Honest to Good
ness Snibe Hunt

Saturday evening, several OF the
boys participated in real. old time,
honest to- goodness "snipe hunt" Yes
sir, Barnum was right when he said
there's one born every minute" and
the fellow that added "and most OF
them live" seems to have had his
Judgment indicated. There was on
" one "victim" of course but every
thing went smoothly and worked out
as planned, so the "hunt" was COM
plete success whether any snipes
were rbagged or not.
1t happened like this: Friday and
Saturday the boys did a little mis-
sionary work on the proposed vic
tim,'' whom we will call "Snipe," for
want of better name. He took the
bait, hook, line and sinker after he
had questioned several different ones
in various places. Accordingly the
hunt was arranged, the boys agreed
to meet at $50 Saturday evening and
90 to the river. The start was made
as planned; the ring-leader and
"Snipe carried sacks and lanterns.
Enroute to the hunting grounds, 9TH
er members of the party tried to pry
these two loose from these articles
but they would not let go of them,
declaring that the other members Of
the party would have to do the driv-
ing.
Arriving at the Third street bridge
across the Sank River the leader es
sorted "Snipe" through the boys
along the streams edge and station
ed him in what was said to be an adj
vantageous position, showed him how
to hold the sack and lit his lantern.
Then, explaining that the others
would carry on the drive and that he
would station himself in a good place
close-by. The expert went over quite
a distance, lit his lantern and placed
his sack so "Snipe could not see that
he did not stay along side the light.
Then the leader "ducked" and came
back to town. "Snipe" alone remain
ed in the almost dismal swamp"
Five minutes passed-no snipes
showed up. Ten minutes-not a
snipe in sight. Fifteen minutes-still
no snipes appeared. Finally thirty
minutes had fled and the drive seem
ed to be unsuccessful as no snipes had
been bagged. In fact the hunter
waiting with his sack held in the most
approved manner, hadn't even heard
one single snipe call or quack,
whichever it would be. He didn't
know whether a snipe, called, squack-
ed or sang; he had forgotten to ask
those more experienced in this line of
hunting. His first thought was to
call to the leader and ask him about

AMERICAN LEGION MEETING

The regular monthly meeting OF
Robert James Swift Post No. 81, Am
erican Legion, Tuesday evening, was
lively and it is confidently believed
that it will bear fruit at no very dis
tant date.
The most important matter taken
up at this time was the proposal to
keep the Legion rooms open at all
times. A committee, consisting of S.
P. Hansen Jr., chairman, Geo. Berg
green, Solomon Dewey, Henry Sauer
and Bert Bonner, were appointed to
confer with the Commercial Club and
others on this matter Of keeping the
rooms open with perhaps other
features that would make the rooms
even more popular as a gathering
place for the members.
Several different propositions were
suggested but nothing definitely de-
cided and the committee appointed
were instructed to go into the matter
thoroughly and report to the mem
bers.
Donation to the fund for decora-
ton of the graves of heroes over
seas was authorized as in former
years.

it but on consideration he decided to
60 over to where he could see the
leaders light and find out how his
luck was. He took his own lantern
and sack with him. When he arrived
at the leaders light and found it de
serted "Snipe" desided he had been
stung, but he was good sport and
picking up that lantern and sack al
so, waded and wended his way ta"k
to town, apparently not much sail
der, but wiser at least. He was
greeted by his companions with a
good deal of merriment and joshing.
He admitted he had been the "fall
guy" and laughed about it with the
others.
Sunday afternoon, as he drove
down Main street in his Buick car he
was greeted by calls of Hello Snipe."
"Oh Snipe," "How many snipes did
you catch" and the like. The l,ame
"Snipe" will undoubtedly stick to him
and, as he is tall and slender, like the
birds he tried to catch, the name is
not altogether inappropriate.
eff "Snipe" was in the least dis
sappointed that was because of the
necessary postponement Of the Snipe
supper which was to be held Sunday
evening and which the wife Of one Of
the boys had promised to prepare If
the birds were brought to her.
And one Of the best parts Of the
story is the fact that this all happen
ed on April FOOLS Day.
The snipe hunt yarn goes back be-
yond the memory Of the oldest in
habitant. 1t was probably first
sprung when Methusulah was kid.
