I believe We have them and I hope

Now one more thing I desire to
speak about. In the general pre-

"a Bond Issue to relieve it, ! un-
derstand Bonds must be used for
specific purposes, which, Of course,
would be used, necessarily. in
building our roads We gould
then use our taxes in paying our
debts. | have been told that our
commissioners have not been: able
to'borrow money at certain times
of the year and that they were.
forced to buy supplies for their
road force upon indefinite terms Of
payment. New, my experienced
personally, with such matters is
that any eco m m Q da tions cost
money, hence it appears to me
that we could secure money upon
our bonds at a. very low interest
and as a business proposition the
logical thing to do is to take the
necessary steps to bring about an
election for this purpose and /
would suggest that one of the very
FIRST things that our Chamber Of

viii Enforce Game Laws
in County This Year
: ..L.nd.vn." Determined to Stop Violations,


Land owners in Lee county are
determined to stop hunting, fishing
and trespassing upon their proper
ty. Many of them have given or
ders to The Journal for signs to be
posted on their lands, warning vio-
latOrs of the law.
Though under the new game laws
it is not necessary to post lands, as
no one is permitted by law to hunt
on land without the permission Of
the owner, nevertheless large
number Of theland owners are maxi
sure that every would-be yiolator
of the law may know their inten-
tons. Taey are posting signs,
warning all those who would hunt,
fish or trespass on their lands to
keep off.
1t is their claim that the posting
Of signs helps to impress still better
the meaning of the game law and
to make would-be violators more
careful.
