SEPTEMBER FIRST TODAY |
♦♦PTARMIGAN DAY"
Today being September firs', the
opening of the ptarmigan season
In this section of Alaska, drew
many of the residents of Nome
out of bed at an early hour, all
bound on a quest for ptarmigan.
Many cars loaded with hunters
took to the roads during. all
hours of the night and morning.
Some of the later ones arriv
ed out in the hills to find tbit
dozens of hunters had already
been there and were even then
taking their alloted toll of the
faimous little bird of Alaska.
You might just as well have
stayed home as think of going out
hunting with any prospects of be
ing able to piok up any on the
roads, later than 6 a.m. today.
Why, they even started shooting
when daylight was still an hour
away. "«
But all joking aside; there are>
plenty of birds to be ha<i by all
who want to go hunting. The!
limit according to the law is tw
enty-five, and according to the re
ports, game commission authorities
are ready to prosecute anyone ex
ceeding the limit. It is not nec
essary to annihilate an entire
country-side full of birds. It
some precautions are taken the
birds will continue to live in and
around Nome and there will bo
plenty for everyone.

worth mentioning as there are al
ways 'boss who believe they will
never have another such chance
of slaughtering to their All. But
to those who have the game in
terests. at heart, it Is a timely
suggestion.
One other thing which should
reteivc first consideration by h.ut
eis is the necessity of "Sa'ety
First.” With a great many hunt
ers in the field It behooves every
one to be very careful where
they point and shoot their guns.
Guns of all types are dangerous
and carry a potential threat at
ail times. But the most danger
ous weapon of all is the gun whlci
is “not loaded.”
