ROCK HOUND'S CORNER By JOHN NEWMAN Have you your pick ready? This Sunday you know is the potluck picnic rock hunting field day. This time we won't need the pack unless this spot hap pens to be picked out, if it is maybe you'd better bring the old sack along. We might want to explore a little and you never know what you might want to bring out. Most of the graveled roads are in good shape, but some of the dirt roads get a little slick yet, with just a little shower. It would be advisable to carry chains if you have the least inclination to get off on dirt roads. Thunder showers can come up quickly at this time of year. The potluck lunch is pretty well planned at this time. If you haven't been told what to bring it is likely that you or your phone has been out. If you are in doubts call Ethel Newman or Alta Edgers. Our next meeting is Saturday, From where I sit ..Jy Joe Marsh The Woodchuck Wouldn't "ChucL' -fed. m Lady called up our newspa per and asked how to get a woodchuck out of her garage. I referred her to young Chip Wllklns, our Field and W ildlife Editor. That's easy,"says Chip. "Just roll some bread into pellets, and make a trail of them leading out of the garage." Next day she called Chip again. "You sure are smart," she coo-ed, "to know a wood chuck will follow a trail of breadcrumbs. Now I've got tuo woodchucks in the garage!" From w here I sit, sometimes "expert advice" turns out to be not so expert. Reminds me ot those who are always ready to advise us how to relax. ..how to work. ..whether or not to prefer cofTec (for instance) to a (lass of beer. I think a lot of us ought to think (ric before advising people to do this thing or that thing. In the long run. It will make us all better neighbors.
