F. DOTY & SON year or so ago, Stan Wagn and Frank Scarrow of Delhi hi ed a group of real conser ation: ists to help them on their, recla- mation project at "Deerlick." The boys got permission to settle a colony of beavers on their land and apparently the animals have taken hold with a vengeance. Not content with using the man-made improvements in the area, the peavers have moved upstream and started a project of their own. Maybe they want to show up the human conseryation at tempts, wonderful though they are in the district Apparently some property owners there abouts are wondering what to_do for it seems the beavers didn't wait for permission before getting under way! You know, there are a great many sPortsmen's clubs around Ontario, all dedicated to protect and preserve our game, But when you drive around a bit, you're constantly amazed at the number of likely places which have no such organization . . . Some of the best hunting and fishing areas have no groups interested i their perpetuation . . . And you can bet that the future of game in these areas is indeed limited. We can't understand the apathy of sportsmen in these places. It's mostly true, we suppose, that they realize the situation but they're waiting for someone else to start a crusade. This happens too' often. Experience in the past usually shows that by that time the resources are mostly gone. Now this represents a chal- lenge and an opportunity to every sportsman who loves the out- doors. After all, if we don't look after our own areas, we can't ex- pect anyone else to. We've said this often before, but it won't hurt repeating--this winter, get your friends together and think about beginning a sportsmeh's group. It will pay off, fellows-- believe us! Can't quite remember where we heard this one--it was a while back--but fit struck us as a splen- did idea at the time. Seems they are going to start a training pro- gram for guides at the ranger school in Dorset. The more we think about it the better we like E! it! You know, the lads who do the guiding can also do a whale of a job of selling visitors. And it's the kind of selling that will pay div- idends over the years . . . Get the guides teaching conservation and you've got something! Because then your sportsmen gets his les- son from a man whose living de- pends on it, from a man whose wooderaft and experience he res- pects. This is a great idea. Hope it catches on elsewhere.

What's the answers We take all the goldeye we cay get. We bring salmon from boty coasts. We take smoked fish fro abroad and yet with fresh picker and lake trout at our back doors, we let it be shipped away ang rarely take advantage of it.

Journeying to Simcoe on Friday, Bud Corbett's kids came from behind to claim a 64 win over that centre's classy "B' squad. Port Credit and Cooks ville members of the club set the pace, with Ralph Simmons and Don Courtney netting two mark ers each and Mucker Milne not ching a singleton!
