theHiHeh'-butrtbh ? /
for the Game .1 :f
? 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?"

! called out.

IC ? The Prophets as Missionaries.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC
?The Missionary Message of ~the
Prophets. , ' .
Perhaps the best way, to teach this
lesson will be to note the message of
the individual prophets.
I. Tht Message of Isaiah (Isa.
,30:1-3).
1. Its Central Fact (v. 1). Israel's :
light, her Redeemer, has come. The !
primary meaning of this is not the in
carnation of the Redeemer, but His j
manifestation in glory and power as j
He comes back to this earth to reign
as Israel's King. This glorious fact
is presented under the figure of a
bright sunrising. It will be a glorious
morning without clouds dawning upon
a dark world.
2. The Ringing Summons (v. 1).
Messiah himself calls Israel to arouse
herself from her long sleep of in
difference ;^d shine forth in the glory
of her glorious king.
. 3. The Darkened Earth (v. 2). In
spite of all the progress of the arts |
and sciences spiritual darkness ?
blindness touching spiritual things
has settled down upon the earth. It
will be peculiarly gross in the last
days. It can only be dispelled by the !
glorious appearing of the Lord.
4. The Elessed Result (v. 3). The
Gentile nation shall come into the ,
light, being attracted to Zion by the j
appearing of the Lord. In the midst |
ol' such darkness the sudden appear- j
ing of the light shall attract the na- j
lions and draw them to Jerusalem.
I
II. The Message of Jonah (Jonah
4:11), 11).
Jonah was commanded by the Lord
to go to the wicked city Nineveh and
proclaim its destruction in forty days,
lie started in the opposite direction in
order to escape this unpleasant task.
A storm came up and the superstitious
sailors threw him overboard. lie was
swallowed by a great fish and after I
three days and nights was cast upon
the shore. Having learned the needed ,
lesson he went to Nineveh and :
preached with such earnestness that
the whole city repented. The mercy
shown by the Lord In sparing this
wicked city so angered Jonah that he >
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.
In order to abolish Christianity the
one thing needful is to get rid of Sun
day. ? George Holyoake.
