New York, Feb. 27, 1919.
Good morning!
The weather today will
probably be fair.
DO the Wild
Ducks and
PeZicnnS

of the South have an almanac
of their own to tell them when
the State clocks strike the hour
when their governmental protec-
tion from sportsmen ceases and
when it begins again?
A gentleman familiar with the
facts has just told US that at
Mare Island, near San Francisco,
a military station where the gun
ners have constant target prac-
tice, the quail and other game
have season of protection from
sportsmen-the birds are running
and flying everywhere.
Despite the sharp, resounding
reports of rifles, the birds and
ducks never notice guns or
gunnerS.
But the remarkable and we'll
known fact was recorded also
that with the return of the first
day terminating the closed sea-
son, all the game disappeared,
not to return again until the
open season had passed.
Are these curious little living
creatures endowed with an intel
ligence equivalent to thinking
apparatus or is it to teach men
and women not to be reckless
of enemies surrounding them
against whom they should be on
guard?
The danger zones of life, trade
or profession are not always
plainly marked on the maps.
