After such a great
summer it is indeed
unfortunate that the cold
reality of winter is so
close at hand. Along with

One of the most en-
joyable of these is
curling. Curling offers
fun and good exercise.
The Vanastra Curling
Club is looking forward to
another successful
curling season. The club
is happy to announce that
a Wintario grant for over
$4,900 has been received

volunteer labour and the
perseverance of past
president John

will help pay for the new
equipment purchased
last sason.
New members are
needed to make the club a
success and we hope to
see many new faces this
season. If you would like
to give curling a try just
call the membership
chairman, Alec Toivn-

Past members will be
contacted in the next few
weeks.
Our executive mem-
bers . have been busy
washing walls and get-
ting the machinery ready
for the installation of the
The which should take

By Steve Cooke
Every year when the opening of duck season
rolls around, I see a lot of stupid things occurring
that I find harder and harder to believe.
Skybusting is something thathappens
regularly, and is not only stupid and wasteful,.
but is also discourteous to other, hunters. I hear
lots of people talk about 70 And 80 yard shots
when I know they're only 36 or 40 yards. Even if a
person owns a gun that can deliver killing pat-
terns at 60 yards, the lead required on a flying
duck at that range is a mathematical problem
that even experts would shy away from.
As a general rule, this thin patterns and low
velocities at long range only result in wounded-
ducks. Skybusting also spoils good accurate
shooting for the .responsible, knowledgeable
gunner. I learned a long time ago that when you
can see a duck's eye, it is within shooting range.
Another thing that amazes me is that people
set out in bright red coats and hunter orange
caps and actually expect ducks to come close
enough to shoot them. This type of clothing is fine
and practical for qther types of hunting, but
birds have color perception, and it's hard enough
to hide from ducks as it is. Green is an okay color
for early in the season, but if you're planning on
only one coat for all your hunting, a light brown
is probably your best bet. Above all, break up
your body outline by hunkering down in some
willows or cattails.
Common courtesy is another aspect of duck
hunting that too many people disregard. If there
is already a party of hunters in a swamp or
pothole, don't go busting in and plunk down in the
middle of their set up. I remember one time I had
some'decoys set in a beaver pond when two other
hunters wandered in. One look at my layout, and
they decided that this must be a good place tq
hunt. The older hunter had enough sense to squat
down in some brush while the other proceeded to
stretch out in the grass, yellow .cap and all, not
five feet from my decoys. After about two hours,
they decided there wasn't any action there after
all and packed up and left. My companion and I
continued to hunt there the rest of the day and
both of us limited out well before sunset.
I would just as soon keep the bulk of the people
ignorant about proper duck hunting as it would
probably provide more shooting for me. I am,
however, sickened by the appalling rate of lost
and wounded ducks by "sometime, hunters", and
only hope that this article will do something
towards reducing that aspect. For the con-
scientious hunters, this is nothing new; so good
luck and good shooting.

It's Not Easy to Rao Children Today
There are a lot of pressures on parants right now that
make it very difficult to do the lob they'd like to do In,
providing for their children, It's never been easy to do
it well and probably never will be, but it 1s possible, b§
spending a little time. to help children lead a better
life and to increase your own satisfaction as a parent.
The normal stresses and problems of growing up can
become extremely upsetting problems for the whole
family when the relationships of family members to
each other are not satisfying.
When children become upset and disturbing, or aren't
getting along as well as parents want them to, and
they have already done the things that worked well
enough with other children, It's hard to know what to
do next.
That's the time to meet a trained and experienced
counsellor who can share with you a wider experience
than any family would get in a lifetime.
The Huron Centre for Children and Youth has provided
this service for hundreds of families from all walks of
life and all over Huron County and beyond. since Its In-
corporation as a Children's Mental Health Centre In
1977. The Centre Is governed by an Independent Board
of Directors elected by the citizens of Huron County at
a public meeting held each year.
