Jump-Heads. When a story is continued from one page to another, a head called a jump-head, or "run-over" head, is placed above the continuation. This jump-head may be either the top deck of the head at the beginning set in the same type or in smaller type, or it may be a new head. Examples of jump-heads follow: (1) First Page Head
