There were many and varied types of riders, horses, riggings and costumes, ranch nanus, minions of the law, drugstore cowboys' and cowgirls, and lady dudes, some preferring to travel out by automobile. The greater portion, however, rode meir horses..

Perhaps the sight of so many equestrians and eques triennes, accounted 'for his mar velous appetite. At any rate, he won Jhe hand-tooted kettle, j The rodeo motif was fur nished by Wally Moss. Versatile fellow1,- Wally sells neckties, dispenses drinks, officiates as the third man in the squared circle-at the j groan and grunt exhibitions, and is a buckaroo also. as he very well, demon strated. When his cayuse felt that he just had'-to get the kinks out 'of his spine, Wally gave him his head and hit him with his hat, giving us a touch nf the real stuff. Well, let's take of the rigglns and turn out the SIOCK. I feel moved to conclude this column on a more serious note. We conservationists, sportsmen, and lovers of nature, should be among me iirst to realize the importance of winning this war, and to rally to the call of the bond drive. We are now de prived or, or at least restricted, in our enjoyment of the recrea tional advantages that we con sider to be of such great im portance to our way of life. If we are again to enjoy our vaca tions nunting, fishing, camping, boating, visiting our sea shores ano national forest and park areas, we must do everything within our power to bring this terrible strueele to an end. Th Dest contribution to the cause we stay-at-homes can make is to buy bonds and more hnnrtt buy until it hurts. Joe Hicks has undertaken the mnn-i7nH lob, for the Kiwanis club, of putting the Fifth Bond Drive over, and we all must do our part by word and deed to make this drive as successful as the previous ones. Klamath county can put it over. What are we waiting for7 These bonds represent a share in America America, the land of freedom, with its vast resources, its forests, mountains. lakes and streams, filled with abundant wild life, and scenic wonders for our Dhvsical and spiritual needs, its ours, folks; let's protect it with our dollars. Our boys and girls in uniform will do their job. Let s do ours Come on old pal, dig up that Make Tojo and Hitler holler. Until they hear each other far across the sea: Then we 11 board the gravy train au me World will shout and sing. And we'll keep this land of ours so fine and free.
