PROFESSIONAL HUNTERS
ARE EMPLOYED BY U. S.
(By Capital News Seryice.)

by Capital News Service.)
Washington,t Nov. 20.-"Few peo-
pie know that Uncle Sam employs
professional hunters for the destruc-
ton of predatory animals, but the
stockmen of Wyoming and other
western cattle raising states are very
familiar with the work of these men,
said Walter Willis, of Cheyenne.
"These hunters run down and kill
wolves, bear and other animals which
destroy stock, and also aid in the
fight against smaller animals that
destroy crops.
"One of the most notable exploits
of recent months was the trapping
of a big silver tip grizzly bear by
Hunter Rowley, working for Chas.
j. Bayer, predatory animal inspector
of the biological survey at Lander,
.Wyo.~ This grizzly had record that
caused the stockmen of that section
to offer a reward of 500 for the
death of the big silver tip. Private
hunters were on the trail as we'll as
Hunter Rowley, and the bear was
finally caught in a steel trap, at
tached to a 24-foot log five inches in
diameter. Mr.. Rowley found fifteen
head of and year old cattle dead
along the route. The cattle had been
killed by the bear. Wolves are killed
by putting out poison and by traps,
and rabbits and other pests are killed
by poison, traps and rabbit drives,
in which the whole countryside takes
part."'

MANY MASONIC LODGES
COMMEMORATE WASHINGTON
(By CAPITAL News Service,


Neutrality-suspicious. 2O.-Of inter-
est to fraternal circles throughout the
country was the observance by Ma
sonic lodges generally of special
services in commemoration of the
Masonic birthday, November of
George Washington, the first celebra-
ton of the kind ever held. 1t is
planned to make this ceremonial an
annual affair. In view of the fact
George Washington was made a
Mason in the lodge at Fredericks-
burg, Va, in 1852, the movement for
the observance of his Masonic birth
day was started by that lodge, it was
taken up by the grand lodge of Vir-
ginia, and it spread to all English
speaking countries. Especial feat
ures characterized the exercises con-
Quoted by the New York grand lodge,
and the lodge at Fredericksburg.
Of further interest in this connec-
ton is the fact a meeting will be
held February 20 and %, next, at
Alexandria, Va, of the George WASH
ington National Memorial association,
this being the annual meeting. The
work of this association is to bring
about the erection of memorial to
George Washington, the Mason who,
according to high Masonic officers, is
the only president of the United
States in history who was serving as
master of his lodge while occupying
the executive office.

CZECH ARE QUICK TO
TAKE UP U. S. GAMES

The Czechs in this country are
quick to adapt themselves to Ameri-
can ways. especially in regard to ath-
letics. Two husky young representa-
tives of that nationality, John Puce-
lik and Ernest Hubka, provided most
of the thrills of the Election Day
football game at the Polo Grounds in
New York city between the elevens
Of Rutgers college and the Univer-
sity of Nebraska. The "corn-husk-
err team of the latter institution won
by a score of % to 0, and to Pucelik
and Hubka may be given the major
share of credit for the victory.
Every year for, the last decade,
there have been from one to three
times during this period the team
has been captained by a Czech. In
the same connection it is interesting
to note that another Czech, Hugh
Bezdek, is coach of the Penn State
college football team.
