Thought this was kind of cool. "A thinking man is never lost for long" :)

Excerpt from the article: "A gun may help as a signal, seldom for game."

That was written in 1946. I envy the freedom of previous generations of Americans. In 1946 you could build a house without having to spend thousands of dollars to have some dumb ass barrier fence erected around the construction site, you could start a business without having to walk through a gauntlet of bureaucratic despots, and if you were a law abiding citizen, you could carry a pistol with you in the woods for your protection. Fire a pistol off in the woods in NJ today to signal for help, and you'll be signaling law enforcement to send you to jail for a mandatory minimum of five years for carrying a handgun without a carry permit.
