FVEItY year In the United States
.P wheh-the hunting season rolls
. n round, more than 7,000,000 healthy
bnys and robust men take teethe
neld, cun in hand. Reports of hunt-
ing accidents begin drifting is to
ihe newspapers. Some come back '
biinded by a careless load of shot
from-a fiend's gun. Others come
hack wifh hands and arms and legs
biown off. Some never get back
alive. '
The pttyof the whole bloody
buibiness ta that there was almost
never a hunting accident yet that
wasn't caused by somebody’s need-
less, fooltsh earelessness The only
plausibte excuse for the accident
might be where a hunter faints in
the field and falls on ths muzzle of
his gun. All other accidents are in-
excusable.
So tr as I can remember, I have
never yet met a really good shot
who iva careless with his gun.
loaded or unloaded. Every good
shot knows that once or twice dur-
ing his life his gun may go of .an-
expectedls,He‘s always ready’for
it when it happens. His Accidental- —
ly let-off load plows harmlessly into
the ground, or up Into the air, -
where it can hurt no one.
Merely from the practical etesd-
point, it is smart to be careful with
your gun. You will be invited on
enjoyable and successfJ hunting
’ parties much more often, where the
careless man with a gun never gets
a second invitation. Careless gun
handling is simply bad shooting
manners. You make everybody
near you nervous rand uneasy. You
get yourself disliked. Real sports-
nen have nothing but anger and
cotempt for you. Be careful and
gentlemanly la.your gun handling
and you will have much more pleas*
ure hunting, have more good friends
—and, important point,’Yon may
live longer.
Never keep a shotgun loaded
about the house. Never leave shells

- into the gun. Never point an "emp-
ty" gun at anstningsordonot wish

When loading yr gun is the
field, never slip the shells in until
you have looked through the barrel
to see that there is not a bit of
denning rag or other obstruction.
Obstruction in the barrel will burst
