Any player bidding out OF turn, loses
the privilege of bidding for that hand
The successful bidder takes the three
cards of the widow into his hand and
afterward discardS any three cards he
pieases in their place No one is al
lowed TO look at these discards-
After discarding, he leads any card
he pieases. and is not obliged TO pitch
a trump first. The winner Of one trick
leads for the next. and so on. Each
player i'm turn must follow suit if he
can. as failure to follow suit when able

When "A revoke is claimed and proved
the hands are Immediately abandoned.
II il il an adversary Of the bidder who
has revoked. the bidder scores what he
bid and neither of the adversaries can
score anything for the tricks they have
won
Il the bidder himself revOkes, he is
set back the amount of his bid. and
The Anniversaries score whatever tricks
they have made.
Although the bidder cannot score any
more than tho amount Of his bid, no
matter how many tricks he takes, un-
less he wins them all. every hand must
be played out because every trick
counts 10 points for the individual
player winning il. no matter what the
trump suit is.
II the bidder wins all ten tricks, he

scored.
Suppose A has 400 on the slate and
has 400. and that A bids six on dia-
monds and makes it. he is out, even if
3 has won two or three tricks worth
10 points each This is in accordance
with the principle of all bidding games
that the one who takes q risk shall
have the advantage of the first count
This rule prevents a player who IS

X. M. White returned Tuesday
evening from months outing at
Highlands, n c., and says he has
been greatly strengthened by the
trip.
Capt. S, NJ. LaBree returned on
Sunday from pleasant outing of
several weeks in the mountains of
North Carolina, his headquarters be-
ing at Highlands. Capt. LaBree has
enjoyed his trip very much and had
the somewhat rare pleasure of catch
ing some speckled brook trout in the
mountain streams The brook trout
is probably the gamiest fish known
and is as savory as gamey.
Leonard Reeves terminated his
visit with his parents, Rev. DR.. and
Mrs. Reeves, last Monday. He is a
locomotive engineer with headquar-
tiers in Birmingham, Ala, but has
been rendered position with the
Florida East Coast R'y and may de-
termine to accept it in order to be
nearer home. On his return to Biz
mingham he stopped over for a day
at St. Augustine to make enquiry
concerning the character of his pro-
posed run in Florida.
Chas B. Morrow, one of the most
practical as well as successful orange
growers in all this section, states
that in all his experience with or
ange trees he has never known the
trees to put on such heavy growth
of wood as they have during the past
few months, and the end is not yet,
for the trees are still growing vigor-
ously. Mr.. Morrow states that while
the fruit crop may be small this win
ter, it will be all the larger in an
other year by reason of this vigor-
Gus growth of the trees.
The News has been advised of
three families now living in the vi
entity of Seville, who propose to
move to Crescent City just as soon
as we establish our high and graded
school, This is only the beginning
of what we expect to hear in the
event that this school is established.
With a high grade-school here, Ores
cent City would become the educa-
tional center for a large territory
and many families would move to
the place. There is no one avail
able thing that would more conduce
to the growth of the town than this
graded school.

The School Election.

Tomorrow will occur the election
to determine whether or not cleo
ton precinct No. Will be made a
special tax school district.
This is an issue that deeply con-
Germs every citizen of Crescent City,
and is not, as some suppose, of in
terest only to parents of children of
school age. Every one wants to see
the town grow, A good school here
will do more toward bringing set
tiers than any other one thing that
it is possible at the present time for
the people to secure. A majority
vote of the qualified electors tomor-
row will put us in the way of seeur-
ing this school.
The election will be held at the
Auditorium. The polls will open at
s a. m. and remain open until 6 p. m.
There will be one ballot. On this
ballot the voter will vote % For or
Against the special tax district, CD
for the three trustees-C. l.. Cham
berlin, J. j. McGrady, A. P. De-
Wolf, and (3) the levy of Il special
tax of two mills for the support of
the schools.
Who can vote? The law says:
Sec. III. All qualified voters resid-
ing within the territory sought to be
made a special tax school district.
THAT PAY A TAX ON REAL OR PER
sONAL PROPERTY shall be entitled to
vote in said election and a majority
of the votes cast shall determine any
matter voted upon, pertaining to a
special tax school district. p"
The News trusts that every quail
fed tax payer will make it a point
to vote in this election and-vote for
the upbuilding of our school.
