On the hunted. haunted faces, on the folly

But its heart is like a cavern. and its face

And it's sky so fills with sasiight that he

in which to hide, during the day.
The geese were so plentiful that the

Hunters are there from all over the
Northwest and thousands of the
fowls are being killed.
Pendleton people returning from
Arlington say the proper way to hunt
there is to take along n camping
