sands. of sportsmeD who find pleasure
and pastime in cunning. but it can boast
of many followers of NimrOd who have
enviable regulations for true sportsman
ship and marked ability with their fowl
ing pieces. True, there are really but
two kinds of game found to any extent
within the limits of the District of Column
bia. namely, marsh birds and duck but
these are almost always plentiful consid-
erng the comparatively small area over
which gunnerS are allowed to follow the
sport, and the conditions are exceptionally
favorable. To the resident of Georgetown
the marshes of the upper river on both
the District and Virginia shores and sur
rounding Analostan Island just opposite
the boat landings offer good ground which
is easy of access. The thickly growing
river oats on the west shore of the Eastern
branch afford an attractive spot for large
sections of the flocks of the migratory
reedbird5, ortolan and occasional focks
of ducks to stop over on their long flight
to their winter homes in the warm
southern wetlandS and huntsmen always
find good sport in this locality. The sport
furnished is good not only from the view
point of large numbers of birds which
feed on these marshes. but also in view
of the short distance to be travelled to
get TO the scene of activities.
Dogs Are Not Used.
There is little or no hunting in this To-
calty with dogs. the reason for this being
that the bearded ends of the wheat work
into the skin of the dog or through the
soft pads of his feet and disable the
animal permanently. While there is some
hunting done by men who are satisfied to
follow the more strenuous system OF
"muddng." which consists Of wading the
edges of the marshes where the water and
mud-mostly mud-are not more than two
o. three feet deep. the majority of the gun
ners paddle canoes. SkifS or light flat
bottom craft, which easily slide over the
loose mud or weeds. This latter method
is naturally the more ideal form, since 1t
eliminates practically all the unpleasant
features of the sport and affords safer
place for Tie temporary disposal OF the
game than DOS tie traditional game bag

birds on one tide AS a matter of fact
the birds are so numerous this year that
ortolans could often be knocked over with
a stick. but the reedbirds generally fly
over the hunters heads in tiocks-thus Of
fering an opportunity for better dis
play of. craftsmanship.
Reedbirds leave with the cold weather,
but the rail remains until frost comes.
The sportsman. therefore, must make
good use of his chances if he would have
a satisfying share in the shooting The
far -fam.I canvas-back duck Is occa-
sionally bagged here, but it is not often
in evidence. the bagging generally taking
place in the imaginations of jovial hunt
erS who wish to make their fellows feel
jealous of their marvellous achievements.
Other ducks, however, are found in fair
ly good numbers. AS many fifty have
fallen before a single gun in one day.
but it is safe to presume that it was no
amateur sport who placed such bag
to his credit Among the varieties of
duck most common on the Washington
marshes are the teal. mallard and rudy
duck. All furnish excellent sport and
though there is great divergence of
opinion as to the one which is most
palatable, the teal seems to be more high
ly priced possibly because it is not so nu-
merous the others. Hunters class the
teal and mallard grass ducks. while
the rudy duck affects the open water ana
can often be shot while swimming around
looking for food
The Months for Game
Aside from marsh shooting there is
virtually no other kind in the District. 1t
is forbidden by law to shoot rabbits, quail,
grouse, wild turkey. doves and deer. The
open season for squirrels is short. 1t
opens November and closes on the 1st of
February During the months of October,
November and December Westinghouse
may hunt deer in the District. And
that's about all they can do-hunt it. Tn
less they take trip to the Geological Park
they can't even shoot one with a camera.
In the case of cunning for squirrels they
would be compelled to go to the same
place or to the parks about the city before
they saw one. and then to even shoot at
one with bean shooter is a violation
of the law.
But there are other haunts well known
and we'll beloved by members of the
Washington shooting fraternity, who dur
ing the different seasons leave thoughts
and cares behind. pack their guns and
ammunition and a few hunting togs into
a neat kit. and take train for some Sc
cluded spot far from the madding city
crowds.
For those who have the good fortune TO
belong to a club with a clubhouse the

menu ana TICKLE the
palate of the bon vivant
The city of Washington con-
tains hundreds, perhaps thousands. of
enthusiastic spOrtsmen who love nothing
better than TO take their guns and go
after reed birds and ortolans, finding them
almost at their very doors. To many, I'M
acquainted with local conditions, 1t seems
like joke TO speak of the game laws
OF the District OF Columbia, but there is a
full set of them, and those governing the
shooting of ducks and smaller birds are
rigidly enforced.
Long before September comes there is
furnishing up of guns-old guns and
new guns, muzzle leaders and the latest
things in hammerless contraptions-an-

who are not fortunate enough to own
some sort of craft are likely to find it
necessary TO do some active skirmishing
and perhaps pay smartly in the bargain in
order to get out with the crowds on the
marshes.
The season opened here under more
gratifying conditions than for several
years back. Not only were "reedies'' and
ortolan unusually plentiful but the add

members of the local fraternity of MINI

goodly number. Another factor which be-
tided future bags of large size and
made glad the hearts of the hunters was
the careful policing OF the marshes and
the consequent absence of breakers of
the game laws. This resulted In allowing
the birds TO get well settled and forget
their fright, which latter condition Is
perhaps more conducive to good marsh
shooting than any other one thing.
Although it is not widely known, except
among the men who supply the hunts

not only boast OF hundreds, perhaps thou

like a healthy little animal.
Some people wash the hair with tar
soap after an egg shampoo, but the
plain egg is cleansing and leaves the
hair much softer than II soap is used
with It
Should the use OF grease on the face
have tendency to produce superhuous
hair 1t may be checked by mixing spir-
its Of camphor with the grease or by
occasionally rubbing it over the skin.
To relieve choking break an egg in
cup and give to the distressed one TO
swallow. The white OF the egg seems
to catch around the obstacle and re-
move 1t. If one egg does not answer
the purpose. try another. The white is
all that is necessary to use.
No child should begin toe dancing
