IND|CAT] |ONS ARE SCHOOL TAX WINS
Few Representative Boxes Heard From Show 5 To 1
 Ratio In Count

Reports from representative boxes in Jefferson county communities Tuesday evening indicated that the 3mill school tax election will be car ried by heavy majority.
 Trussville reported 57 for and s against. Inglenook's total was 30 for and against. irondale was about the same, 31 for and against. The vote at the waterworks' box was re- ported as for and 4 against, but incomplete.
 From Warrior the report was that the tax was being sustained at the rate of four 10 one.
 There has been practically no cam paigning in the election and rein statement of the tax has been con- sidered a foregone conclusion all the time. No additional tax is imposed: an old tax, the time limit of which was about to expire, having need of being reimposed.
 From the funds derived from the & mill school tax, much of the i'm provement that has been going on in the Jefferson county school system has been carried on.
 General estimates of the final count by county officials and other interested observers, Tuesday, was that the voters would reimpose the tax by their votes at ratio of four to one, or more.

TERRIER OF THE STREAM
Black Bass Gamest and 1rickfest or
 All Fish, Anglers Find

The black bass will practice more unexpected schemes to free himself from the hook, and is much trickier than the trout. The black bass and the bull terrier have many traits in common, and indeed the bass Is an aauatic terrier. When the bass feels the prick of a hook his whole na- ture asserts itself and he distinctly exhibits the fact he Is mad. His en- tire cumulative qualities rise in re- shellion and he makes the line hiss through the water in his savage struggles for freedom.
 Every trick device at his command is exerted to the limit He will run around stumps. dive under rocks, shoot into the air, shake himself
 throw his whole weight upon the llne, and dart in every direction until he frees himself or succumbs to eXhaus- stion. Nothing that lives will make a braver and gamer fight than black bass, and when he surrenders 1t IS certain that he is completely done for.-From the Sportsman's Digest.
