By Lana Leneve ■ t A man who Is well versed upon any particular subject can talk upon such a subject intelligently, but when that man begins to discourse upon some subject with which he is not familiar, he lays himself wide open to ridicule and it only takes him a short Ume, indeed to make a true Darrow sub ject out of himself. That is one" rea son that in my contributions to the press I stick strictly to outdoor sub jects, seldom strolling far from sub jects pertaining to the outdoors. In the first place, this one particular column is an outdoor column and therefore those are the subjects it deals with. The reader would not expect to turn to Out-of-Doors Stuff and find an account of the progress of the construction work on Front street, would he? Or that Missus “So and So” gave a bridge party last Friday and such items as those. And that is the exact reason that I prac tically insulted a gentleman not long ago who wished me to call attention to the fine appearance of his orchard and dairy herd through this column. He remarked that if apples and cattle weren’t outdoor subjects, then what was? Well, they may be outdoor subjects all right, but I can’t figure ’em linked up with hunting and fishing, etc. In fact, they are a dif ferent line altogether. While this gentleman was trying to convince me that I was wrong his old Jersey bull started to bawling and this gave me an idea, so I turned upon him and said, “Well, as far as your herd is concerned it sounds like a lot of “bull” and as to your orchard — “applesauce.” Speaking of discussing subjects with which you are not familiar brings to mind a movie I saw not long ago—perhaps, I should say a talkie Anyway, the hero carried a big re volver upon his hip and a belt filled with cartridges. And the cartridge: in that belt were rifle cartridges of about 30-0« caliber. Another talkie showed a gangster testing out a new bullet proof car ’ that had been presented to him. He unlimbered a big 45 automatic and standing with the muzzle of it not over 18 inches from the car, fired a couple of slugs against its aides. The result in the picture was the showing of two white spots where the bullets struck and failed to penetrate. The gangster said the car was O. X. and climbed aboard. On the face of things this looked fine, but just try standing as close as he did to a bul let proof contraption and firing a couple qf slugs against it and see what happens when the bullet strikes. It’s a safe bet you wrill never try that stunt again. One of the first birds to welcome spring by bursting' into gladsome song is the meadowlark and close up on his heels comes robin-redbreast, the brown thrush and the little win ter wren. And along about this time the mating call of the mountain plumed quail is heard. It is an en tirely different note than his late summer and fall cheery whistle. The mating call consists of but one single note, repeated over and Over. It is often mistaken by many for the call » if the red band tailed hawk, or one' ertheless a lot of my brother sports- k the many calls of the blue-jay. It’s strange how the sight of some object will bring to mind a flock of memories from out the past. The sight of an old battered spinner or an old moth-eaten fly, or a discarded hunting coat, an old packsack, or pair of shoes, a hat, a pair of torn trous ers, all serve to recall some event or adventure encountered at some Ume in the past. I can always go through the old tackle box and dig out a ¡lock of golden memories and weave from the moth-eaten feathers of a discarded fly or a battered spinner, a fishin’ story. A pair of worn-out shoes bring reminders of pleasant days spent in the hills and of events linked with them. The old hunting coat is. forever producing some sort of a feather from the big game pock- St; a mallard feather, or a bit of bright plumage from a long tailed; Chink.” Yes, it is, indeed, easy,: with such reminders before you, to laze back into the past and relive »vents along the trails, the streams and in the fields and marshlands. Be hind me lie scores of experiences and adventures—just heaps and heaps of (olden memories to' draw upon.
