A HUNTING TRIP.

Mr. Editor:-Up in our neck of the
woods live many people of different
races, class, ages and elementary
degrees, etc. But the three nimrods
that went hunting. We will designate
as A. B. and C. all meaning manhood
in age, size and probably in mind.
Now the young men have been go
ing and going to school. They have
passed Baker comprehensive boyhood
and sleepless nights. In fact they are
in high school reviewing history,
geography and viewing the opposite
sex sometimes. Well to come to the
great hunting trip that was formu-
lated in the minds of these hunters
trappers or students or young men,
and was brought about in this way.
On or about the first week in Feb
ruary there was considerable ice and
snow and the ground. They could not
attend school They helped their little
brothers trap snow birds, sparrows
and occasionally a wren.
Well after butchering many of the
aforesaid flocks their minds began
to long for larger game but where tc
find it was the question.

donned their hunting coats landing in

They asked several people about

seven miles out. By some means they
and a big cop were talking about
something, the farm I guess, anyway
the cop sent them to the Sheriff The
Sheriff located the farm and secured
conveyance for them and their artil-
lery, of course it was costing them
money all the time, but what was
that compared to killing wild duck,

course vastly different and yet there
are certain simi1arities.
The small boy carried usually sup
ply Of fishing tackle, some string and
a hook or two and often a dead angle

The woman's fishing tackle is differ

ADVICE WELL WORTH TAKING

Really Was Wasted.

driver tried .valiantly to keep it in

wheel slipped over a little. the driver
tried to stop the boat" the rear
wheel slid along the car ,track-well.
auto drivers know the rest.
When the car stopped sliding its
two rear wheels rested against the
curb and IT'S two front ones were on
lie car track. Then ensued much
speeding up Of the engine and much
w.,izzing of rear WHEELS, but no for
ward movement.
"Whnt's the. matter; trying to get
away from the curb?" a bystander
asked.
ooh. no, I'm polishing the pavement
50 the kids can have some fun" sar-
castically exclaimed the driver of the
cur.
"Well, II you'1 just cut that engins
down and slip her out Of high into
low, ri give you little shove and
you'll walk right away from the curb"
the interl0per said.
The advice was followed, the wheels
ceased their mad whirl and the car,
under the gentle urge Of the bystander,
moved away.-Indianapolis News.
