Dennis Office, 21I st. Paul street, as headquar.
tiers of the department IL will be the Office of
record, and will prove q great convenience to
the State officials and all interested in the pro-
lection and propagation Of the game and fish
of the State.
1t especially meets with the Governors ap-
proval, because it places the department in
closer tonch with him and the State govern
ment at Annapolis, and will enable the State
game warden to devote more time to field
work, which the Governor desires. The move
will establish between the game warden and
the Maryland Game and Fish Protective Asso-
citation closer and more effective relations than
those of the past five years.

ton and one of the best-known game and fish

tice AS secretary for the Maryland Game and

fish ladder cases of the upper Patopeco and the
pollution Of the waters of the Potomac river.
