PROVED TO BE POOR EUCHRE
PLAYERS

An exciting game of Euchre was
played last Sunday at Remy, La,
between Lucien Haydel, Manager and
Thomas Landeche General Manager
of the Longview Planting Company
as partners and Antoine Haydel and
Robert (Bob) Haydel, as partners.
Ten interesting and very exciting
games were played out of which our
good friends, Messrs. Lucien Haydel,
and Thomas Landeche were able to
win only one game.
Our mutual friend, Mr.. Antoine
Haydel visited our sanctum as we
were about going to press and was
elated over this grand game.
Lucien and Thorn. may be very good
planters but they certainly proved
themselves poor as Euchre players.
Another big game is scheduled for
the near future by the same players,
and the idea of this second game is
to give Lucien and Thorn. their re-
venge.
We sincerely hope that Messrs. Hay
del and Landeche will make better
showing in the next game, although
all indications point to the contrary.
Antoine assured us that they would
not win . single game.

Improvement of Rural Schools.

| The General Assembly of Virginia
session of 1920, passed an act, which
"nlle 1t does not require uniform
Term OF nine months, it does pave 'he
way for longer term in rnrai
schools. AS 1t is purely local mat,
Ter for each community to say to wha'
extent Its school term should be in
creased, petitions were sent recently
TO all rural schools in Shenandoah
County. These petitions request the
School Board of the District in which
particular school is located TO
grant term of eight months instead
OF seven for the session of 1922,
and also request the supervisor from
that District to provide the necessary
additional funds. In these petitions
the patrons OF these several schools
pledged to continue their children in
school through a term of eight
months.
In all thirty-nine rural schools
have returned these petitions signed
by patrons of these schools. These
schools are fairly evenly distributed
throughout the county.
1t does appear that the time has
come when there is a strong sentiment
in many communities on the part Of
patrons in rural schools for longer
term. This favorable attitude will
likely guarantee reasonable at
tendance for such term. The sew
eral District School Boards are In
clined to grant these requests where
the petitions express the ajority
will of the community on condition
that the supervisors will provide the
necessary funds,
1t is manifestly unfair TO the child
in the rural school to require him to
try to do in seven months an amount
OF school work which experience has
shown throughout the whole country
necessarily requires nine months for

was commended that the law adopted
by the Board of Supervisors was not
in force, because the Legisl ature had
since amended one section of the law,
making the distance for the removal
of cedar trees two miles instead of
one and that the amended law had not
been adopted by the Board of Super
visors and therefore no law was now
in force.
The court decided that the law Is in

The Fruit Cr0n

The cold weather on Monday ant
Tuesday nights has greatly damaged
the fruit crop of the Shenandoah Val
ley. The entire crops such as peaches
cherries, piums, early apples, &c. are
declared by many to have been en-
tlrely destroyed. The reports about
the late apples vary considerably,
Some assert that with the exception oil
4orks, Janettes, and old time wine
saps all are entirely destroyed, while
others are more optimistic and declare
that They have carefully examined
their orchards and that while thew do
not expect full crop, they do expect
good crop of apples of fine quality.
In TACT no one can speak positively
until after the June drop. The loss
In this section is variously estimated
from S200,000 to several million dol
lars.
