Interest in Deer Hunting
Mounts to High Peak

Interest in deer hunting will reach a
new high peak in the state when the
season opens on November 18th, ac-
cording to Robert c. Mueller, editor OF
the American Sportsman, a Mime
apolis publication.
That more deer hunters will enter
the northwoods this year than at any
time during the past six years is the
opinion expressed by Mr.. Mueller.
Many sportsmen, especially in the Twin
Cities and the southern part of the
state, have put off going deer hunting
in previous years because their business
demanded all of their attention They
plan to go hunting next month, how
ever, to renew again their hunting
experiences.
This awakened interest in deer hunt
ing should mean much additional
business for resort owners and guides in
the northern part of the state. It is
estimated that at least $4,000 viii be
spent by big game hunters in Minnesota
this year.
The average hunter wants to go deer
hunting very much, but he does net
know where to go to get the best
shooting In order to help out hunters
who are in this predicament, the
American Sportsman viii publish q
Northwest Big Game Special Edition
It win contain information ON dee.
hunting throughout the state and viii
be distributed exclusively to big game
hunters. The publication win be OF
much value in bringing hunters from
the city into this region

Here were living pictures OF the
beautiful, muddled, dangerous
place in which we live-of the
dreams we dream as we battle
the world-of the hurts which
come to us, and their possible
healing. Good books for what
ails all Of us.
Yet all the time, as told
you of them, was thinking OF
another book which has every
thing that these books have IN
them, and infinitely more. Only
it's old. And some OF its Ian
guage is strange.
wondered if you'd care for
it. I do. carry it with me,
wherever I go. It's the only
book that gives me a real un-
derstanding of my world-and
of myself. Maybe thought
it may do that fc you. So I'm
taking a chance. But before I
give you its name, I want to
tell you about. it.

who seem to be able to get
everything there is out OF life.
Only-as always happens
he raised Cain while he was do
ing it. He was always IN
trouble, that man! When there
wasn't any trouble, he made
some.
And most of all he seemed to
have been troubled by himself.
The incredible adventure OF his
Spirit-itS tremendous storms
it's hellish abysses of hate and
despair: it's shining heights OF
pure delight-these engroSsed
him more constantly and poig-
nantly than all his wars and
conquests and secret intrigues.
He was always being enor-
mously glad, or mad, or sad,
about something-and talking
about it with the devastating
frankneSs of a confession maya
zine! He was, in himself, the
greatest spectacle Of his spec
tacular time-a veritable ten,
twent' and thirt'!
This, of course, is why mil
lions of men and women have
loved his book. For we're all
like that-or think we are! And
we would, if we dared, talk OF
ourselves in just that way.
And I suppose this is because
the man, himself, was old when
he came to write it, and so
was able to see life with a wide
sweep. Nothing escaped him
either in himself or the human
scene. And so he set down
such a record of human pas
sion and greed, terror and ten
dernesS, wonder and beWilder-
ment, folly and nobility, as was
never written before.
Of all the volumes in print to-
day I know of no book that
comes so close to the COM
mon human heart-or helps so
greatly in tackling the common
human problem. There are
longer books by better men.
But it is the very weakness Of
this man-So like our own-that
makes his book comforting.
And many a night when I
have felt utterly discouraged
and at a loss to know what to
do with my own life, I have
taken that book and read one
of his passionate confessions
one of those great, fierce cries
for help that he sent up. out
of his hunger and loneliness
anu remorse. And, when I was
through, was somehow COM
forted. Perhaps you will be, too.
The title? You may have
heard of it. It's in practically
every store. The book is called
"The Psalms" And the man
who wrote it was named David.

whole career before We let you

styles, but they steal labels, any,
where and everywhere they can
get them, and stitch them in
their imitation Lanvin gowns.
There are, all over Paris,
style bootleggers, who, in an
hour or two, can turn out a
passable imitation of one of our
gowns. They bribe messengers,
delivering gowns to customers.
It takes them only a moment
to photoStat the gown, getting
every essential of line or design,
and frequently the bootlegged
gown will be sold, for one-tenth
the price, and out on the
street, before the original is
worn.

ObServant ship news reporters
used to note, years ago, that
tactful servants always folded
the coats of the nouveaux richie
with the lining visible. Thus
the world got an eye-full of the
Poiret label, and Madame, back
from the grand tour, was not
displeased. There were two
French words which Madame
was sure to know-haricot verde
and Poiret. They sufficed-
particularly Poiret. On a gar

which makes news, and, thus
wrenched from the context Of

believable that the great Poiret
is dependent upon charity.
France, somehow, seemed to
have found something immutable
in the fame and artistry of it's
great coutouriers, something car
ried over from the renaissance
and the empire, something i'm

its genius for design, and subtly
it impressed on the world the
belief that the only worthwhile
distinction lay in French gowns,
in French fabrics, in some in
imitab1e trick of line or climatic
effect which only the French
could master.
And for centuries the world
has believed them. But little
man, what now? Do their
gowns and their coutouriers be-
long in that limbo of "bag-
mems delights" which their own
Taine ridiculed so Savagely?
There's nothing frivolous in the
