ATCHED WITS
I have matched wits with a p shy mink or fox and finally Beched the conclusion that they in think like a person. I found ut years ago that one has to ink like an old, wild gander in rge of a flock and rig out ac- prdingly to have any consistent ess hunting wildgeese. It ap- ies to more then geese. Years when I farmed I declared ar on the English sparrows that sisted in occupying the nests the eve swallows. I had a sin- shot B.S.A. 22. cal rifle with a 6 hole peep and wind gauge. It weigh- | approximately 7 pounds and accurate to a hair at 100 rds if sighted and held right. An old cock sparrow thought like a human. As fast as I one wife he returned in a or so with. another until ree were accounted.for. I let le 4th one alone and concentra- on her mate. I'd hide the in the barn but the minute door started to open he van- I studied him and found, Achilles, he had one weak bot. While I was at dinner he'd prch on a support left on the arn roof from shingling and tell ie to go take a jump in the ike all through dinner. I don’t ind telling that he really got nder my skin. RIED STUNT I finally thought up a_ stunt iat I figured would work if I wuld shoot straight enough. Mid- ay between the house and barn as a huge i willow ee where I kept the truck wag- m out of the sun when not in se. I rigged up a rifle rest and lade a small opening in the leaf sreen that gave me clear vision his perch. I sighted the rifle r 40 yards and left it in the aggon. I told my wife to call me t exactly noo for dinner but rot | make any fuss when I didn’t low up. At 11.45 I scared him way from the barn and then ipped under the willow and ‘awled into the waggon and lin- j the rifle up on his perch. Five inutes after the call to dinner ame he was on his perch sing; g his hymn of hate. I si n the black spot on his breast nd on the trigger. I got nite a thrill when he fell from is perch and bumped down the of to the ground. The bullet it dead centre. There was also twinge of regret when it was i over but I prefer swallows te nglish sparrows anytime. He ire was a cagey customer but s 4th wife proved his undoing. aking care of her was routine. gmetimes I think that if our iidlife could talk we’d learn a rt.

W GIVE, IT WILL BE THE LEADER
crowning touch to as fine a year in hockey as the town of Sum-
yeors.
Two years before we had won a title, but the truimph was # bit tainted. With the help of Char- lottetown talent we were able to beat one of three evenly matched Charlottetown teams, and that one not the club that played in the Maritime playdowns. For two years the powers-that-used-to-be had a severe attack of hero wor- shin of the athletes along the Hillsboro. Even Thane Mann was in danzer of losing his fob. For. tunately just when it looked as if they might be considering hir- ing a Charlottetown water bov. and retovehing the bluclines with Cenital City paint, the season ended.
Last winter, the Aces minus Charlottetown talent beat ‘“‘the cream of the crop.” Under the guidance of the old’ vro Clar- ence “Windy” Steele, it was dis- covered you didn’t have to go east of the Prince County line to marshall a team of champ‘ons. This, of course, was known as far back as the days of Chick! Gallent, Jack Schurman, and) Ralob Sillichant, bu‘ apparently was forgotten over the vears.
While we were attending the Ace banquet, Cane Traverse and the Summerside Legion were plaving a regular leacue game} of softha!l. which the Cane Tra-! verse team won bv the score of 95 Harold Leard pit~hed his team to victory over a club that missing the regular players were attending the banquet, had to call in reinforcements who were a little short on exverience.
