A Few New Good Books 
GLACIER NATIONAL PARK (Its Trails 
and Treasures). By Mathilde Edith Holtz 
and Katharine Isabel Bemis. Fully illustrat- 
ed from photographs. It was in PJIO that 
President Taft signed the bill which made 
nearly a million acres of magnificent Rocky 
Mountain wilderness into the greatest Na- 
tional Park in the United States. To-day 
Glacier National Park is a tourist’s paradise, 
traversed by many roads and equipped with 
beautiful hotels. One is quite safe in 
prophesying that this Alpine wonderland will 
eventually he to travelers what Niagara Falls 
was to an earlier generation — what the Yose- 
mite, Yellowstone and the Grand Canyon 
of the Colorado are to the generation of to- 
day. Cloth. $2.50. 
THE ROMANCE OF THE BEAVER. By A. 
Radcliff Dugmore. The object of this work 
is to provide a book on the subject of the 
beaver free from exaggeration and not too 
technical, and finally to call attention to the 
question of protesting the most interesting 
animal to-day extant. Clotli. $2.00. 
THE SPORTSMAN’S 'WORKSHOP. By 
Warren H. Miller. A practical how-to-make 
book for the sportsman. Working drawings 
and complete descriptions for tent making, 
pack and trail gear, leather working, camp 
stoves and cook kits, rod repairing and lude

•repairing and fitting with sights, sling strap, 
etc., how to make a gun and rod cabinet,

NEWFOUNDLAND 
A Country of Fish and Game 
A Paradise for the Camper and Angler 
Ideal Canoe Trips 
The country traversed by the System of the Reid Newfoundland Company, Ltd., is exceedingly rich in 
all kinds of Fish and Game. All along the route of the Railway are streams famous for their Salmon and 
Trout fishing, also Caribou barrens. Americans who have been fishing and hunting in Newfoundland 
say there is no other country in the world in which so good fishing and hunting can be secured and with 
such ease as in Newfoundland. Information, together with illustrated Booklet and Folder, cheerfully 
forwarded upon application to 
F. E. PITTMAN, General Passenger Agent, 
Reid Newfoundland Company, Ltd. 
St. John’s, Newfoundland 
carcass. He dove and never came up. 
Where did he go? Under the ice. Who 
says a canvas-back can’t die game? 
Game alive or dead; and the finest kind 
of game at that. 
VWHILE this little tragedy was being 
’’ ’’ enacted, the usual thing happened. 
A nice flock of whistlers made several 
eager attempts to join our decoys. 
They seemed to consider it very rude in 
us to interfere so with their designs. 
They circled back, again and again; 
their rapidly moving little wings whist- 
ling musically in the air. The occa- 
sional plop, plop, from the boys across 
the way indicated that we were not 
alone in our moderate success. We 
bagged a few more during the after- 
noon, mostly whistlers and black-heads. 
It appeared that most of the ducks had 
found a refuge in some other opening 
farther up the river; possibly off the 
mouth of Leeds’ Creek. 
The great flocks were gone ; only a 
few solitary stragglers remained to offer 
us occasional shots. Silently we watched 
the crimson sun sink into the heavy gray 
cloud bank beyond the low black silhou- 
ette of the western shore. Little purple 
cloud fragments; tinged with pink, rap- 
idly turned to a leaden gray as they 
were blown across the glowing Western 
sky ahead of the deepening shadows. 
The dark forms of Dick and Searls were 
seen approaching over the ice. We sur- 
veyed with pride the moderate fruits of 
our afternoon sport. My companion 
opened his rusty old gun with a snap. 
“Let’s go,” said Long John. 
THE LAND OF THE 
GOLDEN TROUT 
{Continued from page 65) 
to inexperienced animals, or those not 
properly shod. 
We forded the river in an hour after 
starting down, and taking the down river 
trail for a few miles, made camp in a 
beautiful grove of aspen near the upper 
end of Kern Lake. The lake is merely 
a widening of the river a mile long, and 
is not deep; also it has many snags, so 
we chose the river fishing, and got out 
heavier leaders in anticipation of the 
famous Kern rainbows. 
W HILE Jimmie washed the dishes 
from our early supper I cast a pro- 
spective fly along the marshy grass bank 
of the river, just above the lake intake. 
The water swirled along smoothly, and 
not too swift, in a channel about 75 feet 
wide, and trout were rising every place. 
I soon landed a pound trout, and several 
more not quite so large, then worked 
upstream to where a big fellow was 
smashing at flying insects. 
I placed the tail fly just outside a 
trailing mat of water-cress, and he took 
it savagely. His first dash took him so 
far across the stream I applied the 
brakes, fearing an empty Teel — then felt 
the line go slack — and reeled in to find 
the little fly hook straightened out. 
He was a monster of five, perhaps ten 
pounds, and missed a lot of beneficial 
exercise, as I would have put him back 
after the fight.
