Sighting Rule This rule should always be re membered when rifle sights are being adjusted: Always move the rear sight in the direction in which you desire the rifle to shoot. Move the front sight in the OPPOSITE di rection. The front or rear sight can ' be moved in its notch by placing a short rod of brass or copper against it and tapping the rod with a ham mer, while the barrel itself is sup ported against a hard block of u wood. , Set the rifle sights to hit where you aim at the average distance of most of your shots in your hunting territory. Carefully chèck the ex act position of your sights as soon as you have “ sighted in\ so that they may be returnee) to proper alignment if accidentally jarred.out of alignment. The sights on all rifles are care fully adjusted before the guns leave the factory. If your eyes are exactly normal and you hold the gun in the proper manner, your rifle should shoot true. However, there is considerable variation in the eyes of hunters and all shooters * do not hold in just the same man ner. Consequently, one man may get bulls-eyes consistently while another, using the same rifle, might find his bullets going wide of the mark. The sights then may be adjusted to make the necessary shooting corrections. A A A “Lady Size” Three-pound Spanish mack erel, like the one ..displayed here, are “ lady - size” and “ ladylike - got” according to Miss Pauline Dixon, Moreliead City, N. C., who holds this specimen. She explains that they are easily caught by trolling lure on surface of the water. A A A Free Booklet The Remington Arms company * has issued a “ Handbook on Gun Club Cashiering” to assist gun club members in the many tasks falling to those who are called upon to act as cashier at a shoot. All any interested sportsman has to do to get a copy \of the book is write to W. H. Foster, Jr., mana ger trap and skeet section, Rem ington Arms, Inc., Bridgeport, Conn. The handbook thoroughly covers every problem that might come before the gun club cashier, and lists many systems of money division. There is no charge for the booklet. A A A According to experiments con ducted by a Columbia university professor, the ten top-ranking ani- * mals, in the order of their respec tive intelligence are: chimpanzee, orangutan, gorilla, monkey, dog, cat, raccoon, elephant, pig and horse. A A A Bluegill Popular Even though fall is advanced and the tang of winter is in the air over a great section of the United States, there is still some consolation left for the angler who has learned just how much sport the bluegill—or bream—can provide. These fish may be taken, even on flies, until the waters of his habitat freeze over—certainly that is the case—in Kentucky, at least. While small worms and minnows are the usually accepted diet of the bluegill, the fly rod is becoming in creasingly popular in taking these small, but gahiey fish. Some ang- • lers, referring to the bluegill’s fighting propensities, assert that if the bluegill ever got to weigh lour or five pounds, he’d pull the angler in the pond! A A A Swan on Rampage A rampaging swan that attacked automqbUes was reported in the vicinity of Grande Prairie, Alberta. Many complaints were received from metorists, and one told the Mounted Police that he had to de fend himself from the bird with his skis. The bird was one of two that had been making their home in the vi cinity for several years and its mate had been killed by an auto mobile. mustie?® TH E D I L L O N E X A M I N E E BROADWAY AND M A IN STREET I b s e n , S h m i b s e n , S h e S a i d ; C o n f i d e W i t h M e E v e r y t h i n g ------- —— ------- — By BILLY ROSE -------- : ------- -------- I recently read a magazine piece entitled, “What’s Wrong with Modem Marriage,” in which the author opined that the divorce rate would drop lik£ an over-ripe apple if the average wife showed more interest in her husband’s business and hobbies. Well, mebbe ,so, but you can’t prove it by my Uncle Charlie and my Aunt Frieda.. . . Charlie and Frieda are a couple of oldsters who have been living in a four-room flat on the East Side almost as long as magazines have been printing articles entitled, “ What’s Wrong with Modern Marriage.” Ever since their nuptials, they’ve had at least one argument a day, and when they stop scrapping that’s when I’ll start worrying about them. I remember an evening back in the days when I was knee-high to the Allen Street curbstone when Aunt Billy Bose Frieda came home from the movies with an air of unwavering nobility. “ Charlie,” she said tensely, “how is business at the shop, good, bad or fair to the mid dle?” “ Eh - peh,\ an swered my uncle. (“ Eh - peh,” I hasten to translate, means that things being what they a r e , if a man breaks even he can consider himself a runaway success.) “ ‘Eh-peh’ is no answer,” said Frieda. “ I am sick of living in a doll’s house.” “ I see,” said Charlie. “ Tonight in the nickelodeon was showing Nazimova in ‘A Doll’s House’ by Hymie Ibsen.” “ Ibsen, Shmibsen,\ said Frieda. “ You can’t push me out of your life. Confide in • m e everything, come thick or thin.” \This I'll confide \ said Charlie. \ When l come home from the shop I’m tired out like a dog. Bad enough I live through the day without it should repeat on me like radishes.\ However, with my Aunt Frieda, like Columbus, there was no turn ing back. She kept picking away until Charlie itemized the day’s doings—everything from punch-in to punch-out. • • * BUT THAT WAS only the begin ning. The payoff came a few weeks later when Charlie was fixing to at tend his weekly pinochle session. ”1 want you should teach me how to play,” said Frieda. “ Pinochle!” said Charlie. “ Al ways you are saying pinochle is for loafers and no-goods.\ “ I ain’t saying different,” said Frieda, but pinochle is y o u r passion and I don’t want it should take my place in your life.” Now, my uncle was a broad minded man. When women began to bob their hair, his comment was, “ They want to ventilate their necks, so let them.\ But pinochle —well, that was another matter. Nevertheless, he knew better than to balk his wife outright and, as he explained the game to Frieda, all the while thinking bitterly of the coffeehouse session he was missing, a plot began to hatch in his head. Next evening he was home early with a bag of wool and knitting needles. “ Frieda,” he said, “ how you make a cable stitch?\ Half an hour later he was in the kitchen tasting the soup. “ It needs a pinch paprika,” he said. “ You’re giving me point-outs how to make soup?\ “ Who’s teaching? A woman cooks and shops, a husband should simi lar cook and shop. How much you pay for cabbage?” “ Five cents a head.” “ At Fuzarri’s on Avenue A, Is four cents.” • * * FRIEDA DROPPED a handful of cutlery in the sink.“ Fuzarri’s is six blocks away.” “ So what? The exercise will do you good.” That Saturday night, Charlie persuaded a couple of his cronies to come over for a pinochle ses sion and put up with his wife’s playing. At 12 o’clock Frieda said, \I can’t keep my eyes apart. Maybe you could play three- W B ^ a ' 0 P « r .

Sunday, Charlie put on his best tie. \Today I go with you to see Theda Bara,\ he said. “ Is not necessary to go with,\ said Frieda. “ I got a date with the ladies.” “ Where you go, I go,” said Charlie. Frieda, afraid Charlie would laugh at Theda’s amatory exer cises and humiliate her in front of her friends, pulled down the flag. “ Marriage is not simple a ball and chain,” she said. “ You go your way and I’ll go to Loew’s.” Charlie moved in for the kill. “ No more schmoose about the shop?” The F i c t i o n * RANGE RIDER By Richard H. Wilkinson BY INEZ GERIIARD A SINGER has to be something more than just wonderful to make her professional debut on “ The Telephone Hour.” 20-year- old Barbara Gibson did it Septem ber 12, and will be heard again.on the program in February. Gladys Swarthout promptly phoned her praise; Lily Pons, who had missed Corner C HUCK HANSON and Baldy Davis, range riders for the Circle H cattle outfit, were pretty disgusted the day young Johnny Howard rode into their camp and handed them a note signed by Old Man Hadley, the Circle H’s owner. The note read in part: “ This will introduce Johnny How ard from New York, the son of an old friend of mine. He wants to be 3 'M in u t e a real cowboy Fiction *nd r “ ?ending him out to you boys. Show him the ropes. Jim.” Summoning Baldy, Chuck led the way out of earshot. Ain’t the boss cute?” he said sarcastically. “ Handin’ us this nurse maid’s job. By Gad, one day Jim Hadley will go too far.’* “ The way I figure it,” said Baldy, “ the boss is passin’ the buck. Since this fashion-plate Is the son of a friend he can’t just give him the works and send him home, so he puts it up to us.” Chuck spat and scratched his head. “ By gum, mebbe you’re right. Shucks, that’s it exactly! Come on, we gotta do like he asks. We’ll make a cow hand outer this dude or die tryin’ .” They returned to the camp where waited Johnny. “ O. K„ feller,” Baldy said. “The boss allows we gotta make a cow hand outer yuh. Your first lesson is to 'get down off that flea-bitten nag you’re a-straddle and learn to stick on a real hoss.” “ Well,” said Johnny, “ I was won dering if I was going to have to ride this old crow bait.\ Chuck and Baldy exchanged meaning looks. Baldy went out to the corral and returned leading a sleek-jteoking black that kept his ears laid back permanently just to show folks how he felt about any one who thought he could ride him. Confidently Johnny swung aboard while the two range riders climbed to the top rail of the corral fence. Baldy was a little nervous. The black, with Johnny astride him, suddenly galvanized into ac tion. It shot straight into the air and came down with all four legs as solid as gate posts. It sunfished and buckled and bucked. It got down and rolled over, brushed against the fence, reared on all fours, plunged and bucked some more. And presently, sweating and blowing, it stood docile and Johnny Howard was still on its back. John ny grinned at the open-mouthed spectators. T HE RANGE RIDERS rubbed their eyes. The thing that bad happened was like an hallucination. They weren’t convinced. Chuck slid down off the corral. “ We’ll now go into lesson number two,” he remarked, “ which in cludes bulldogging. Ever bulldog a steer, mister?” Without waiting for the dude’s re ply, Chuck, who had won laurels as a bulldogger, galloped after a steer, threw and roped him in rec ord time. Pleased and swaggering he returned. “ See how it’s done?” he asked. “ Yes,” said Johnny, “ I see. Mind if I try it on that big steer?\ He tried it. He threw and roped the big steer in three seconds less time than Chuck. After a roping exhibition Johnny, without being chal lenged, produced a six-gun and demonstrated some fast and accurate shooting. In fact, it was so fast and so accurate that Baldy and Chuck didn’t offer to exploit their own prow ess. When the shooting was over the range riders went into a huddle. Presently they returned to Johnny. Chuck stuck out his hand. “ Mister, we hereby apologize. We know when we’re licked.\ Johnny grinned. “ Well,” he said, “ I reckon that was Uncle Jim’s idea. At first. Then when he found out I was a circus performer he saw a chance to play a joke on you boys. I learned all my stuff in a circus. I got to be pretty good, because I liked the work. In fact, I liked it so well I decided to become a real cowboy. The truth is, I don’t know a darned thing about cow punching and I’d appreciate it a heap if you boys would let me stay and teach me a few things.” “ Teach you!” declared Chuck. \Ha! Mister, consider yourself t’home.” SSWORD PUZZLE LAST WEEK'S ANSWER M 8 . 11 . 13. 15. ACROSS 2 1. Butts 3 5. Buddies 4. 9. Affirm 10. Leave out 5. 11. Steps over a fence 8. 12.
