Canvas Does Not Update Text Until Closed Out Of Game

Unity Engine
1

I have a text component that is changed in my script, however the change does not appear on the canvas until after I stop running the game. How do I get the change to appear at runtime?

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using UnityEngine.Networking;
using System;
using UnityEngine.Networking.NetworkSystem;
using UnityEngine.UI;
public class Player : NetworkBehaviour {
    public Text turn_count_drop; //assigned in unity
    int turnCount = 0;
    [SyncVar (hook = "ChangeMyTurn")]
    public bool myTurn = false;


    void ChangeMyTurn(bool value){
        Debug.Log("CHANGE MY TURN CALLED");
        turnCount += 1;
        Debug.Log(turnCount);
        turn_count_drop.text = turnCount.ToString();
        myTurn = value;
    }
}

I get the “CHANGE MY TURN CALLED” and turnCount messages in console.

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using UnityEngine.Networking;
using System;
using UnityEngine.Networking.NetworkSystem;
using UnityEngine.UI;
public class Player : NetworkBehaviour {
    public Text turn_count_drop; //assigned in unity


    void Update(){
        turn_count_drop.text = "dog";
}
}

This similarly does not update the text on the canvas.
