Never will there be as good an opportunity as a blue-sky day in these first w edts of October. Leave the cement and macadam to seek peaceful winding country roads which lead leisurely, and*

The approadiing hunting sea­son brings to mind the fact th a t there is more small game in the Catskills than there was 200 years ago. This, despite the fact th a t thousands of men with guns roam the mountains for the sev­eral weeks of the hunting season each year. * ̂ *

Deer, rabbits, grouse, squirrels are numerous. They m ust be sm arter than the hunters or they would have been killed off many years ago. These creatures live w ith man. They like his saw­m ills w hidi bring bushes and his farm lands which give them ample food. Truckloads of game are killed each year in the Catskills, how -many tons I do not know. Nevertheless, game is on the in­crease.

yard for morning chores, he stops to smell the cool briskness of the new season. A climbing sun spreads meUow warm th. The countryside relaxes while a purple haze spreads a benediction over the land.

• * *Autumn is not soft, coy. I t

holds its pennants for all to see. When the maples, beeches, birches change from green to scarlet, gold, wine and maroon the sky be­comes a richer hue, woodland ponds grow deeper. Bluejays scream in defiance, remaining flocks of m igrators d rd e in the air.
