ANGLERS IN IOWA TO BE
LICENSED?
Fish and Game Warden Says Hunters
Rear Undue Share OF Burden.

n. c. Hinshaw, state fish and
game warden, recommends in his
annual report, that all persons
wishing the privilege Of fishing in
the lakes and rivers Of Iowa be re-
quired to pay an annual license Zee
The warden proposes to put the
fishermen on the same basis as the
hunters. The hunters now pay a
fee of 81 annually.
The proposed measure would per-
NIT women and boys under IA to
fish without securing a license:
The measure to license fisher
ago. It then created a storm and
the legislature took no action on
tue bill The state game warden
believes that the sentiment has
changed in the meantime and that
there are manv persons who now
favor the licensing of fishermen as
well as hunters.
ing, the revenue of the state fish
Is almost 500, 900 a year, would
be doubled, the warden believes.
The department now Is operated
entirely on the revenue paid in by
the hunters. he says. The law re-
quires the department par pt.t to spend ;,na "a
restocking the streams Of the state
with fish and in the enforcement OF
the laws protecting the fish. Mr..
Hinshaw, In his reports says this is
not fair. He declares that the men
who hunt and are willing to pay an
annual fee for. the privilege, should
pense of providing good fishing In
the lakes and rivers of the state.
That burden should fall on the
fishermen, he believes. !.
During the late summer and fall
Il OF 1916, the department. placed
i 100000 fish In the lakes and
rivers of the state. The fish car
was operated as late in the fall as
the weather permitted.

The Collar Button.

The color button is a small, agile
object which adOrns the neck of man
whenever his wife has not put it
somewhere else.
We presume it could be proven to
national teal nicely, if necessary,
cord which now makes the legal pro-
fession SO inviting is due to the fiend-
ish ingenuity with which wives con-
ceal the collar buttons of their hus-
bands. All up and down this country
last night and tonight and tomorrow
seen frantic husbands in their shirt
sleeves, hunting feverishly through
chiffonier drawers for bone collar
button which loving but absent
minced wife has secreted in her usual
thorough and conscientious manner.
While we should all love our wives
and give them quarter now and
then, it must be said that in this re-
spect wife is sore trial in the
home.
The collar button is little thing,
but it performs noble mission. II 1T
were not for this unobtrusive device.
for instance, the high band collar
would not be worn and the protuber-
ant. sliding scale Adams annie ne would you'll
scape. 1t is interesting to watch the
play of a mobile, selective gear
Adams apple which gives touch Of
,pathos to the neck of bass s0lOist,
but as usual thing we prefer to
have it enclosed. The collar button
does this at trifling cost, which
causes us to inquire why peOpIe do
not give more collar buttons and
fewer salad forks for weddino pres
ents.
The collar button is carried in the
shirt until change becomes unavoid-
able, when 1t is sent to the laundry.
Many a man has accused his wife
with the utmost bitterness of appro-
the time it is done at the laundry
being ironed out of shane. A man
who will treat q loving wife in this
manner Is minus the first instincts of
q gentleman AMI should be obliged
to get along without one.--noward

'.Cut 1t out" says the Eagle Grove
Times-Gazette explaining that lat
flooded foo with booze eel Circulars. ' Many
are gotten up as attractive as pos
sible. Some use Christmas holly, in
two colors, even going SO far as to
desecrate and insult an intelligent
public by attempting to link the
Christmas cheer with the devilish
stun that drives men to murder and
to the insane asylum. Public senti-
ment is crying out against the sale of
liquor, and q bill has been introduced
in congress to forbid liquor adver-
tisements from the mails. Z
