ter to The Sports and Pastines department.
OF the PoSt-fnteliigeneer:
One week from yesterday August IL

While there are few objectiona hla
features In the new game laws az q ynola
they viii compare very fayoraaly with
the game laws OF other states and as n
law II should be respected. There lives
no HIeaner or more contemplate specimen
OF man than game poacher and wher-

farious work he should be prosecuted 10
