MYRTLE VINTON, S°SLSVSISSSS ‘than yourself Thay whetr= Seturday, May 9th, The Game Code. 4 Adequate protection for the gal fish, birds and animaly of the state is. very near assted in the passage of | the Morgan bill, which was tnely disposed of. ‘The old game laws were in bad shape. Some have been prov- ed defective and others unconstifu- tional by the courts, and most were very difficult to understand. The new code, the original draft of which is the result of a year’s work by C. F.. Hale, attorney for the commission, is couched in simple language and every precaution is taken to make it valid in every particular. : An important change is the one which applies all the money received trom licenses to sustain the work of the departmene. This will add $12,- 000 or $15,000 a year to the amount available. As the standing appropri-+ ation is continued at $40,000 a year, they can employ more salaried wardens. > ‘The gun license feature of the bill was cut vut, but the coupon system of licenses was retained. The big game license for residents of the state was raised to $1. With it gues five coupons, three for deer, one for moose and one for caribou. The holder of the liceuse can ship the animals with coupons attached to his own county, but no where else. Non residents still pay $25 for big game license, which entitles them to ship two deer, twenty-five birds and fifty pounds of fish out of the state. They can geta small game license for $10 which will entitle the holder to ship the birds and the fish. Another importrnt change limits the number of birds a hunter may have in his poSsession at one time. He is limited to,100 ducks and 50 birds of other kinds, The open season for quail is made fifteen days later, running from Oe tober 15th to December 15th. The open season for bass hegins May 29, to permit fishing on May 30. Spear- ing of picke-el, suckers, red horse and bullheads for family use and without lights, is permitted from March 15th to April 15th.—Brainerd Dispatch. | Bob Burdette to Young Men, Remember, son that the world is older than you by several years; that for thousands of years it has been so full of better and smarter young amen | out of the dormer windows; that when they died the old globe went whirling on, and not one man in ten millions went to the funeral. Don’t be too sorry for your father because he knuws so much less than you do. Ktemempber the reply of Dr. Wayland to the students of Brown university, who said it was an easy thingto make proverbs such as Solomon wrote. “Make a few,” tersely replied the old man. The world bas great need of young men, but no greater need than the young man has for it. Your clothes fit you better than your father’s fit him: they cost more money, and they are more stylish; your moustache is neater: the cut of your hair is better. But, young man, the old gentieman gets the biggest salary, and his homely scrambling sig- nature on the business end of a check will drain more money outof the bank in five minutes than you could get out with a ream of paper and a copper plated signature in six months. Ono Hundred and Fifty $1 Bills. Lang & Carter ran up against the real thing the other day in the line of woman’s economy, The scarcety of $1 bills has been quite noticeable in Bemidji for some time and the bankers have been louking around for a new kind of slot machine to account for their disappearance. Long & Car- ter found the source of the trouble this week in closing a deal witha Bemidji lady for some lots in the Townsite company’s Third addition, when their purchaser paid them $150 in one dollar bills. The ‘‘wad” was so big that the senior member of the firm felt like a Vanderbilt until he had stuffed it into the vault of the Lumberman’s bank. Thatshows how tauch superior a good wife may be to any slot. machine.—Bemidji Pioneer. Somewhat Fishy. The Wichita string fiend tells the following story about a man who was caught-in a cave-in while reparing a pump. ‘The dirt had buried him to his shoulders when a quick witted fellow workman grabbed a garden hose nearby and stuck it into his mouth. Then twelve feet of loose earth earth piled upon the unfortu- nate chap but he was able to breath through the hose as well as to direct the rescuing party what to do to get him out. It took four hours to re- lease him, he came out with a broad grin on his face—which was to have been expected with his jaws pried apart by a two inch hose all the time. + The Devil Remarks. After 27 vears experience in the newspaper business, we last. week en- joyed the great pleasure (which will no doubt cause envy to rankle in the breast of our uewspaper brethern) of making “pi” of two 6-column forms containing advertisements and read- ing matter. The cause leading up to the event was tersely put by the office devil. On one of the pages we had run a cut of a ehurch and its pastor, together with appropriate reading matter. When the forms dropped the devil remarked: ‘‘Well no won- der, when you get to running such stuff in the paper.’ But then the devil was always~ opposed to the church and its teachings so we were pot surprised at his remarks.—Clo- quet Independent.
