The hunter in the field after the 1Otl
OF this month need be careful that h,
has bis hunting license in his posses
sion or he may find trouble for himself
Under the old law the County Gam,
Warden secured list of the huntiu.
licenses and carried the list with him
and when he found q hunting part,
out, by his book ne would know whit
was without the proper authority. Blu,
under the new law, the State Game
Warden Is stranger. He will be work
ing under orders from headquarters to
demand b showing OF q huntine
license from any hunter be meets snd
to act II the license is not at hand
This may make it inconvenient for tht
hunter who has paid for license and
went afleld without it, but it will be
more lnconvenient for the hunter who
cannot chow his authority to be out il
the field, and he is the man wanted by
the wardens
