 flve-year close season in New
 York State has only partly brought
 back the quail The fate of the heath
 hen on Marthas Vineyard IS trembling in the balance. Something else Is | necessary; close observation would
 seem to indicate that hand in hand
 with the protective law active warfare
 against the vermin that preys upon
 bird life must be carried on. Something has been done in the past and more must be done in the future along this line. Every sportsman can and should cooperate 50 that when he is af1eld for any purpose, he will be keenly alive to the necessity of actual constructive work i1 game and bird protection and seek opportunities to eliminate, ill a reasonable manner, the vermin that threatens.
 In this way, too, by arousing the in- terest of the community in the protec- tive law, we will spread abroad a knowledge of the law and its purpose | that in ancient days was achieved Dy l the tablets of stone.
 The American Game Protective As sociation is doing a great deal of good missionary work by hearty co-ouera- ton with game commissions. It is
 up to every individual sportsman tt do all that he can to assist in securin adequate protetection for our game l and a rigid enforcement of all laws without fear or favor.

THE GAME SITUATION

A game law is effective just so far as it has the strength of an awakened sentiment behind it and becomes in effective when it loses that backing;
 and just here is a great underlying policy that must, in the future, take a more prominent place in game pro tective work and must go hand in hand with formulated game laws. It is the constructive work of game pro- lection, says a writer in All Outdoors.
 Close seasons have failed in more than one instance, to bring back a species of game the supply of which has reached such depleted condition
