TUB COQÜTLLB TALLET SENTINEL, COQUILLE, OREGON, FRIDAY, AUGUST 4, 1»S3. PACK SIX OUT-OF-DOORS STUFF By L»na Leneve Another interruption occurred in this writing as an Arkanaaa kingbird perched himself upon the limb of an apple tree just over the fence. He’s quite adit tie stranger around here, be ing the first one 1 have glimpsed for some time. They are a friendly little bird as far as humans are concerned, out are usually rather quarrelsome with other birds. Their favorite peren is upon the dead limb of a tree or atop a polo, where they sit for hours at a time watching for insects to fly past. When an unfortunate insect happens along the bird loaves his perch, snap, -he insect up and returns to his perch. These birds are gray backed, brownish oreast and have a small yellow patch an top of the crown. They are seldom ■eon in a wooded spot but frequent »pen country. There is one thing in the game law. that I wouldn’t be afraid to wager that <0 per cent of the sportsmen are un- amiliar with and that is pertaining to shooting migratory water fowl with a ifle. Each season sees a lot of hunt- ■rs gunning for ducks and geese with -2 rifles in various parts of the state, inch season here in our local marshes ame hunter gets “cussed” out of the marsh by whistling bullets across the water in the near vicinity of other aunters. And each season sees many s hunter out at different pointe of the -ompass banging away at a flock of reese with a high powered rifle. And now many of them realise that they are violating the federal law when they fire a rifle at a duck or goose, whether said bird ia roosting upon the water or way up in the vicinity of Jup- ter or Mars. But such is the case. A reader inquires if it is true that a aw has been passed whereby it is un lawful to hunt with a ten-gauge shot ;un. The answer is no—not in this itate. In several states in the union his law has been enacted but you can still use your old ten-gauge in Oregon, >ut nothing larger than a ten. The >ig eights and sixes have been barred. The day of the big bore is gone. Even be 12’s are being discarded by lota of iportemen for the smaller and lighter 16 and 20 gauges. See you again next week and in the meantime don’t forget the dog stories. I »lipped a »heet of paper in the old typewriter about half *n hour ago and prepared to dash off thia week a ¡ mu * of Out-of-Doors-Stuff for you, but before I got started a little Anne humming bird came to the flowera just outside the window for hie regu lar "morning’s morning" and I be came so absorbed in watching him that I forgot to write. I could have stretched forth a hand and torched him he was so near. On poised wtnjf» or I Should spy whirring wings, he poised above the flowera, dipping his long bill into them, sipping nectar or gathering in a small spider or in sect; his wings whirring so fast that they reminded me of the propel er of an aeroplane; while the sun strik ing upon his brilliant plumage brought forth all the colors of the rainbow. Flying to a nearby wire he alighted and rested for a few secondi« and then returned to the feast. Some how I never tire watching these little fellow». Traveling like a bullet they can halt yvithm a space of inches without any seeming effort, and a target rifle in the hands of an expert marksman ia no more accurate than the flight of one of these wee birds. Traveling at a tremendous rate of speed they will unerrinnlg dart be tween the meshes of a wire fence with only a scant inch or so to «pare be tween the meshes and their wing spread. A humming bird is the smalt est bird in the world but in that small body of theirs is stored enough ener gy for a bird fifty time, its site Their*homing instinct “vre™,r^*b.1* and they migrate from the North South Americas as well as from eastern states to that point. Take it all in all, little friend humming bird is one of the most interesting of any of the feathered tribe. Did you k.now that a frog doe« not breathe? He doesn’t. He swallows air If submerged in the water long enough he will drown; every so often he must come to the surface forair He never drinks water but absoita through the skin.

Sport Briefs (By Mark Seeley) À BANK REFLECTS THE LIFE ABOUT IT Loans and Investments on Which Condition of a Bank Depends Determined by the Kind of Business Surrounding It City Life Reforms Sparrow A member of the French Academy of Medicine, celebrated his hundredth birthday anni'-ervary by rending a pa per before that body, covering the ob servations of sparrows. He said: “The country sparrow and the city «irnrrow are close blood relations, and the i-oun- try sparrow Is rightly detested for Its voracity and evirWsys. But the little sparrow of Paris haa completely changed Its character. Pampered and spoiled by Its human neighbors. It has become a lovable, elieery comrade whose presence adds a pleasure tb.our walks and outings. City life has given the sparrow refinement nmt culture and made It a wholly resia-ctable and agreeable member of society."

Or there may be bore also signs that reflect growing unfavorable conditions, such as excessive loan renewals, over enthusiasm and therefore over-expan sion ot credit exleuded to makers or dealers In particular products, and alm liar circumstances. Similar conditions apply to banka engaged In financing the activities of tho securities markets. *Tl»e. foregoing Is merely suggestive ot the Infinite aspects ot the life out wardly surrounding the banks which form and control their Internal condi tions. Although these facto seem obvi ous enough, tbe discussions and criti cisms that have raged about tbe banka often appear to aet them apart as some how separate from the lives ot our peo ple, casting forth a malignant Influ ence upon agriculture, industry aied trade from forces generated wholly within themselves. "The truth ot the matter Is that the tale ot the banks Is inseparably Inter woven with the fate of the rosi of the people and ot tbe nation. Witat lisp pened to the country happened to the banks and what happened to tbe banks is In no way different or detached from what happened to the people. They are all part ot tbe same pattern, of the same continuous stream ot events. No one element in that stream can he called tbe cause of business depression. "It the banks caused trouble to some ot our people It was because they were irresistibly forced to pass on troubles tbat came to them from other people. These troubles Impaired the value« of their securities and rusl-imera’ notes— and rendered some unable. In turn, to pay back to other customers their de posits that had been propeny used to create these loans and investments. Unless these truths sre kept continual ly in mind there is no sn h thing as approaching an understanding of the banking problem or of properly safe guarding the very heavy stake of the public in that problem." League play in the Southern Oregon League will be concluded on Sunday, when the Coquille Luggers, top club of the circuit, meets Roseburg in the Umpqua county metropolis in a game which might cause an upset. If the Veto should defeat the locals and Klamath Falls should win in her game with Medford it would send the three aggregations into a triple tie I for the top rung. Manager Fortier is not expecting I his Loggers to taste defeat, however. Last Sunday the club ahowed much strength in defeating the Klamath Falls Pelicans and, though the line-up for the concluding fray may not be as formidable, it is expected to easily vanquish Roseburg. Roseburg is not under the management of Red Rup pert now, though the lineup is the same which faced the locals in pre vious games, with the exception, of coarse, of Hal Turpin, who is now pitching exceptional ball for the Port land Beavers. Fortier haa announced that a three- game series has been scheduled for the Labor Day holidays, the Salem Senators offering the competition.
