Perhaps the most unassuming man

father of Venice of America.

simple task to transform the barren
sands upon the strand where his
dream city now stands in all its Won
derful beauty and unique character
istics, but now, after fourteen years
of ardent endeavor and the invest
ment of millions in money, he may
we'll say 'Veni, Vidi, Wei" and revel
for the remainder of his years in
the Grams of his splendid achieve
ment-the most beautiful and unique
pleasure city in America.
Natural to suppose, Mr.. Kinney is
no longer a young man in years, but
in vitality, brain and Drawn he is
still in his prime, and the promise
of his future appears long and rose
empowered in the midst Of the art
and gladness of his own creation.

This popular device is operated by
L. Crandell, who purchased it from
the original owners and inventors, the
Thompson Amusement Company,
three years ago, when he remodeled
and greatly improved it, the total
cost exceeding 100000.
Mr.. Crandall was associated with
the Thompson Amusement Company
fifteen years in the construction and

matters.
He points with pride to the fact
that there has never been an accident

game division of department of ag-
riculture agreeing with the farmers
that there should be no closed season
for foxes, the new measure ought to
go through the Legislature without
any opposition.
The new code is made up in a very
concise form and is carefully indexed.
The whole code embodies the more
game and better fishing idea" Some
of the important provisions included
are as follows:
Quail are left on the songbird
list.
Trappers will be included in the
proposed hunters and trappers license,
whereas trappers under present laws
are exempt from license.
All laws governing the taking of
wild duck or wild waterfowl are made
to conform to federal statutes.
Whereas there is no limit on the
number Of crappies, rockbass, or sun
fish, at present, limit Of rs in any
one day is provided and a limit of
rs on bluegills instead Of 40 in a day
as now provided.
It is provided that any good citizen
who applies in good faith may be
granted a license to breed and sell
pheasants, mallard, and black ducks.
All protection is taken off the fox,
but the season on other fur-bearing
animals remains unchanged.
It will be unlawful to catch fish in
the inland fishing district except by
angling, and no net, spear or other
unlawful device shall be had in pos
session. The sale of all inland caught
fish except carp and suckers is for
hidden.
The secretary of agriculture is en-
powered to establish sanctuaries or
game farms.
The name of the officers who will
enforce the fish and game laws is
changed from "warden" to "game
protector"
No drastic changes are made and
many of the sections are not changed
at all. A very liberal shooting and
fishing season is provided throughout.
Holes in the law thru which violators
often escape conviction have been
closed, and it will be unlawful to
have ferret in possession while
hunting, while going hunting or re-
turning from hunt. A heavy fine
is provided for any interference with
game protector, or for refusing to
accompany such protector when plac-
ed under arrest.
Better protection is furnished to
wild life throughout and plans made
for extensive propagation of game by
the state.
Lake Erie licenses are raised and
certain regulations for commercial
fishing in that district are changed
slightly. :,
The code provides that only cock
pheasants shall be taken and not
more than three in any one day dur
ing the open season.
Any gun, or other devise used in
violating a game law, may be con-
fiscated by the state, according to the
new code, and no silencers may be
used on any gun while hunting.

Quentin ROosevelt's Grave

Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, through
the medium of the American Red
Cross, arranged in the last days of
his life to give substantial expression
of his gratitude to the people Of the
little village in France near where his
son Quentin, is buried. One Of his
last acts was a request to the Red
Cross to donate the $1,000 share of
the Nobel Peace Prize money re-
ceived from him, to the French vii
lage whose residents have kept Quen-
tin Roosevelt's grave decorated with
flowers and sent many tender COM
munications to the family.
When the Red Cross suggested to
Colonel Roosevelt that he designate
the way in which his contribution
should be expended, he Immediately
requested that it be disposed of in
this way. Colonel Roosevelt left the
decision Of the exact form his gift
should take to the Red Cross. The
wishes of the villagers in this respect
are now being consulted by officials
Of the Red Cross Commission for
France.
The American Red Cross decorated
the graves of 1000 American dead at
Surenes, France, on December %,
1918.

Uncle Sans Insurance

Watch the daily papers for the
governments plan for the future
handling of soldier and sailors insur-
ance. Details are not yet given out,
but it is known that, while the policy
holder has five years within which to
convert his present insurance into a
permanent form, within sixty days the
new government policies will be ready
and conversion may be made immed-
lately. The plan Of using the post
offices as medium of payment, it is
stated, will be in use inside of sixty
days.
The government rate on it's policy
will be trifle over 20 per cent less
than the same type of policy offered
by private insurance companies. This
difference in the rate is because the
government will pay all the overhead
and expense of handling the business
instead of taking it out Of premiums
as the regular insurance companies
have to do.
