Yup, I have actual ly beep bull-frog hunting for the first time this year, and I sure did have a good time at it, too. Well, as I was about to expostulate, we left here about nine o' clock that night, and got into a boat at the lower end of town, and boy, it sure was some boat. Leak? No, the water just poured in by the bucket ful. Anyway, we got start ed down the River, and nary a frog was to be heard for a while. Well, we just eased along the bank, flashing our light all along, and after a while we spotted one a darned big one at that. The boat was gently pushed into the bank, while the light was held in the frog's eyejs all the time, and when we got close enough to the frog, the fellow in the bow of the boat lean ed 'way over, and, holding the light full on the frog, he grabbed him and held on and take it from. ..... ..... , Vi yuu nave to neep a ini good grip on those slip pery brethren to prevent their escaping. Said frog being caught, he was handed to me, and it was up to yours truly to do the dirty work kill him and put his hind laigs in a bucket. This accomplish ed, we started out again, and by this time, we could hear several of the big frogs "hollering-Tiddwn the River. Well, we kept drifting along until we, - wv -TJ:--'..' 'V v-. Pasenger$ent ? i t had gotten six of - them (six legs, I mean) and then decided to fish awhile, which we did until eight een fish lay in the bottom of the boat. By that ijime, it was getting up into.the wee hours, so we decided to call it a night's work and go home, the other fellow taking the fish, and I the frog logs. Ate the legs for breakfast later on in the morning, and I am here to tell you that they were something good. Yum, yum ! Hope I can go "frogging" again some time soon. I've taken up my Koluni this time with the bull- . frogging trip. I didn't in tend to write so much bout it, but I did write it? and that's that. Riding Their Hobbies SnniA nennle think it is cruelty to catch fish with a hook, and this sarnie class of people think it is murderous to hunt wild game. In recent legisla tive sessions there have been meas ures introduced to prohibit tne use or riflps in certain States. Very few persons ride a hobby as hard as that, but there is a steady demand in marty sections of the country seeking to curb the use of firearms. A recent bulletin of the American Game Pro tective Association reminds us that "thp founders of the Governmlent realized that experience and intelli gence and the use of firearms is an important factor for the public safe ty." and while the bulletin does not debate the subject of restricting the use of firearms beyond the question of their use for hunting, it points out the fact that the man who goes hunt ing armed with a public license,' is entitled to carry the best kind of firearms that he can obtain to suit his purposes. Manifestly, says the Association, that class of measures which affect the use of firearms so as to restrict hunting:, are "improper and unwarranted," to rvhich state ment all Federal and State game, offi cials lend their sympathetic approval. PAPA'S LETTER I was sitting in my study, Writing letters, when I heard: "Please, dear mamma, Mary told me, Mamma mustn t be istirbed. But I'se tired of the kitty, Want some ozzer fing to do, Writing letters, is 'ou, mamma, 'Tain't I write a letter too? Not now, darling, mamma's busy; Run and play with kitty, now. No, no. Tsmr.ia; me write letter; 'Tan if 'ou, will show me how, I would paint my darling's portrait, As his sweet eyes searched my face Hair of gold and eyes of azure, Form of childish, witching grace. But the eager face was clouded, As I slowly shook my head, Till I said, "I'll make a letter, Of you, darling boy, instead." So I parted back the tresses, From his forehead, high and white, And a stamp in sport I patted, 'Mid its waves of golden light. Then I said, "Now little letter, Go aay and bear good news." And I smiled, as down the staircase, Clattered loud the little shoes. Leaving me, the darling hurried, Down to Mary in his glee. "Mamma's writing lots of letters; I'se a letter, Mary, see." No one heard the little prattler, As once more he climbed the stair, Reached his little cap and tippet, Standing on the entry stair. No one hearci ihe front door open, No one saw the golden hair, As it seared o'er his shoulder, In the crisp October air. Down the street tht baby hastened, 'Till he reached the office door, "I'se a letter, Mr. Postman; Is there any room for more? Cause 'dis letter's doing to papa; Papa lives with God 'ou know ; Mamma sent me for a letter; Docs 'ou fink 'at I tan go?" But the clerk in wonder answered ; "Not today, my little man." "Deim I'll find anozzer office, Cause I must do if I tan." Fain the clerk would have detained him, But the pleading face was gone, And the little feet were hastening, By the busy crowd swift on. Suddenly the crowd was parted, Saople fled from left to right; As a pair of maddened horses, At a moment dashed in sight, No one saw the baby figure, No one saw the golden hair, 'Till a voice of frightened sweetness, Rung out on the autumn air. 'Twas too lata a moment only, Stood the beautiful vision there, Then the little- .face lay lifeless, Covered o're with golden hair. Reverently they raised my darling, Brushed away the curls f gold, Saw the stamp Upon his forehead, Growing now to icy cold. Not a mark the face disfigured, Showing where a hoof, had trod, But the little, life was ended, "Papa's letter Was with God. Copied and sent in by f . j Bora Waldroup, Bluff, N.
