Migratory Bird Law
Has Not Been Repealed

New York City, Jan. 10EThe
American Game Protective Associa-
ton, the sportsmen's nationaI orga-
nization, brands as erroneous an AS
sociated Press Dispatch just sent out
to the effect that the Supreme Court
at Washington has declared the Fed
eral migratory bird law unconstitu-
tional. The statement of the Asso-
citation continues as follows:
'"The fact is that the so-called fed
eral migratory bird law was repealed
on July 8, 1917, when the President
signed the Canadian treaty enabling
act. The new measure which super
seded the old one lis a better and big
ger law with exactly the same object
as the former measure. 1t provides
what the former law lacked, an eff
cient machinery for its enforcement,
and the governments of this country
and Canada are now squarely united
in the protection of all the birds OF
the continent north Of the Rio
Grande.
What happened at Washington
was that the solicitor asked
to have dismissed his own motion be-
fore the Supreme Court which was to
test the constitutionality of the ofigi-
nal migratory bird law. 1t was no
use arguing the case, because there
is no longer any Weeks-MeLean law.
"The federal regulations, there
fore, which absolutely protect in this
country the birds which are valu-
able to agriculture and which make
open seasons for the migratory birds
which are shot for sport, are stillSin
effect and the Federal Departmentsof
Justice will vigorously prosecute any
violations of these regulations.

lots Of times during the last few
mcnths that / didn't think l had a
ghost Of show of coming back.
Speaking of the Dorchester boys,
l haven't seen them since we first
went into the fight. Some were
wounded and several went to the hos
pital sick. 1 haven't been to the hos
pital as yet, though was in the fight
practically all the time from Septem-
Der till November 11th, when hos

stood it wonderfully.
1 am glad Oscar and Russell are
well. 1 expect they will soon be com
ing home. Gee, 1 hope you all will
keep well and ehappy, for l am
coming back sometime. Love to all,
from your loving son, DOC.

 The absence of American representa- lives at the conference has caused com nient among the delegates now on the scene. Camille Huysmans, the secre- tary of the Socialist Internationale, was outspoken in criticism of the state de- partment at Washington for withhold ing passports.
 When it was suggested that William English Walling and Charles Edward Russell were already in Europe, M Huysmans replied:

Those who have passed through the

 | attractive notices draw attention to
 | the opening of the spring term which
 1 begins February 1. There will be an additional class in aesthetic and folk dancing because. of the demand for this lighter form of bodily exercise. Miss wolfram is greatly in need of Polly Anna club, which meets every Wednesday from 2:30 to 3:30. This class is composed of girls from the Mercy home and is under the exten- sion department. but after their meet ing with Miss Jones they adjourn to the gym for exercise and then go to the pool for a swim. Any one who feels disposed to give an hour once a ! week to play for the girls, please tele- phone Miss Wolfram, Main SAGA.

The fact that a perfectly mag nificent mirror for the lobby was given last year by Dr. F. F. Perkins. with out even having been hinted at that such glass was coveted by every ore of the 93 girls who took parting glance at themselves as they left for business every morning, led the com mittee to believe that a bureau would be forthcoming.

WHITTLESY DIDN'T
 SAY IT AFTER ALL

Washington, January 25.-(Special.) ) And after all, Whittlesy didn't say it. The Associated Press said that he said it. Whittlsey. on returning to the United States, said that he said it. But he didn't. And thus it is again demonstrated that someone is always taking the joy out of life. Whlttlesy commanded the so-called | Host battalion" When his men were surrounded, the German commander sent him word to surrender. It was reported that Whittlesy replied, Go to he'll Lieut. Arthur F. McKeogh, in an ad- dress to the United Service club, declared that the colonel made no answer to the German demands-that, in effect, he told the Germans to go to hell, but actually he made no reply.
 Said the lieutenant: When the bat talion was lost l was detailed with 30 men to find it. This I eventually did was there when the Germans sent a message by one of Whittlesy's men who had been captured. Whittlesy was afraid that the Germans might think a white panel used in signalling our aeroplanes was flag of white. He moved the panel This was enough to impress the Germans with the fact that we hadn't come 5000 miles for the purpose of surrendering. Of course, the colonel didn't say Go to he'll. Had he done so, the Germans would have been impressed with an idea that our condition was deperate." The lieutenant in his speech in Wash ington produced the letter addressed by the German commander to Colonel Whit tlesy. That letter follows:
 "October 5, 1918. To the Commanding Officer 30Sth h.
 fantry, Seventy-seventh American Di- vision:
 Sir: The bearer of this present has been taken prisoner by us He refused to give the German intelligence officer any answer to questions, and is quite an honorable fellow, doing honor to his fatherland in the strictest sense of the word
 He has been charged against his will, believing he is doing wrong to his coun- try, to carry forward this present letter to the officer in charge of the First bat talon of the Seventy-seventh division with the purpose to recommend this com mander to surrender with his forces, as 1t would be quite useless to resist any more in view of the present situation
 The suffering of your wounded men can be heard in the German lines, and we are appealing to your human senti- ments. white flag shown by one of your men will tell us that you agree with these conditions.
 Please treat the bearer as an honora. ble man. He is quite soldier. We envy you.

The attendance at the meetings of the Spanish American club improves every week. and since it's reorganiza- tion, there has been renewed inter est on the part of the old members and steady enlistment of new ones.
 At Thursdays meeting Dr. Cornyn will speak on conversational Spanish. and show by precept and example how a speaking knowledge of the language is best acquired. MT. Justo will con- tinue his reading of selections from Don Quixote, and those wishing 10 hear Spanish as it is spoken with the true Castillian accent and infection should not miss these readings by MT. Justo, a native Spaniard and teach CT of Spanish. MT. Storer Mir McLaren n and Professor Reams will also make short readings. it being the prevailing opinion that by listening to the read ing of good selections the ear is not only trained to understand the cpunds, but ones vocabulary is greatly enrich ed thereby
 The meetings of the club are held in the rooms of the Civic association cv- cry Thursday evening at o'clock and the public is invited.
