Vr. 2 T ffor/ioid&Y By JOHN DICKINSON SHERMAN VERY full with the arrival of Jack Frost America's pi me problem pushes to the fore. It used to he a spring problem, too. Hut spring shooting bus been practically pushed off (lie -map by national legis lation. America's game problem is merely a specific, up-tp date presentation of George Herbert's old question. "Wouldst thou botli eat thy cake and have it?" How can we both shoot game and not ex- | ter/inate It is the problem. There Is a like problem as to game fish, as to the forests, as to scenery, as to soli. The occasion of this article Is an article in Nature Magazine, Washing ton, by Dr. William T. Uornaday. di rector of the New York Zoological garden, denouncing the hunter's use of the automobile. And Dr. llornaday's text Is this: ?The automobile Is great for the killers, but It Is h? 1 for the game. The motor car sounds the death knell for American game, unless prompt ac tion is taken." Of this phase of the problem more later. For like all big problems this American game problem has many phases which must be considered to get a comprehensive view of the situa tion. , The general proposition is that I civilization and wild animal life can not exist together. Kven If adequate game laws are adequately enforced, settlement of a region Inevitably brings about llight or extinction pf nil wild animal life, except migratory birds. A century hence tlte only place where an American can see American big game In Its natural habitat will be the national parks and similar nation al reservations where nature Is pre served In Its original wlldness and absolute sanctuary for wild life ob tains. For the Immediate present and the near future there are many encour agements for the sportsman? the man who loves hunting for the sport's sake, hates a game-hog and abhors commercial slaughter. Through laws, education, sportsmanship and organi zation the destructive Ideas of taking without returning, of destroying with out restoring, of using up In the pres ent without providing for the future are being replaced by saner views among the 6,000,000 or more hunters of the country. * The sportsman is the gentleman of the outdoors. It Is difficult to define the gentleman and therefore the sportsman. There are.^however, cer tain things that the sportsman ha bitually does. And one of these things Is that he obeys the game laws. An other Is that he never kills more game# than he can use. A third is that lie always gives the game a fair chance ? he does not shoot birds unless fly ing; he uses light tackle in angling; he stalks the deer. In, sharp contrast is the story told by the photographs reproduced herewith. Whereabouts of the Dove i The preacher was an earnest man, and believed In advertising. Thus It happened that at a revival meet ing for "colored gentlemen" It was agreed that when the preacher thought the excitement was at Its highest he should give a signal to the sexton to throw down a white dove through a hole which had been specially ckt In the roof tbove the pulpit for that purpose. One tells how two men have used" a motorcycle and sidecar to chase down a deer and get witldn rifle shot. 1 Another, sent to Dr. Mornaday, tells how several shooters have used an automobile to pursue quail, marking t lie lli^ht of the coveys and following relentlessly, matching the speed of | machinery against that of wings and : covering as much country in hours as a man on foot would cover in days. A third tells a remarkable story, ' quite up to date. It , shows a lake | i where, the fish lie off from shore and ; light shy of a boat. Two men cvme to the lake a^iued tor slaughter. They , till three small balloons from a hydro gen gas tAnk, attach them to a line baited with a live held mouse and float the apparatus off on the wind. A fish is hooked. Thereupon one of the men collapses the balloon with a gun and the other pulls in the flsh. Why not use dynamite or drain the lake! Either would be as sportsman like. The picture of the girl is used simply to show ttttot everybody Is do ing It ? even the girls are shooting nowadays. One cause for encouragement is that migratory waterfowl and Insec tivorous birds, under present 'aws, have a chance to hold their own and to Increase. As a matter of admitted fact both are Increasing. It was only a few years ago that rapid extermina tion threatened the birds. Then after a prolonged and bitter tight congress passed a law, based on the interstate commerce law, abolishing spring i shooting and creating zones of sport. , open and closed according to season. ; The United States Supreme court pro nounced tills law unconstitutional. But real brains were behind the movement. Ellhu Hoot is credited with showing the way out. The United States made a treaty with Canada for the protec tion of the migratory game birds com mon to both countries. Congress passed an enabling act and under the treaty the law that was pronounced unconstitutional by the Supreme court Is now protecting the birds In the United States and Canada. one great mlgrittory route for birds that nest In Canada and winter on the (jiuit of .Mexico ? perhaps the greatest ?Is along the Mississippi. The states along the river have now become so settled that old-time resting and feed ing places have mostly vanished. But bird sanctuaries are being established at Intervals through various agencies. On the Gulf Edward 1 A. Mcllhenny, long known for his protection activi ties. has now increased his holdings to 100,000 acres of feeding grounds. This tract, with the Rockefeller foun dation of 8S.OOO acres, the Ralney Mcllhenny and Louisiana state- wild refuges of 62,000 acres, the Sage foundation of 78,000 acres, and other small ureas In friendly hands, assure the protection of n Mock of about 750 square miles in Louisiana, with an unbroken Gulf frontage of 75 miles. One danger to wild life is the move ment all over the country to drain and reclaim marsh and swamp areas When the eventful day arrived the I church was packed, and the preacher. I taking for his text the words. "Like a Dove," worked his audience up to a rare pitch of enthusiasm. "Like a dove!" he shouted at the top of his voice, and at the same time rapped on the pulpit to warn the sex ton that the time for the "theatrical effect" had come. After a short interval the audience was surprised and not a little amused to see a cat being lowered from the roof bj a rope tied around Its body. I ' for agricultural purposes ? an inevit able result of increasing population. In the last congress a bill prepared to meet this danger passed the senate. It provides for the creation of govern ment hird refuges and public hunting grounds to be paid for by a system of federal licensing. The house defeated the bill. It will be revived in the Six- ' ty-elghth congress. A powerful influence in the saving of game from extinction is the dis covery by many of the states that their game is of great value in dollars and cents. Maine. Minnesota, Wash ington, California, Pennsylvania and oilier states pjolit to the extent of millions of dollars each yeqr because they have good sport to offer t-o home and visiting hunters and fishermen. These states have passed and are en forcing hunting and fishing laws in tended to make It possible to eat their cake and have It, too. When cake means hard cash the cake box is less likely to be emptied. Other states, with covetous eyes on these dollars, are taking measures that will ulti mately put them in the same class. There is an affiliation of nation wide organizations with approximate- i ly 4.000,000 members committed to the general principles of wild life pres ervation. The power of this affiliation has lately been shown In congress by j the defeat of bills permitting commer- I cial invasion of the national parks. Dr. Hornaday, pointing out that ? there are now in use in this country j 10.500,000 automobiles, says, among other things: "It is my estimate that the automo bile has Increased the perils of wild life by 50 i rr cent; and thus far I have found no one who has contended that this figure Is above the mark. It seems that the hunter of upland g.ime grouse, quail, woodcock, snipe, doves, rabbits, squirrels, and deer? j can by means of his new gasoline ally : hunt over at least four times as much ground in a day as the man behind a ho^se could exploit. "Wherever there are roads either 1 good or bad, or open plains over which ! I automobiles can travel, there will you I find the automobile going *h ? 1 bent* after whatever game is afoot. "Show me anywhere this side of the summits of the Rocky mountains and the sawtoothed peaks of the Sier ra Nevadas any territory with game In It that Is not combed over by hunters in automobiles. "In some places It may be possible ! to prohibit by local laws the use of ! automobiles In hunting. Such a pro- I ceedlng could be carried into effect anywhere by men who are not afraid! "The one thing, however, that would count heavily, and put an everlasting crimp In the flivver, is a fifty per cent reduction in all bag limits, and in the length of all open seasons, and reduc ing the automatic and pump shotguns to two shots. But as yet the masses of sportsmen of America have shown no signs of endorsing this program Can anything make them see, before it Is ton late, tliut now they are, with fearful rapidity, exterminating their own game and their owi sport accord ing to law?" | "Whar's de dove?" the preacher ! called out. "Inside de cat!" was the muffled re sponse from above. ? Pittsburgh Chron icle-Telegraph. New Way of Making Living.

Teacher of English Bible in ths Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.) went out of the city and improvised a shelter where he could see whether God would really destroy Nineveh. To protect the prophet, God made a j gourd to quickly spring up and throw j a shade over him. When the gourd i died and left Jonah exposed to the burning sun he prayed for death. The particular message of Jonah is that (tod is great ia mercy to all the na tions when they penitently turn unto Him from their sins. III. The Message of Micah (Micah 4: 1-3). In this message the prophet portrays | the blessings of the Messiah's king- [ dom in the last days. Three things are predicted : 1. The Supremacy of His Kingdom j (v. 1). It shall be exalted above all j the kingdoms of the earth. Its glory j shall attract the people from afar, j 2. The Extent of It (v. 2). Many j nations shall come with the urgent re- | quest that others accompany them, j The kingdom of Messiah shall be uni- j versa), it shall extend from sea to sea and from the river to the ends of the earth. 3. It Shall Bring Peace (?. 3). En mity will then be taken from men's hearts and they will love each other. When their hearts are changed they will no longer wage war againft each other, they will even destroy their implements of warfare. War will con tinue till men's hearts are regener ated. The way to get ware to cease j in to get men to love Jesus Christ. IV. The Message of Zephaniah (Zeph. 3:9). Zephaniah declares that , following the judgment upon the nations God will turn the people from their im pure speech so ffcat they may call upon Him. He declares that God's will Is i that all nations turn from their filthy conversation and call upon Him. He desires that all nations should come unto Him. Christianity.
