ter. After that vve stripped in a brisk 
breeze and wrung out our clothes, then 
climbed back into the clammy things. 
There was an ominous silence between us. 
I made up my mind I’d bite my tongue off 
before I’d speak first and I guess Clem 
felt the same by the way he sawed wood. 
After collecting the two paddles which had 
drifted ashore we dumped the water from 
the canoe and continued down river, both 
of us still sulking. We were about as 
much company for each other as a couple 
of clams. Naturally I’m a sociable cuss 
and I had to watch myself every minute to 
keep from saying something to Clem. 
I T was nearly five p. m. when we turned 
into Pine Stream and began paddling 
on the home stretch campward. We 
had covered half the distance without a 
word when, turning a bend, I saw ahead a 
handsome bull moose standing belly-deep 
among the lily pads. "Look, Clem!” I 
As we neared camp I related the school 
reader story of “Stick to Your Bush” 
whispers off my guard; “ain’t he a beaut!” 
“A-h-h-a-h!” taunts Clem; “you spoke 
first, didn’t you!” “Huh!” says I; “did 
you think I was tryin’ to keep from speak- 
in’ to you, Clem? Gee, I wouldn’t be so 
mean as that.” “Well, I’m glad you busted 
the silence, Newt,” confesses Clem; “I’ve 
been chokin’ to talk.” After that we were 
as friendly as you please. 
As we made our camp in the dusk says 
Clem, “Fine bunch of big trout we got to¬ 
day over on Rapid, eh, Newt?” “Yeh,” 
sighs I; “say, Clem, jevver read that piece 
in the old school reader entitled, ‘Stick to 
Your Bush’?” “Nope,” says Clem. “Well, 
it goes like this,” says I—and I told him. 
OLD TIMERS’ SHOOTS 
HE trapshooting calendar offers some¬ 
thing new this year in the “old-tim¬ 
ers’ ” shoots. 
These “old-timers’ ” shoots will be staged 
by many gun clubs during the months of 
May and June. Their purpose is to get 
together at least once each year the “old- 
time” trapshooters, and as many others as 
care to attend, and hold a shoot in honor 
of the veterans. It is a reunion event 
which deserves to be encouraged. 
An “old-timer” does not necessarily mean 
an old man. The definition of an old-timer 
in trapshooting is a person who has been 
shooting at the traps for 15 years or more. 
For several years “old-timers’ ” shoots 
have been staged by a number of clubs, 
and their success prompted the idea of 
making the “old-timers’ ” shoots a national 
proposition. * 
Indications are that there will be 500 of 
these shoots held. There are more vet¬ 
erans in trapshooting than in any other 
sport and there is a saying “o.nce a trap- 
shooter, always a trapshooter.”
