The Fish and Game Law &0uilla papnaT

The new game and fish law was published in full in The Age-Herald and Montgomery Advertiser March 4. All persons interested in hunting should read this law and we wish to congratulate Hon. John H. Wallace on the comprehensive provisions of the same. We easily venture the asser- ton that Alabama has now one of the best game laws in the Union and The Banner takes special pride in 1t because 1t Is the work of one of our young men.

Well. there's no let up to it." said a Montgomery builder and contractor cheerfully as he took a seat by friend in street car yesterday.
 Fl mean. there Is no let up to the building boom in Montgomery. For the past two years have expected this building boom to subside, I didn think 1t could possibly keep up. l never in all my life have seen so much building going on in Montgomery. l have been thinking 1t was a boom and the end of 1t would come some time. l thought one thing that would stop 1t would be the high price of labor and ial. But instead of decreasing. the building operations in Montgomery keep on increasing The higher mater lal goes, the more houses are built. The more houses that are built, the greater seems the demand for still more houses. Unless you are in my business, you can't appreciate how much building work is under way in Montgomery.

Austin and Harley Newell went to San
Pedro today and arrested w. K. Peasey,
a grading contractor, M. Whaley and j.
Nelson, two Of his foremen, on two sepa-
rate charges of cruelty to animals. 1t is
alleged by DR. Medici De Bron, city
veterinarian of Pasadena, that the men
have been working mules on their grad
ing outfits that were unfit for service.
DR.. De Biron also has filed complaint
against Trejo Huello, q Mexican of Mon
rovia, on a cruelty to animals charge.
The two horses that Huello was working
were in such bad shape that they were
shot to put them out of the misery that
could not be relieved.
Another complaint filed by the veteri-
marian was against man named Ward
we'll with offices in the Delta building,
Los Angeles. He had an Italian employed
as driver to do freighting between Los
Angeles and Pomona. On the way out
one OF the mules that was lame and de-
crepit gave out at Monrovia and had to
be shot. The Italian claimed immunity
from arrest, as he had glass eye and
the sick mule was on his blind side.
