k EXPERT EYE CARE This winter with the odd leiâ€" sure night at my disposal, I haven‘t touched any of them until fairly late last Sunday nifiht. Then it was the young lad who talked me into tieing them. I had been stalling him for several weeks and suddenly he decided he didn‘t want to be stalled any longer. One thing about tieing flies, you 1 was wanting to tie them every time I got in the house. l'-n; the way things turn out. Last winter when Ilgfd not have time to wrap ufl anywhere near the number of flies I needed to, The net catch was, one lamp, two drapes and one rug. Then we, in our turn, were chased back to our den. Ever try to cast in your living room? 1J did last Sunday afterâ€" noon. Being in an experimental frame of mind, I took a 2%â€"ounce fly rod that 1 used a great deal last year, and placed a spinn reel on the but. Then I clenl:s everyone out of the living room. It‘s amazing the way that mono~‘ film fine will slip out lhroufih even the snake guides on a )" n'ugmtrom a good spinning reel. ] Waterloo Rod and Gun Club ATTENTION FARMERS Let us help conserve your soil by .planting trees in your wasteland.

A few of the boys who were at the last meeting of the Rod and Gun Club evidently did not lfie with remarks we made in t week‘s column regarding the lack of discussion. Sorry to disappoint you, but there were just as many who agreed with us. However, your opinion is still your own to exâ€" press as you see fit. Mine is too. not seem to be able to ‘get togeâ€" ther at the same time. Never mind fellows it was a good effort and even the decrease of one fox is going to help the game situation some. We notice by some soâ€"called authorities that the fox is considâ€" ered by them to be more benefiâ€" cial than destructive.

It was a trial and erâ€" ror proposition, with the errors probably oveshadowing the trials. With Frank it was a different matter. In what seemed a matter of minutes, he had the frames cut and before we had actually accomâ€" plished a great deal else, he had the frames fitted into the boat. After this we are going to ask how much a man knows about what we are doing before assumâ€" ing he doesn‘t know anything. _ A Happiness â€" Diamond _ Frank is a mighty handy man with tools and we still remember the time when Bill Foss and yours truly were building a small boat. Frank offered to help, but we, not knowing that he had forâ€" gotten more about boat building than we would probably ever know, had him sit on the sidelines while we blundered ahead with our work. Finally he couldn‘t stand it any longer and asked if he could cut the frames and fit them into the boat. * While our own lack of success in rod building has led us to view any effort by an amateur builder with some apprehension, we will have to take back any aspersions we may have mentally cast on Frank‘s ability, _ â€" The rod feels as though it should have lots of power and is not too heavy. | _ _ _ Frank bought the glued sticks and is plncinfi ferrules and guides and doing all the wrapping and varnishing. _ _ _ â€" â€" Was up watching Frank Moogk working on a threeâ€"piece fly rod he is building, and believe me, the rod looks good. _ _ > years Don Klaehn tells us he has betâ€" ter cottontail shootinf this winter than for a number of years.
