BOTH FEDERAL AND STATE GAME LAWS TO BE OBSERVED

In making their plans to shoot mi gratory waterfowl, hunters will do we'll to note the dates of open sea sons under both Federal and State laws. This caution by the United States Department of Agriculture re- suits from evidence of confusion in the minds of some sportsmen in re- gard to the opening of the season when the dates conflict under State and Federal laws.
 The Federal law and regulations limit the seasons before and after which no one may shoot these birds. If State law opens the season later or closes it earlier than the dates prescribed by the Federal regulations, the season in that state is just so much further shortened. Special at tention is called to the fact that the Federal regulations do not authorize any one to hunt or kill migratory birds contrary to the State law.
 In certain States, the season for shooting migratory waterfwol under the State law would open prior to the date of opening under the Federal regulations were it not for the fact that the Federal regulations super
 
 flict and prescribe for these States Sept. Is as the beginning of the open season.
 Under the migratory bird treaty act regulations it is lawful to hunt water fowl (except wood ducks, cider ducks, and swans, for which there is no open season), rails, coot, gallinules, Will son snipe or jacksnipe, black bellied
 
 cock and mourning or white-winged doves during the open seasons pre- scribed by the regulations The sev- eral States, howeyere, are authorized under the treaty act still further to protect migratory birds.
 Under the treaty act and reguia- tioni the sale of all migratory birds other than propagated waterfowl. 1. prohibited throughout the United States except for scientific or propa. gating purposes. Maximum bag linn. it's are also prescribed and, when per mitted by State law, two days l!mi of migratory birds may be shipped O, transported from one State to an. other in a calendar week Hunter are especially advised to familiariz, themselves with the provisions of th, "Nt anu he6 uldtloHs' copies o which or other information concern ing which may b7 haG by con1muni eating with the Bureau of Biolorica Survey, United States Department 0 Agriculture, Washington, D. c.

JOHN DOUGLAS ADAMS
 DEFINES AUTOCRACY
Speaker Before Remington Employees Tells Stories of
 Experience in Trenches.

One of the best addresses on the war was delivered last night at the High school auditorium when pr. John Douglas Adams, under the aus pices of the Foremen's association of the Remington-A Arms, sent out a mes Gage of pathos and thrills to the large audience gathered there. His subject was Impressions from the Front Line Trenches" and the picture he depict ed of those boys fighting lover there" for the cause of humanity, made his audience see the situation in a new ! light.
 As an introduction to his lecture, Dr. Adams defined very strongly just what the meaning of the present war is and the two principles that form the basis of this conflict.
 Democracy" he continued, lis the soul of this country, idealism IS de- mocracy. And George Washington made this country a nation of democ- racy when he turneI the colonies into a nation This was the first step of democracy.
 '-The liberation of race is the sec- ond step of democracy, and the third step is the unification of that nation"
  tocracy, which every one has learned to know during this conflict. He said that autocracy is the domination of a ruling family of a nation, and contin- ued with illustrations of the present German militarism that harvested a principle of the Middle Ages.
 "The war;" he said, 'is simply in ternational surgery. Tine cancer of autocracy has entered the body of the earth and our boys are performing the surgical operation to save the life of humanity"
 Dr. Adams is the posseSsor of a wonderful voice and the audience was greatly impressed with the manner in which he spoke At times his voice was very soft and low, like the music of a reverie, and then slowly rising to a higher pitch until his voice cried out with pain.
 After relating his experiences while in the front line trenches, which pre- scented a great deal of rumor, al- though his experiences must have been pretty dangerous, he concluded his address with an appeal to the mer and women of this country to give the boys the three things that they want And. this is what our boys want:
 First, they want that we shall no let them down.
 .-- Second, they want an equivalen from us for their services; and third that we shall see this war through.
 Henry s. Kimball, president of tn, Union Metallic Cartridge company could not attend this gathering owint to illness, so Douglas Williams, man ager of the concern, introduced tn speaker with a short address.
 Speidels orcsehtra furnished patri otic music in which the audienc joined.

.BOHEMIANS SING
 GOING TO BATTLE

The American lads are not the only soldiers who look upon singing as an important part of military life. The Bohemians too are great singers. Im- medlately after the recognition of the Czecho-Slovaks by France. one of the Bohem1an-American boys in the army wrote to his family:
 We sing going to and from the drills, and we sing in our barracks. Imagine the French mountains echo ing Bohemian and Slovak songs. And when we sing, 1t is real singing. At first I could not understand why. but now 1t Is clear. After three hundred years of silence, our nation is raised to life again, and is taking it's place

which until now has been usurped by Austria. For the first time since the Battle of the White Mountain in 1920, our troops are fighting for the CzecEp-Slovak cause. It is no won- der that they broke through the Aus trian line"
 These men will continue to fight with even greater zeal now that the United States has recognized their status as an independent nation. Their singing is one of the potent forces in their attack on Austria. The Czecho- Slovaks in the Italian army sing in the trenches and their brothers on the other side hear them and manage as best they can to desert from the Aus trian lines and get into the Italian camps.

FORESTS OF THE
 LITHUANIANS CUT

The Germans have cut down most of the large forests in Lithuania In their exploitation of the country, they have made use of practically all the available timer. Ten thousand pris- oners of war have been formed into numbering gangs to do the work. This destroys the most distinctive feature of the Lithuanian countryside; it's woodland. Before the German inva- sion, the whole Lithuanian plain was covered with groves and orchards. An observer from a balloon would have been able to see little else but field and forest, with here and there an occasional village, and on each side of the straight narrow roads a deep ditch to carry the drainage of the arabic land into the rivers.
 It Is not to be supposed, however, that the Lithuanian villages have been devastated like those in Picar- dy. A Lithuanian town is a pretty sight, consisting as 1t does of a num- Der of matched houses shaded by trees, each house having it's garden and fruit trees, and it's little yard. all surrounded by wooden paling. The cottages are verey small, having a I frontage, say, of thirty feet, divided into three rooms, all on the ground
 floor. The stove, a highly important piece of furniture in the hong winter
 nights, is in the central apartment Most cottages are built of logs, | squared only on the inside; but the | chimney, when there is one, is of
 brick. While the poorer houses are
 unpainted those of the better class
 are colored gray, their tiny windows
 having green or white shutters, on
 which groups of flowers are some | times rudely painted.
