game WARDEN
Gives Out The Revised Game
Laws

With the arrival of September,
there arises in the breasts of all true
sportsmen a desire to take the trusty
gun from the wall and go out into
the woods in pursuit of the game fall
offers.
The sportsman of today is not as
free to hunt as was the one of a de-
cade ago. Laws for the purpose of
preventing the extinction of game
have been multiplied, so that it is
now necessary to consult these care
fully and at length to avoid possible
fines.
For the benefit of those who desire
to enjoy this sport and to protect
them against Imprisonment, Game
Warden Penrose has furnished the
Banner with lists of the game that
may be hunted now with safety.
These are:
Wild duck, wild goose, brant or
other water fowl, Sept. 1 to Dec. 10.
Rail, coot or mudhen and gallinule,
Sept l to Dec 10.
Black-breasted and golden plover,
Wilson or jack snipe, greater and
lesser yellowlegs, Sept 10 to Dec. Is.
Squirrel, from Sept. 10 to Oct. 20.
1t is extremely important that the
law in regard to squirrels be lived up
to, as these, to many hunters, are the
most attractive game and there is a
tendency to shoot without thinking.
Section 1416 of the game laws reads:
No person shall catch, kill, injure or
pursue a squirrel, except from the
fifteenth day of September to the
twentieth day of October, both inclus-
i've. At no time shall any person kill
or iniure more than five squirrels in
any one day.
