HEAP BIG 
Fishing 
The minute the ice is out 
they’re jumping—the hig, 
hungry trout, salmon and 
bass, down in 
MAINE 
For excitement and pure joy 
there’s no sport like it. 
But you’ll get something more than 
big fish. You’ll get the spring air of 
these woods and a new kind of appetite, 
and a rest that will make you over. 
Only 5 Hours from Boston 
Only 10 from New York 
Stay at a comfortable fishing camp 
or hotel. Great cooking. 5,000 lakes 
to choose from. 
Our free booklets, ‘ ‘I Go-A-Fishing’ ’ and 
“Maine Guides,” tell you where and 
how to go. Send for them.

a cheap but fairly accurate watch. The nickel 
case watches costing from a dollar upward are 
quite good enough. The watch is best carried in 
the breast pocket and secured with a leather 
thong to the buttonhole of the shirt. When the 
sun is seen the watch may be made to serve as a 
crude compass by pointing the hour hand to the 
sun, when south will be found half way between 
the hour hand and the XII on the dial. How¬ 
ever, it is a good plan to carry a small compass. 
The most dependable kinds are those contained 
in a watch case, and provided with arrow shaped 
needles, as 'the blued bar needle is difficult to read 
in a dim light. 
The hunting or sheath-knife is called upon to 
serve many uses, and no woodsman would think 
of venturing far without a stout bladed knife at 
his belt. In choosing the hunting knife, the hard 
tempered blade should be passed by, likewise the 
soft steel affair. A medium temper is by all odds 
the most dependable, for it is preferable to have 
the edge turn rather than break off short like a 
carrot. A five or six-inch blade is the most use¬ 
ful length, and a good knife may be picked up, 
with or without hilt, and with leather sheath, for 
one dollar and a half. A medium large jacknife 
with three blades is also handy for making re¬ 
pairs; the “easy opening’’ kind, with thumb hole 
in handle, is a good companion. 
For carrying a supply of matches any one of 
the waterproof boxes sold for this purpose is 
good. The metal boxes are waterproof and dura¬ 
ble, but the screw top boxes of hard rubber or 
vulcanite are fairly tight and will float if dropped 
fuses will be found handy for lighting the pipe 
or fire in the wind or rain.

Indians Annual Tournament. 
Programs for the fifteenth annual tournament of The 
Indians will be ready for the mail within the next two 
or three weeks. This is going to be some shoot, be¬ 
lieve me. The Tribe will offer $1,000 in cash and 
trophies and if there is a chance to make it any more, 
the shooters may be sure to get the benefit. The shoot 
will be held at Cedar Point, one of the pleasantest 
summer resorts on the Great Lakes, on June 23, 24 and 
25, with a practice program for June 22. The Tourna¬ 
ment Committee, consisting of men who know the 
shooting game, from A to Z, have had several meet¬ 
ings in the last month, and have practically decided 
upon the program, only a few minor details remaining 
to be adjusted. There will be a total of 175 targets on 
the first and second days, and 150 on the third day in 
the regular program, which is under the Squier Money- 
Back System, with the losses paid on each day. This

How many times you miss the far fliers be¬ 
cause you haven’t quite the necessary shooting 
power. 
The advantage is yours if you can count on 
your gun at 50 and 60 yards.

makes it possible for an amateur who may find himself 
out of condition, to receive his losses without being 
compelled to shoot through the entire program. Then 
on the first and second days there will be special 
trophy events, and on the third day the Mallory Cup 
handicap event when 50 targets will be shot. Twenty- 
five or more trophies will be given, and if there is 
any particular thing for which the committee has not 
offered one of these trophies the members would like 
to be put wise, and they will remedy the matter. The 
trophies will be of unusual value this year, and ones 
that the winners can make use of, and be proud to own 
and exhibit. An innovation in the running of the an¬ 
nual Pow-wow will be made this year. In the past 
the squaws have been left to their own devices for 
amusement while their husbands and sweethearts were 
on the firing line, gathering in the shekels, and losing 
them. Time has hung heavy on their hands, but this 
year things are “a-going” to be different. The Tribe 
at its annual conclave last year, provided the necessary 
"iron men,” and High Chief Long Talk (the Hon. Tom 
A. Marshall) appointed an efficient committee of Braves 
to look after the entertainment of the squaws and pap- 
pooses. This committee has been supplemented by a 
committee of the squaws, and a program laid out which 
includes excursions to Put-in-Bay, and other interesting 
points; boat rides, shopping excursions, dancing mu- 
sicales, card parties, etc., etc. If the squaws and visit¬ 
ing pale-face ladies go the entire rounds, they will have 
no time to get lonesome. Then there will be the an¬ 
nual “Dog Feast” for the Braves and their squaws; the 
assembly of the Tribe in war paint and feathers in the 
lobby of the Breakers; the war dance and the introduc¬ 
tion of the Braves to their pale face friends. Cedar 
Point has been called the Atlantic City of the west, and 
it well deserves the title. A beach of white sand, eight 
or nine miles long, makes it an ideal place for bathing, 
and with a wind from the lake, the surf is equal to that 
of the Atlantic Coast. The traps are installed on the 
beach only a short distance from the hotel, the targets 
being thrown over the lake, with nothing to prevent a 
clear view as they sail out over the water. Ask any 
Indian who has attended the previous shoots of the 
Tribe at this place what kind of a time he had, and his 
answer will induce you to come in June. Programs and 
information may be had of the secretary. D. H. Eaton,
