Great Shooting Over Duck Deeoys.

fOSdils. -NeD.. fNi''- SAW j
The editor Of this slapjack had a
great experience Thursday morning
We were on the old slough south OF
town gain we we're in a nice blind bv
the waters edge. and the sun was
crawling gently IN. Look over there to
tho northwest. See that black bunch
rolling down from the northwest
about twenty-five yards high and COM
ing like an arrow out of hades.
They're ducks! See them come in
those live decoys!. Their wings are
set and they drop to within few feet
OF the water and over the decoys they
come! about thirty of them. Gee.
they are bluewing teal! AS they hang
over the live decoys for second with
their little yellowish colored legs
hanging. ready to light then we
switch the oil dautomatic shotgun in
their direction and bang! bang! bang!
At the first load seven went down;
two at the second and four at the third
load. What's that right off north there
81 bout a mile away? Ducks, as sure
as fate! Why, they are big fellows. and
coming right this way! They turn a
little to the south 800 yards away and
then they come on again. See those
long necks as they make the turn?
They're pin-tails, about fifteen strong
with an old light colored drake in the
lead. In they come. See their heads
go back and forth: looking here and
there for ducks or hunters! They gee
the mallard decoys; now hear the old
drake pin-tal talk to his followers!
Tr-tr-tr! Tr-tr-tr! Now they are over
the decoys, thirty yards away! Bang!
bang! bang! bang! Just got seven Of
'em out Of that covey. After picking
up the dead and retrieving the cr1pples
we just 60 into the blind when three
blue bills shot over the decoys and
started away. Bang! bang! bang!
Missed them clean the first two loads
and killed one the last shot Well:
What is that noise? A-u-nk a-u-n-k,
aunk! Seven Canada geese as az sure as
honest Bill Conneally is a lawyer.
They are coming right in to the de-
coys. But. In our anxiety to get COM
pletely hidden, We fell out of bed and
We never got DANCED goose.
