Protecting the Deer

The general slaughter OF doe, as II
seems to The News, will soon settle the
deer question in Vermont by largely ex'
terminating them. If it is desirable to
have these animals roaming about the
woods, and The News believes 1t Is, the
females must have full protection from
hunters rifles. If their slaughter Is to BIO
allowed, then it would be better to do
away with all the costs and trouble of the
present deer laws and let the shooting go
ON at any time and anywhere That land is
not posted by the owners.
On the other hand, 1t can hardly be ex-
pected that farmers will submit to the
present deer protection when compels
them to stand by and see their crops
ruined by deer so domesticated that they
will come out of the woods with copy
of the Vermont statute under one arm
and an Unsuitable appetite for cultivated
crops predominating their whole inter-
Tor. Indeed, the farmers ought not to
stand for the present kind OF protection
on deer.
II, as has often been suggested in these
columns, owners of cultivated fields were
given the right to kill deer when found
in the act OF destroying crops, under of
course strict regulations, as is done in
some other states, The News is of the
opinion that there would be no demand
for the present doe-klling law and that
real sport in deer hunting. would be
greatly enhanced. News.

A Mean Trick.

A lawyer in London court. defend
ing a promissory note, went to lunch
leaving his books and citations on the
table in the courtroom. The opposing
counsel sneaked back into the room
and changed the places of all his book
marks. In the afternoon the lawyer,
taking up his books, referred the court
to his authorities. His lordship noted
every volume and page carefully and
took the case under consideration. In
rendering his opinion he said:
81 was inclined after hearing argu-
ment Of counsel for defendant to non
suit plaintiff, but find after referring
to the authorities quoted by counsel
none of them bear on this case. and |
am led to think that the gentleman
has been willfully trying to insult the
court. He has referred me to an ac-
ton of an freshman who sued the pro-
prietor of monkey for damages for
biting him. to a case of arson, one of
burglary, two of petty larceny and
three divorce cases. none of which
bears on an action to recover on a
promissory note. Perhaps the grossest
insult to the court is referring to
'Duckworth versus Boozyman.' an ac-
ton charging defendant with breach
OF promise. Judgment for plaintiff
with costs''
The lawyer never knew what the
matter was and to this day thinks the
judge was out of his mind.

Methodist

"Life for look at the Crucified One"
was the subject of the sermon at the
Methodist church last Sunday morning.
The nations of the world have been look.
ing to their ideals for centuries in the
hope of finding salvation, but the world
only hope is in looking to God. What
ever a man loves the most that is his
God; it may be horse, OF house, or
money; therefore we should acknowledge
Gods sovereignty by looking away from
these earthly things to him for salvation.
We should look in prayer and faith. We
should look for repentance, pardon and
sanctfication, in fact every part of saliva
ton, if part were left to us it would be
failure, for Jesus paid it all and when
He said it was finished, it was finished,
and we cannot make it any better than it
already is, If we were to ask the differ
ent churches the plan of salvation, it
would surely be by the way of their
church and there would be whole lot
to it, but God tells us how to be saved
in four letters, LOOK" The command
is in the present tense and salvation is
in the same tense, "Look and be saved"

The flag of freedom is unfurled up here!"
Awe came on men, and then mighty cheer
Swept round the green earth and the white seafoam
Prayers flew from valiant hearts that never roam
And old saa-faring eyes let fall tear
For him who had set heel on all mems fear
And from two arctic nights was forging home,
Then fell another word, " A lie A liel
Lay not laurel on the shameless brow;
Sole warden of the eternal snow am | !"
