A visitor that will bear watching is a large Skate. He has a 

 long rough tail at the beginning of which is a wicked spike which 

 he can swing upwards and drive through a boot into one's flesh 

 making a bad wound and causing blood-poisoning. A rare and 

 lively little visitor is a Marbled Angler or Segasus Fish. The one 

 I found was about the third recorded as taken from Rhode Island 

 waters. His coloring is similar to that of kelp. His side fins 

 resemble hands with the fingers frayed out like kelp. It is 

 said that he will lie in wait among the kelp, which he so much 

 resembles, and will dart out and attack a fish his own size. This

 wind sac. He has long tentacles provided with stinging cells 

 with which he reaches out to catch his food."

 addition you don't leave behind you a trail of blood and death. 

 Many of you have cameras, I'm sure, and doubtless you bring 

 them out on special occasions to take a picture of Uncle Ben 

 cr Baby Joe. But have you ever taken them with you into the 

 country to take a picture of a deer or a robin? If you can do 

 that, you deserve the Indian name of "Gitchi-Gaossed," — Mighty 

 Hunter. 



The good camera-hunter needs every qualification of the big- 

 game hunter. He must be clear-eyed, steady-handed, and quick 

 to take advantage of a moment's opportunity. In addition he 

 must have a double portion of patience and a will to overcome all 

 obstacles. In return he gets a true love of the big out-doors and
