Aaron Grigsby came out on s
hunting expedition last week. He
started out bright and early one
morning with boon companion
and accompanied by two smaller
bows with huge game sacks to bring
home the game. Orders were left
for preparations to be made for s
nice bird pie for dinner. For
awhile the hills aud fields resounded
with their constant firing, and
everything WAS in readiness for the
bird pie-except the birds. About
noon the two small boys returned
home, thoroughly Disguised, with
three little robins, and after so long
a time the two hunters ventured in
saying that they didn't believe il
was good day for hunting, any
way"-and SO it seemed.

venture out over them during the
long dry spells next summer, any
how.
