WILL PROTECT
BIG MUDDY FISH
FROM DYNAMITE
Bill introduced in Legislature
to License Missouri River
Fishermen and Join Iowa in
Enforcing Game Laws.

Lincoln, Jan. 1o.-(Speciai.) LII
Supt. w. J. O'Brien of the state
fisheries has his way the Missouri
river will not be IN the future a
mo Mans" land between Iowa and
Nebraska where anyone may fish
without permit andein any manner
he chooses. O'Brien wants to have
this state exercise jurisdiction to the
middle of the river as Iowa is now
doing and in that way make the
fishermen come under the jurisdie-
ton of one state or the other.
A great deal OF dynamiting has
been donsin the Big Muddy .duFing
the last few months, Mr.. OlBrien re-
ports and the catches secured in this
manner had been sold at high prices.
Besides the wholesale killing Of fish
for the market, many too small TO be
sold have been killed by the dyna-
miters and a large number which
were killed were never recovered
from the river. The Nebraska law
as it now stands xempts the Mis-
souri, river from the. provisions Of
its game law. Formerly the Iowa
law was the same but q few years
ago the Iowa legislature made a
change.
Supt. O'Brien believes Nebraska
should meet Iowa half way in pro-
tecting the fish in the Missouri
against unscrupulos fishermen. He
recommends a graduated license
system, beginning with 81 for hoops
and small seines not exceeding 20 to
80 feet, ranging up to $40 for seines
from 100 to 1000 feet in length and
would Danish dynamiting altogether.
Representative Cole, chairman of
the house committee on fish and
game, will Introduce a billtembody-
ing these ideas.

War Has Proved that
Devotion to Sports
is Time Well Spent

Much was said before the war in
depreciation Of the young man who
devoted himself to athletics, remarks
the Louisville Courier ournal. His
early death was prophesied by the
easy-going slug ola fellow who took
his exercise with his right elbow
and his recreation at bar and cara
vansary. Whenever an athlete died
his muscular development was set
down as the cause Of his untimely
end.
1t has been made plain by the war
that the athletic youth is the prefer
able youth to fight the enemy. 1t
never was proved that he was less
able than others to fight life's bat
ties in the figurative sense of the
phrase, or that he died sooner than
the round-paunched, soft-armed,
flabby-legged man.
In the army and in the navy ath-
letic sports and games are encour-
aged, promoted, valued. Swimming,
tennis, boxing, rowing, foot ball, are
regarded as being worth more than
the time that is devoted to them.
Aviators who are supple and well
set up, as we'll as young and cour-
ageous, are the most promising can
didates. II has been found that the
Eight hands" of the man who has
ridden to hounds are as valuable in
manipulating an airplane as they
are in taking a spirited horse over
the hunting fields and over fences.
Physical training of every sort is a
good asset for the young man, and
how much more easily the candi-
date who is forty or beyond has fit
ted himself for military service if
he has kept up since. college days the
habit Of exercise and out-of-door
life.
