BE GOOD NEXT TIME

My friend Harry jackson is not a
good card player He admits this
game is billiards. But that was no
reason why his partner at bridge one
evening last week should read the
riot act to him every time Harry
made a bull.
After a particularly sad play the
Fostering partner finally turned upon
him with grasping teeth:
jackson, why in thunder didn't
you follow my lead?" he yelled.
Harry was getting little peevish.
eff follow anybody's lead" he re-
torted, believe me, it'll be anybodys
but yours!"
His partner snorted and subsidized.
But, In the next hand, after an mex
cusable bad play, he threw down his
cards in desperation. -.
"For the love Of Mike, Jackson"
he cried, didn't you see me call for
a spade or club? Haven't you any
black suit at all?"
N"Sure," came back Harry, with a
delightfully."- annoying yawn, "but I'm
keeping it for your funeral!

NO ACTION TAKEN

Application for Franchise Out
Hermitage Road Referred
to Special Committee.

Yielding to emphatic protests of sew

Gems, the Henrico Board OF Supervisors
yesterday declined to take definite ac-
ton on the application of the Virginia
Railway and Power Company for a
franchise to extend tracks out Her
mitage Road from the Fair Grounds
to the a. j. Hill Monument. The
chief opposition came from a commit
tee of Lakeside citizens, who demand
"a straight cent fare to the city and
a delegation from Ginter Park, which
is empowered TO fight any PROPOSE

along Laburnum Avenue.
Other representative citizens were
before the board In behalf Of the en-
tension and made hard fight for tho
franchise. With the three opposing
elements unable TO reach any sort of
agreement among themselves. mem
bers of the board considered that il
would be extremely unwise TO make
any decision without an investigation.
Therefore, a committee was appointed
TO meet the company engineers and
thresh out the situation with than
and report back TO the board.
Demand 5-Cent Fare.
While the Ginter Park citizens fear
that the loss of the L.aburnum Avenue
line would depreciate property values
in the suburb. the LAX eside delegation
is not considering that phase at all
IT demands a straight 5-ccnt fare. and
IL does not care whether the cars are
run through Gintcr Park or around
the Fair Grounds. Lakeside people
fear. however. that the latter plan. if
carried out. will not relieve the sit

The company favors tho Hermitage
Road route because with the Lakeside
traffic and the rapidly increasing
patronage from the factories in the
vicinity Of the Fair Grounds. 1t will
be possible TO put on fifteen minute

keep that stretch of track in operation
