Twisting around, I crumpled him with my right barrel and then fell off the log I had been standing on when he flushed. Tar had brought three Woodâ€" cock back I had killed in that dense short stretch of bush. As she upfuendy did not like the taste of these little birds, retrievâ€" ing of them was always done on the gallop and probably averaged in time about two minutes from the time the gun cracked until she placed the bird in my hand.

The partâ€" ridge, she would circle around to come up my right side, just. so she could hold the bird a little longer. Either way it was nice to watch her bring them in. Bill‘s intentions were to bust a couple of partridge if given the opportunity. There have been a lot of birds and reports coming in to us indicated there were more than ever this year. If anyone knows the local coâ€" vers, Bill does, but the partridge evidently didn‘t feel like coâ€"operâ€" atin~ During the whole day Bill says ue heard one bird and that one flushed so wild he didn‘t even get a glimpse of him. Bill Foss had an interesting weekâ€"end with the birds, but not the kind he started out to hunt. Several local hunters have hag the same experience and are now wondering if the birds have taken to rabbit holes to stay out of the way of hunters. oo To a lesser degree we had the same thing happen to us in the Lions Head district. There were more birds, but they were in such thick cover, it was almost imposâ€" sible to geta shot when they were flushed. Frankly we think the birds are in the covers, but are Social Evening and Dance Waterloo Rod and Gun Club OCTOBER 24 SATURDAY, OCTOBER 18â€" â€" 2 P.M.

Things have now developed to the point where Ott claims he is going to start fishing for suckers Doesn‘t sqund as lhuuf)h t:ey are catching many Rainbows. The peculiar part of so many hunters being without dogs is the fact that training a dog is a lot of fun. Each dog is as much an inâ€" ‘divndual as people. They learn things differently and have all the peculiarities of humans. Even some mongrels can be taught to be good hunting dogs, the main thing bein;h that they like to reâ€" trieve and ‘have a good nose to go along with their natural inclinaâ€" tions. Lands and Forests are still pretty hot after some of the local nimâ€" rods who insist on shooting long after the halfâ€"hour leeâ€"way grantâ€" ed after sunset, and before they can see in the mornings. . h It isn‘t only the shooting that bothers the boys trying to protect our game, but the fact that most of the birds killed jin these dark hours are left to rot Few of the shooters we have met have dogs with them, and the few dogs we have seen are of duâ€" bious value. A well trained dog is worth his weight in gold to a man who hates to leave a bird in the bush or swamp. If you want to increase your hunting pleasure a hundred fold, buy yourself a dog and get busy training him. There is no time like the present to start. to Rotary Carnival.

Seems Vain Effort I have more than a sneaking suspicion that not enough people know very much about the scope of the Waterioo Recreation Comâ€" mission; and that includes officials along with everyone else. To hope that a majority understand the place of Municipal Recreation activities or the philosophy beâ€" hind them, seems sometimes, pretty much a vain effort. â€" Robert Hofstetter, Leslie Fulâ€" cher, Beth Habel Janet Grimes, Joyce Bullock of Mrs. Lederman‘s class. \ Recreation Needs Space â€" â€" Among Other Things Sharon _ Henderson, _ Kenna Smith and Margaret Lamonte of Mrs. E.

Indeed it has been reâ€" peated so often that I begin to ‘feel that I am underestimating the ability of people to compreâ€" hend. Or am I? The advertisers of almost any known manufacâ€" tured product pound into the ears, minds, eyes, hearts and the very souls of potential customers the names and qualities of their proâ€" ducts. Day in and day out, night after night, by radio, the printed page and now by TV, they drive home their points until sometimes we must buy their wares subâ€" consciously or because we can think of only one kind of product, having had all the rest shut out y the constant pounding of sales propaganda. .

A Rally Day service was held in the Plattsville United Church on Sunday morning when promoâ€" tion exercises placed the pupils in their classes for another year. Following is the list of pupils with 90% attendance, who reâ€" ceived a Robert Raikes diploma, this having started a year ago: Must "Tell Story" We use "The Waterloo Chronâ€" icle" and the "Kitchener Record" on every excusable occasion to tell both the story and the philoâ€" sophy of Recreation. We publiâ€" cize otherwise as far as our funds permit. It is not the thousands who enter into the activities whte need to be told about the needs. They know because they work and play under the very inadeâ€" quate conditions. We must, someâ€" how tell our story to the rest so that everyone will be looking for openings to the end that Municiâ€" pal Recreational plans may not become more bogged down than they are at the moment.

Meets Peopic‘s Needs The W.RC. was instituted so that all the Recreational activities of the community could be strengthened and maintained at a hjih level of performance and volume. This was done mostly as a measure to meet the needs of people who found that working hours had decreased and more free time left them with the probâ€" lem of what to do with their newâ€" ly acquired leisure Sgorv.s, both for the participant and the specâ€" tator, form a very small part of the answer. Only when every other avenue of human interest by all orfiamzauons even remoteâ€" ly related to the worthy occupaâ€" tion of leisure, are functioning efficiently and coâ€"operatively, can a community claim that recreaâ€" tivnal services are being properly performed. If it were not for organizations and individuals now giving space for some of our activities we would be even more hardrpressed than we are. Three groups meet in private homes. Two meet in the Board room of a place of busiâ€" ness. One is handicapped because Need Space Our crying need is space. Not new space or new buildjggs. but space in buildings already pubâ€" licly owned and supported. it is poor economy for any space to go unused to its fullest capacity. Uniess buildings need rest, and maybe they do, we should have them performing full functions just as we expect people to do. Six days out of a week or six months in a year is too much rest for any publicly owned space. No business concern would tolerâ€" ate such a condition much less think themselves able to afford the onâ€"going cost. e we see clearly, or do it can find no place in which to meet when it should. The Youth Centre is more improperly housed than any I have seen this side of bombedâ€"out Britain. What‘s The Solution? What‘s the answer: Maybe you can ts{]l me? However, I can tell you when the answer will comeâ€" when we get the story of the vaâ€" lue, the quality and the volume (the last is always the most efâ€" fective) of the W.R.C. told to enough people who can underâ€" stand it and have a copviction that takes active form. And by the wayâ€"have you any room you can spare for a craft or a club? We can use it. en mt D krkigGl tss Loo [ . # o El * ELE EeE CANADIAN ARMY **~ _ & ACTIVE FORCEAMe/ 3% Poorlyâ€"Handled Advertising _ Blamed for Small Audience The "Kanadischâ€"Deutscher Kulâ€" turâ€"Ring", Toronto, last Friday, presented the German â€" comedy "Familie Hannemann" at the Kâ€" W Collegiate auditorium.
