The Woodsman'a routine leaves littie time for 'reading. Up aI 5:,30 a.m. To the prime- val forest by seven, and out goes tbe oil lamp at 9 p.m., atter a long day of keepiîng up1 rwith tbe guide and climbing1 aver windfalls. But it's a wonderfuî lite!

Il is Pi called "The Language of Field 1ý Sports", writien by C. E. Hare a and published in London six be years ago. Now, such a book G attracîs oniy the connaisseurs, tc the people wbo teel il is im-S portant ta know that a maie deer is called a fawn ia bis b( first ycar, a pricket in bis sec- ar ond, a sorel ia bis third, sore ai in bis fourtb, bare buck ia bis mr fiftb, buck in bis slxth, and in ta p 0Shle/f l Bevrl4ge> hm seventh year he la calied a getbuck. But I found the ook absorblng, and 1 amn ot a COnnoisseur. The author hu a g ood deai to Saabout the technique and equette of_ huntlng, which puts the fun in field sports, even though rnany of our nirn- rods do flot seemn to thljik so. About the language of deer huntng, Mr. Hare says that a' herd of deer, correctly, muz.t coiitaln at least 20, except in the case of the roe-deer which herds at a minimum of lix. The round roll nextto the head Ai a red or fallow deer is cailed the burr; the main horn is the beamn, the lowest antier the brow antier, and the bizantiers, the royal, and the surroyal top in their 'place. We generaliy say we "start" a deer, but the praper terrrA to describe heaci- ing a deer back ini its flighit is "blanche". Deer graze. it i.s xnoose that browse. A red deer stag ia in velvet while its new hornà are hardening. He [a in "ragsanmd tatters" after hte rubs his borns against trees and the skin hangs in strips. Rein- deer are the only female deer to have antlers. A stag, Rare tells us, gets ip like a cow-hind quarteri rirst. The liver, kidncys and entrails of the deer were once cailed "numbles" and later "humbles". Hence, the ter:n "humble-pie" Stanley Spicer bas written a book about another kind of sports. "Play by Play", pub- ished by Ryerson, is intended as a guide mn organization an-d supervision of group games, stunts and other physical edu- cation activities . iamn-ifot an athîcte, and the football dia- grams in the book rather f a- igue me, but I am grateful to Mr. Spicer for explaining for me that the present style of play came into being when a shoolboy at Rugby ia England picked Up the bail, originàlly )nly kicked, and ran with it iru igame in 1823. In Canada foot- :al was first organized at Mc- F111l University, and McGîll ook it down to the United ;tales in 1875., What the author says about iockey and basketbaii, tracic tnd field, badminton, borse- ioes, swimming, àtunts anid nany other sports is importanit B.T.S.
