¿¡T MCCULLOCH’S NEW SUPER 55! Mott powor porpound of any gear- rivi saw — TOY IT TODAY! Only $320 up - Easy Terms Man’s domain has been struck an other catastrophic blow. For years the male species has viewed the rug ged outdoor game of hunting and fishing as a sacred monopoly. Excur sions into the wilds were strictly a man’s game—a place where he could “get away from it all”—along with several cohorts—and live again as his primeval forefathers. Out there he could let his hair down, go unshaven and unbathed, and wear old clothes that reeked of fish smells or animal 1 scent often stronger than his own. In this man’s world there was no place for the fair sex. Why, it would be impossible for these delicate bits of femininity to withstand th« rigors of the wild—so he said. The existence I was far too rugged—so he said. Perhaps it was resentment at this complete exclusion that prompted the first housewife to revolt. We don’t know when the first female w'as allowed to accompany her husband on one of these “rugged” trips into the backwoods, but somewhere along the i line she definitely used her womanly I wiles to worm her way in. The first I infringement of the sacred rule pro- i bably occurred when a husband weak- i ened from the ire of a woman who I refused to be left alone. And once the . bars were down the great outdoor 1 bubble burst. From that first weakening, the I fairer sex slowly began to infiltrate | the ranks of hunters and fishermen. ■ In sheer defense of becoming a hunt- Raymond Branch & Son Equipment Company Phone UL 9-2160 Mehama, Oregon YOU CA 3 .

Perhaps it’s When you need a little off the beaten path or maybe a little too far for most Oregon PRINTING ians to travel. Nevertheless, 75 per cent of the anglers checked this year MILL CITY ENTERPRISE have been nonresidents, with about 40 per cent of these fishing on the new daily angling permit. The Outboard Boating Club of America, after an extensive study on the causes of boating accidents, came out with the plain statement that “lack of common sense” on the part of the individual is the primary reason for most boating catastro- phies. overloading, Foolish operation, standing up in the boat, unbalanced load, turning too sharply, and other similar misjudgments caused about 36 per cent of the boating fatalities. Fishermen were involved in pro portionately more fatal accidents than boatmen engaged in other forms of boating activities. Since fishing does not require high sPsed operation, the speed factor must be discounted as a major contribution to fatal ac cidents. A breakdown of boat operators in * e, /à relation to accident victims shows that 84 per cent of the victims were I males, 14 per cent femates, and the remaining 2 per cent not stated. Males were operating the boat in 76 percent of the cases. The above lack of common sense was certainly illustrated opening day at Detroit reservoir where this writ er witnessed a small 14-foot craft loaded with eight persons, three of whom were children. There was barely enough freeboard to keep the small craft afloat when under way. Not a single life preserver was ob served. fast...
