Popular at the Opening Of the

Bows, Ia, Sept. 3.-More than 100
hunters, from all parts of Iowa. lined
up on the shores of Wall lake, for the
opening of the hunting season.
Though the lake has been leased and
will be drained unless present ar
rangements are changed, the situation
has not seemed to affect the popular
ity of the well known Wright county
game rendezvous.
The hunters had arrived several
hours before the legal open season
was on and they lined the shores of
the lake at sun up. They were, with
out exception, we'll repaid for their
efforts.
Many had shot nearly the legal linn
it of birds early in the day and they
retired to allow late corners to go on
the lake. Thousands of ducks and a
number of wild geese, Matched on the
lake, were hardly "gun-shy." owing to
previous rigid enforcement of the
game laws.
A number of fine strings of prairie
chickens were bagged in the vicinity
of the lake
Among the first days hunters were
Prof. L. Hezzlewood of Iowa Falls,
Sam Foster of Mason City and G. H.
Jameson of Bows. These men con.
stitute a committee appointed by the

he will be given fair and impartial
