FOREST AND STREAM AUGUST, 1917 
Moose Heads 
of exceptional size were secured in the 
PROVINCE OF QUEBEC 
in September and October, 1916, 
several of them with antlers having a 
spread of five to six feet. 
The Bull Moose, which attacked 
Colonel Theodore Roosevelt was 
killed by him within fifty miles of the 
city of Quebec. 
Mrs. Hi. G. Campbell, Jr., of New 
York has a record of a black bear 
and a large bull moose at Lake 
Kiskisink. 
The big bull moose of Mayor Carter 
Harrison of Chicago was killed in 
Northern Quebec. 
Caribou and Deer 
are abundant in parts of Quebec 
Province. , 
THE BEST TROUT FISHING 
in the world is in the Province of Que¬ 
bec, and so are the best Guides both for 
fishing and hunting. Read Henry van 
Dyke’s description of some of them in 
“Little Rivers.’’

a resident of it or not, or by joining one

beautiful “Highlands of On¬ 
tario,” fulfils every dream of the 
fisherman. There the bass and the 
trout swarm the waters of the fifteen 
hundred forest-walled lakes and rivers, and 
they are gamiest of fish, the kind that fight 
to the finish and send the thrill of con¬ 
quest through the veins of the angler. I'f

make a specialty of catering to the camp¬ 
ers. 
Comfort is the keynote for the clothes 
worn about the camp—and even those that 
the majority wear out from town. Bath¬ 
ing suits under khaki trousers form the 
costume most popular with the men, and 
with the women khaki skirts with simple 
waists or middy blouses are the prevailing 
styles. The costumes for actual bathing 
smack more of originality and sensible 
economy than of the modes that happen to 
be prevailing on more “stylish” beaches. 
There is a nominal charge of two dol¬ 
lars a week ground rent for tenting, or 
twenty-five dollars for the season. Judge 
Frank Decker has this rental in charge, as 
lessee of the beach. He is judge of the 
court at Croton, and with his amiable wife 
is looked on by the campers as one of the 
beach’s chief attractions. 
D O I hear some hesitators asking, 
What is there in the way of amuse¬ 
ment? Well, that depends upon what 
you consider amusement. If you refer to 
the movies, or a dancing pavilion or the 
stereotyped attractions of the “amusement” 
parks, don’t go to Croton beach to find 
them. For there are none there. But if 
you just like to loaf around your own little 
tent and are satisfied for company with 
fifty or a hundred congenial souls on the 
same mission bent, Croton Beach is rich 
in opportunities. There is fishing, boating, 
canoeing, bathing and no end of clean 
wholesome fun, on and in the water and on 
shore, all day and until a sensible hour in 
the evening. 
The little beach is most thickly populated 
of course during the week-ends, but any 
intervening holiday is taken advantage of 
by the “regulars.” The week-end begins in 
a modest way on Friday, when some of the 
luckier ones can get the extra day off, or 
some of their folks come up that far ahead 
to get the ground ready. The all-season 
camps are generally given a desultory over¬ 
hauling in anticipation of visitors or ad¬ 
ditions to the party—or perhaps the head 
of the family who is kept in town during 
the week. 
His change of environment from the one 
he has left behind is striking. As he ar¬ 
rives in camp perhaps twilight is kissing 
dow r n the lids of day. Across the Hudson 
the sun has set amid a flush of crimson 
and gold. To dim the creeping shadows 
of approaching night the moon’s pale disc 
emerges, sending a shimmering light across 
the water to barely silhouette the low 
yachts anchored in the offing; and perhaps 
a giant river boat looms from around the 
little peninsula, strung with twinkling
