HE next gray I locate is in a tree 
that is partly masked with dead 
leaves, one of those oak trees which, 
‘for some reason or another, retains its 
leaves with a tenacity that defies com- 
parison, in fact holding on to them far 
into the winter, too. And up there, 
somewhere in the wilderness of those 
branches that squirrel was hid. He was 
veritably an aldermanic one of his 
kind, too, indeed I had hardly seen a 
gray squirrel so large in a long time. 
At first at a distance he looked more 
like a small woodchuck than anything.

miss that one if I have to remain here 
all day. So, thereupon, I sought out a 
convenient fallen tree, took a seat and 
began my patient watch. 
So then I took an inventory of the 
tree, starting at the top and mentally 
dividing it off into agreeable sections. 
Thus I moved on from Section One, fol- 
lowing the “dotted line” into Section 
Two. And so I finally got to the bot- 
tom. “Well, the old cuss,’ I muttered, 
rubbing my eyes and still believing that 
there was a hole in the tree as big as 
a hat, even though I had satisfied my- 
self on that score that it was not so. 
I was just on the point of getting up 
for another reconnoiter of the tree when 
right back of me a rifle cracked and I 
started up, Charlie was standing there, 
rifle in hand, a smile cut from ear to 
ear; and then his merriment knew no 
bounds. For out of that old oak had 
fallen the gray, head over heels, mak- 
ing the branches swish as he came 
down. : 



A ELL, when in thunder did you ar- 
rive?” I asked, recovering from} 
the surprise. “Do you want to scare 
the life out of me. You know when 
a person is keyed up the way I was, 
watching for that buck squirrel when 
you fire a shot right by a guy’s ears 
he’s liable to faint.” 
Charlie explained: “I came over to 
see what you were doing. There must 
be better shooting over this way. So 
I moved in on you and I was standing 
right over there back of that tree when 
you came running in, when you treed 
that gray up there. I didn’t move out 
of my tracks but I solved the problem 
of his hiding place before you did.” 

AVAJO Indian Rugs are woven by hand of sheep’s wool in fascinating designs 
and colorings. They are the only hand wrought floor coverings made by a 
primitive people in the United States. 


The weaving is done by the women and young girls, the latter being taught some of the steps as 
early as four years old. The great fear of the old Chiefs is that as civilization encroaches upon the 
tribe, the art of weaving will gradually die out, and every effort is being made to perpetuate the 
remarkable artistry and crafthood that has made the Rugs of the Navajos superior in some ways 
to Orientals 
Navajos are alike on both sides; they do not curl; easy to clean; wear for more years than any 
other floor covering you can name; inexpensive. Just the attributes you are looking for in an ideal 
rug. The large majority of rugs come in a combination of gray, black, white and red, with either 
the red, white or gray predominating. For living-rooms and porches gray backgrounds are generally 
the best; for bedrooms, bathrooms and camping blankets, get white backgrounds; and for dens, 
cozy corners, couch covers, etc., the red backgrounds give that fine touch of color that warms the 
heart and lends a distinctive air to the scheme of decoration.
