MY FOUR YEARS
IN GERMANY

Ambassador James w. Gerard $
My -Four Years in Germany" a
document of vital Importance in the
history of this country, has been
screened under his direct supervis-
ion and the film version will be
shown at the Apollo soon.
Practically the whole picture is
concerned with the Ambassadors
experiences in Germany from the
time the war broke out in 1914 un-
til the United States joined the Al
lies. Perhaps the incidents shown
which will prove of greatest interest
to the spectator are Mr.. Gerard's
audiences with the Kaiser The con
versations that passed between them
are illustrated In the subtitles. The
climax of it all is reached when the
Kaiser slurs the United States and
It's fighting ability. and the screen
displays a multitude of our land and
sea forces.

MUST OBSERVE STATE
AND FED. GAME LAWS

Washington, d. c., Sept. lin
making their plans to shoot migra-
tory waterfowl, hunters will do well
to note the dates of open seasons I'M
der both Federal and State laws.
This caution by the United States
Department of Agriculture results
from evidence of confusion in the
minds of some sportsmen in regard
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 lat
er or closes it earlier than the
dates prescribed by the Federal reg
ulations, the season in that State is
just so much further shortened. Spe-
cial attention is called to the fact
that the Federal regulations do not
authorize any one to hunt or kill mi
gratory birds contrary to the State
law.
