Veterans Seek Passage Of
Bonus Bill By March 4'h

Washington, Dec. 14.-The Ameri-
can Legion today served notice upon
that it will fight for the en-
actment of the soldier bonus bill be-
fore the end of the special session on
March 4 next.
Although congress faces one OF the
worst legislative jams in recent years
Alvin Owsley, commander of the Lee
gion, in conference here with past
commanders and chairman of the LIE
gion committee has drawn up a leg
i~slative program which the organfza-
ton will seek to have enacted during
the short session.
Legislation for the relief of disabled
veterans was declared to be of first
and supreme importance" n is plac-
ed ahead of the bonus in the Legion's
program.
Other legislation on the Legion's
short session program includes:
The Bursum bill providing for the
retirement of 1000 emergency army
officers, who were disabled in the
world war.
Suspension of all immigration for
two years.
Passage Of the ship subsidy.
Action to secure proper civil SER
vice legislation to protect the interests
of veterans.
Enactment of Muscle Shoals legis-
lation. No particular bill was recon-
mended.

Hunting And Trapping Laws
viii! Face New Legislature

Pierre. Dec. 19.-Among the ques-
tons which are being urged for ac-
ton at the coming legislative session
are changes in regard to game laws
including trapping. The game organ
ization of the state wants the game
law changed to provide for an annual
hunting and fishing license combined
at a cost of one dollar, to take the
place of the present hunting license
alone. The Black Hills wants the
license removed so far as nonresident
fishermen are concerned, That sec
ton attracts tourists from all Owe
the United States and many of them
like to fish the trout streams in the
vicinity of the locations where they
camp, but to do so they must take out
a nonresident fishing license, a fact
of which many of them are not aware,
and Tor the benefit cf the tourist
travel that section wants the license
eliminated, and would naturally OPP
pose the proposed combined license.
IN the trapping line the principal
point of contention appears to be the
skunk, as poultry owners claim that
these animals raid their hen coops,
and the law prohibits killing them
except in certain seasons, which the
hen owner is bound to respect or
take the consequences, while the
skunk keeps open season he year
round.
Another plan, that of appropriat-
ing state funds to employ profession
al trappers to work with the trappers
of the government biological depart
ment in the destruction of predatory
animals, is being asked by the western
counties, while the eastern papers OF
the state are declaring themselves
against any such expenditure of pub
lie funds

GODS OPPORTUNITY

Mans extremity is Gods oppor-
tunity."
The world conditions at the time of
the advent of Christ we're both the
least and most favorable. The pagan
religions had failed to meet the needs
OF the most earnest men, but II did
not eve profess to touch the needs
of the masses. ~Iniquity had about
touched bottom and no remedy SEEM
ed to be present to heal the open sore
of sin. 1t is beyond the unaided i'm
agination to form a picture Of domes-
tic relations. Writing at this time
Seneca. the tutor of Nero, said:
Crimes and iniquity abound In all
things more wickedness is
committed than law can reach .
The passion for sin increases daily;
daily there is more shameIessness.
Respect for the pure and holy dimin-
ishes constantly. Sin stalks openly.
II stares into all eyes. Innocence is
not merely i%nfrequent, it is no more
There was no pure love for children,
and the family relations had dropped
to zero. The glory of a Spartan boy
was to be able to steal without de-
lection, and his highest use was for
war.
Slavery was at high water mark.
American slavery would look like IL
berty beside that of those times. No
ray of light, like that in Uncle Toms
Cabin, was present TO e slightly
tighten their condition. The great
proportion of slave population was a
constant menace. There were almost
sixty million slaves in the Roman En-
pire. A glimpse of their condition is
seen in ben Hur" where they are
chained to the oar bench. IL their
master was murdered and the guilty
one o discovered, his slaves might
be killed, and on one occasion at least,
four hundred were put to death. The
lower free classes were little better
than the slave class.
The poor feared the delay OF a corn
ship for it mean starvation, and the
rich gave banquets costing thousands
Of dollars. Large numbers of free
men had only a tunic to wear, ever
in winter, and the rich went to the
other extreme, one lady wearing q
betrothal gown costing two million
dollars. Obscene theatres, and the
bloody arena were the chief forms Of
popular amusement. Fair ladies wat
ched the flow Of blood and dying struf
gle of the defeated gladiator, will
glee. And let IL be remembered, boil
conditions and people were up II
standard.
In only on part of the Roman EN-
pire were there conditions differen
from these, and that was In the LAM
of Palestine. There the n true Co
was worshipped, and men lived live
Of punity. But formality was fas
closing the eyes of the leaders and !
became a case OF the blind leading tn

advent of Jesus the nations of tn
world were looking for a delivers
The Jews expected a warrior to d.
