modifying the country's forest re-
sources for war by helping the War

OF wood are suitable for wartlme's
special requirements; training iu-
spectors OF wood materials; ifnprov.
ing timber specifications; ana invests

Hunters must Observe Both Federal and
State Game Laws.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. 2sth.-In
making their plans to shoot migratory
waterfowl, hunters will do well to
note the dates of open seasons under
both Federal and State laws. This
caution by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture results from evil.
dence OF confusion in the minds OF
some sportsmen in regard to the OPEN
ing OF the seasons before and after
which no one may shoot these birds.
Ii a State law opens the season later
or closes it earlier than the dates pre-.
scribed by the Federal regulations.
the season in that State ia Just 80
much further shortened. Special at
tention Is called to the fact that the
Federal regulations do not authorize
any n to hunt or kill migratory birds
contrary to State law.
In certain States, as for example.
Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Ken.
lucky, Missouri, and South Dakots.
the season for shooting migratory
waterfowl under the State law would
open prior to the date of opening
under the Federal regulations were Il
not for the fact that the Federal
regulations supersede State laws in
such case Of conflict and prescribe for
these States September IS, as the be-
ginning OF the open season.

From Hampton Roads, Va.

Dear Editor~-I want to thank YOU
for the promptness you showed in
sending me the REGISTER. 1t was
like a long letter from home.
spent nine weeks aboard the L. S.
s. Indiana. And l want to say they
were very interesting weeks. There
were many things to learn from n
real battleship. 1t was quite different
from the training stations had been
in. AT first | only knew about halt
Of what they were telling me to do.
AT last | "feliN for most of the salty
"lingo." They have some very funny
ways, at any rate it seemed so to me.
The first thing we heard when we
went aboard ship was ''be careful of
fresh water" and after we were on
board ship a few days, we sure found
out why we should be careful with
water. When you have to drink salt
water, and 1t almost boiling, it learns
you to be careful with fresh water.
That is what happened to us. We
used pure salt and half salty water for
about three or four days. 1t sure does
make you long for some of those
good old springs or wells back in
Missouri.
Then the heat was pretty bad. Il
am in the engineering force.) We
could 60 below where the heat was
anywhere from ITO to ITO degrees.
That was pretty warm at first but YOU
soon get used to the heat. | have
seen some very interesting things
here on the coast. AT Yorktown |
saw where CORVALLIS was hid and
where he surrendered to Washing
ton.
We had a Prince from Norway to
review the fleet some two weeks ago.
Had some very interesting baseball
games, with such stars as Gainor,
M%aranviIle, Kaiser, and Johnston.
We had a fine place to 60 for recrea-
lion and amusement.
II you will pardon this long letter I
will try and write from time to time.
AS expect to "go across" soon, per.
haps / will have more news next
time.
Thanking you for the paper,
Yours sincerely,

New $500 Shortage in Kerth's Account
Est. Louis Post Dispatch.)

ISL. LOUIS fost-Dispatch.)
An additional discrepancy of ss,-
500 has been found in the accounts of
Louis j. kerth, secretary treasurer Of
the kirkwood Trust Co., who dis
appeared September IL and is still
missing.
W. W. Keysor, acting president of
the trust company, to-day said the
examination of the banks books by
State Bank Examiner Siebert was
concluded yesterday and i. is moi like
~ that further discrepancies will be
found.
The diversion of IS, 500 was in the
Liberty Loan account, which made it
appear that kerth had paid $500 of
the banks money to the Federal
Reserve Bank for bonds which had
not been delivered. Investigation
showed no such purchase was made.
keysor said the examination show
ed the cash had been taken from the
bank and he believed it had been used
by kerth to pay a balance which be
owed for stock in the Eagle Utilities
Co, of Kirkwood.
This brings the total discrepancy to
SIS 500. Last week $500 of the banks
money was found in the safe of the
kerth Mercantile Company in which
kerth was interested. This was part
OF $1,000 which had been intrusted to
kerth for deposit in another bank.
The trust company, keysor SAYS,
VIII lose nothing as a result of the
discrepancies, as the missing funds
been made good by cash and
mortgages given to the bank by
relatives and are also cover
ed by his $4,000 bond, executed by a
bonding company.
