The truth iS of • course, that it

hunting • • as . a sport is highly'
• 'over -rated. It is much iik sol-

monotony and intense discomfort,.
interspersed by . explosions .of 'Viol-
enee and utter' confittion.
•'. There are reasons why, all those
flabbyinuscled, -short-
winded . eharaeters Undergo the
dreariness and the exhaustion of
the hunt. Seldom among them are
the yearning for a- venison roast,
nor yet the deep detire to indulge
in' the thrills of the. chase, •
•• • *.
Some of, them go because they
face the truth, „They know that
they can't spend one 'mord day
with their wives without,' taking
an axe to....them:. 8rpug in. the,
knowledge •that it is the one holt.'

AnOther segnient is also nearing
the breaking 'point, Itlis Made up
Of the rrien-who are Tanning away
from The job or The Business,
Nearly berserk from the attentions
of boss or 'customers, 'they'll Ad-
mit quite frankly, the cowards,
• that the Y don't give a -diddle about

Then there are the boys Who
want to play at being men. These
are the—types with white:cellar
jobs, :good' incomes, and .iron -will-
ed '1,vive,s. For 51 weeks of the
year, these birds are well dressed,
well mannered and well'managed
So they 'go deer:hunting, ,and for
one glorious week they stomp.

Still, another regiment of 'hunt-
ers is made up. of mento whom
deer 'hunting has a snta appeal.
They are like, the people whodon't'
know a football from a footbatli,

of ordinary, hardy_peremOt:clets,
who go 'cl-g.er—tiiiiting just' Air the
hell of iC They pile in a car and
head north, hitting .the . stuff all
the 'way. When they get to deer
Qountry; they pile out. and, wander
Iiiiiressely and eluelessly, shooting
at horses,: cattle arid each other,
and getting lost. The second. day

the nearest ,pub. The third ,day;
they don't even get up till 'noon,
• manage to 'get. in rare shape 'by
dark, and shine well at the hunt-

- Perhaps five per cent of all those
who go deer hunting. are real hnnt-
ers.,..They loOk forward to the
hunt with 'keenest anticipation.
They love the bush and the eold
and the battle of wits. They work
.hard at it. They, conie home with

the "Spirit of .Confeoleration" ison
