from Dec to Dec. IL, inclusive, no
matter what each individual hunter
may think of the outcome of his eX-
petition into the woods and fields,
there can be but one verdict on the
part of the public in general. That
verdict will be that the 1920 season
was successful. 1t was successful, not
perhaps in the number of deer slain,
but in the lack of any human fatal
tiles during the six days. Out of
thousands of men and women who
went out at some time during tie
week TO secure deer apiece not one
person was fatally injured by bullet
or otherwise. Indeed, but a single ac-
cident connected with deer hunting
was reported, that being in the case
of Bolton man who was shot in one
leg by another hunter. But the wound
ed hunter is already recovered stuff

hospital. Therein was the 1920 sea-
son successful Whether the result
was due to luck or better restraint

could not rule on other differences.

Deputy Attorney General

The law as published in the
American two weeks ago certain
~ reads different from this opin-
ion. 1t read that it would be
unlawful for any person to use
sleds on any public highways
measuring less than four feet
and six inches from center to
center Of runners after Jan, /.
1921. meaning second hand as
we'll as new sleds
However as the above opinion
has come from the Attorney
Generals office and it seems the
most feasible and the easiest one
to follow, it is perhaps best to
abide by that. 1t seems strange
that the Legislature can not pass
a little simple law like that and
have it wordcd SD that it has
but one meaning. The American
will endeavor to get more light
on the subject.

THE law referred to by you,
which goes into effect January
1st, 1921, prohibits, after Janu-.
airy /, 1921. the use upon the
public highways Of the state of
all newly purchased or Arst hand
sleighs, the runners Of which
measure less than four feet six
inches from center to center;
after said first day Of January
1921, the owner of sleigh which
was purchased from a dealer or
manufactured prior to January l.
1921, so as to be a second hand
and not a new or first hand sleigh
may lawfully be used upon the
highways of the state. though the
runners thereof are less than
four feet six inches from center
to center. So too. one owning
second hand sleigh, the runners
of which are less than four feet
six inches from center to center
may lawfully sell the same to
another, and purchaser may law
fully use the same upon the pub
lie highways Of the state after
the first day of January 1921.
The law does not prohibit the
use of old sleighs. the runners Of
which are less than four feet six
inches from center to center, the
purpose Of the act being to gra-
dually eliminate from use upon
the highways of the state
sleighs Of width less than four
feet six inches from center to

Then vision came to him and filled his mind
In place Of pine trees far and WIDE
He saw plowed fields every side
The vision left him with happy thought
He went to Askov and farm he bought
He built log cabin upon his land
