Commencement By Lans Leneve Last month while fishing on a lake in Curry county my attention was at tracted to a pair of ducks swimming a short distance ahead of my boat. At first I gave them scant attention but, looking more closely, I made them out to be "black whistlers”—ducks that are almost extinct, so far as this part of the country is concerned. And I doubt very much that they may be found in great numbers anywhere in the world today. When I was a kid they used to be quite numerous here, although never appearing in numbers anywhere nearly equal to other species. They are a large duck and black, except for a plotch of yellowish- white at the base of the bill on each cheek. When in flight their wings whistle loudly. They are easily ap proached and fall an easy target to the gunner. That is my reason for believing that they must be very scarce even in their natural range. TUst about twenty years ago, on the south side of the river from town I glimpsed my last pair of black whist lers, before encountering those upon FTBR AXA. the smoothest eight is the eight you want. 8o make he lake last month.
