He has four dogs, two stock dogs from Arizona and two bird dogs, and loves to watch them work. His lifelong dream was to own his own home and property, and that is just where he does all of his hunting and fishing. He enjoys the outdoors a great deal, considering himself a naturalist. Mr. Hamby uses his spare time as an escape mechanism - to get away from it all. He agded, A person should enjoy what he does, and o. 6. Taking what you give them and they don't argue back is what Elementary principal Tom Netherton enjoys about cattle farming during his spare time. Mr. Netherton averages about two hours a day caring for and feeding approximately 85 head of Angus cattle at his Maysville home. He considers it a relief to come home from a busy day and tend to his farm. When commenting on farming, he offers this advice: Don't let it become a burden. Just enjoy it to the best of your ability. Whether their spare time is part of a living or just for relaxation, they all seem to enjoy their spare time a great deal.

by Brent Gill Farming. . . Hunting. . . Gardening. . . What do they have in common? These are just a few of the activities enjoyed by Jay Public School adminis- trators in their spare time. 1. When Warren Shackelford, high school prin- cipal, is not behind his desk working, he enjoys hunting coyotes, red fox, and wolves in his spare time. He owns eight registered Walker fox hounds he uses for his runs. Mt. Hermon and Pawnee, Oklahoma are two of many places where he hunts. He also attends county hunts in the spring and fall at the Chamber- land School House in Colcord. In Their Spare Time Mr. Shackelford commented, The best time to fox hunt is when the evening is cool, dewey, and not windy. Happy hunting, Mr. Shackelford! 2. After a day as assistant principal, Garry Brewster unwinds at home by tending his twenty head of cattle and a few hogs. Mr. Brewster has been livestock farming for nine years. He farms as a hobby and no income is involved. Very little time is spent on his farm during the school year, just general chores during the week and on weekends. Owning your own land and being able to grow your own feed, Mr. Brewster feels, are the keys to success in livestock farming. i l 3. Hard work and devotion, is what Superin- tendent C. Fi. Thornton puts into his two acre lawn during his spare time. He manages to work on his lawn at least one hour a day aside from his busy schedule. In addition, he keeps up the United Methodist Church lawn also. Cedar, pecan, and sycamore are just three of thirty-seven varieties of trees he has planted on his lawn. Masonry skills he acquired at the Afton Vo-Tech last spring have helped him in the construction of his flower beds and bar-b-que pit. After his retire- ment, he plans to use his newly acquired skill to build a cabin on his lake property. 4. Disliking hunting when he was growing up, Roy Drake, assistant superintendent, bought a coon dog from his father-in-law, and completely changed his mind about hunting. Mr. Drake enjoys sportsmanship coon hunting with his blue tick and plott hounds in the Delaware county area. He has been coon hunting for 13 years and enjoys the outdoors very much. Mr. Drake adds, No hunting night is the same. Everytime I go hunting, it's a different experience and that is what makes it interesting and worth- while.
