HARLAN FOOTBALL SEASON
CLOSED WITH FINE RECORD.

The Harlan football team closed
il. season with "A fine record.
The boys got started late but once under
way they dished up great article of
the fall amusement. Their greatest
feat was the holding of "By" Dickson 9
League Island Tar outfit TO a TO o VIC
tory. IL was not known at the time but
the majority of the Sailors were first
team men, and the League Island vars
ity was considered by many experts rs
the best grid combination IN the coun-
try. Naturally, "A , 10 o defeat from
such an outfit shed a lot of glory on
IIarlan's moleskn performers.
The IT, :. :. Vermont eleven was also
far from an amateur organization, al
though not quite as formidable as League
Island Tins was AN To 0 struggle.
If Flu" hadn't butted IN on the grid
program Harlan would undoubtedly piled
UP an enviable reputation for itself.
Coach Billy Martin Is entitled to con-
siderable praise for his fine tutoring.
Captain Dayton comes in for lots of kind
words. as do Mat Donohue, Eddie Char
rity, "Harvc" Hayes, Elliott, kcmpskl,
Bob Kidd and in fact every member OF
the team Joe and Bill Condor, rs bust
ness directors, also deserve commendation.
They went after their favorite sport
under many handicaps They stuck to
it minus the encouragement rendered
other Harlan athletic activities, and
richly meri, all the fine things that have
been said about them.

GAME PROTECTION LAWS.

Editor Every Evening:-.In answer TO
your editorial in the Every Evening of
December u, would say that the reason
We are asking for license for resident
hunters and fishermen is for the protec-
ton Of the game and fish of this state.
The license will provide ways and means
to protect the game and fish by providing
wardens whose duty it is TO see that no
game is killed out n season and that
no fish are caught out of season. These
licenses will provide funds for this pur-
pose, and us there Is only ono game and
fish warden in this state, IT Is IN utter
mpossibility to cover the whole state.
We should have two, at least, IN each
county.
The rra,in re,lbreast is an inscctipro,n
bird and is protected by our state laws,
rs well as the federal law The blue bird
YOU speak of is also protected by o,Ir
state laws.
The migratory bird treaty with Canada,
passed bv the federal government and
effective July 81, 1918, makes 1t mis-
demeanor, and on conviction n iine OF not
more than $500 or Imprisonment not
more than SIX months, or both. 1T also
protects the following birds as migrntory
insectivorous birds: Boloiinka, catbirds,
ohickadee, c1ickoos, fickefs, Hy-cotchess,
grosbeak. humminpbirds, kinglets, mar.
tens. meadowlarks, nighthawks or bull
bats, nuthatches, orioles, robins, shrikes,
swallows, swifts, tanagcrs, titrnice, thrush
as, vireos, warblcrs, waxwingr, whip-poor-
wills, woodpeckere and wrens. and all
other perching birds which feed entirely
or chiefly on insects
Now, how are we going To stop the
killing of our sung birds il we have no
license? How are we going 10 stop the
killing of our meadow larks and other
lnsectivormls birds that hive song
and II il beautiful to see and hear m the
spring and summer as voli 90 through the
country and also, robin reihreast who
calls nj the break of dawn and the catbird
with his cat calls And 50 on do.n thc
line. How are these birds going 70 thrive
from the fiend who has a gun and goes out
in the country and sheots any bird he
sees, 80 that nc shoots oft hls gun2
\ true sportsman IS III favor ot the
license, and bv having the license We Will
have protection for the song, the IN
scctivorous and tho game birds, and also,
the ways and means to increase our game.
That il what We are asking for, and ! see
no reason why sportsman would Kick
over the paying Of 81 10 license.

Somewhere in France.
Oct. 20, 1918.

Dear Mother and all:
Sunday, and am sitting by little
fireplace in little French shack Was
not allowed to write anything about
the trip the last letter, but can tell you
"a little more now. You may have seen
in the paper of the collision Of the
Herkimer and the Atlanta suppose
you saw by the card you got that /
sailed on the Herkimer. It was on
Sunday morning and we had very bad
storm. Some Of the old sailors said it
was the worst they had seen in many
years. They lost control Of the ships
from the rough sea. and the two ships
drifted together and the front end of
our ship hit right in the middle Of the
other ship. After we hit them, their ship
went on past us and it is said inside of
three minutes, the fires on their ship
were out as the water rushed right in
We could see land at this time, and
soon afterwards or rather that even
ing we landed n Scotland and there we
heard the other ship had sank. There
was hole in the end of our boat big
enough to drive team thru, but being
3 it was in the end by the tight water
compartment they could get our ship in
