Going Too Far,

At a school exhibition a juvenile
elocutionist got up to recite the first
piece Of his life. He was ambitious.
He wished to make great success Of
his piece, and he had been told by
his teacher that the secret Of elocution
was the gesture-for every phrase its
fitting gesture. The opening line Of
the boys selection was, 1.-THE comet
lifts its tail Of fire." The overzealous
boy, to fit its proper gesture to this
line, lifted up the tail of his coat and
held It out in a horizontal position.

more until we reached Bristol, where
we waited ten minutes. My old gen
tleman rubbed the side window with
his coat cuff, in vain. He attacked the

and then, Young lady, would you mind
my putting down this window?
"'Oh, no not at ALL

"'Never mind, sir
Immediately down went the win
dow and out went the old gentleman's
head and shoulders, and I said. oh,
please let me look
"'Now, you will be drenched.' he re-
monstrated. But he half opened the
window for me to see. Such night:
Such a chaos of elemental and artificial
lights and noises l never saw nor
heard. He drew up the window as we
moved on. I leaned back for some
minutes with closed eyes, then opened
them and said, We'll. have been
drenched. but it was we'll worth it.
"He nodded and smiled and again
took to his steady but inoffensive pc.

FEATHERED GAME PLENTIFUL
AND HUNTERS BAG THE LIMIT
By FRANK o'DoNNELL

Hunters who spent last Sunday on
the marsh areas bringing down ducks
and those who were in the fields and
brush trying for limit bags of quail,
while successful in point of achieve
ment, had a hard day of it. Sportsmen
lying in blinds exposed to the hot sun
came back to the city sunburned and
those who tramped over the uplands
shooting quail returned to the city
footsore and weary, looking more like
cross country runners than successful
nimrods.
With better weather conditions
promised for today the number of
shooters out should be larger than a
week ago. for both kinds of game are
plentiful and hunting for snipe and rail
is also profitable pastime in many
places.
The Suisun marsh was the most IA
vored ducking ground for city hunters
last Sunday and the sport remained
good on the subsequent days of the
week. Despite the hot weather limit
bags were obtained on nearly all of
the preserves on the marsh, the ducks
having finally worked back to the bait
ed ponds from which the rain at the
first of the season drove them.
