game season has instilled the spirit
of the hunt in you, there are two
precautions you must take e yon
wish to keep out Of the hands of Game
Warden Zimmer.
First, and most important, you
must obtain a hunting license,
Then. il yoI are to hunt on private
property, YOU must get the written
permission of the owner
The lack Of either of these papers
will bring official wrath upon the
huntsman. The Warden, who per-
sonally Is the mildest and most pleas
ant sort of man is a grim and re-
lentless being when acting IN his Off
cial capacity.
Although the season is little more
than day old, the Wsrdens dis
pleasure already has been visited
upon seven hunters, who either lacked
a license or permission to hunt upon
private property. Five of the hunt
ers had failed TO get the State IL
cense and two were hunting without
the owners consent

PREDICTS
FINE HUNTING
SEASON
New Commissioner Commends
Nimrods on Zeal in 0beying
Laws-Game Plentiful.

State Game Commissioner Davis
looks for an exceptionally fine hunt
Ing season this year. He believes the
disposition among spOrtsmen is not
only to observe the law but jealousy
TO guard it.
He says the business Of issuing
hunting licenses has been very active
in his Office of late and that from all
quarters OF the State come reports
that game is more plentiful and closer
in this year than for many years
past.
IF tine Issuing of licenses indicates
the amount OF interest the sportsmen
of Georgia take in the hunting season
and the enforcement of the present
game law the season opening to- day
likely will be most satisfactory one
from every standpoint" said Com
missioner Davis at the Capitol Thurs
day
License Issuance Heavy.
Since | assumed charge OF this
Office the rush to get licenses has
been tremendous, and there were
many licenses issued before | came
In. Reports from all sections of the
state indicate that quail are plentiful
and so we'll has the law been OBJ
served during the closed season. that
not only are there many more birds
than formerly, but they are not con
fined to the remote rural sections. as
was the case few seasons ago.
Il believe there Is a disDosition
throughout the State to observe the
law-very few hunters fail to sympa-
thize with it. and practically all Of
them earnestly seek to observe it's
limitations and restrictions
The only trouble, at least the big
sest trouble, is that there yet are
many Georgians who do not under
stand the law, and most of those who
get into difficulty because of its en-
forcement do so through ignorance.
Compliments Newspapers.
Every hunter no matter how hum
bic, who applies TO my department for
information concerning when he may
hunt. what, and where, will be
promptly replied to, and fully in
formed. 1t is the very greatest pleas
ure to dispense this sort OF informa
ton.
Il think it is only question. OF a
few years until game will be most
plentiful all over the State-certRinlv
sufficiently so to insure many years
OF fine shooting
"A most encouraging and helpful
thing is the way the newspapers OF
the State spread information con
corning the operation Of the game
laws Sometimes think the press OF
the state is the very best friend the
law has"
