Tips For Deer Hunters
Be sure of your target.
Don’t lose that cripple.
Save that meat.
According to Henry P. Davis,
public relations manager of the
Remington Arms Co., these should
be the three cardinal principles of
the deer hunter. The nimrod seek
ing deer, Davis advises, should
keep saying them over and over to
himself.
“First and foremost of all tips on
deer hunting,” says Davis, “is ‘Be
Sure of Your Target!’ Most deer
hunters are prone to make snap
shots. Sometimes this is necessary
if one is to get in a shot at all, but
it only takes a fraction of a second
to make sure that your target is
really a deer and not a cow or calf
or even a man. And if all deer
hunters will only hesitate for that
fraction of a second to be absolute
ly certain, the hunting accident rate
will fall like a barometer before
a hurricane.
Always Go Slowly
“In still hunting, go slowly. Be
sure of your footing before each
step. A cracking twig, a dislodged
stone . . . and there may go your
trophy before you can catch a
glimpse of him. If you are hunting
with a companion (and you should
for hunting alone is dangerous), be
sure that you know where he is at
all times.
“When you do get a shot, try hard
to make it good. Try to put your
bullet, slug or buckshot in the chest
area—the closer the heart, the bet
ter. The chest area is between the
elbow and the shoulder. The vital
neck area is a good spot if you
can hit it. Anything behind the ribs
is usually very bad. Hold low and
forward.
“If you should cripple him, stay
on the trail until you get him, even
if you have to wait until the next
day. Unless you know the deer is
down, wait for at least 30 minutes
(an hour will be better) before you
follow. He will probably lie down in
the first good cover and if allowed
to stay there awhile will probably
stiffen up too much to move far
later. If you get after him too soon,
he may travel miles before he beds
down. If it’s too dark to follow,
take up the trail again at dawn.
“Dress your deer out at once.
Body heat spoils meat. Cut from
the breast bone to the base of tail,
being careful not to puncture the in
testines. Cut around vent and pull
in. Roll out viscera, cut gullet,
loose and drain. Then be sure to
swab whole cavity clean and DRY.
Cool the carcass as quickly as pos
sible.
Skin Out the Deer
“In bringing your meat home,
don’t just throw it on the fender
and let it go at that. If you have a
long, hot trip home, skin out your
deer, quarter the carcass, rub salt
into the meat and wrap in cheese
cloth or packer’s cloth. If your
trip runs into the second day, cool
the meat during the night and re
peat the ‘insulating’ process.
“In getting your deer to camp,
and you have a partner with you,
don’t hang the deer by its feet to
a single pole. Cut two poles and tie
the carcass on s that the bulk of
the animal’s weight is on top of the
poles. If you are by yourself, it is
best to drag the carcass into camp,
using a short light rope. If pos
sible, attach a red handkerchief to
the deer’s antlers or body so that
another hunter won’t take a pot
shot at you.
AAA
A deer's antlers grow so fast that
the process is almost, if not wholly,
without parallel in the animal king
dom.
AAA
Can You?
If you caught a trout could you
tell whether it was a brook, brown
or rainbow?
A surprising number of trout fish
ermen, roughly 40 percent, cannot,
judging from a poll conducted by
the conservation department's in
stitute for fisheries research.
Over 300 trout fishermen working
specially designated sections of the
Pigeon and Rifle rivers and Hunt
creek in Michigan were asked to
identify the three kinds of trout
which were exhibited at checking
stations. All three trout were cor
rectly identified by 62 percent of
those who co-operated in the test
at the Pigeon river checking sta
tion, 56 percent of those at Hunt
creek and 54 percent of those brav
ing the test at the Rifle river sta
tion. A few declined to hazard a
guess.
The institute reports 64 persons
tripped on identifying the brown, 60
on the rainbow and 54 more had
trouble choosing the brook trout.
AAA
Never Too Cold
Have jrou ever done any fishing
through the ice for your favorite
panfish—say, crappie or bream?
You’re missing some good sport
and meat on the table if you have
not. The trick in creeling winter-
run panfish is the use of special
“ice" panfish flies which are ap
pearing in increasing numbers on
the market. These are flies, sparse
ly dressed, as a rule, and sufficient
ly weighted to get them down deep
where the fash lie in winter.
THE WHITE HOUSE
$5 Million Spent on Renovation
Of Historic Executive Mansion
WNU Washington Bureau
When President Truman and his
family move back into their home
at 1600*Pennsylvania avenue shortly
after the first of the year, they will
find the historic old White House a
stronger, safer structure designed
to last another century as the resid
ence of the nation’s presidents.
During the two years of its ren
ovation at a cost of well over
$5,000,000 the architects and build
ers have been careful to preserve
the traditional appearance of the
White House both as to exterior and
interior, so that to all intents and
purposes the old mansion remains
the same as it always has been in
tiTft minds and hearts of the Ameri
can people.
Four new bedrooms have been
added, making the total number of
rooms now 54. Only the strengthen
ing of the basic structure has been
concentrated upon; there has been
no change in the architectural ar
rangement of the house.
On the first floor, there are no
great changes except in the state
dining room, used only for official
dinners. Formerly paneled in dark
oak, this room is now painted a
celadon green. An antique Hepple-
white four-pedestal dining table
wljich seats 22 is a new addition.
The private dining room, used by
the President and his family, has
Sheraton and Hepplewhite furniture
in the 18th century tradition, most
of which has been in use in the
Blair House, temporary residence
of the Truman family during the
reconstruction, but which is refin
ished and recovered and placed in
the original location.
In general, the first "floor retains
its air of simple dignity, while un
dergoing a strengthening of color
throughout. The blue room, fre-

T ANA TURNER’S autobiography,
in the December Woman’s Home
Companion, is one of the frankest
and most honest life stories ever
written by an actress. After telling
hitherto unpublished facts about her
early life, she goes on to relate the
truth about her marriages—to Artie
Shaw, Steve Crane and Bob Top
ping. There is the tale of her walk
ing across the stage and speaking
one line in her first picture; she
was horrified when she saw herself

on the screen, but that appearance
shot her into tame as The Sweater
Girl. She pulls no punches, makes
no apologies; the result is a story
that holds interest from beginning
to end.
quently called the prettiest in the
house, Is a deeper and more vi
brant blue.
The red room is a lighter red,
not as dark and brown as before.
The draperies are red silk damask
of 18th century design, and the
same material is used to cover the
walls. The only different note in the
room is white damask used on a
set of Hepplewhite chairs and a
Chippendale wing chair.
The walls and draperies of the
green room are the same shade of
striking emerald green silk damask.
Much of the furniture in this room
had been in use in the Blair House.
The green room had been redeco
rated and restored only a few
months before the house was va
cated.
THE EAST ROOM, the largest in
the White House, where Abigail
Adams, wife of the first occupant
hung her washing, is used oitiy for
state receptions. A white and lemon-
gold silk damask has been woven
from an old document character
istic of many used in the 18th cen
tury. This material is used for the
draperies, replacing the old cran
berry red silk ones. Here, too, hang
the portraits of George and Martha
Washington saved when the fBritish
burned the original building in 1812.
The grand stairway to the second
floor is entered from the main hall,
rather than the secondary cross-
hall as before the restoration. The
marble floor, columns, pilasters,
and wainscot of the main floor hall
are new. A set of walnut framed
Louis XIV benches have been in
stalled. The hall is somewhat sparse
ly furnished, in keeping with its
essentially plain architectural na
ture.
The second floor is bfighter and
more informal. The Monroe room
is furnished with its restored and
refinished original pieces. The dra
peries here are of an 18th century
print of fruits and flowers in rose
and blue. This room is very simply
furnished with a desk, bookcase,
sofas and lounge chairs suited to
its historical background.
Having undergone a varied his
tory and having been relegated to
different rooms in the White House,
the massive Victorian bed in which
Abe Lincoln slept is once again the
main feature of the Lincoln room
on the second floor. Other pieces
of furniture belonging to Lincoln
are also used in the room, once
Lincoln’s study and where he
signed the Emancipation Proclama
tion.
While the treatment of the sec
ond floor for the most part ex
presses a spirit of informality, the
third floor is even more informal.
The third floor bedrooms are small
er and economy and simplicity have
been sought in the process of their
renovation. There are 17 full bath
rooms and 16 half baths in the
house.
The original kitchen, on the
ground floor of the White House,
with its vaulted ceilings and stone
fireplaces has been replaced by a
new and modern kitchen. The old
kitchen will be used as a conference
and broadcasting room. Here will
be, sofas and lounge chairs of more
modern vintage but completely re
stored, together with an old pine
table and large hutch built from
old rafters of the house at the
time the building was reconstruct
ed in 1815-17.
The main interior change is a
strengthening of color throughout,
and in contrast to this, the execu
tive mansion will be a “whiter”
White House.

FlCtlOn strum was saying,
"■ “Doc, against my
better judgment, the commissioner
and the rest of the boys thought
you ought to be called in on this
case.”
Dr. Hawes had been a psychiatrist
until orfe of his cases caused him to
see the application of psychology to
criminal detection.
“Lieutenant, don’t tell me only
the commissioner. How about the
business men whose properties are
endangered by this firebug?
The Lieutenant’s voice crackled.
“The business men too!”
Doc suppressed a laugh. **The
case interests me, But first, your
department lets the story out to the
papers that Doc Hawes has been
called in.” The howl was just what
Hawes expected. “Listen, Lieuten
ant, I like publicity, as you may
have heard, but that doesn’t matter
here. I know these arsonists. Play
ball or I can’t be much help.”
Hawes observed the pleasant re
actions in his staff, waiting for the
silence to break.
“Okay, Doc. I hope you know
what you’re doing.’’
Stevenson had the tape recorder
ready; the front-page story in the
Chronicle was spread out.
The waiting was getting to be
monotonous. Doc eyed the phone
morosely. But this time it pealed.

GRASSROOTS
Great Britain Did Not Use Well Money U. S. Gave
By Wright A. Patterson
T hirty-five billion dollars of
American tax payers’ money
have gone down the rat hole of
English socialism, says Fulton
Lewis, Jr., after a careful and thor
ough investigation in England. He
found every othe, war-devastated
nation of Europe well-recovered,
fully employed with production at
prewar figures with ambition
aroused, both as to each nation
generally avd with their individual
citizens, with the shops and stores
well stocked with both the essen
tials and the luxuries of living.
In England there was only
austerity, meagre supplies, ra
tioned food, a lack of ambition,
reduced production, an ever-in
creasing burden of debt. All of
that, regardless of the fact that
this country has contributed to
England more than two and a
half times as much money as It
has contributed to all the other
war devastated nations of Eu
rope. England did not use the
money we generously provided
for the purposes for which we
intended, the reconstruction of
the war-devastated sections of
that country, but did use it to
finance the venture into social
istic experiments which did not
work.
The wealth of England has been
dissipated without benefit to any
class. The “something for nothing”
of the Attlee labor government, in
so far as it has worked at all, has
been only possible through the
money paid to the labor government
by the people of America. And we
are urged to follow the example of
England, to follow the pied piper of
socialism over the precipice into
the oblivion that is today the fate
of England.
The legislation the President has
so ardently urged congress to enact
is but additional steps toward so
cialism. The Brannan farm plan,
medicine, federal aid for education—
these and others are but moves for a
centralized government that could
easily become as much of a menace
as the Atlee government.
We need a leadership that will
turn us away from these socialistic
dangers. No political party will
provide such leadership, but there
is one man, one individual, in whom
the people of America have implicit
confidence. That one man is the dis
credited general of the Army, Doug
las MacArthur.
His words of warning against the
socialistic advance are stirring mil
lions of his countrymen to the battle
front to oppose that more to be
feared enemy than any other, so
cialism. Gen. MacArthur led our
forces to victory in a terrible war.
He administered ”ie defeated ene
my, starting the Japanese people
in the ways of peace and instilling
in them the desire for individual
liberties. But he was not permitted
nor invited to witness the final
chapter of those great events of
which he had been the central fig
ure. Now he turns to another lead
ership. He does not do so as a
candidate for the nomination to any
public office. He does so only as a
truly great American interested in
the future of his country with the
hope of defeating that greatest of
al^| enemies that could threaten us
—socialism. My guess is America
will follow where he leads. It is our
last chance for a coptinuance of the
America we know and love.
*
All of the wild, reckless and need
less spending of the taxpayers’
money is not confined to members
of the congress in Washington.
Some of the Ame disregard for the
interests of the people may be found
in the council chambers c f our
towns and cities, in the court
houses of our counties, in the legis
lative halls of our state capitals. It
may not be in sums of billions, or
even millions, but small or large,
as it may be, it is not the money
of our elected officials that is being
foolishly or needlessly spent, but
ours, the people who elected them
to office. Congress may be too far
away for us to reach in any prac
tical way, but that is not true of
our town, county and even state of
ficials. We see them at frequent in
tervals, and should not hesitate xo
call them to accotmt for not seek
ing ways to economize, rather than
only ways to spend.

The chiselers on the relief rolls
are so draining the wealth of the
nation that it will not be long be
fore there will be nothing with
which to provide relief for those
really entitled to consideration.

Of Your
In Animals
MIND
By Lawrence Gould
Do children see themselves in animals?
Answer: Yes, says Drs. Leopold
and Sonya S. Beliak in the Journal
of Projective Techniques. They de
scribe their* new version for chil
dren of the “Apperception Test”
in which the subject is asked to,
say what he “sees” in specially de
signed pictures. In the Children’s
Apperception Test (CAT) the pic
tures are of animals because the
authors say a child is likely to
identify himself more readily with
them than with adults or with other
children. The seeming affinity be
tween children and animals may
well be due to the animals’ freedom
from inhibitions of natural instinct.
Answer: Yes—and no. There are
types of psychosis which seem to
clear up without specific treatment
in what, the psychiatrists call
“spontaneous remission,” and the
patient in such cases may remain
comparatively well for years, or for
the rest of his life. But what as a
rule has really happened is that the
patient’s unconscious need to punish
himself has been assuaged for the
time being by his sufferings; while
the sense of guilt on which the
need 'is based remains and may
cause a fresh disturbance any time
that the unconscious situation
changes. Real cure can come only
when the patient has gained “in*
sight.” v
Is “Dianetics” dangerous?
Answer: Most psychiatrists have
always said so, but fresh affirma
tion of the charge is offered in a
recent book by a physician who
was once the medical director at
the Dianetics Research Foundation.
In “A Doctor’s Report on Dianetics”
Dr. Joseph Augustus Winter says
that the practice of laymen attempt
ing to “audit” one another (probe
into one another’s unconscious
minds) is so dangerous as actually
to have caused insanity in dianetic
patients. And of course the danger
would be greatest between married
people. You have no more business
fooling with your wife’s unconsci
ous mind than trying to take out her
appendix.

Meat, Other Proteins Are Daily Need
By Dr. James W. Barton
I WRITE OFTEN about meat,
despite the fact that it is ex
pensive, because all the new re
search work on food and nutrition
establish the fact that it is now
known to be the most important
food of the daily diet. This is be
cause meat is rich in protein, the
builder of new and repairer of old
or worn cells of the body.
Meat is important for every in
dividual, whether of normal weight,
underweight or overweight. It
meets the needs of the individual
boy, girl, man. or woman of nor
mal weight because of its building
and repairing of body cells. It
meets the needs of the underweight
because it helps to maintain any
solid or muscle tissue gained, and
it helps to reduce weight because
of its extra or dynamic action in
burning up fats and starches and
preventing the storing of fat in and
on the body. Research workers
have found that neither fats nor
starches have so direct and stimu
lating effect upon our tissues.
Proteins (meat, eggs, poultry,
fish) have, as pointed out by Drs.
Lusk and Bogert, also a stimulating
effect upon the ductless glands,
especially the thyroid in the neck
which has been well named the
balance wheel of •the body. It is
the juice of the thyroid gland that
regulates the rate at which the
body processes work, and as pro
teins cause the thyroid to become
more active, it means that all the
body processes work faster, more
heat is manufactured, and so more
fat melts feway. Thus in all re
ducing diets, while fats and starch
es are always reduced, meats are
never reduced.
In his book, “The CiviUzed Dis
eases,” Dr. Boris Sokoloff states,
“It is now common knowledge that
protein foods such as lean meat
are slenderizing because proteins
burn more calories in the body than
they provide; 100 calories of pro
tein cause the body to increase its
heat by about 150 calories. And this
excess heat will burn extra'fat.”
