FIiCkerS Must Not Be Killed.

Those farmers and fruit growers who
know that the flicker is one of our most
useful insect destroyers and the friends
of the feathered tribe generally will be
pleased to learn that it has ascertained
that these birds are fully protected un-
der an existing law and that the penalty
for killing them is not less than So nor
more than $40 for each offense. State
Game Warden Oregon Milton Dennis
has given instructions to all the deputy
wardens to enforce the law and arrest
all persons who kill fickers. The variety
of woodpecker known as ''hicker" in
this section has various local names in
different parts of the country. The De-
partment of Agriculture classes it as an
insectiverous bird Of value only, second
to the whippoorwill.

AN ADDRESS TO DEMOCRATS
Chairman Vandiver Calls Attention To
Methods Of Marking The Ballot And
Gives Other Good Advice To Voters.
TO DEMOCRATS OF MARYLAND:

TO DEMOCRATS OF MARYLAND:
Election Day will be Tuesday.
November 9th. In the counties the polls
will be open at o'clock A. NJ. and
close at O'Clock 7. M.
1t is our hope that every registered
Democrat will go to the polls as early
as he can and vote.
See that the ballot given you has en-
dorsed upon il the initials of the Judge
from whom you received il.
See that the Judge who gives you the
ballot calls out your name and residence
in distinct voice.
Vote the ticket by marking cross
X mark in the space provided there
for to the right of and opposite the
name of the Democratic Candidate for
Congress.
Make the cross X mark entirely
within the square provided for the pur-
pose: namely. to the right of the name
of the Democratic Candidate for Con-
gress.
The Court of Appeals has decided
that the cross mark must be made en-
tirely within the square and not extend
beyond it in any way.
DO not make any other mark what
WILL NOT BE COUNTED.
ANY mark whatever on the ballot ex-
cept the cross mark X, whether in the
square or out of it, will cause the ballot
to be rejected.
Do not make dot or circle or any
other mark but a cross X mark in the
square.
If you mark any square on your ballot
with any kind of mark other than the
cross X mark ENTIRELY within the
square. YOUR ballot WILL NOT BE
COUNTED.
Be sure not to deface or tear your
ballot in any way.
If you make mistake in marking il.
do not attempt to make correction:
return it to the Judge and get another.
You are entitled to a third ballot if the
first two have been spoiled and return
ed, but you must not consume more
than seven minutes in marking it,
Mark your ballot with indelble pencil
which you will find in the election booth.
DO not use your own pencil; your
ballot will not be counted if you do.
After marking your ballot, fold it ex-
actly as it was folded when handed to
you by the Judge, and give it to the
ballot Judge without permitting anyone
to see how you have marked il.
See that the Judge tears off the
coupon and deposits the ballot in the
ballot box before you leave the room.

Chairman State Central Committee.
