It was before the day of. game wardens. and before the killing of young deer or does was prohibited, put was closed season; the open season begun October 20.
 The locality was the "flatwoods," section of country about 40 or 50 miles west of Selma. at that time there was large amount of tinfbered land that had never been touched by the saw mill operator. and If one did not know the forest it was easy to get lost, especially on a cloudy day.
 Our party consisted of five, three of us from Slema and We. were met by the other two who owned a farm with small clearing, and a tenant house in that locality. There was no railroad through that part of the state at that time. We travelled in wagon, taking nearly two days to reach the house occupied by the ten ant where we were to camp, and we reached the grounds on October 1s. We had no regular deer dog but found that We could employ darkey to go into the drive with a few pos sum and coon dogs that were owned by him; they would trail, and run a deer a short distance.
 The cool weather was early that fall, and on the morning of the twen- tieth there was very heavy white frost sort of young snow, the air was crisp, and the millions of crys- tals on the grass glstened in the sun light after old Sol made his appear-

J. s. NEEDS GREAT BRITAIN ID HELP
 ENFORCE DRY LAW
Prohibitionists Wish Treaty With Mother Country Pre- venting Shipment of
 Liquor into U. s.
By HUGH ". ROBERTS Washington Bureau. Tlse AKe-HernI
 BOO Davidson Ruild


 Washington, April 1.-(Special.)- The United States cannot enforce it's prohibition laws unless Great Britain comes to its assistance.
 Testimony to such effect was given by James E. Jones, assistant prohibi- tion commissioner, to the House com mittee on immigration.
 Jones was called to testify in favor of bill providing for the deporta- ton of aliens guilty of violating the prohibition laws. In course of his testimony he declared the necessity that Great Britain aid the United States in the enforcement of it's laws. He urged negotiations leading to an international agreement under the terms of which Great Britain would bind itself and it's possessions to smuggle no liquor into this country. To great lengths, it is obvious, the prohibition element would go to make prohibition laws effective. They are now advocating a bill to deport aliens. They are preparing to main tain a prohibition unit in Cuba. They are urging treaties with Great Brit ain. Senator Jones of Washington has introduced a resolution calling on the state department to proceed against Spain because Spain will not buy fish of Iceland when Iceland can not buy wine of Spain.

 The post adjutant has just mailed the following letter to 1000 legion naires in Birmingham. He frankly admits that he would have sent one to every ex-soldier. sailor and ma rine in this district if he had had the necessary postage:
 Hey Buddie:
 This is a circular letter. but it is intended for you personally. The Legion needs your assistance, nor ally, physically and financially. It cannot succeed unless you stand with 1t. Ii you are a member, attend the meetings and participate in the ac.iv- ities.

 "The Legion may not have ae- complished as many things as 1t should have; some things may have been done which do not meet with your approval. It may be your opln- ion that there has been too much politics in the organization" Or, it may be that you don't like it be- cause the Legion does not "get into politics and make itself felt" We have heard both complaints.
 You may want to know what you will get out of it. If any one of the above is your reason for not being a member. l will ask what have you done toward it's advancement? Have you attended the meetings regularly? Have you secured any new members? ? Have you contributed to the organ ization? If there are things which you believe should be done, you have the same right AS any other member, to start something.
