-i- Ill COQUILLE V ALLCT 7,u Out-of-Doors Stuff Howdy, folks! Clad to meet you all again. So, after a lapse of sev eral years we once again break intc print with Southwestern Oregon's only out of door column—“OUT-OF- DOORS-STUFF,” compiled by a «portsman, for sportsmen and written exclusively for The Sentinel. First, I wish to thank those friends of mine, whom, by their comments regarding my past writings have prompted me to again take up the cudgel in behalf of our game and fish—to again dwell upon topics per taining to the out-of-doors in general. OUT-OF-DOORS-STUFF is a col umn devoted strictly tb the hunter, the angler, the outdoorsman, the hiker, the camper and to all those who are interested in "The House that God built”—no roof, but thè stars, the blue sky—no walls—just a road expanse of freedom where we may roam—following wihding rivers, moss-covered trout streams, leaf- strewn trails and list* to the songs of the wind among the giants of the forest and worship with a certain reverend awe at the throne of The Great Red Gods- Of The Forest. It is to such folks that this column is devoted, in fact dedicated to. It is to those folks who trod the forest trails, huddle in the blinds of wind swept marshes, sit beside a wilder ness campfire, watching the sparks shoot skyward to mingle with the stars far above; to those who follow the trout streams, and stalk the ma jestic buck in his wilderness retreat. We draw no distinction in this col umn. The poor hunter, with an old frayed huntin’ coat and an old model gun tastili dear to our heart. We ap preciate the, class of sportsmen who are “outsiders”—with no place to hunt on account of rented gun club lands. We place the welfare of the game ahead of politics and we do not hesitate at any time to express our opinion concerning anything that we figure to harmful to the welfare of our wildlife, whether such subjects may be advocated by game officiata, individuata, or whatnot. We wish OUT-OF-DOORS-STUFF to be a meeting place for every out doorsman, for every hunter and fish erman. We will be glad at all times to answer any questions pertaining to hunting, fishing, camping (not hitch-hiking). We will be glad to assist you in choosing your camping equipment, your fire-arms, and your fishing tackle. This ta your column and we sincerely hope that you will enjoy the future contributions appearing in it. ’ This is merely an introduction to new readers and we do hope that our old readers of past years will respond to it now as faithfully as they did in the past.

Auto Mechanics Class To Start WAR BONDS k A series of executive orders, based upon suggestions of Mr. Baruch and Justice Rosenman, is expected soon from the President. It is believed that these orders will provide for ex tending the basic work week from 40 to 48 hours. They may require war contractors to hire all future em ployees through the U. S. Employment Service. It Is possible that supplementary proposals would prevent a worker from shifting from one job to another Without the consent of the U. S. Em ployment Service. Another phase would channel all enlistments for the armed services through Selective Service. This would discourage any shifts that would operate against the war effort. ’ lesion Auxiliary Notice The regular meeting of the Legion A Farm Equipment Repair Auxiliary will be held in Legion hall Class Can Be Organized Monday.
