As the weather has not been very
favorable for saving pork for the last
few weeks, very few of us have kill

possum hunting to get some meat
for Christmas. So far we have been
successful. Two young men of our
community were out on a pleasure
trip Sunday p. m. and succeeded in
capturing one. It was not an ap
propriate day for an o’possum hunt,
but we have heard it said “the bet
ter the day the better the deed,”
and we hope the ’possum will bo
good also.
