THE OPENING DAY 
ON BOB WHITE 
(continued from page 525) 
R could as easily have been when you 
fired,” I objected, “that your pellets 
struck—” 
. Gracefully Mac waived all claim to the 
bird, and forced it in the slit in the back 
of my hunting coat. 
W E turned into the woods. Each dog 
had a single. Mac missed in a 
very annoying tangle of hazel and 
postoaks. I knocked down mine, just as 
it was topping some red brush. 
“I was kind enough to give you a tip on 
incomers, how about this brush shooting? 
Give me a few tips.” Mac asked so good 
naturedly that I listened attentively. His 
shooting had been confined to open coun- 
try, and the brush promised to puzzle him. 
I am not the kind so skilled that my 
advice is worth anything. But since you 
favoied me in that line on the snipe 
marshes, I will do the best I can. Do just 
as you advised me on jacks—snap shoot 
them, but always hold high on the bird as 
it is invariably rising.” 
At once, and right in that thicket the 
setter lover improved, stopping five fast 
fliers consecutively, while I missed half of 
my shots. 
We returned to open country, staring 
expectantly at the black ragweed and saf¬ 
fron sedge fields. The pointer set the 
pace. The land sloped nicely, and the 
farms were cut up into small fields of fif¬ 
teen or twenty acres. Between two stub¬ 
ble fields, that had almost been denuded of 
cover by constant pasturing, was one of 
corn. Between rows the profuseness of 
foxtail was noticeable. The fall rains had 
accelerated the growth of this pest almost 
to gigantic heights. In places it was waist 
high, and some of the stalks were so heav¬ 
ily seed laden with its yellow, millet-like 
heads, that their weight bore them to the 
ground. For a long time we had no sight 
of the dogs. 
You take up one row, and I will take ' 
up another,” I began, “and I will call when 
whoa, Jocko Master! Here they are, 
Mac, stuck tighter than glue on a covey!”

T HOSE two dogs presented a picture 
worthy of study. Jocko was stand¬ 
ing straight, almost glaring into the 
eyes of the smaller dog, who faced him in 
marble-like, statuesque pose. Only a pace 
divided them. Evidently the two had come 
up on the same covey unexpectedly and 
simultaneously. 
Waiting for Mac he came promptly at 
my announcement, stepped into the birds 
and put them up. When one covey flushed, 
another flushed, and then another. That 
field thundered with the wings of quails. 
It had been a veritable gathering place of 
the birds. Every bird within a radius of 
a mile must have deserted scantier feed- I 
ing and have flocked there. 
“How many, Mac?” 
He shook his head appraisingly. “Lord 
only knows, but there’s a right smart lot 
of them!” 
As the sun dropped back of its curtain 
of hardwoods two happy, weary hunters, 
with pockets distended with game trudged 
homeward. Footsore Jocko dragged be 
hind Mac. The irrepressible pointer con-

knowledge and belief as to the circumstances and 
conditions under which stockholders and security 
holders who do not appear upon the books of the

a capacity other than that of a bona fide owner; 
and this affiant has. no reason to believe that any 
other person, association, or corporation has any 
interest direct or indirect in the said stock, bonds, 
or other securities than as so stated by him.
