OlOOQ IN Ln01r necKS. But IL is pos
sible for even men on small salaries
to own permanent camp of their own
In wild unfrequented places, places
where they can be free from the pres
ence Of the summer boarders. out OF
reach of the sound of the trolleys and
even where the honk of the automo-
bile is seldom heard Such places ex-
list within a hundred miles of almost
every city in America, but they can
only be found by making little jour-
neys in search of them. They are
not on the list of the real estate boom
ers because the very thing that makes
them valuable to campers Is the fact
that they are tucked away In unfre-
Quented corners. The mountains In
Pennsylvania within a hundred miles
of New York city, notably in Pike
county, abound in small lakes, lakes
which are usually filled with big fish
or which can be stocked with bass and
other fish, according to the conditions
Of the water and tastes of the fisher
men. There also exists within the
circle of a hundred miles of New York
city hall spare supply of such big
game as lynx, bob-tail cats, black bear,
Virginia deer and smaller game, includ-
ing foxes, raccoons, 'possum, great
northern hare, rabbits, rough grouse,
woodcock. various waterfowl and
quail OF course, it is almost
crime under present conditions for any
one to help the rapid determination of
these animals by killing those found
so near the centers of population but,
with proper conservation and common
sense game laws, this supply can be
made to last indefinitely and at the
same time furnish game for the sports
men, and the more people who become
interested in outdoor life the greater
will be the interest exhibited in the ef-
forts made to protect and increase the
wild life of our woods.
1t is tact not generally known that
the public is almost wholly dependent
upon the sportsman of this country
for the enforcement and the enact
ment of the laws protecting the wild
life. 1t is usually the chump who
does not know one end of the gun

Fortune and Misfortune Of Mt Zion

and the farmers are jubilent and an

large Hagerty field has been shut down
but the manager says they will re-

Our school, which is to close soon, is
taught by our accomplished neighbor
and highly esteemed friend Miss Leila
Jaynes, who, it is said will not teach
any more. Our best regards will go
with her and her future vocation.
Our neighbor Albert Lemons, who
has been on the grand jury the last
week or two is at home again.
This is preaching day at Mt Zion,
but the weather is unisvorable and q
good ATTENDANCE is not expected. Our
community has sustained a great loss
by the departure of two of our most
accomplished christian workers in the
persons of, first, Jim Foshee, whose
presence we enjoyed only little more
than year, but while here we learned
to love him spiritually. and the good
sisters, young and old found in him a
modest straight forward man, who they
learned to love exceedingly as their
corner stone of victorious and modest
life.

manned with us only about year. He
was equally as good christian worker.
and is a singer of rare quality, and ev

was instrumental in bringing many
souls to Christ last August, and we re-
greet his departure, but be had to go.
He left an impression on some OF our
people that will be long remembered,
especially in the person that now owns
the home he vacated.
1t would seem that God was not mer-
ciful in removing those good and noble
men from us. but we are consoled in
the fact that they will continue their
work unbroken. Some of our sisters
in the church are almost ready to give
up and without cause-for these two
men were their hope of future christian
work at Mt ZION. But in the words of
