ten out for use. The oar locks are fastened to 
about 8 inches of cord with a little snap hook 
on the end which is snapped into a ring inside 
the cock-pit. The rudder is quickly unshipped 
by pulling out a metal rod that holds it in place. 
The hatch covering the cock-pit when the boat 
is not in use, is made in two sections; the for¬ 
ward half may be left on if sailing in rough 
water, effectually shedding any seas which may 
break over the bow. The forward section is 
fastened on by hooks on the inside—one at the 
forward end and one at each of the after 
•corners; the other section is held by cleats at 
forward end which fit under the edge of the 
forward section, and a padlock and hasp on the 
•outside at the back. The oars, rig, shells, etc., 
can be left right in the boat safely by locking 
•on the hatches. 
Under the after deck is a water tight drawer 
in which matches, tobacco, shells and other 
“dry” articles may be easily gotten at and safely 
•stored. 
This boat is a little larger than the average 
punty, but one can go the night before to the 
.particular point on which one wishes to shoot 
and sleep very comfortably in this size of boat 
A waterproof bag which, when not in use is 
rolled up compactly and stowed under the deck, 
is filled with grass to make a comfortable mat¬ 
tress. With a thermos bottle full of steaming 
•coffee, a Sterno solid alcohol lamp to boil eggs, 
•some bacon sandwiches, there is no difficulty 
about a good breakfast. There are two objects 
in going out the night before; the first is that 
in the South Bay, as elsewhere, good ducking 
points are scarce and “first come first served.” 
The second is that one can thatch his punty, 
set out his stool, and make all his arrangements 
for receiving the ducks in proper style in the 
evening and thereby avoid blundering around 
before sunrise and scaring any birds that may 
have spent the night in the vicinity. Of course, 
one may have to change the stool around a 
little in the morning in case the wind has 
changed during the night. 
Although the punty is a little larger than most, 
it is not too large or heavy to prevent one from 
picking up dead birds and stool comfortably; 
tin fact, the boat handles very easily. It is not 
The Taste of “PIPER” Is Uniq 
In no other tobacco can you get the refreshing, 
tasty, fruity flavor that a chew of “PIPER” 
gives you. “PIPER” is the world’s greatest chew¬ 
ing tobacco—wholesome, appetizing and delightfully 
satisfying. 
PIPER Hsiihisck 
CHEWING TOBACCO 
The ripe white Burley leaf of which “PIPER” is made is 
unequalled for chewing, and this rare leaf is made still more 
delicious by blending through it the famous “PIPER” flavor. 
Chew “PIPER” once — and you’ll never again be satisfied 
with any other tobacco.
