Montague. 10 Commandments For Real Sportsmen | Hunting - Season Can Be Fun or Prove Very Tragic I The hunting season is often nl j most as dangerous to the hunter as jit is to the hunted. County Agent I !C. W. Overman cautions that with j more hunters in the field than ever ; I before, common sense should bo tbo j by-word in handling guns and that ! consideration of tbo rights and J safety of others should always be observetl. Mr. Overman points also to this ! j important reminder—the tnto hunt ler displays both sportsmanship and; 'safety. Ho knows how to use the; right gun for the right game. He! -hunts only in season and does not, (take the limit unless he can use jthe meat or trophies. For bird hunting, the hunter j (takes a trained dog to retrieve j !cripples. He puts out campfires and cigarettes carefully, breaks matches before dropping thorn, and j . in other ways shows that he is “us- j ing his head.” The County Agent calls attention : to these “10 commandment-" of the j time sportsman: I.—Treat every gun as if it Wen-1* loaded. - 2—Carry only empty guns, taken j down or with the action open, into j [your auto, camp, and home, 2 - Be sure that the bam ! an,l; faction are elear of 1 obstructions'. 4—Always carry your gun so that you can control the direction ! iof the muzzle, even if you -tumble. : b— Be sure of your target he ifore pulling the trigger. t>—N'ever point a gun at any- I thing you do not want t,, shoot. 7 Never leave the gun unat tended unless unloading it first. 8— Don't climb.a tree or a fence with a loaded gun. ;)_ Don’t -hoot at a flat hard -ur- , ; face or the surface- of Wat.-r. lit— Do not mix gunpowder and al eohol.
