far more enjoyable Wouldbe bow hunters In the coming fall season for deer hunting in Ontario will have to hurry and gel the proper deer licence and bow hunting lag to which Is attached a form that must be filled out mailed to the Ministry of Nalurtl Resources Wildlife Branch Queen s Park Toronto This form must be received in Toronto not later than July Mail service being what It is one would be wise at this late dale to deliver this form personally This early application is for the right to take an antlmesa deer and does not stop one from enjoying the fall hunt providing you will be

success They landed 16 Speckled Trout some in the wo pound class It was a great and unforgettable trip for this trio Root for the Marauders
