Every time It opened. at every step
in the hall, she would start, while her

Finally he arrived and took a seat

no answer. Finally they began TO de-

THE c. o. D. MAN.

that a spelling school was being held and
made bold to walk in. Nearly all those
present were farmers and their wives and
children, and. though some of EN- looked
askance at me, wasn't bounced out.
Soon after l got in they began TO choose
sides. but they couldn't come out even.
One sid had 50 and the other 81, there
being many present who did not care to
participate. The one side tried for five
minutes to even up on numbers, and
when it failed to find the odd one l rose
up and offered to fill the breach. For
about a half minute there was the deepest
silence, and then everybody yelled at once.

book. Everybody felt good natured after
the laugh, and I was chosen out of a spirit
of fun.
"Orthography is something that doesn't
change, even if men do. and l had a feel
ing that / could take care of myself. In
the lines were two school-teachers from
other schools and a lawyer and a doctor
from the nearest village, and the words
began to get hard before anybody went
down. 1t surprised them a good deal to
see me hold up my end, and at the end Of
half an hour a bluff old farmer who had
been carefully following me rose up and
said:
'Feller citizens, 1 want to interrupt
the harmony of the occasion long enough
to say that I'll bet a 2-year-old steer

Nobody took the bet. but from thai on
all eyes were upon me, and the teacher
who gave out the words seemed To be
after my scalp. In As minutes only three
OF us were left, and two minutes later 1
stood alone. Then the teacher went
right through the spelling-book huneag
for tough knots. but he had to give up at
last. l got a heap of applause. as you
may guess, and a dozen different farmers
invited me home to stay overnight, but
I wasn't through with my game yet.

TRUMP LED FROM FIVE OR MORE.
AN EXPERTS ANSWER-APPLI-
CATION OF THE ELEVEN RULE.
ITS ADVANTAGES IN SEC
4OND HAND PLAY.

Recently a Dayton correspondent
asked the editor of whist his opinion
on the proper lead from the following
hand: Jack of clubs turned south,
west to lead. West holds clubs ace,
queen, 8, 8, 6, 2; diamonds Z; hearts
6. 4, 2; spades 10, Z, 5. The question
arose in actual play. At n table
west opened with the ace of clubs and
followed @ith a low club; at the other
table west opened with the 10 of spades
At the first table east and west made
four tricks; at the second table east
and west made eight tricks.
The answer will surprise a good
many of the swagger minister's who
read this column, and who are in the
habit of leading ace of trumps from a
holding of five or more. But here's
the answer:
Vests proper lead is that he should
have led his fourth best trump. That
the Jack is turned is no reason for
leading the Ace or for avoiding the
trump lead altogether, and we never
favor a short plain suit lead in the
dark, just because the strong trumps
happen to be headed by a tenace.
