Now is the season when some boys,
and even those of maturer age, destroy
not only birds nests, but the builders
thereof. This is q clear violation of
the game law and unless the practice is
stopped sportsmen are determined to
take vigorous action. In the eye of the
true lover OF the gun and pointer
dog it is wantOn outrage to slaughter
BIRDS AG this season of the year. There
is no need to dilate on the harm it
does, and what the evil will lead to. If
the birds are not allowed to raise their
broods, if they are killed in the Spring
time and their nests destroyed, the
time will come, and right quickly, too,
when there will be dearth Of feather
ed game IN this country. SpOrtsmen
| earnestly urge that these violations OF
the game laws cease, else some needless
person will find himself in the meahee
| of fjustice.
