HUNTERS! Be SURE Of AIM
BEFORE YOU PULL TRIGGER

Every year the hunting season
brings with it its spoils in the form
of human sacrifices. For the benefit
of gunners who are going after game
this fall the following list of don't
is given:
Don't take any chances. The func-
ton of a shotgun is to scatter shot,
but be very careful where you scat
ter it.
Don't blaze away in haste and don't
get excited. Many a shooter has filled
his favorite dog full of lead just be-
cause he was over anxious.
Don't point a gun at any person IN
jest. 1t is always the gun I'VE didn't
know was loaded that goes off and
does the damage. The only time to
point a gun is when you intend to
kill.
DOM take every rustic of a bush
or a bough TO be a sure indication of
game. Remember sometimes an in
quisitive person has a penchant for
being IN strange places.
Don't carry a loaded gun through
the street or in cars, trains, automo-
biles or any other kind of vehicle, or
leave 1t around farmhouses to nave
some child p~layfully blow a head
off.
Don't get excited and shoot with
out making sure your object Is game.
Don't shoot until you see the rabbit,
or whatever it may be, and then be
sure that he is clear of both man and
dog.
Don't drag a gun under a fence
with the muzzle pointed toward you.
Don't climb yer fences with your
gun or lea J. against a tree until
Won get over. Put it through the
fence and on the ground, business
end before.
Don't hunt with n one that you
know to be careless. Carelessness
with three and a quarter drains of
powder behind one and one-eightn
ounces of shot is inviting "sure
death"
DOM load your gun until you are
actually ready for business. At all
other times it should be empty. Keep
your finger off the trigger until o
are looking along the barrel ut you
game.
Don't use a cheap gun, as it is apt
to explode when a heavy charge Is
used.
Don't borrow a dog or gun or loan
either.
Don't rest on the muzzle OF your
gun.
Don't violate the game laws. II is
not only criminal, but sometimes
very costly.
Don't hog all the game. Leave
some for the ext fellow.
Don't rest the muzzle Of your gun
on the ground. A gun muzzle clog
ged with dirt or mud is a dangerous
proposition.

And followers of the diamond
pastime know that IL one swings
three times at the open air, one is

And IL one sasses an umpire one

CORRECT NAMES FOR
HOTEL DU POINT ROOMS
Given in Descriptive Illustrated
Booklet Just Issued by the
Management.

Manager Ernest S. Taite Of the Hotel
du Pont has just received from the print
eris hands. linii ed editionNof de-luxe
pamphlet, 1219x912 inches in sizei con-
sisting of SO pages and cover, giving de-
tailed description of the hotel as lately re-
modelled. with l6 illustrations in half-tone
Of the interior, and view Of the exterior,
which appears on, or rather through the
cover, by the device Of an oval cut-out.
A half-dozen pages are devoted to an
historical sketch of Wilmington as 1T WAS
and is.
Although opened in 1913 and then
thought ample to accommodate the travel
ing public, the Hotel du Pont soon was
proved TO be too small, and plans were
made for its enlargement. Owing to the
drawbacks OF war conditions, the project
ed additions were not completed until
October of 1919.
The new portion doubled the room
capacitv of the hotel and added besides
other features, notably the new ballroom
suite The present capacity IS 600 guests
and the enterprise IN its present form repre-
sents an expenditure of over 81, 600, 900.
The result is a hotel which is one of the
best appointed and most beautiful IN the
country, calling forth the admiring COM
ments Of travellers of wide experience and
giving Wilmington distinction which
makes il unique among cities of its size.
The correct naming of the new rooms
is. for the first time disclosed by the
description. given in the brochure. The
Gold Ball Room" suite includes, besides
the ,wo-story dancing salon. the adjoining
"Du Barry Room" on the second story
level, approached through reception
room and a staircase foyer, and having
smoking room. lavatory and checking
room accommodations on a lower floor.
scparate entrance on Eleventh street en-
ables this suite to be entirely shut off from
the rest of the hotel by two richly carved
doors and thus devoted to outside func-
tions whenever desired.
Connecting with the office lobby" IN
which is the hotel desk, fronted by an
ample lounge. is the Club Room" with
wood pancled walls and modelled ceiling.
The Green Room" is the proper desig
nation Of the dining room on the Eleventh
and Market streets corner, while the adj
joining lobby leading TO the Tenth street
corridor is known as the Palm Room.
The balcony fronting on this lobby and
also opening on the lounge lobby, is the
"Nezzanine.

typography, and worthy record of one of
