The PLAYING or POINT EucHRE

New system OF scoring In Progressive
and Its Advantage.
Advocates of progressive euchre re
form are now advocating a change in
the system of scoring the game They
believe that the score should be com
puted by points and not by games, as
IS generally done now.
Point euchre, they say, is recog-
nized by euchre players as the only
fair way in which the game can be
played, as each player receives credit
for all points made at each game.
1t can be played at any progressive
euchre. either at home or in clubs.
Excitement begins with the first hand
and continues until the last hand is
played. Many objectionaDie features
of the old game are overcome in point
euchre, as fast playing is one of the
essentials of the game.
A point euchre tally card is num-
bered from L to 40. Each player has
tally card and each receives the
number of points made at the end of
each game.
For example, in the first game at
the head table one couple make 8
points, the other side points. The
cards of those having are each
PuhChSu . anu Tue OIu0T are puACucQ
4. Winners move as in the older
game.
All other players receive punches
for the number of points they have
made, while the head table players
were making their and some play
ers at the other tables may have
made as many as 10 points.
Should the head table players at
any time score more than points
they get credit for all they make over
5, as. for instance, if lone hands are
played to count 4, two lone hands
would make a possible 8.
The head table players should al
ways play as rapidly as possible, to
prevent the other tables from making
high scores. All rules of euchre ap-
ply to this game,
At the end of the two hours play
ing the highest number of points made
would determine the winners OF
prizes.-New York Sun.

early in the antarctic night. One of
the members set it to playing tune
which another one hated and the row
which they started became general.
THE penguins. especially those
which inhabit the continent in great
numbers, remind one of human COM
munity. In endless strings they
walked after each other. With their
black backs they looked at a distance
on the snow like a comical liliputiau
funeral procession. When they dis
covered us they came to us, not know
ing the blood thirst of civilization.
They walked around us, evidently tax
ing down their geological notes about
us and taking us for a new sort of
penguin.
"They came back to their nesting
places at the cape, where their old
nests, consisting of small pebbles, were
still lying about from the previous
year, although somewhat disturbed by
the heavy gales.
"On warm days the male bird stood
erect in his nest, his beak toward the
zenith, uttering series of hoarse
screams, the female listening atten-
lively to his antarctic love song. They
had busy time love-making and nest
making, in both of which occupations
they were studied most attentively by
my bachelor staff.
1--WE ate the penguins from the time
they first came. They were, however,
very blubbery. We boiled them first
then we roasted them and then we
called them ptarmigan and managed
TO eat them with better relish. They
