DADDY'S GONE
A-HUNTING
To go! • floocy. whit* goal
■kin.
To wrap tha baby bunting in.
By* low baby bunting, byo.
H. J. Hodgson, Experiment Sta
tion agronomist, has been in Al
aska for three and a half years
now and he kkes it. He knew
he’d like it when he came because
he loved to hunt. For the past
three seasons he’s gone hunting
for big game, concrete proof of
his hunting skill. Yet three sea
sons passed—one, two, three—
and never a bear nor a moose nor
a caribou could he claim.
It was frustrating because he
knew he was good. Man and boy,
he'd shot waterfowl in flight and
in the brush—in season, of course.
But for biff game, he couldn’t
seem to find his mark.
Two weeks ago “Hod” and
Ruth Hodgson had a bouncing
baby boy. Quite by coincidence
they named him Mark.
Last week-end, with the snow
deep and white on the mountain
sides, just a bare ten days before
the end of the season, "Hod” de
cided to try his luck at goat hunt
ing with Jim Hurley. Quite by
coincidence, he found his mark.
Now the Hodgsons have a fleecy,
white goat skin to wrap their
baby bunting in.
