Sketches of character and incident with rod and gun from 
childhood to manhood; from the killing of little fishes 
and birds to a buffalo hynt. By Fred Mather. Illus- 
trated. Price, $2.00. , 
It was a happy thought that prompted Mr. Fred Mather 
to write pf his fishing companions. The chapters were 
received with a warm welcome at the beginning and 
have been of sustained interest. The “Men I Have 
Fished With’ was among the most popular series of 
papers ever presented to Forest AND STREAM readers.

The shop itself, the place of business of Uncle Lisha 
Peggs, bootmaker and repairer, was a sort of sportsman’s 
exchange, where, as one of the fraternity expressed it, 
the hunters_and fishermen of the widely scattered neigh- 
borhood used to nteet of evenings and dull outdoor days, 
“to swap lies.”

Bears | Have Met - And Others. 
By Allen Kelly. Paper, 209 pages. Price, 60 cents. 
Mr. Kelly’s most excellent book of bear stories, though 
for a time forgotten, has recently come to have an ex- 
cellent vogue. This is not strange, since bear stories, 
snake stories, always appeal to men, women and 
like 
children, many of whom perhaps acquired their first 


interest in these animals by reading of the achievements 
of the bears which figured in Bible history. At all 
events, the stories in this volume are interesting, and 
are well worth the reading by any audience,

Notes. 
The Ladies’ Missionary Aid Society of the Methodist 
Church, served dinner and luncheon on the grounds. 
The spread was better than usually falls to the lot of 
shooters, and was much enjoyed. The regular menu 
was augmented by a barbecued shoat and co’n bread. 
R. H. Clark would have tried every gun on the 
grounds if there had been events enough. He tried an 
automatic, Greener cvlinder bore, and two Parkers 
Jas. H. McNeil, all_the way from Albany, Ga., was 
among the visitors. He was a little off, but had as 
much fun as any of them. His sister was also an inter- 
ested visitor and can beat some of the regulars scoring. 
Miles Taylor struck a good gait and had a look in for 
the average until the seventh event, when he got his 
shells mixed and hit the toboggan good and hard. 
What would a Virginia shoot be without Dr. Dennis 
and W. A. Hammond. They are old standbys and know 
everybody, and neither of them are politicians. 
Watch W. F. Hall. He is big and fat, and only nine- 
teen years old. He shoots like a veteran and wears a 
“smile that won’t come off,’

John Coleman loves to shoot and has many friends

man. 
All the boys missed Dick Snow from the firing line. 
Business kept him away. 
W. A. Hammond carried away the fine
