for the love of Mike crawl out from under there Here's a gadget on the spring that-Oh! I got a hunch: Turn both foot boards around the other way and push the spring farther to the left SO these gate things will catch on these two hooks The hell with the design. The kid's not going to notice the design, is he? They give you enough junk with this outfit to build 10 cribs I've got it! The rods go through these brackets and the gate slides up and down on the rods, but we've gotta take the rods off until we fasten the brackets Hey, Esther; unscrew those bars again; we gotta get those rods on first Nuts! The holes for the brackets are on the outside, now. Hand me the screw driver Not the rods -the screw driver! you got washers under the Well, take 'em off--they're the wrong ones Good gosh, Esther! You've gone and put the rods through the brackets How 'd'ya think we're gonna put the gates on, I ask ya! I know, dear, but these gates have to slide up and down and--I can't explain it. Take 'em off, anyway How about these brackets? No, there's two of 'em How could two rods run through one bracket? Use your head a little, dear Screws? Look under the mattress Okay.

Now hold the foot board while I put the screws in Good night! The screw holes are missing. They must be somewhere around these two joints because, lookit, the gates are supposed to slide down as far as the floor when you're takin' the kid out and there's no place near the floor for any holes Nuts! Hand me the bit and brace and I'll bore a couple. THERE we are! It don't slide SO good, but it'll keep the kid in, anyway Now, the casters. Esther Over there with that pile of Junk we don't need All right, raise up on your end while I put 'em in Okay, Let 'er down easy now Now, raise up on this end Aw, nertz! The first two dropped out All right, dear -easy, now Okay! Signed, sealed and delivered: One crib Where do you want it--over there in that corner? In the nursery! Gee, Esther!
