NO TAXSALES Of
SOLDIERS HOMES
OR BUSINESSES
Attorney General Calls Aattention
to Federal Safeguarding of Men
in Service

That the federal government has
taken steps to protect the home and
business property of men in military
service is the sense of an opinion Of
Attorney General Haven yesterday to
the tax commission, who sent him a
question received from the treasurer
of Monroe county. The question was
asked whether the county treasurer
had authority to sell lands belonging
to Lieutenant J. C. Strachen, now in
the United States army in France.
The opinion declared that there is
nothing in the state statutes to pro-
hibit such sale, but described a fed
eral action which rules against the
sale for taxes of real property owned
and occupied for dwellings or busi-
ness purposes by person in the mil
ftary service or his dependents at the
commencement of his period of mill
tary service and still occupied and
used for that purpose.
The provision is that an affidavit
must be filed showing that the mill
tary service has lessened the ability
to pay the taxes. 1t is only possible
to sell by a decision of the court. OF
course, if the land does not come un-
der the federal description, it may be
sold the same as if a civilian owned it.

g By Dorothy FiIsOn Stewart 6

Have you heard the joyful tidings,
That the world has come to peace,
That the boys are coming back to us,
That the fighting, it has ceased.
That the snow-white dove of peace
Has flown to our beautiful shore
To tell us that the dreadful battle
Will come to us no more.
The Belgian rose has not yet withered,
The French lilly still doth bloom,
And the sorrow that was planned for
Has not ended in our doom.
Miss Columbia, "You have won it"
And Joan has helped you too,
For she knew it all depended,
On the dear, red, white and blue.
The boys are coming back to us,
Those that have not been slain,
Praising God in the highest,
For their noble, honest gain.
They have rescued little children
From the cruel iron band,
And have shown the German Kaiser
That he can not rule "our" land.
The Liberty Bell is going to ring again
The flag will be unfurled,
And message sweet, that peace is
here,
Will ring throughout the world.
Many hearts will be saddened,
Many hearts filled with joy,
And many kind loving mother
Will now embrace her boy.
The Star Spangled Banner
VIII ring from each throat,
And the song of America
Will sound in joyous note
God has been with us all the while
Aud our brave young Yankees
Have borne it all with a smile,
A benediction of Gods love is in every
7-a- heart,
And the angels again will sing their
glad anthem,
Peace on earth, good will toward
men"

GOOD READING
FOR THOSE Who
GO HUNTING
They Had Better Read and Remember
This Ere They Go Hunting
Migratory Birds.

Don't take shot at wood or
elder duck or you may get into trou-
ble These birds, among others, are
wholly protected by the new Federal
Migratory Bird Law.
This protection is the result of
treaty between the United States and
Canada making certain birds in most
of the North American continent i'm
mune from shot or bullet. Recent
ratification by the Senate gives eff
feet to the treaty.
For the most part there are but
slight changes in the law as it was
established by the Mclean bill
several years ago.
Some of the main features of the
regulations as they have now become
effective are:
No spring open season at all. The
fall open season throughout the coun-
try is made more uniform than be-
fore. In a general way this is be-
tween September and January 81,
with a period of not more than three
and one-half months for individual
species. These are some exceptions;
for example, the shore bird season in
certain New England and Middle At
lantic States which opens August 16
and closes November 30.
All States in the country have the
right to enforce their own individual
laws, provided these do not interfere
with Federal rulings. They are not
permitted to extend the Federal open
season.
Uniform bag limits are set for the
whole country; a hunter is not al
lowed to ship more than two days
bag limit in any one week. The daily
bag limits for one person are as fol-
lows:
Ducks Except wood and ider), 25
in aggregate of all kinds; geese 8 in
lC6dlC vi ali lullS, NOONo'
and gallinules, 25 in aggregate of all
kinds; black-bellied and golden plov-
ers and greater and lesser yellowlegs
Is in aggregate of all kinds; Wilson
snipe or jacksnipe, %; woodcock, 6;
doves (mourning and white-winged), ,
25 in aggregate of both kinds.
No Night Hunting
No night hunting is allowed. This
prohibits the hunting of migratory
birds between sunset and half hour
before sunrise.
The sale of migratory birds is pro-
hibited unless a permit is issued by
the Secretary of Agriculture. In cases
where migratory birds become injuri-
GUS to agriculture, permits may some
times be issued to kill them.
The propagation and sale of mi
gratory waterfowl on game farms
and reserves is not only allowed, but
encouraged.
The birds wholly protected by the
law are all insectivorous birds, fan
tailed pigeons, cranes wood ducks
and elder ducks, swans, curiews, up
land plover and all shore birds with
the exception of black-bellied and
golden plowvers, Wilson snipe or
jacksnipe, woodcock and the greater
and lesser yellowlegs. Certain non
game birds are also wholly protected.
These are auks, gulls, greges, guile
mots, herons, looms, puffins, terms and
the like.
