Crow Heads Puzzle the Officials

"oh rainy days" hunting crows. They
are bringing them to the county seats
by hundreds. The heads are strung
like so many beads or pearls. and oft.
en- the strings measure four or five
feet In length. In communities where
the crows are plentiful-and that
seems to be all over Indiana-the gun.
ners can bag enough crows in a day
to realize q good compensation for
their work.
Here is where the rub comes in.
The county clerk who receives and
pays for the crow heads must keep
them until his books, stock and Office
materials are audited by the county
commissioners, which is once a year.
Now what is the county clerk going
to do with the hundreds and hundreds
Of crow heads brought to his office?
Surely he cannot put them away in
the safe with other valuables. Neither
can he throw them away. for in that
event he would have to stand tho
bounty money from his own pocket.
The result Is that his Office smells to
high heaven. and even the. sale of
marriage licenses has suffered q
slump.
And that is the reason the county
clerks of Indiana have signed a round
robin and forwarded it to Governor
Marshall, praying him to offer solu-
ton, or at least appoint q commission
Tor that end.
