l thlnk-perhaps-th l could have

There must be some reason for the
game laws, or they wouldn't exist"
you're funny one. Come three
thousand miles to hunt and then pass
up the first deer you see. You could
almost have been your grandfather,
to have done that. He thought killing
deer needlessly was almost as bad rs
killing man. They are beautiful
things, aren't they?"
Dan answered him with startling
emphasis. But the look that he wore
said more than his words.
They trudged on, and Lennox grew
thoughtful. He was recalling the pic
ture that he had seen when he had
whirled to look N Dan, Immediately
after the deer had leaped from Its
bed. 1t puzzled him little. He had
turned to find the younger man in a
perfect posture to shoot, his feet
placed In exactly the position that

take years to learn. Dan had seemed
TO know by instinct. Could 1t be, after
ALL that this slender weakling. even
now bowed down with a terrible
malady, had inherited the true from
tersman's instincts Of his ancestors?
The result of this thought was at
least to hover in the near vicinity of
n certain conclusion. That conclusion
was that at least few Of the char
acteristics of his grandfather had
been passed down to Dan. 1t meant
| that possibly. IL time remained, he
| would not turn out such a weakling,
after all. OF course his courage, his
nerve, had yet to be tested; but the
fact remained that long generations

just opened. and it might be that Dan
would want to procure one of these
creatures.
But I'm not sure l want TO hunt
deer" Dan told him. You speak of
them as being SO beautiful"
"They are beautiful and your
grandfather would never hunt them,
either, except for meat. But maybe
you'll change your mind when you see
buck. Besides, we might run into a
lynx or a panther. But not very like
ly. without dogs"
They trudged up, over the carpet OF
pine needles. They fought their way
through thicket Of buckbrush. Once
they saw the gray squirrels In the tree
tops And before Lennox had as much
as supposed they were near the haunts
of big game, a yearling doe sprang up
from its bed in the thickets.
For an instant she stood motionless,
evident that she had heard the sound
of the approaching hunters, but had
not as yet located or identified them
with her rear-sighted eyes. Lennox
whirled to find Dan standing very
still, peering along the barrel Of his
rifle. But he didn't shoot. The deer,
seeing Lennox move, leaped into her
terror-pace-that astounding run that
is one of the fastest gaits In the whole
animal world. In the wink Of an eye
she was out of sight.
"Why didn't you shoot?" Lennox de-
manded.
"Shoot? 1t was a doe, wasn't it?'
Good Lord. of course it was doe
