IF YOU LOSE 1T YOU LOSE.
No Duplicates Will be Issued For
Hunting Licenses.

When you get a hunting license be
sure to put 1t In a safe place because
II it is lost there is nothing to do
but buy another one from the cOun-
ty clerk II you care to hunt.
Duplicate hunting licenses will not
be issued by county clerks and coun-
ty clerks must make all remittances
for such licenses promptly. This was
the opinion of the attorney general
to Prof. L. L. Dyche, state fish and
game warden. The game warden
was also notified that all county
clerks who do not make remittances
promptly for hunting fees may be
prosecuted for embezzlement.
Under this law each county clerk
receives ten cents from each dollar
of the fee of the hunting licenses.
Under the law also each county clerk
must report the fees to the county
treasurer and the county treasurer
turns them into the state treasury.
No time is specified when the county
clerks are to turn in their fees. It
has been the custom for some county
clerks to keep the license fees for a
year and turn in the full amount at
the end of the fiscal year. Others
keep the money three to six months
and turn 1t in whenever they happen
ed to think about it or did not need
the money for their own use.
The fish and game department
needs money every month now SO
Prof, Dyche asked the attorney gem
eral about this and wanted to know
whether or not the county clerks
should turn in the money right away
or whenever they wanted to. The at
torney general instructed the fish
and game warden to notify all coun-
ty clerks that the money must be
turned into the county treasury at
once. Prof. Dyche probably will is
sue letter to all county clerks with
in few days instructing them to
turn in the fees at the end of every
week.
On account of the large number
of licenses lost, some of which have
been found and were being used by
persons other than the rightful own
er the attorney general also ruled
that hereafter no duplicate licenses
should be issued when one is lost.
Sufficient proof that license was de-
stroyed might entitle the owner to
a duplicate but just because he was
careless and lost his license does not
entitle him to a new one free.
