Banner Year
For Hunters,
Report Show
1 It's a big year for North Car
olina hunters. They're out in
large numbers, and reports of
kills from all sections of the
state indicate that they're get
ting something besides the trip
out of excursions into the wooas
and fields, according to the
division of game and inland
fisheries.
It's been generally the same
story as each season rolled
around ? more hunters than
ever before for squirrel, in Sep
tember and October, and for
deer and bear, in October. Early
reports on individual waterfowl
and quail kills were on the
smaller side, but the aggregate
kill of so many hunters is 1
bound to be tremendous, and
the coming of colder weather
brought better prospects. At
any rate, the pressure from
hunters is there.
So it looks like a banner year
? one which is living up to ad
vance indications and expecta
tions that North Carolina's
game would be subjected to rec
ord hunting pressure Pre-sea
son estimates were for an In
crease of probably one-third in
the number of hunters this
year, and sales reports from li
cense agents are bearing out
these figures.
REASON
"When the paper says the
bride is 24 and the groom 60,
it isn't necessary to add that
he is considered one of the
richest men in his neck of the
woods."
3 KINDS OF WOMEN
"There are said to be three
kinds of women ? the beautiful,
the intelligent? and the major
ity."
