PAGE TWO Bin, Gur Week Dedicated To Hunter Safety This is Hunt Safely Week. The purpose of this special designation, is to draw attention to the need for hunting preparations in advaice of season, for firearms training and precautions to be observed in the field with guns. These are of great value in reducing and keeping hun- | ter casualties at the lowest possible figure, Guns should be cleaned ' and checked for needed repairs, instruction and range practice’ for those new to hunting, so that safety: habits acquired calmly ‘at practice wil] be rule under the excitement of hunting thrills, f Hunt Safely Week hi rine -repetitions of cautions which, -al- |: watys practiced, would prevent many an injury or death attributable only to stupid, careless trigger happiness. If there are any two admonitions that point the way to gun “accident” prevention they are: Treat. every gun as if it were’ loaded—and— always keep your gun pointed away |: from yourself and others, never to- ward anything you do; nat “intend to kill, v Bow And Arrow Hunters Soon after the Pennsylvania arch. ery season for antlered deér ‘opened, October 13, about, 8,000 licenses had ‘been issued to bow ‘hunters. In 1951, the first year that Qualer | State bie hunters enjoyed a sep- arate “buck” deer .season, about 5,400 persons “bought archery lic- enses. In that two-week season 33 legal bucks were sl ain by ibroadhead shafts. This iS the second, and, last,’ week of the 1952" ‘anchérs’ sea : bucks, and reports’ of’ Kills are trickling in ‘slowly. “Though “the “driving” method is sometimes used, bow hunters usually eniploy one’ of two other hunting systenis. They either stalk their ‘quarry or lie in wait for it at a’ deer’ sing. In these cases their method is ‘quiet and they remain hiddén from’ view, and when they loose a shaft ‘there is no accompanying’ blast, as’ with gun fining. Mherefore, it is. ‘much more difficult ho locate boty | ‘and’ arrow ' hunters’ "to, learn’ ‘of their success on the spot. : While anchers will bag few. deer in, ‘comparison ‘to’ gun hunters,’ ‘thou- sands of ‘them will" enjoy’ many pleasurable hors afield,” benefiting from the good things that come ‘of being outdobrs in’ "Pentisylvinia’ ‘in autumn, ! “Wood Toiieks: , Competent , waterfowl , observers’ are again becoming concerned about. the wood. dudk, .

So here's how: Take a large piece of absorbent ‘cloth. An old shirt won't do, so 1idon’t waste your time. But an old knit undershirt with armholes and meckline torn off to conceal the ori- gin, and the tube slit up one side to make it lie flat, is just the ticket. ! Lay the cloth on a. newspaper, sprinkle it with furniture polish, and roll. it up tight. What's the news- paper for? To keep the oil from 1getting on the floor prematurely, and to hold the oiled cloth while the oil is spreading to its every . Now you're ready to operate. i Spread the cloth on the floor, plant the oil mop firmly in the middle of it, and use the whole business as a unit. Three or four smipes with that enlarged duster will clean up the area under the | bed, Four or five more will take up all the dust in the middle of the floor. It’s three times as fast as ; nibbling at the same area with a small mop. : When the cloth is full of dust on one side, turn it over. Most of the dust will beat right out when you shake it in the wind, Dunk it in a strong detergent, rinse it well, and dry it, all ready for another oil bath, Your oil mop will last twice as long, and your results will be superior.
