Each store I went into seemed more crowded than the one before. Just hundreds of grownups and the children as well were eager- ly intent upon seeking out the choicest gifts while thg Christmas stocks are still com- plete. And then the many who are really thoughtful are planning to mail the par- cels that go to distant states right away, so there will not be that last minute rush that causes such a hectic time for all concerned. Uncle Sam always warns us to “Shop Early,” but these are such busy times that every hour of the day is crowded full and sometimes really important things are left undone. It would be too bad to have your faraway friends disappointed on Christmas morning and their parcels come straggling } And what a comfortable feeling it is to know that these! along three or four days late matters are all attended to_ If at all possible it is well to give a few of the morning} hours to shopping, for the stores are not so crowded and the service much better.

Dec. 10.— United Press),—Zar.e Grey, writer 07 western stories, demands that the Public take cognizance of the exter- mination of wild game and fish in the west. The noted writer has just returned here from an extended trip into the wilad country of southern Utah, where many scenes for the screen production of “Vanishing Men,” were taken. Grey is one of the founders of the Izaak Walton league, an organiza- tion whose purpose is to conserve and protect the wild game and fish from extermination. Grey declared after his trip that unless drastic steps are taken by every state in the country the time is not far dis- tant when the wild game of the for- est will be but a memory. “The Izaak Walton League fs the last hope of those who wish to save outdoor America from complete com- mercialization,” said Grev. Its pur- pose ts to create pub'ic sentinient and make it so powerful that through {t we can place upon our statute books even better laws for the protection of wild animals and fish than we have at present.” Among the authors who are work- ing with Grey in his nature protec- tion work are Dr. Henry Van Dyke. Robert W. Chambers, Irvin S. Cobb, James Oliver Curwood, Robert H. Davis, Albert Bigelow Paine, Gene Stratton-Porter, Mary Roberts Rine- hart and Clara Louise Burnham. “Only the people themselves can save the great outdoors from utter destruction,” Grey declared. “They can do it through the ballot and by moulding public opinion. Another ten or fifteen years will see the end of outdoor America, such as we have known !t.” ae 17 BELOW IN WESTERN PART OF STATE SUNDAY LARAMIB, Wyo., Dec. 10.—Train number 22 on the Union Pacific from Green River to Denver was more than two hours late this morn- ing, due to freezing of the water in nes from the tender to the boiler, and probable losing time since leav- ing Green River.
