IL the December registration was abol-
ished," said County Commissioner s..
w. Roberts yesterday
MY observations have led me to be-
lieve that this registration serves no
good purpose. AS a rule 1t is simply
a copy OF the May registration with
here and there n few new names added.
Rarely are any names removed and
this has a tendency to make the De-
cember registration show a larger
number of voters than that made in
May.
"a registration of the voters made
In July or August would answer all
purposes, and saVs the county a lot of
money and the commissioners not a
little work"

Hunting for Birds.
Fred Hoey, of Hollywood, N. j., the
champion gentleman pigeon shot of the
world, Is expected In Scranton today
or tomorrow. He will stop at the Wyo-
ming house.
Mr.. Hoey was here several weeks ago
and had his first field hunting expert
ence, which is curious in view of the
fact that he has been the worlds mar
vel at trap shooting for several years.
On his previous visit he was accom-
panied by Edgar G. Murphy, like Mr..
HOey, one of New York clubdom, and
one of the worlds famous trap shots.
Mr.. Murphy has since been here with
party of friends. Mr.. Hoey this time
comes alone. He will make Scranton
his headquarters during a series of
local hunting trips with Clem Marsh,
jr. Previously the New Workers have
gone out with large parties, but their
luck was not of the best. In only
dual company Mr.. Hoey expects to
have better success.
