RABBIT DRIVE 'The weekly jack rabbit drive was ................----------------about fifty persons taking part. If the number of jack -rabbits that have been taken in the drives this winter could be tabulated we think we are safe in saying the number would total over 1500. Imagine the amount of des­ truction these animals would do to the wheat fields and young trees. The Saturday drive was participated in by several citizens1 from Detroit. As the weather was mild the small creeks were running well with water and the sportsmen found it difficult at times in crossing the creeks with­ out getting wet. An -amusing inci­ dent occurred when one of the men stooped in the middle of a stream while others leap-l'rcgged over him in safety to the opposite bank. At another stream one of the men with high bocts- carried others across on his back. The men had a lot of fun and succeeded in bagging about 7<> jacks. They covered three and three quarter miles from the Middlesex boundary to Clandeboye.
