SHORT OPEN SEASON ON
HUNGARIAN PARTRDGES

The Whitman county game COM
mission, in meeting at ColfaX last
week, decided to maintain a closed
season on all game birds in Whit
man county this year except for a
three-weeks open season on Hungar-
ian cartridges in the fall. The dates
for the open season will be an
nounced later, but will correspond
with the open season on the birds
in Spokane county, probably early in
October. The bag limit will likely
be set at five birds in any one day
The cartridges, commonly known as
Huns" have multiplied rapidly dur
ing the past few years and it is be-
lieved that a short open season will
not reduce their numbers to any
great extent. The Hun" is wiley
game bird, perfectly able to take
care of itself and the hunter who
gets his limit of five birds in a sin
gle day will be a fortunate one.

ton reigned supreme. Frank Hen

culturist by winning the contest for
guessing closest to the number of

grounds free for play and apparatn.
Inc credit for this suggestions ho
longs to A. M. Doerner of the stota
College, who aided in the survey hv
drawing a possible plan for sucb
readjustment.
A plan was recommended for add.
ing to the level ground at the Main
building by grading and leyelinp
Thls could be done by cutting down
the hillside at the back of the school
and filling in the south side of the
grounds with the dirt so removed
A retaining wall of cement would
serve effectively to keep the hillside
from crumbling. 1t is estimated
that the play area could be doubled
by this plan.
Estimates of the kinds and
amount of apparatus needed for the
grounds were supplied by Miss Mary
that is essential for all-round physi-
cal education for women at the State
College.
These estimates included such ap-
paratus as swings, teeters, sand
bins, merry go-rounds, slides, jump
ing pits, balls and other apparatus
that is ESSENTIAL for all-round physi-
cal development
Many of these things could be pro-
vided at very little cost Much could
be done through the cooperation OF
the manual training department and
the Mothers club, and the results
would more than repay the time and
money.
Play is essential to the best de-
Velopment of children. It not only
improves their health, but in so do
ing enhances their chances for sue
cess in their school work
