t Py REWARD FO BILLY LAIST IS IN SIGHT Senate Gets Bill Authorizing Administrative Board to Re- tire Him on Pension As a reward for his 32 consecutive years of service as custodian of the state capitol building, friends of William Laist have started-legisla- tive action to see that he is taken care of for the remainder of his life. A bill has been introduced by the senate state affairs committee that authorizes the state board of admin- istration to contract for Laist’s serv- ices for the remainder of his life, and to set a.time when he shall be retired on a pension. The bill follows recommendations made by the eighteenth legislative assembly four years ago. At that time a resolution was| adopted that the assembly extend its thanks and appreciation to Laist for | his then more than 28 years of serv- ice, 1 HM recommended “to the com- ing sessions of the legislative as-| sembly that when he shall have| served the state for 30 years, some provision be made to pension or otherwise permanently reward him to the end that at the termination of his employment he be dismissed by his master, the state, with admonition of, the Master of old: ‘Well done, thou good and faithful servant.’” Provides For Vacation The present bill provides that he ae also be given an annual vaca- ion. It states that Laist “has continued to serve the state with unswerving loyalty and has now served the state in all for a period of 32 years.’ It continues to the effect that he has “rendered the state many serv- ices outside the scope of his regu employment for which no compensa- tion has been given,” and concludes with the statement that “it is high- ly desirable that he be retained in wih present position as long as pos- sible.” Mrs. Hart Granted Divorce—Plans to Return to Pictures Reno, Neb., Feb, 12,—()—Divoreed from her famous husband, William S.

William Watt, Cass county, ob- jected on the ground that it estab- lishes another state bureau and J. H.

It was sent back to the senate by the state affairs | committee without recommendation. A house bill that provides for strict limitations in the manner of hunting game birds und animals was tempo arily defeated when it lacked one vote of having the constitutional major- ity of 25. Game Laws Too Strict The measure aroused the ire of Senator Ole Ettestad, McHenry coun- ty, who said that ne laws are be- coming as strict as prohibition laws. He said that he never heard of people hunting with cannons in pointing out that the measure would allow: no larger firearms than a 10-gauge shot- gun to be used in hunting. Senator J. E. Stevens, Ramsey county, said that he will move for reconsideration of the bill. Seventeen more bills were contrib- uted to the senate hopper as the deadline on introduction of bills was approaches The senate recessed until 1 o'clock Tuesday afternoon in honor of Lin- coln’s birthday’ leaving an additional hour in which’ new bills may be in- troduced before the constitutional time limit expires.
