INORGANIC WARDEN BUSINESS. >


In@response to the article in the
last; issue of the Teller, we will
say that the Herald has admonished
hunters and marksmen to use ex-
IRENE care in the handling of fire
arms on every possible occasion.
Whether the Teller noticed these
warnings or not we are unable tc
say. If it did not do so we are not
surprised as it seldom looks fol
good points in others.
/ AS for the game warden part Of
it, it was not the intention of the
Herald to bring politics into thai
article. It simply brought forth
the idea that human lives anG
valuable stock are filter subjects
for presentations than the game
which those individuals strive sc
zealously to protect. Of course the
Teller misconstrued it, as would be
expected. But it doesn't matter sc
much, after all.
