Grandma’s Sayings Every American boy should learn to shoot a 22 caliber rifle, says Jack Lacy, famed marksman and gun tester who has taught thou sands of youngsters to shoot safe ly. With summer coming along, thousands of boys will soon have the oportunity to learn if they have help from Dad, thinks Lacy. Learning to shoot a rifle safely in youth is an investment that will produce lifelong benefit and pleas ure, according to Lacy, whose avocation is testing high-accuracy target rifles for the Winchester Re peating Arms Company division of Olin Industries, Inc., New Haven, Conn. With education in gun handling, gun accidents are minimized. Knowing how to shoot a gun safe ly gives any youngster, regardless of size or strength, the opportunity to shoot competitively on an equal basis with almost any other boy of any size or strength. Thus, says Jack Lacy whose thousands of pro teges have never had a gun acci dent. If Dad is a shooter, a boy’s prin cipal hurdle—getting proper instruc tion —is overcome. If Dad doesn’t know how to shoot, it is still Dad’s job to make sure the proper course of instruction is made available and followed. One of the best sources for in formation is the free material from the Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers’ Institute, 343 Lex ington Avenue, New York 16, N.Y. This tells how and where to build a rifle range indoors or out. Of course the best short cut is to join a rifle club. Write the Na tional Rifle Association, Scott Cir cle, Washington, D.C., for the loca tion of your nearest rifle club. Whatever you do, says Lacy, a boy’s first step in learning to shoot is to know the Ten Commandments of Safety and then to put them into constant practice. Here are the Ten Commandments: 1. Treat every gun with the re spect due a loaded gun. This is the cardinal rule of gun safety. 2. Carry only empty guns, taken down or with the action open, into your automobile, camp, and home. 3. Always be sure that the barrel and action are clear of obstructions. 4. Always carry your gun so that you can control the direction of the muzzle, even if you stumble. 5. Be sure of your target before you pull the trigger. 6. Never point a gun at anything you do not want to shoot. 7. Never leave your gun unattend ed unless you unload it first. 8. Never climb a tree or a fence with a loaded gun. 9. Never shoot at a flat, hard sur face or the surface of water. 10. Do not mix gunpowder and alcohol. AAA Tht shad is tht most valuable fish of the Atlantic coast and, next to the Pacific salmon, the most important species inhabiting the waters of North America. Izaak Walton The Compleat Angler AAA Keeping Fly Dry Keeping a fly dry—good and dry —after you start fishing with it is quite a chore. Qne way is to make a lot of false casts—and these are pretty effective if you’ll pop the fly at the end of a false cast—like cracking a whip. Only of course, you have to be careful not to pop the fly so hard it comes off the leader. Another way to dry out a fly is to blow on it. Still another way is to use a piece of Kleenex like a blotter to soak up the water, and then blow on the fly to fluff out the hackles. All of these things fail after you hook and land a fish, because the slime from the fisn gets on the feathers—and when that happens, there isn’t any way I know of to bring the fly back to its origi nal fresh, fluffy appearance. The best cure I've found for this is to put on a new fly every time you land a trout. Maybe that’s extravagant—but no more extravagant than shoot ing a new shell every time another duck comes over the blind. And besides, new dry flies catch a lot more fish than old, draggly ones. That’s true because they float bet ter. With the line and leader all dressed up and ready to float, the next thing is how to cast it. And this is just as important as the dressing—if not more so. Every cast of a dry fly should be made with enough slack to permit the entire line to float on the surface of the water. AAA Worm Fishing The easiest way to fish with worms is to cast up and across the stream. When you feel the bait hit bottom, pull gently until you release it, then let the current carry it along until it hangs again. This allows the worm to bump along in a natural way. The cur rent and the action you give your tight line keeps it moving prop erly. If a strike fails to produce a hooked fish, try again in the same spot.

And all through the year oth er scripts will be performed; sec ond, third and fourth winners re ceived $500 each, authors of other JEAN HERSHOLT scripts that are broadcast received $250-$300, with Jean Hersholt, of course, always in the role he has made famous. During the years the contests have been won by house wives, stenographers, chorus girls, professional and amateur writers— in short, by Mr. and Mrs. America. Jody Garland’s tremendous success in the English music halls has restored her health, her self-confidence, and her sun ny disposition. Theatres all over the continent are offering her fabulous sums, but after a brief tour of Scotland she will return for a picture with Bing Crosby. Dana Andrews’ favorite part in RKO Radio’s “Sealed Cargo” is one you won’t see. He acted as technical adviser on this sea yarn. Owner of two boats, an 85-foot ketch and a 55- foot cutter, he is quite an authority on nautical problems. Carleton Young’s voice is going to sound familiar as your next door neighbor’s when you see him in RKO Radio’s “The Blue Veil”. He is regularly on dramatic programs on all four major networks, played the Count of Monte Cristo for six years. *T Was an American Spy” tells the true story of Claire Phillips, famous and fearless American espionage agent in the Philippines.

The campers bring along chow pans, axes, rope, lashing cord and sleeping bags. With the Forest Ranger’s permission, they cut down trees, from which stools and tables are built. Needled, small-stem branches become mattresses under their bed rolls. The girls also make other camp craft necessities such as sunken food-coolers, reflector ovens, stone-lined baking holes, drainage systems and trash pits. During their stay at Gypsy Haven the girls cook their own meals and make friends with the area’s wild life. A doe and her fawn visit the camp daily and chipmunks come up to eat from the girls’ hands. • • • IN DES MOINES, IA., seven lucky Horizon Club members of senior high school age, accom panied by three counselors, last summer paddled a 24-foot war canoe 35 miles down the Dec Moines river. Sandbars and rapids added thrills to the trip which in volved five steady hours of hard paddling. When an experienced camper in Portland, Ore., reaches the ripe old age of 14, she gets to live in a unit of tree-houses. An added zest goes with outdoor cooking in Dickinson, N. D., where Camp Fire Girls prepare frogs-leg dinners from frogs they catch them selves. Even Blue Birds, who are seven- to-ten-year-olds and the youngest members of Camp Fire Girls, are imbued with pioneer spirit. They love to cook on tin can stoves or on sticks over tin open fire. Their pride in their own efforts produces an enthusiasm that occasionally far exceeds results. As one little San Diego Blue Bird said last year while she munched happily on a badly “sunburned” bread twist, “I wish my another could cook like this.” In a recent issue of The Camp Fire Girl, Ernest F. Schmidt, di rector of Schiff Outdoor Activities in Mendham, N.J., gave Camp Fire campers two rules to follow when hiking. . The first is to stop, look and listen if they become lost: stop to collect thoughts; look for landmarks, and listen for sounds of trains, auto mobiles or running water. The second suggestion is always to carry with them a Litepac Lost Kit of emergency tools. The kit, which each girl can assemble her self, should include a small com pass, snare wire and fishing tackle, matches, bouillon cubes, paper and pencil, and razor blade. All these articles fit into a cigarette-type plastic case, or a typewriter ribbon box, either of which can be water proofed with nail polish or shellac cut 50 per cent with alcohol. ACROSS f.

BY HER By Richord H. Wilkinson T HE MAN who had rented Freda the outboard motor told her that any fool could run one of the things. However, right now, drifting in the wrong direction in the middle of Mirror lake, with the sun beating down un mercifully, she would have giv- 1 en a good deal to have the man’s neck between her two hands. Just for luck she gave the crank one more spin. The motor went “chugurg, chugurg’’— and died. “Damn!” exclaimed Freda. She was so furious she could have cried. Instead she stood Up and began 1 to wave wildly at a boat that had sud denly appeared around an island point. The boat kept serenely on its course and Freda was about to give up yelling and abandon herself to fate when the other craft swerved and headed in her direction. Two minutes later a black-haired youth was grinning up at her pleasantly. “Trouble?” he asked. “There’s not a thing wrong with this motor,” said Freda, “except that it won’t run.” The young man climbed aboard. He had a wrench in his hand. “I’ll fix it,” he said. Freda thought he was pretty confident, but a moment later she changed her mind. “Strainer got clogged.” he said. “I’m an expert on outboards. My business is retrievin’ ’em.” “Retrieving them?” “Sore. Plenty of motors lost In this lake every year.

DAWES was an interesting character, a man of many varied experiences. The general, and his brother, Rufus, were almost wholly responsible for the holding in 1933 Chicago’s Century of Progress ex position. A group of the .city’s wealthy men had proposed that such an exposition be held at that time —and then the depression broke. The proposers objected to fi nancing an exposition at such a time. The two Dawes broth ers insisted that, having been announced, the show mast go on. Daring the days it was held I watched Gen. Dawes on many occasions stand In front of a numbering machine in the ad ministration building as it checked off the visitors, one by one, as they passed through the paid admission turnstiles. In the end, there were enough such admissions to enable the ex position to pay ont. finder its charter it could not make a profit, bat there was enough left after all bond'holders were paid, pins interest, to rase all the buildings, and to beautifully landscape the five mile long lake front park through which rolls every day many thousands of automobiles from within and without the city. That is one of Chicago’s beauty spots, and for it the people of the city can thank the Century of Prog- reta. Gen. Dawes served his country. As a soldier, he was purchasing agent of the American army in France during the first World War. As a civilian he served as vice president, as ambassador to Eng land, as first director of the budget and comptroller of the treasury. The Dawes bank. Central Trust of Illinois, was the first big—$13 mil lion-borrower of the Reconstruc tion Finance Corporation, and every doUar, plus interest, was fully re paid. Through the years he spent in Chicago he was a leader in the city’s promotion. For many years a man of wealth, he died compara tively poor. * It is broadly rumored in Washing ton that other heads than that of Douglas MacArthur are to. fall un der the blows of President Tru man’s execution axe. Rumor has it that J. Edgar Hoover, director of the F.B.I. is included in the next list of victims. Hoover and the F.B.I. have beeq largely responsible for the conviction of juch Russian spies as Alger Hiss. As political misadventure, the removal of the" popular F.B.L director would be second only to thst of the now immortal MacArthur. It would bo resented by the American people, and cause them to think. If not ex press, their opinions as to which side of the iron curtain the President and his advisers, are standing. Politically, it complete the job so definitely started by the summary re moval of MacArthur. It is possible the disasterous re sults of the MacArthur decapita tion may result in staying the hand of the President in the case of J. Edgar Hoover. His party cannot afford another such result, especial ly between now and the 1952 elec tions. Should the people receive an other slap in the face within the next few months at the institaga- tion of Dean Acheson, we might as well save the expense of the next election. * The administration at Washington continuously insists we will offer nothing that can be considered as appeasement to' Communism, but at the behest of England, the grand- daddy of all appeasers, and the in sistence of the socialistically in clined Dean Acheson, the President fired the one man more generally feared by Stalin and his Red hordes than any one else. That was appeasement, and the American people gave ample evidence that they did not like it. * It would seem that it might be a good thing for President Truman that the recall system does not ap ply to the presidency. * The day will come when Dean Acheson will need a safe hiding place if he la to escape the presi dential hair brush. Freda told Len Curtain her name without even stopping to think. aud sell ’em. My name’s Len Curtain. What’s yonrs?” “Freda Brandon,” said Freda, without even stopping to think. “Freda Brandon, eh? You’re the girl who’s going to marry Ray Hubbard. Well, they say money will do anything; but deliver me, WeU. so long.” Freda didn’t catch her breath until she got back to camp. Her mother had news. “Darling! Ray wired he’s com ing up! He’s arriving tomorrow.” Freda’s spirits sank. “Goody, goody,” she said sourly. Freda set off in the outboard the next morning 10 minutes before Ray was due to arrive. Thirty min* utes later she saw a familiar look ing boat anchored in a cove and camp up alongside. “Hi!” grinned Len Curtain “How’s things?” “Fine. Say, look, what do you do in the winter?” “Oh, this and that.” Len hauled in his grappling iron. “Falsa alarm. Nothing here. How about anchoring that scow and taking a ride around with me?” Ray Hubbard was waiting on the dock when she got back. He didn’t like the idea of her not being at camp to greet him, but she didn’t care. T HE DAY after Ray departed Len Curtain came into the dock and Freda went down to see what he wanted. “It’s a funny thing, but I’m in love. Will you marry me?” Freda almost fell into the water. “Goodness! I’m going to marry Ray.” “Pshaw! You don’t love Him. Marry me and we’ll have fun.” Freda caught herself won dering if that wouldn’t be a good idea. She laughed, sound ing like a frog with a sore throat. “Marry you and fish for out boards all summer—and do what in the winter?” Ray grinned. “There’s no fishing in the winter. We’d get along. I’ve just sold my grappling magnet in vention to the Sea Demon outboard people. That’s only the beginning of the things I can invent.” Freda blinked. Good heavens, was he going to be as startling as that all his life. ‘TU have to think it over.” “Give you five minutes. Hop in and we’ll ride around in the mean time.” Freda heard of people being hyp notized, and she guessed that was what was wrong with her. She hopped in and they rode around. When five minutes was up Len Curtain kissed her and she kissed him back and that settled the business. v' HOME TOWN PUNT Corn to Fowl Switch Big Dividends INDEPENDENCE, Iowa — A switch from com to chicken has really paid off for the Independence Canning Corporation—and for In dependence (population 4,300). It’s paid off for the company be cause now the plant runs full steam, the year ’round,. instead of for a few hurried weeks during the sweet com season. Business is good enough to require two-shift opera tion during part of the summer. It’s paid off for the small town, be cause 85 people now have year- round jobs at the canning plant. Four years ago, there were only 25 Jobs there. “When we purchased the plant in 1946,” Darrel Forsman, general manager, said recently, “we thought we had a really good day If we turned out 1200 cans of whole chicken.” Now, according to Fores- man’s best guess, the plant averfcg* es 9000 cans of chicken and turkey a day, besides preparing pan-ready fryers, fowl for fricassee, and tur keys done up in pliofilm bags. Farmers Benefit The plant has paid off for the farmers of the area, too. During the season, the company buys all their poultry within 100 miles of Inde pendence. When it slows up, they reach out further. At times they buy chickens from as far as away as Tennessee, New York and Texas. Each year it Ifn- ports several carloads from Can- a da. * In 1946, the first year the present owners had the plant, they canned com and began to remodel the property fox; canning poultry. The next three years, they rapidly ex panded the poultry volume, but stopped to can com each season. Then they realized the peak de mand for poultry conflicted with the sweet corn harvest Last year they eliminated canned com from their products, and began to devote all their facilities to canning chick en and turkey. P, L. South, director of sales, re ports it is remarkable the volume of canned chicken business the firm enjoys in rural Iowa, where fresh chickens are available at all times of the year. The firm’s largest vol ume, however, is from large cities. The firm also exports to several for- eign countries. \ Products Go Overseas The company’s chicken products go overseas west as well as east. Last winter, the company received a letter from « soldier in Korea, telling how much he enjoyed a can of chicken in his Christmas .pack age. (He was sent a case of chick en, with, the company’s compli ments.) A sizable amount of the com pany’s production goes to service men through more conventional channels. “We have filled several army contracts, since the outbreak in Korea,” the' manager reports, “and we’ll do more.” The Iowa Development Commis sion, in a recent report on the steady growth of the state’s indus try, points out that the Independ ence company is an example of what industry in the home towns can do for the community. It is an example that could be followed by many small towns now in search of ways to provide their communities with a balanced economy. -a t ■ m •f. ,>4 / j llr Twi Friendly, Unhnrrled Robbers Wind Up In Jail WI&T SPRINGFIELD, Mass.—, Raymond Asselin is so persuasive he can talk a robber out of hia money—that’s exactly what ha did.
