Here are six prominent rules to fol-
low on your camping trips:
1. Be sure your match is out Break
it in two before you throw it away.
2. Be sure that pipe ashes and cigar
or cigarette stubs are dead before
throwing them away. Never throw
them into brush, leaves or needles.
3. Before building fire scrape away
all flammable material from spot
five feet in diameter.
4. Never break camp until your fire
is out-dead out.
S. Never burn slash or brush in
windy weather
6. Stir the Goals while soaking them
with water. Turn small sticks and
drench both sides. Wet the ground
around the fire. Be sure the last spark
is dead.
These recommendations are made by
the American Forestry Association and
we should be sure that they are OBJ
served at all times so that our forests
will not burn.

The Drum and Bugle Corps in at
tendance of the American Legion Con-
vention at Albert Lea was one of the
main attractions at this colorful gather
ing participated in by forty drum and
bugle corps, innumerable bands and a
hundred or more marching units Of
various kinds.
Advices from Albert Lea were to the
effect that Ely made the best showing
in the convention and carried off the
major share of the prize money for the
events listed. While the papers stated
that Ely had taken the third prize in
Glass B, the facts of the matter is
that Ely secured first but by an agree
ment made allowing the corps to use
the valves on their instruments, Ely
took third.
The judging figures in Glass B were
given as follows: Ely, 876; Sleepy Eye
1913; Pelican Rapids, 812. AS per the
agreement, Ely received the third prize
amounting to $50 in the drill competi-
ton. Both of the other prize winner.

woods The luckless victim would be
taken out to small trail previously cut
through the brush and asked to hold
a sack on the trail while the others beat
the brush to drive the "snipes" into the
sack. The beating would start with
terrific yells long distance from the
victim but would gradually die down as
the drivers returned to camp to await
several hours for the hunter who would
grow tired of waiting with his sack
On his return he would be greeted with
a merry ha-ha from the crew.
So the other evening being unusually
dark was considered an ideal time for
"snipe" hunt by Matty Kapsch who
had forty Boy Scouts at his cabin on
their annual jamboree. Trails were cut
sacks furnished several who had pre-
viously claimed a wide knowledge OF
the outdoors, and the others started the
hunt to obtain meat for the next days
meals.

an older boy, held packsack on a

sack set for moment while he went
to get more instructions in the art OF
snipe hunting from Uncle Matty and
upon returning found large form
struggling in the sack. He called for
help and upon the arrival of several
boys was all for driving large hunt
ing knife through the sack to end all
possibility of escape. But, the boys
counseled, the sack should be taken
the campfire where all could see the
finish of Mr. Snipe.
The boys worked in relays carrying
the heavy sack back to camp where all
formed a circle with knives drawn to
partake in the kill. But alas, when the
sack was opened, out jumped "Nosey,"
Kapsch'S springer spaniel. So, what
promised to be big feast of barbecued
