There was a day laborer who was a genuine optomist. One day he ) tramped three miles to his back-break ing work in a ditch. Then he discov ered that he had been very careless. To a fellow-workman he explained, “Now I’ve gone and done it! I left my lunch at home.” Suddenly he beamed happily’ and added, “And it’s a good thing I did, for that matter, i because I left my teeth at home, too!” SQGLOWJj \ 1 / i ( C w) i- You know, none of oa can achieve security and well-being completely on our own.

C„ THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 1954. Listening to commentators, reading news and columnists, it is easy to be 1 persuaded that there are only thorns tin this world. Many of us are too j I ready to accept the remarks of these “prophets of doom” as the final word. \ We are aware, painfully, of only the' thorns. Instead of wailing about the 1 thorns, each of us must look for our • roses. Others cannot find them for) us. We must seek them in every) thorny situation. It takes effort, yet j they can be found. Reach for them. Gather them close. Enjoy their frag- 1 rant beauty and be glad that thorns have roses. Definition Teacher Jimmie, what’s a penin-j Isula? Jimmie—A rubber neck.

It is strange, but memories and es timates of the size of big game almost J always err in the same direction—ex aggeration. Not that sportsmen are j chroic liars. It’s simply that we all J have a bit of the artistic urge that | makes us want to add a touch of color here and there to make interesting things even more so. This kir 1 of artistic decoration, go j ipg on generation after generation, j has made the job of sorting fact from i fiction in big-game records nearly as tough as straining frog spit out of a frog pond. Bigness in big game is generally )!i f-d in either of two ways: by live |or dressed weight. Live weight really means dead weight, with entrails and other parts in place. And dressed ' weight means that the critter was un dressed of such parts. | Various formulas have been devised 'for estimating the approximate live weights of dressed specimens or of j ) figuring the dressed weights of un- i ! dressed game. For deer, it has com ) monly been calculated that one-fifth of the live weight is lost in dressing. And | conversely, you add about one-fourth of the dressed weight to get a rough * idea of the beast’s heft when alive and kicking. Such schemes, however, are far from exact, even when adapted to particular species. For one thing, as pointed out by biologist Alexander D. Martin in an article in Sports Afield magazine, the amount of food in an animal’s stomach varies a good deal from time to time, and this bars the way to any accurate method of trans lating one kind of weight expression into the other. An interesting tmng about deer is the way their size tapers off as you go south from Canada. There are some 20 different kinds of deer in this country and most of them differ in I GO THRU 'V# . •• , HR TO I PHILADELPHIA I -HEW YORK i«v, W--'- ■ /^RAILWAYS SI accomac §j| ■ Thru Bus Service via Eastern ||l§| Shore Route through Cooperation ||p| Elizabeth city of Norfolk-Southern Bus Corporatiop ■' ■ Leave Edenton 3:55 P.M. 8:36 P.M. |l||| £j j Leave Eliz.

While northern whitetails average about 150 pounds (big buexs sometimes going as high as 400 pounds or higher), their relatives in the south generally run considerably smaller. The nearly ex tinct Key deer of Florida weighs from about 40 to 75 pounds. The Coues, or Sonora, deer of the southwest aver ages about 75 pounds, and in Mexi co there are varieties that weigh less than 40 pounds.
