Game Wardens viii Protect
Fish In Lee County Waters
NEW GAME LAW DOES NOT ALLOW TRAPPING or FISH BET
WEEN FEBRUARY + AND JULY 1--WARDENS WILL
ENFORCE THIS LAW AND THAT AGAINST
DYNAMITING FISH.

A vigorous enforcement Of the law
to protect the fish in Georgia viii be
enforced in Lee county this season
under the supervision of Messrs ii.
d. Logln and Frank Hale, the
county game wardens, Violations
of this law are being made in Lee
county now, according to reports,
and these violators will be appre-
hended, unless they comply with
the requirements Of the law.
In Sumter county violations Of
the law against fish trapsin streams
from February | to July 1are being
prosecuted by the county game war
den. In fact, County Game Nc
Math Of that county gives it as his
opinion that every trap in the
streams Of Sumter county is in vio-
lation OF the law at any time OF the
year, as the law specifies that when
The trap is used at all it muet allow
one third Of the stream to be free.
But it is certain that fish traps are
not allowed by law in the streams
of Lee county during the period
from February | TO July /
From reports received here the
violations Of the law protecting fish
have been numerous in the past. 1t
lis reported that there are some fish
| traps being used in the streams Of
the county now in violation Of the
law protecting fish. 1t is said that
there is a trap on Kinchafoonee just
outside the limits Of Loesburg in a
small stream. Game Warden To-
gan is on the alert here for viola-
tions Of the law
In some sections Of the state Lee
county has been notorious for the
fact that fish have been dynamited
here. State Game and Fish Com
missioner Mercer has taken cogni-
zance Of this fact. tits the purpose
ST Mr.. Mercer to cooperate with the
county game wardens here and to
do every thing possible in discover

lators Of the law who may be APP
pretended. 1t is the purpose IL
the county game wardens to stamp
out these violations Of the law.
In this work the county game
wardens and the state game and
fish commissioner have the hearty
support and cooperation Of The
Journal. The Journal is for the
thorough and impartial support Of
all good laws, and it is generally re-
cognized that the new game and fish
laws is one Of the best that has been
enacted in Georgia or in any state
in the Union. 1t will be the pur-
pose Of The Journal to aid the coun-
Is game wardens whenever possible
in their enforcement OF this law.
The Journal will do its part in en-
forcing the law, and ii asks that
every citizen Of The county aid in
this work.
Lee county has in some sections
long been the subject Of slurs for
the enforcement Of the laws
here. Unfortunately there have
been some grounds for these char
ges, though not as broad as the ones
who cast the slurs had thought.
But it is true, as the people Of Lee
comfy know, that enforcement Of
the laws in the county has been lax.
II has hurt the people Of the coun-
ty at home and abroad. This is =
thing that every good citizen OF Lee
county should seek to remedy.
Worthy and careful observance Of
the laws IS imperative, if q law
abiding county is to be maintained.

CONTEMPLATED.

at a time. The erection Of five new
homes will make this section forge
ahead as the most popular residence
section of Leesburg. If the street
parallel to Main street just one block
south is opened, as is contemplated,
so as to make this street CO ntinuops
across the Central railroad tracks
from Mr.. ]. R. longs residence
west, this will serve to give a special
impetus to building onthe we tsido.
This will be still further increased
by the opening of a new street one
block west of Walnut street and
parallel with that popular residence
street, as is also planned by Mr..
Lee.
With the construction Of the large
new ginning plant already an
nounced the building up of the city
in IN industrial way is keeping pace
with the residence improvements,
The ginning plant has already been
announced, and is very likely that
there will be other industries to be
commenced in Leeshurg this sum-
mer. Every additional industry
helps in building up the town, and
every inducement is furnished by
the city to those who will come here
to establish manufacturing plants.
A few factories would help greatly
in building up the town and in
stimulating trade.
It is encouraging to know that
Mr.. Lee is constructing a
grist mill at Sanders and Green's
shop, where fresh meal will be sup
piled daily. This is a worthy en-
terprise. A garage will be cons
tructed later by Mr.. Lee below Y.
V. Johnson's store, which will al
ford accommodations for local au-
tomobile owners. These improve
ments show that building activity
here is lively.

A year Of unprecedented build
ing. especially in the residence sec
tons Of the town, is likely to bethe
record that will be made in Lees
burg in 1918. The building season
is Just opening, but announcement
has been mace Of four new resi-
dences that will be constructed on
the West Side, along Walnut street
between the residence Of Mr.. Dun
can Forester and the Galloway
Hotel, and streets adjacent.
Mr.. r. B. Lee is the promoter OF
these Improvements. He has Sc
cured from Mr.. E. N. Lewis, Mr..
Forester and Mrs. Galloway the
lard betx Mr. Forrester's bun
galow and the Telephone Exchange
for the purpose OF building these four
residences as an Investment. It IS
planned to make the residences neat
fve-room dwellings, that wlllgreatly
increase the supply Of these much
needed buildings here and will help
the growth Of Leesburg materially.
Nothing is needed here now more
than neat, home-like residences OF
moderate size, and the supply does
not come near equalling the &C.
mand. These new residences will
be we'll built, comfortable ard very
accessible to the business section of
town, which will make them among
the most desira 5le residences here.
Mr.. Lees intention is to commence
the work of building these residences
at very early date.
Another residence that is to be
built ON Walnut street is that which
Mr.. Henry Stovall will likely build
this summer on his lot opposite the
home Of Mr.. A. W. Goodwin. This
is a roomy, desirable lot, which Mr..
stovall hasowned for some time with
the intention Of building home up
on it eventually. If he builds this
summer, this will make the fifth
home to be erected on Walnut street
during the season.
This is the biggest boost that has
been given to the West Side in a
long time. For several years this
section. of town has been growing
rapidly, but hitherto the building
of homes has been made one or two

CHI, where Rev. J. d. Winchester,
