more reservations for hunting

had for years.
Wild sections of Canada lying
practically in the back yard of

big game in addition to many
types of game birds and smaller

Gloria joined in her laughter. "I

Gloria shrugged her sboulders,

that parties were more of a novelty
to Primrose than to her, and made
up her mind to pretend to enjoy this
one, even if she were bored stiff
