Society of Game Thieves

Friedland boasts the most singular
mutual protective society in the civil
lied world In Assem- recently a union
was organized by seventeen game
poachers, comprehensive set of rules
being adopted. None but a recognized
game thief is eligible to membership,
The convention decided that in the fu-
ture the members of the union shall
sell only to regular game dealers. and
then only at current market prices
The dealers will be required to con.
tribute a certain amount of money
each year to the unions treasury. The
principal object Of the union is to sup.
port the families OF such poachers as
may be arrested and sent to prison. A
cast-iron resolution forbids all mem.
bers from killing game in the closed
seasons, the argument being that the
game laws must be enforced. The
Netherlands code provides for a fine
of 100 forms and term Of imprison.
ment for killing game out OF season
