CLEVERNESS
OF REWARD

The Cleverness OF the fox is
proyerbial and additional proof of
the shrewd antics of this animal
is given in an explanation of the
strategy a fox adopts to fool the
hounds who would pursue him
unto death during the popular
hunting season in England in an
article by Alicia Patterson in
Liberty Magazine.
ITO scare up a fox" writes Miss
Patterson. the huntsman takes

day n fox is usually brought into
the open and The fun begins.
The fox is It cagY animal, how
ever. When hounds are after him
he often manages to run until
tired, and then to give the high
sign to one OF his buddies. The
other fox takes up the scent
and the unsuspecting hounds fol
low the newcomer, never realizing
the difference. This goes on until
the exhausted and chagrined
hounds are taken home"
