The term “nester,” for a range
settler, originated when the home-
steader cleared a patch of brush
and stacked it in a circular form
to protect his feed patch from
range cattle. It looked like a giant
bird’s nest.

Mail Early—Save
That 'Last-Minute'
Pile Up And Delay
“The time has passed to talk
about ‘Mailing Early for Christ-
mas’,” Postmaster Tom E. Friery
said this week, "but our patrons
can still help the Postal Service
avoid a tremendous last-minute
pile-up of Christmas mail by send-
ing all packages and cards right
now!”
To the inevitable last-minute
mailers he suggests that Air Mail
postage be used on all gifts and
cards going to distant cities.
The Postmaster said that Re-
gional Postal officials were ex-
pecting the Christmas mail volume
this year to break all previous
records And this mail load is ex-
pected to hit its peak next week.
He cautioned local post office pa-
trons to make sure that all pack-
ages are addressed carefully and
that zone numbers are included on
mail going to large cities with
zoned delivery.
“There is still time to mail cards
for local delivery,” Mr. Friery said,
“but they should all be in the mail
by the end of next week.”
He recommended that cards go-
ing out of town be sent by first
class mail (4c postage) in order
that they may be returned or for-
warded in case the addressee has
moved. And he pointed out that it
is quite proper to affix your re-
turn address on Christmas cards.
The Palacios Post Office offers
window service from 8:30 a.m. un-
til 5 p.m. from Monday through
Friday and from 8 a.m. to 12 noon
on Saturday.

drum, there were several big ones
ten to fifteen pounds caught. Big
drum are not as active, nor do they
put up a fight like most game fish
or smaller size, but it is a thrill to
land a big fish of any kind.
The Shell Pile, Turn Basin, and
Baptist Grounds continued to pay
off with nice sized specks. Floun-
dering was good along Grassy Point
and at Shell Beach, when the wind
laid. Many one to three pound
flounder were gigged, a few went
to four and five pounds.

John Ficlden, better known as
‘Peg Leg’ to all who fished at the
Tres-Palacios river, and during the
many years he operated a bait
camp on the river, purchased bait
from him, was found dead in his
houseboat on Dec. 2. He had been
dead since Nov. 30. He was 65.
At the inquest, Judge Paul Geissler
gave the verdict as due to natural
causes. Funeral services were
December 3 from the Palacios Fu-
neral Home with burial in the Pa-
lacios Cemetery.

Hunters favor deer and quail
to preserve ducks: Texas hunters
have definitely eased the gun pres-
sure but the incomplete winter duck
census does not yet indicate a
drastic slump in the duck popula-
tion in this area, according to a
survey by Sportsmen’s Clubs of
Texas,
One thing seems to be clear,
said Cecil Reid, Scot’s Exec. secy,
many of the states’ 150,000 duck
stamp buyers last year believed
the advance pessimistic reports
about duck numbers and are de-
voting their wildlife harvest time
to the bumper big game and quail
crops.
A spot cheok of post offices indi-
cates that duck stamp sales are
off. That was described by Reid
as a ‘definite barometer of the
trend.’ Texas was third in the na-
tion last year in duck stamp sales.
“Many duck hunters simply de-
cided to give the birds a break,”
said Reid. They were influenced
by reported low duck numbers, the
curtailed season, shorter shooting
hours and reduced bag limits. Also
the federal duck stamp was raised
from $2 to $3. Of course, many
true conservationists bought their
stamps anyway since the funds are
now all earmarked for waterfowl
restoration projects.
Bob Singleton, director of water-
fowl research for Texas Game and
Fish Commission, said studies now
being concentrated in the coastal
waterfowl wintering areas do not
conclusively show that the popula-
tion is down in this area.
“In fact,” Singleton said, “the
October population in the upper
Texas coast was triple that of last
year. It has not been determined
whether the unseasonal increase
was caused by an early winter in
the principle nesting areas in the
Canadian provinces.
Singleton said that the Novem-
ber count to be announced shortly
may be more conclusive. He said
the lukewarm interest in the duck
harvest was reflected by the fact
that the state owned Big Hill
Bayou wildlife management area
near Port Arthur where hunting is
free, has been patronized very
lightly.

Dr. and Mrs. Kilgore of Hous-
ton, Mr. and Mrs. Glenn of San
Antonio, were guests of the Clar-
ence Cox family last week end.
They enjoyed themselves so much,
fishing from the City Pier, with
such good results they came back
again this week end. One nice
thing about local pier fishing is
that it pays off with a variety of
fish that run from one to three
pounds—rat reds go about a pound
each, trout, one to two and a half
pounds, sheepshead, often go to
two pounds, and drum one to three
pounds.

Mrs. Gaber says: A writer re-
