people do make a sad mistake in. not
attending church regularly. They
w reng themselves by not improving
the advantages within their reach,

realize how much they miss in the
way Of Information and cultivation
in the assem- bling tegether-in the

is hunting game and comes within the
provisions of the hunters license law.
