Shooting Of Song
Birds Objected To
By Local Citizens
Request Game Warden to True
Parents That They Advise
Boys Against Shooting.
Quie a number of Shelby citizen*
are offering objection to a boyhood
habit, that of shooting song birds.
In the last week -or two numer
ous citizens have asked On me War
den H. C. Long to make some move
to flop the Increasing slaughter of
song birds about the .’tty. n number
reporting that boys with slingshots
and air rifles have ' een killing
mocking birds and other song birds.
The game law, the warden says,
protects practically all of what are
known here as song birds, but the
protection does not coyer blackbirds
and English sparrows. It is difficult,
In his opinion to be harsh in on
foreng the law with .ymall boys, but
he urges parents that they request
their boys not to kill song birds
and those which feed upon destruc
tive insects.

'Bonus Army’ Settles
Washington. June 1 -In drab,
abandoned buildings. the "bonus
expeditionary force,” composed of
World War veterans from the four
corners of the nation, settled down
this week to see what congress will
do about their demands for cash
payment.
As the rest of the country Joined
in honoring the soldier dead on Me
morial day, these veterans ,of ’17
and ’18 ate, bathed and shaved and
then moved to consolidate their
scattered groups under one leader
—Walter W. Waters, bkynd young
Oregonian.
Meanwhile, police officials argued
over the responsibility of their care.
Brigadier General Pelham IT Glass
ford, superintendent of police, held
that-the federal government should
defray their expenses while here. As
a result, Senator Cost igan <D>, Col
orado, introduced a bill to appro
priate $75,000 for that purpose.
Police estimated that 1,300 form
er soldiers are here—here to stay,
they vow. until their bonus is paid.
They have been quartered in two
buildings in different parts of this
city, 300 from the Pacific const in
one and 225 from many states in an
other. The remainder have not ask
ed for billets.
More are enroute. Three hundred
from New Orleans reached Bay St.
Touis. Miss., Monday after a 50
mile march afoot while 200 started
across the Nevada desert in box
cars. Another grroup of 300 is pre
paring to leave Cleveland. ,
As they arrive, police plan to con
centrate them at Camp Meigs, near
by. In the meantime, Glas:fard lias
called upon the war department for
field kitchens and bed sacks. The
Pacific coast, contingent slept on
bare floors.

Cline ' Promises Economy,

I have tried to see all the
voters of Cleveland County,
and if I have missed seeing
you, it was not intentional by
any means.
I have had lots of exper
ience in dealing with the pub
lic, have tried to give every
body a square deal, having
served four years on the town
board of Kings Mountain, the
last two, serving as police
commissioner.
I do hope and tru*t that you, who don’t
know me—my ability and disposition—will
honestly check up on it before casting your
vote.
Of course, 1 know none of us can expect all the votes and
T realize because a voter votes against a candidate, in many
cases, is not because he or she has anything against said
candidate. I believe each one of my opponents will appre
ciate vour support. BUT I KNOW AND ASSURE YOU THAT
NO ONE WILE APPRECIATE YOUR VOTE AND SUP

DO ALL IN MY POWER TO KEEP DOWN THE EX

shown me in this campaign, and—if you see fit to nominate
