killing radius of a shot gun, he
steadies up for a straight away
flight to a distant point in the bog,
there to light, road to cover if ter
ritory is desirable. Even the sea-
soned hunter is possessed with 4
feeling of pride and satisfaction
when he grasses his jack. when a
double is scored on a windy after
noon a spirit Of absolute delight per-
meates his system and he glances
around to see If his shooting com
panion was noting the act. He at
once becomes in his own personal
opinion a "Jacksnipe Specialist
The recent treaty signed by
Great Britain and the United States,
virtually validating the federal mi
gratory game law. which prevents
the killing, during the mating sea-
son, of jacksnipes is absolutely right
and must be enforced to the letter.
While this act stops spring shoot
ing, il may be the means OF rescu-
ing the perishing, as the Wilson
snipe was very rapidly following the
passenger pigeon into the realm Of
extinction. They are indigenous to
all sections of the United States,
Canada, Great Britain, Scotland, In
dia, Burmah and Ceylon, in con-
junction with many other sections.
1t is well that the spring killing Of
jacksnipes has been stopped by fed
eral agreement with Canada, as
state laws seldom conform with each
other.
Question.-Is there much interest
in trapshooting abroad. What will
be the war effect on this line of
sport? JAMES MURTAUGH.
Lansing, Mich.
Answer-There was a marked
interest prior 10 the breaking out
OF war in Great Britain. Many
clubs had been organized and they
were making rapid progress toward
accuracy, having abandoned the
fallacious idea Of two shots at every
target, based upon the practice
necessary for their hedge shoot
ing" Shanghai, China. has three
active gun clubs, they shoot once a
week, and have made some passible
scores, about so percent being their
average. There is no question about
this line Of sport being stimulated
materially by past war results. II
was noticeable the accuracy in
shooting displayed by men who had
experience in wing shooting.

ENEMY DELEGATES
TAKE TINE LIMIT
OPINION PREVAILS IN PARIS
THAT GERMAN GOVERNMENT
WILL ACCEPT TERMS.
FOcH'S ARMIES ARE READY
Foe ENJOYS Are Expected to Present
vouminous Record of Objections
to and Acceptances of Clauses
of the Document.

Paris, May 21.-The German peace
plenipotentiaries at Versailles are to
make known to the delegates of the
Allied and associated powers on what
points of the peace treaty they
acquiesce and what points they object
to and desire modified.
Wednesday is the time limit for the
Germans to make known their views.
No extension has been granted The
Germans are expected to present a
voluminous record of objections and
of acceptances of the clauses of the
document.
Although German leaders have de-
clared the document unacceptable and
that it will not be signed without mod
itication, the opinion in Paris prevails
that after the representatives of the
Allied and associated governments
have considered the objections and
formulated their final reply, the Ger
mans will affix their signatures.
Marshal Foch is taking nothing for
granted as regards the probable action
of the Germans at Versailles. He has
made visit to the occupied area and
has informed the Council of Four Of
the militry preparations that have
been made contingent on the Germans
refusing to accept the terms. Like
wise. General Pershing is wideawake
to the possibilities of the situation.
A trip to London planned by him for
the present week has been indefinite
ly postponed and he will remain on
the Rhine until all is settled.
American financial experts are dis
GUESSING economic matters with the
Germans, particularly with regard to
Germany's ability to pay for foodstuffs
and the methods of payment.
The reply of the Council of Four to
the German note regarding repara-
tions will declare that it is impossible
to disassociate responsibility from rep
arations and also decline to admit
that the German people may disclaim
responsibility for the actions of the
former government.

STORE ADVERTISING TO
GET OUT OF BUSINESS

There is a store in Pittsburg spend
ing more money for advertising to get
out of business than it ever spent to
stay in business-and the store has
been established over thirty years.
says John E. Moffet, advertising man
ager Of the Pittsburg Leader.
THE clOsing-Out sale is crOwding the
store every day with customers eager to
part with coolies of real money, which
has caused the proprietor to wonder
why the only real success in the stores
history came after he had decided that
he was ready for membership in the an
Gent order of dOWn-and-OutS.
THE funny thing is the way the
value of advertising had to be chOked
down this merchants throat. 1t must
have left an awful bitter taste when it
was finally and violently kicked home
to him that he couldn't even quit sue
cessfully without advertising.
"The proprietor didn't know, the adj
vertising man CD didn't know and the
statesmen didn't know Collectively
they thought they knew.
Here was a nice store. Every man
connected with it agreed that it was
nice The store atmosphere was beau
tiful. The kind of people it hOnOred
as its patrons had to be handled with
spOtleSSly clean kid gloves and would
have been offended by advertising.
Yes, mOrtally offended.
= But. one by one. as the years rolled
by, and incidentally. as other stores in

farewell to old mother earth and quiet

finale, flowers and wreaths.
"Oh, what individual effort could
have accomplished Oh. what could
have happened had there been one man
to speak out i'll loud voice wave his
arms and put some pep into the insti-
tuition

things that are going to be when asso-
Citations and organizations rule the
rOOSt and individual thought and eff
fort are relegated to the ash can. But
we are not going to miss any meals or
