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.
Will see you all next week and will

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

would channel all enlistments for
