PROVED TO BE EXPENSIVE

Hope has q number of sports
who enjoy hunting all kinds OF
game, especially ducks. When the
duck season was just starting one
of our nimrods was told that q
flock of ducks had lit In a pond
near Hope. He hustled his gun and
was soon sneaking on the pond, his
nerves all strung ready for quick
action.
When he thought he was within
reach of any game on the pond he
cautiously raised his head, his gun
at his shoulder ready for action,
and peeked through the tops of
the weeds at the pond. There, on
the placid bosom Of the pond sat
a number of the largest "mallards"
he had ever seen. He was so ex-
cited he Just blaEed away without
taking much aim, but he killed two
big fellows and started after them,
when he discovered he had shot In
to a. flock of fine tame ducks and
slain the prides OF the flock. The
hunter settledl the damages with
