Recent prosecutions in Rutland city
court of summer vacationists from
other states at Lake Bomoseen on the
charge of having fished in Vermont
waters without obtaining fishing Ii
censes call to attention the desirable
ity of having the requirements of the
Vermont law regarding fishing licenses
as clearly understood as possible. IL
is not to be expected that all the peo-
pie who come into Vermont during a
short period of the year viii be con-
versant with the requirement that a
fishing license must be taken out by
those who engage in fishing; and many
of them are wholly unaware that there
are any restrictions on the pastime.
Therefore, il would be the courteous
thing to have warnings prominently
displayed in many places, chiefly, per-
haps, in the hotels and railroad sta
tions notifying all that the state law
requires a license before anyone en-
cages in fishing. Considerable trouble
and i'll feeling might be avoided were
such course to be pursued. Vermont
people desire to give their guests as
GOOD treatment as possible, and while
some of those guests may be well
aware of the laws requirements and
are willing to take a chance on not be
ing caught there are many Others igno-
rant of the law. The latter ought to

Mr. Chas. Barker,
Dear Sir
We have to inform you that your
resignation was finally accepted at
our meeting in May and we were
named a committee to inform you.
This action was deferred from time to
time because of reluctance to sever
our connection of many years of as
sOciatiOn. Aware of the fact that
you were the only charter member
having served for more than a quar-
ter of a century we feel that it is like
the removal of a top root. Your fel
low members knOw-as no one else
can-the valuable service you have
given. both as a member and treasur-
er. We have realized your intense
wise interest and have felt that you
were as much interested as though it
had been your private property. The
town owes you debt of gratitude for
your long and valuable service, and
your fellow members will miss you
from their council.
