DEER SHOOTING NOT SO GOOD This week there are a lot of hunters trying their luck in Bruce County. Re- ports of some sections, the upper parts, are that the hunters are quite successful, many getting their quota the first day. • In the section north of here this does not seem to 'be the case. Some parties have had some luck but not to be compared with the reports from further north. Thee was one group from town that knocked off one deer in the Greenock area Tuesday and another lot from Guelph that make their headquarters at Frank McCormick's got one on Monday. Harvey and Ab. Cook, Jim McConnell and George Hurley bagged one on Monday and repeated on Tues- day. They also shot a couple of coons. Reports from the Alps section is that a few outsiders have had fair luck in that area as have some of the farm- ers in that section, However, so far the success of the hunters is not to be compared as yet with last year but there is still the greater part of the week to go.

We read of Enoch that he walked with God, and so did guileless William Lowrie and will with all who live the Godly life receive the reward of right- eousness.
