to get caught anywhere else than on
the water on a foggy night, and they
had made their flight for the day.

had less than a handful of shells left,

were the only missiles left.
We picked up in the fog just six

Booster to the invalid, 1T was up in
the Dakotas late in the fall amid the
sloughs and wheatfelds. The geese
spent the nights on the water and
then searched the wheat stubble for
grain during the day, starting in at
daylight
Well, luck was against US and the
geese kept so far away that we could
not have reached them with a 3 inch
gun. Jim liked a little limburger now
and then for lunch. and I told him the
geese had good noses and his linn
burger had spoiled the day for US
never knew how Jim came by his
Dutch streak that every now and then
broke out into a craving for limburger

it came from I don't know But it
was fog, and no mistake 'Honk,
Honk, Ionk" came the cry of the
bewildered geese. and before we knew
IL a string Of phantom winged shadows
passed us. More honks in the near
distance. The geese were using the
swale as sort of runway or flight.
And we now were ready to begin to
shoot at the feathery ghosts as they
sped along the foggy air but a few
feet above our heads. Only now and
then, by hitting a bird in the head and
killing it stone dead in the air or
smashing a wing did we manage to
drop one. We banged away and the
geese just kept on and disappeared
into fog and nothingness. And then
we began to guy each other as the
'Honk. Honk! Honk" kept sounding
and the black headed. white necked
ghosts sped past us on swift and noise

our guns and now and then a goose
would drop. 1t is good we had no

following 1t, came to the farm house all
right, thing we would have had diff
ficulty to do otherwise in that fog.
1T was some time until dinner and
as 1t was cold and damp, we preferred
little fire on the ground rather than
remaining in the farmers cold and not
over interesting parlor. So we gath
cred some corn cobs and waste wood
and soon had bright, pleasant and
comfortable bonfire going in the open
and away from everything. And then
we got talking again and Jim got

and roasted me good and plenty for
my meanness, while, as a matter of
fact, 1 had bought fresh shells and If
the powder was old and worthless it

more cobs and wood while Jim hugged

the ashes and dirt and charcoal that
flew up when that shell went off. and

and spluttered and blown his nose and
rubbed his eyes 1 said, Jim, that
powder is all right I see it Isl says
he. and then Jim just let out blue
