Joe Marsh For Closed the office early last Sat urday to go after pheasants with Pops Foster. I used fewer sheila than the old gentleman and took home more birds-bat not be cause I did better shooting. I'd borrowed a dog for the oc casion. Pops took along Blue, his ancient pointer. Several times I noticed Pops walk up to a clump of bushes Blue had pointed at and fire into the air though he hadn't flushed a single bird. Naturally, I wanted to know why. "Well," he said sheepishly, "I've been hunting with that dog for 1 1 seasons. His nose isn't much Tie This One any more but I'd rather waste a shell than let him know." From where I sit, Pops always shows consideration for people, too. For instance, this is a small thing, but he puts a bottle of beer on ice for me when I visit him though he never takes anything but coffee himself. Even if he doesn't agree with me on a mat ter of personal choice (which is his right) he'd rather not make "point" of letting me know.
