CONTROVERSY ABOUT
BIG GAME
Delegate Sulzer has introduc
ed a Bill before Congress prov
iding for the killing and cold
storage of big game in Aiaska,
One Dr Hornaday, trustee of
the American Wild Life Protect
ive Fund,protests: characteris
ing such killing as wanton waste.
Former President Roosevelt
becomes excited over the ques
tion and orders the Bill to be
squelched.
This subject is one of vital
{interest to us in this section and
| wo have long hoped that some
tiling might be done toward the
| wise use of such meat as seemed
j necessary to be slaughtered, in
I order that tourist hunters may
I secure the trophies they desire,
j and it appears to us that. Delegate
j Sulzer’s Bill would be desirable
j from this point of view.
As for Mr.Roosevelt’s attitude
over the Bill —- he has evidently
changed his views since his hunt
ing ti ip to British East Africa,
at that time tl e white population
of Nairobi regarded1 him very
much as some people here regard
head hunters.

The way to get at the merits
of a case is not to listen to the
fool who imagines himself im
partial,but to get it argued with
reckless bias for and against.
To understand a saint, you
must hear the devil’s advocate.
Go back to the simple life,
be contented with simple food,
simple pleasures, simple clothbs
Work hard, pray hard, play
hard. Work, eat, recreate and
sleep. Do it all courageously.
We have a victory to win.

Help our government to

already produced.
Give your bnilding the*’once
