BRIDGE

Cards were first played by the
Chinese centuries before Marco Polo
and other white adventures visited
the Orient. Late in the 18th CEN
fury cards appeared in France after
having been brought to Italy a CEN
fury earlier.
Card playing is a universal game
but Bridge is the American version
of the English game of Whist as
played the Crown Coffee House in
London. Here occasional disputes
brought about the establishment,
about 1743 by Hoyle, of rules for
playing the game, hence, According

don't know much about the game
but as I. understand it, IL is played
with small pieces of decorated paste
board which are equally divided
among the four players. There are
a lot of bids, tricks, trumps and
tallies tangled up in it but the in
trepid players always get across the
bridge to the next table.

Cleveland, Ohio, few weeks ago,

LAND BANK LOANS IN CECIL

Federal land bank and land bank
commissioner loans made to Cecil
County farmers from May 1888 up
to July this year amounted to more
than 100000, according to state
ment today from e. p Crider, vice
president of the Federal Land Bank
of Baltimore.
A total of 271 loans have been
made in the county in the 3-year
period since the Farm Credit Admin
istration was organized. While farm
ers here and elsewhere in the State
used most of the money to retinance
their old debts into long-term loans,
a larger proportion of loans is now
going to finance the purchase OF
farms.
The Federal Land bank loaned
Cecil County farmers 100000 on
first mortgages in the 3-year period.
and loaned $306,600 from funds of
the land bank commissioner on first
and second mortgage security.
Commissioner loans, first authoriz-
ed in 1888, were made in amounts
not to exceed rs per cent of the
appraised normal value of the prop
erty. These loans were used almost
entirely at first for emergency re-
financing. The Farm Credit Act of
1885 authorized using them to re-
finance farm purchases with the
idea that this would give many
farmers, particularly young men and
tenants, a better chance to buy
farms. Experience, equipment, and
a reasonable down payment are re-
CURED
Since the act was passed, Mary
land farmers have obtained over
$1O,O5O, 900 from the land bank and
commissioner to assist in buying
