local boys. The best of feeling
has also existed on the part of
our opponents, and we wish for
it to remain so. One thing has
happened to mar this spirit of
friendliness and that was the
write-up of the recent Cimarron-
Meade game wherein the Meade
reporter took opportunity to
enter a few remarks of sarcasm
for the benefit of the coach of
the Cimarron team toward whom
he bore some emnity. Although
the high school students believe
that no apology is due from
them because they had nothing
at all to do with the write-up. yet
we do not hesitate to correct the
errors to which our attention
has been called. Mr.. Peterson S
and Mr.. Sharp's names do not
belong in the list of subs by any
means as they are not members
of the high school but local busi-
ness men of Cimarron. Mr..
Peterson a former member of
the "Terrible Swedes" of Linds-
borg, is the. coach of the
Cimarron team and no new
coach has been employed,
The Meade boys are planning
on playing Cimarron in the near
future and we are looking for
ward to the hardest game of the
season.

High School Notes.
Wanted: A high school yell.

Wanted: A high school yell.
Colds are very much in style
in the high school just now.
The new electric light fixtures
were installed in the various
rooms of the school house this
week.
Over one half of the students
of the high school had records of
perfect attendance for the first
six weeks of school.
The question of excuses for
absences is one that should de-
mand the attention of every par
ent. If Your child is absent, be
very prompt to give the teacher
the reason for that absence, and
be sure that that reason is
worthy the teachers considera-
ton. Too often the child is
asked to be excused by the par
ent for too trivial reason, and
too often the parent gives no
reason at all. So far this year
our attendance mas been very
good. however, some few stu
dents are very irregular in atten-
dance and in consequence their
work is amiserable failure. Try
as he may, the teacher IS power
less TO overcome this lack of
attendance unless we have the
cooperation of the home and the
parent.
The high school boys played
their third football game of the
season at Liberal Saturday. and
were successful in keeping their
goal line uncrossed. The final
result was ten to nothing in
favor of Meade. The Meade
boys started the game with a
rush and in about ten minutes
had ten points to their credit.
After that they seemed to slow
up and barley held their own
during the rest of the game.
Just once was the Meade goal
in danger and then McCampbell
saved the day by difficult tackle.
The game was clean and abso-
lutely feee from wrangling. Our
boys were treated royalty by the
Liberal high school, and expect
to repay their kindness and also
defeat them again later in the
season on the local grounds.
The line up of the two teams
was as follows.

HUNTERS! /! SPARE
THAT DEAR DOE (!
Heavy Penalty For Killing
FaWnS
GAME COMMISSIONER PHILLIPS
DETERMINED TO PUT A STOP
TO SHOOTING OF YOUNG DEER.

Any one who is able to distinguish
a muley COW is capable of going
! cunning for deer, according to John
M. Phillips, one of Pennsylvania
game commissioners. If the hunter
is not imbued with the art of making
| such comparison he had better re.
main at home and allow his gun to
rust, says Commissioner Phillips, foI
it is far more dangerous to kill a
doe or fawn in Pennsylvania some
times than it is to shoot man. A
| hunter who kills either animal will
be promptly arrested, made to forfeit
500 and serve 100 days in Jail
That is the penalty attached.
There is no law against shooting a
man by accident. So killing a doe or
fawn was made an offense more to
protect human life and compel hunt
ers to distinguish between a buck
and a doe. The doe must be saved
at all hazards, sportsmen say, in Or
der to protect the breed. Prior to
the passage of the present game laws
hunters would shoot promiscuously
at any clump of bushes which ap-
peared to move and especially if
something of brown color made it's
appearance in the moving brush the
hunter would blaze away and take a
chance. Many persons lost their
lives and the passing of the law rel
ative to the shooting of deer has
gone a long way toward putting a
stop to the slaughter of human life
and is protecting the deer at the
same time.
During the deer season we read
of many persons being shot while
hunting" said Mr.. Phillips, land
many of the shootings followed be-
cause no regard was paid to human
life. Hunters take a chance, but
since laws were passed prohibiting
the killing of the doe they have been
more careful, for they must distin-
guish between buck and a doe.
Mr.. Phillips holds that if the doe
in Pennsylvania is protected the state
will be overrun with deer within the
next 10 years and that venison will
be plentiful. He says that deer pro-
tect shot. There is more game in
Pennsylvania now than there has
been 26 years
The law forbidding the killing of
any but male deer with horns was
passed more to protect human life
than to protect deer. The state mas
funds to employ only 10 deputy
game wardens and Mr.. Phillips says
that there should be three times that
number. Calls come for deputies
during the game season that cannot
be supplied. The state allows but
So5.OS day to run this department,
or total of $4,000 a year, and
half of this sum is returned to the
state in penalties imposed on hunters
for violation of the law, making the
actual cost of protecting the game of
the entire state from $40 to $25 a
day, which Mr.. Phillips holds is a
pittance

Especial to The Citizen, J

Wilkes-Barre, Pa, Dec. 5.-A
special to The Citizen from the
Wilkes-Barre Times-Leader gives
further particulars of Mr.. Knapp,s
death as follows:
Clarence q. Knapp was staying
with Mail Clerk Myers at las South
Lincoln street. When member of
the family attempted to call him
Tuesday morning around O'Clock
he was unable to get any response
to repeated raps on the door. Sus-
pecting that something was wrong,
and detecting a strong odor of gas in
the hall he summoned other members
of the household, and the door was
opened.
The room was found full of the
deadly fumes of gas, and the gas Jet
it was found had been half turned
off. The body of Knapp was found
lying unconscious on the bed. DR..
Geist was hurriedly sent for. When
he came the body was still warm.
After working for over two hours
trying to restore circulation, he final
ly pronounced life extinct. The
Coroner was notified. The general
opinion seems to be that the affair
was an accident. Probably in trying
to shut off the gas before retiring
Knapp turned the cock too far, and
falling asleep he was overcome by
the deadly fumes.

HENRY STARBUCK KILLED.
Was Working on Bridge When
Struck by Train Near Port
JerViS

Jervis.
A most distressing accident befell
George Henry Starbuck, of Port
Jervis, formerly of Honesdale, while
employed repairing a bridge near
Port Jervis, Monday afternoon. He
evidently did not hear the trains ap-
proach, being struck and instantly
killed.
Mr.. Starbuck was a brother of
Mrs. Isaac Hawker and Mrs. George
Eek, of this place. Mrs. Erwin
Bodie, also of Honesdale, is a daugh-
ter of the deceased.
George Henry Starbuck was a son
of the late Sarah and George N.
Starbuck and was born in Newark,
N. j., so years ago last October He
was carpenter by trade and spent
the majority of his years in Homes
dale and vicinity. OF late he has
been employed with the Erie rail-
road Mr.. Starbuck was an active
member of the Methodist church in
Port Jervis and was teacher of a
Sunday school cass. His wife was
Ida Bunting before marriage. Four
children, beside the wife, survive,
namely, Mrs. Erwin Bodie, Homes
dale; Edward, New York City; Bes-
sic and Harold at home. He is also
survived by three sisters and one
brother: William w. Starbuck and
Miss Sadie Starbuck, Jersey City;
Mrs. Isaac Hawker and Mrs. George
Eek, both of Honesdale.
The remains will probably be
brought to Honesdale for interment.
