Hunting, Sport of Kings, Delights
Ell Pasoans; Idea Hunting Found
In the Mountains of the Southwest

Hunting, the sport Of kings. dating
back to the prehistoric times has
lost none of it's charm, even for men
OF the twentieth century Quite true
there is not the opportunity to- in
dulge ourselves in those sports which
the ancients found most enjoyable and
even necessary, for times and condi-
tions have changed with the cycles Of
years that have passed. since the days
of ancient Greek and Roman, Persian
and Carthagenian, but the love OF
nature is inherent in every man.
Forty story buildings have replaced
one story huts. paved streets have
taken the place Of desert trails. and
miles Of iron pipe have usurped the
service of babblingbrook,b but with all
these improvements, all these necessi-
ties OF an age run mad with progress
siveness, man. still holds to his love
of nature.
In no state or cline is this love
evidenced TO any greater extent than
IN the southwest, where the sun ever
shines and the soft winds bid one
welcome to spend his hours out of
doors, instead of being cooped up be-
side a heated fire place TO toast his
toes.
FL Paso has many hunting places,
many surrounding mountains where
deer and bear still run wild.
Is an Honest Sport.
Hunting is healthy, it is enjoyable,
invigorating, restful, and an honest
sport when properly INDUCED in, not

By O. A. Brann.

butchery such as is practised by the
man who calls himself a sportsman
but Stays with impunfty hundreds of
deer and other animals Of the wlIds,
for naught but the lust of blood
But to hunt properly. TO kill for
ones needs is good sport, sport of
kings, or If you will, Of presidents,
and Ell Paso is fortunate in having
opportunity to exert her efforts toward
such sport.
In the Sierra Madres.
Down in the Sierra Madres, the queen
range Of the Mexican mountains, less
than 100 miles from FL Paso, the
heart of. the southwest, one may find
good hunting. There the deer and the
bear remble about the Continental
divide secure in their. fastness from
the seeking eyes of the hunter in
winter But in the spring and sum-
mer they are less careful and furnish
good sport
There is no protection for game in
Mexico. One may hunt any kind of
game at any season Of the year that
he may elect, and for this reason it
would seem that these mountains
would soon become devastated of every
vestige Of wild animal. But the Mexi-
can is not a hunter He prefers bull
meat and beans to venison.
Hunting in the South.
Many Americans have found great
enjoyment with a shot gun and rifle
in the mountains to the south. Turkeys
fit about and deer run wild. A good
shot can get them every time and
enjoy the meat to his hearts content
