BY KID UNDERWOOD

Mister Bill Beeman, local insurance man and one of the handsomest in mates of the American Legion club, also holds the title of Champion Rab- bit Hunter of Cochise (pronounced "Ko-cheese; not "cock-eyes') county. Brother Beeman claims to have hunt ed rabbits for F years without ever killing one.
 Rabbit hunting, says the champ, is a gift. The more you hunt rabbits the less bunnies you plug, he says.
 But read his own Hints to Hunt CTS" as he told them to us yesterday after requesting us not to tell them to the sporting editor or any human being:
 AS it is impossible to carry a can non around, every rabbit hunter should have a shotgun and some shells for it. If you want to hunt rabbits, just go look for some little field or meadow where there are g lot of rabbit tracks. Stand in the middle of it and assume a pose some thing thusly:
Bisbee daily review., 1920-11-18

As the rabbit runs across your gun-boats you should not forget to drop your shotgun in the excitement or, more often, in the mud. It will then explode enthusiastically and with great avidity and the detonation will bring to the scene d peevish Tancher. If he looks unusually grouchy. he is a Democrat and you may save your neck by immediately denouncing Senator Harding. If this fails, however, move your right hand toward your empty hip pocket, regis ter intense surprise, and then say: Why, l wonder where 1 dropped it"
 While he is watching you fever ishly, do correct right-about-face and head double time inf the general direction of home. Always make sure you run faster than he does. and if any rabbits get in front of you, kick 'em out of the way and don't let them catch you either. This is how I do

Bisbee daily review., 1920-11-18

"AiJer ieaving him Denmd and reacnlng the road, stop to get your breath and then start taking paths that you will never go hunting again. If you have friends waiting at home to give you the ol' razzberry if you return without any rabbit carcasses it is easy to avoid this. Just walk slowly along the road with your eyes on the ground. Pretty quick you will run over the body of at least one rabbit that has tried to knock tliv- yer off the road. Pick this up. Brush off the aust from the furry form and take it home. Just as you get in sight of the gang, lift up the rabbit hold it proudly over your head and tell 'em you only had time to get one, and killed him with your revolv- CT while he was running away from you at distance of 5000 yards. They won't believe you, of course. but be ing called q liar is the best proof that you are good hunter but poor shot.

WANDA HAVlEyaM Miss Hobbs
REALART PICTURES

Which shall it be-which shall 1t
be-a career or a husband? That is
the question thousands of girls are
asking themselves. Miss Henrietta
Hobbs emphatically preferred the
career, and her career included per-
suading other women to give UP their
perfectly good lovers and husbands
and beaux to live the free life. 1t
is a painful fact to record. but Miss
Hobbs was a manhater. Hating men
was more than a mere prejudice with
her-it was an obsession, a mania;
persuading other women to her point
of view was her mission in life. I'm
fortunately for all her plans, Miss
Hobbs was very beautiful-so beauti-
full that at least one of the mere men
she despised SO much determined to
win her love In spite of her prejudice.
How he tanned this delicious little
shrew is disclosed in Miss Hobbs"

Wanda Hawley. which comes to the
Crescent Theatre today.
