MOLINE ALDERMAN
NOT SUCH A GREAT
HUNTER AFTER ALL
Especial Moline servtcel

topSCiA MOune SeFV1cc.I
This story is intended for hunters
who are inclined to exaggerate.
When you are asked how many
rabbits or ducks or quail you
brought down. tell the truth, and
don't fib about the time Of day
when you did your shooting. :
Again, stick to the truth, or you
might find yourself in the same
embarrassing position as did AL
derman Charles Elmer of Moline
Charles announced that he had
killed 40 rabbits while hunting
with Patrolman Axel Johnson and
two friends about 10 days ago.
Anybody who knows Charles
knows that he couldn't bag 40 rab-
bits in as many years, but the re-
porter quoted him correctly in the
story concerning the big hunt
Yesterday q stranger appeared at
the Moline police station and in
quired for Charles Elmer. 1t was
the game warden.
He had a letter from the Spring
field office, also a newspaper clip
ping relating that Charles had
shot 40 rabbits in one day Charles
had some explaining to do, and he
told the truth to the warden. And
that's that.
Another boner pulled by Moliu-
er was in writing to the sports de-
partment of the Chicago Tribune
that he had shot his limit of ducks
on Rock river before sunrise.
1t is unlawful to kill more than
Is rabbits in a day, and it is I'M
lawful TO kill ducks before sunrise
or after sunset.
