tract was four spades, \ inferred that
the bidder probably had no hearts, so
he led the Jack of diamonds At an.
other table A led the hearts. In each
case went game. as b came back with

At one table A thought II safer to
make every trick he could and led the
ace OF clubs B playing the nine en-
couraged him to continue with the queen.
When z won with the king and led the
trump B was able to lead two winning
clubs, and the jack of trumps in AS
hand could not be caught This saved
the game. although a led right up to
the king of his tenace suit.
At one table at which the hand was
played at five hearts. Y had the lead, as
A had first named the suit. Instead Of
making his sure trick first, which would
have get the contract by getting home
three diamond tricks, Y led his part
ners suit, and \ went game by getting
one diamond discard on the fourth club,
after drawing the trumps.
At the other table. played at five
hearts. led the tenace suit. Y played
the eight OF diamonds. and went on.

SCHOOL FOR CARD PLAYERS,

ie trumps a spade with the king, and
ueIds $50 with the ace ten Jack and the
'ther club king In his hand. b bets he

What difference whether A trImped
with the king on the table or the one in
lis hand? He has to meld before he
travis from the pack. The old queen is
good for the greater meld.
IT. W. s. says: Playing two hand, A
e $50 up when he wins a trick. uelds
20 and calls out. b bets he must win
mother trick TO make the meld good.
B ia wrong The trick taken made the
following meld good.
c. X. says: Playing two hand, the
meIds being all UP, A bets tho second
hand must head every trick IL he can.
bets only when trumps are led.
A Is correct,
v. n. Y. asks what Is meant by n
double deck as differing from a single
deck at plnochle.
All pinochle packs are double, in the
sense that they contain duplicates OF all
the cards. but the manufacturers put
UP the duplicates. down to the sevens
and Fights. under a single carton, and
sell it as a pInochle pack.
=. F. @. says: We are playing three

and plus method. AZ the end tho re-
suits show that b IS SEQ plus. A Is 1G0
minus and c is 400 minus C insists
that the two losers simply pay B, and
that 400 Is the most c can lose. b
maintains that c also owes 4 something.
How are such scores usually adjusted?
The skat method Is the simplest but
It gives a double result. II this is
halved. supposing tho play Is for a cent

The California Fish and Game Com
mission tells what to do when the deer

IL and make fast.
To skin a deer head for mounting cut

Then cut along the upper side OF the
neck to the top OF the head Thence
make diagonal cuts. one to each horn.
Cut OF the ears close to the skull,
turn them inside out, and cut away the
fully around the eyes. Cut the lips close
TO the skull, leaving them attached 10
the skin. Split them from the inside and
I'LL the cut with salt
Rub plenty Of salt into the flesh side
of all parts of the skin and let II dry
slowly in the shade or roll 1t up hair
side in and ship at once TO a taxiderne'
To butcher deer hang II up by the

BIRD SEASON OPEN
HERE AND NEARBY
Field Sportsman Points Out
How Easy 1t Is to Over
shoot Target.

Tho season for migratory game birds
ducks, geese. brant. coot. gallinules.
black bellied and golden plovers. yell
lowlegs. Wilson snipe and woodcock. Is
open through the New England and Mid
die States with the exception OF the last
nnmed bird upstate, where the season
closed on Friday
The quail and ruffed grouse season Is
open in New Hampshire. Vermont. Mas
sachusetts. Rhode Island, Connecticut.
Long Island and New Jersey. In Maine
the season Is open for ruffed grouse and
In Pennsylvania for quail. The season
upstate Is closed on both these birds.
Introduced pheasants may be shot In
Massachusetts,. Rhode Island. Connecti-
cut. Long Island, New Jersey and Penn
sylvania. 1t is closed upstate and in
tire other OF these group of States.
In Pennsylvania the wild turkey may
be hunted.
1t is the view Of a field sportsman
who has devoted much time to bird
shooting that a bird may be readily
overshot when II is flying straight away
and perfectly level In consequence OF the
line OF aim being so very short. He
says:
The gun comes TO the shoulder noint-
| ing but a few inches beneath the target,
and II brought up quickly there is prob
ability that II travels above the bird
while the trigger is pressed.
The problem OF the shooter here Is to
start his line OF aim sufficiently below
the mark so that the finger can receive
fair warning before the time comes to
, null
Another shot often going high is when
the bird rises to some little elevation and
hen drives away with towering fight
be fore the aim is certain
zone of the most troublesome shots in
upland bird shooting is when the bird
rises near the gun TO a height of 25 or
80 feet and then goes on level

Fish Lines for the Young
The Timid Fi.h.

The sucker IL by nature mild
And simple as a newborn child.
HE tiny mouth is pink and round,
And In his gums no teeth are found.
Yes plump OF cheek and soft OF IN
And hasn't much, II any. chin.
or courage he has not a spsrh
And therefore Is an easy mark.
In spring n he escapes the net
Designing boys are apt to set
He may be living In tho fall
The biggest sucker Of them all.
He'll keep on tapping UP each day
The mushy stun that floats his way,
But soon or late he's bound to draw
The fatal morBel to his NAV.
When caught he makes but little fuss
And doesn't seem to care a cuss.
Then why, dear children. should We mourn
When every minute one IL bornf
The suckers. though of ssv'rai kinda
Are all possessed OF shallow minds.
And are absurd, as you may see,
And timid TO a hish degree.
OF all the suckers that exist
The largest IL the pacihst.
asst season he was taking hold,
But now he's very shy. I'm told.
