WITH THE
SPORTSMEN'S CLUB

The boys in the manual training
shop at the high school under
Hayden Steiner's supervision are fast
workers, for within few days after
Robert Winchell, PR agent for this
district, concluded arrangements for
the building of squirrel and coon
dens, the job was finished and the
dens are completed and ready to be
installed in the H. H. Rickly reserve.
Development of the reserve is under
the supervision of Jesse Manages and
the work will be done within the next
ninety days. Six squirrel dens and
two coon dens have been built for
the reserve. The Rickly reserve will
be the fourth to be developed under
the sportsmen's club supervision.
Farmers who like fox squirrels on
their land can do the animals a good
turn by cutting red oak trees and
leaving plenty of white oaks when
getting their winter wood supply,
results of Michigans Conservation
division show. The experiments con-
Quoted to determine the nutrition
value of particular foods reveal that
squirrels thrive on white or black
oak acorns or walnuts and become i'll
on diet of corn or red acorns.
White oak trees were found to
produce the best natural dens as
well as a nutritious food supply for
squirrels, but black oaks, while
furnishing good diet, usually don't
have good dens. Red oak trees
have very poor food and seldom pro-
duce good dens.
The Bluffton Archery Club has

1t. Ivan J. Geiger stationed with
the coast guard in New London,
Conn. has spare time occasionally to
engage in surf fishing in the At
lantic. Our friend "Gondola" (our
pet name for him here at honey says
that such fishing is man size job
for after five or six casts with the
rod the fisherman takes time out
for breather. Geiger snagged a
few nice striped bass, marlin, and
occasionally a sail fish for his efforts
at the sport.
Geiger and his family are located
in a home in a wooded section
bordering the Thames river which
flows thru New London. The stream
abounds with brook trout, German
Brown trout, and occasionally the
natives have been able to catch an
ocean trout in the stream. Ike
says he gets no end of fun fishing
in the river and ocean. On occasions
he and a friend take a boat out for
bit of ocean fishing.
Gondola is an instructor at the U.
S. Coast Guard Academy and Kenny
Alter and Johnny Luginbuhl from
Bluffton have been students in his
classes.
Ivan would be glad to hear from
some of the local boys and his ad-
dress is U. S. C. G. R., U. S. Coast
Guard Academy, New London, Conn.

small end Of the Buckeye quarry will
be felled Saturday morning at 1000.
All club members interested in the
proceedings be on hand promptly.
Tools will be furnished and the pre-
liminary work on the tree has been
completed.
The tree will be dropped into the

area for the smaller fish inhabiting
the rock shelf at the small end of
the quarry.
Discarded Xmas Trees Wanted
A great help can again be given
the club if that discarded Christmas
tree would be taken to the small
end of the Buckeye quarry and toss
ed over the fence. The members on
hand Saturday morning will place
the trees on the ice where later on
when the thaw comes the trees will
sink to the lodges as additional pro-
lection areas.
Notify Silas Diller if you have
trees available and are unable to get
them hauled to the quarry by Satur-

Edsel Ford's Death
Blow to Nation

THE death of Edsel Ford removes from the field
of industrial and national service man who
will he Sorely missed.
He was mortally stricken with illness in the
prime years of life and activity, nj the age of 49,
He was the heir of Henry Ford in more senses
than one.
He had accedcd to the presidency of the vast
Ford manufacturing enterprises while his father
one of the genuses of modern industry and one of
the creators of the American principle of high
wages and low prices through mass production, yet
lived to be his guide and mentor
In the first World War the father supervised
the conversion of his ample factories to war pro-
ducton.
In this World War, the son performed the
same task.
To Henry Ford long respected for his eminent
works and for his patriotic citizenship the IN tion
extends its fullest sympathies in the deep personal
loss which he has suffered with the passing of his
able and only SON.

THE announcement that the government of
Portugal has agreed to allow the British
and Allied navies the use of the Azores for
the duration of the war, is an important mat
ter, and has several implications.
The relations between Great Britain and
Portugal are historically very old. They
seem to have begun in the fourteenth century
with a royal marriage, between the king of
Portugal, John the First, and daughter of
John of Gaunt.
The treaty of Windsor, 1885, completed
the alliance between Portugal and England.
This relation has been repeatedly cemented
by other treaties.
The Importance Of Portugal in European
war; to a maritime power like Great Britain,
found its great illustration in the Napoleonic
struggle. Portugal. invaded by Napoleon, put
herself under the English monarch and the
country furnished the English that great
beachhead on the continent, which was en-
ployed by Sir John Moore, and after his
DEATH by Arthur Wellesley, who became the
Duke of Wellington.
THIS so-caled Peninsular War was major
i factor in Napoleon's overthrow. If now
Hitler, angered by this Portuguese action,
should declare war upon Portugal, again, the
Allies would have another area on the con-
tinent, where armies could be assembled and
from which their attacks might be launched.
But in this present war, Spain is at peace
with the Axis and her territory could not be
traversed. SO Portugal would not be land
ing place from which armies could march to
attack the enemy.
The Germans and Portuguese understand
this. Portugal cannot be invaded by Germany
without violating Spanish territory. The
resumption of this military alliance need not
jeopardize Portugal, while at the same time

had made an official report TO the Senate

Some Of the members of the committee

Several OF the members were especially

had REFUSED to sign it, but their names
were nevertheless attached to it.
Finally, all Of the members of the COM
mittee were amazed because the report had
not been prepared by the committee at all,
but by members of its office staff who have
no authority to make reports TO the Senate
and are not even on the pay roll of the
Senate

vicious procedure.
