ASKS PROTECTION FOR GAME
Hawaiian Fish and Game Association
Asserts That Condition on the
Islands Are Bad.

The latest application received by
the American Game Protective associa-
ton for club membership comes from
Hawaii. The Hawaiian Fish and
Game association has been formed by
a handful of the sportsmen in the
territory who have realized that un-
less they take drastic steps the game
on the islands will soon be exter-
minated.
Bruce Cartwright. secretary of the
Hawaiian association. writes that for
merly the islands We're alive with
game, but due to poor law enforcement
and the lack of adequate protective
measures the condition is now serious.
The grenter part of the population
are Orlentals, and to teach them that
game must be protected will prove n
laborious task, he says.
The Chinese dove, MongOllan pleas
ant and California quail are the most
common upland game birds, although
formerly peacocks, turkeys and wild
chickens We're plentiful. Golden
i'lOyer are very numerous during
migration. Ducks and other shore
birds also visit the islands.
The game animals In Hawaii con
sist Of goats, sheep and deer. The
theory has been udvnnced-and found
the ear of the lawmakers on the is
lands-thnt deer are detrimental to
forests. 1t is asserted that they de
stroy forests by eating the protective
covering from the roots of the trees.

room at the Brown-P Palace, that bust
ness conditions will soon adjust them
selves, and that we are about to en-
ter period of marked prosperity
which will last for years. He went
fully into the foreign situation and ex-
planned the conditions across the ocean
from first hand and personal investi-
cations, and he saw no danger of n
collapse from that side.
If the public ct large could hear
more men like Mr.. Moody and fewer
wild-cyed theorists who come with all
sorts of alleged remedies for economic
ills, the country as a whole would be
far better off, and the people might
not be so ready to absorb and ap-
prove quack remedies which, in the
end, would injure-not aid.-Mountain

CHRISTMAS TREES WILL LAST
Little Danger That in Years to Come
the Children viii Be Do
prived Of Joy.

Don't join any gloom group that may
vention Of cruelty to Christmas trees.
advises a writer in the Kansas City
Star
The forests are there to be used. and
if, rs we utilize the trees, we make IL
possible by replanting for our children
aud our children's children to hav.
trees. there is no reason for not havin,
Christmas trees as well as all the lun-
ber we need.
That is the way the scientific for
ester, the man who grows trees like
the farmer grows wheat, looks at this
matter Of Christmas trees.
While there is still some regrettable
ruthless cutting of spruce and fir for
the Christmas tree market In northern
states, many Christmas trees are now II
by-product of the forests. There are
small trees in every properly managed
woodlot that must be sacrificed SO
that the others may have room to
grow. These make fine Christmas
trees.
Christmas trees are also being
raIsed In nurseries. Baby spruce and
fir trees are planted by man So that
the babies and children of man can
have Christmas trees in their nurs
cries. And Christmas tree is
usually between the ages of five and
ten years. just about the age Of the
child who enjoys Christmas most. In
the future years, 1t is expected that
nearly all OF our Christmas trees will
be raised by nurserymen from the
forests.

ERROR COMMITTED BY MANY
Grave Mistake to Leave susiness
Position In a General Cloud Of
Unpleasant Feeling.

The man or woman Of small am
bition and smaller achievement feels
that 1t is his privilege and pleasure
always to leave a position he is quit
ting" In a cloud of unpleasant feel
ing. So long as he remains In bis
position he puts up with unpleasant
ness, stiles his dislikes for the men
over him and does his best to grin
and bear things. When he realizes
that he can take his destiny In his
own hands, and ask to have his name
stricken OF the pay roll, he takes
Intense satisfaction in airing his pretu-
dices and showing every one In the
place just how he feels about things.
He undoes in a day all that he has
gained in the months or years that he
has worked there.
The man or woman with ambition
knows that the world of business is q
small place. Merely from selfish
point of view II Is essential to main
tain pleasant relations even with those
who, you feel. have treated you un-
Justly. II you have put up with their
Ill treatment while working for them
surely you ought to be more willing to
do so when you have the inner salts
faction Of knowing that you are going.
In fact, you can stretch a point and
forgive and forget old rancors. II may
be, you know, that in another shuttle
up you will be placed In position
where one Of the persons for whom
you have the most spite will be placed
in n position where his friendship will
mean a great denl to you. SO do the
well-bred thing. which is to stife your
own petty animosities and exercise
your self-control to the extent Of
leaving the old place with handshake

Business Prosperity in the Offing.

The Investment Bankers Association
of Denver is entitled to the thanks of
the people of this section for having
made possible the recent address in
Denver by John Moody, whose ability
as a financial statistician, and whose
training as an analysist, makes his
predictions of value.
Mr.. Moody came with no pessimistic
tone. He did not indulge in oratorical
expressions, or seek to sustain posi-
tion by making wild and indefinite
statements. On the contrary, he went
over the situation as any clcarheaded
and well informed man would do, and

hundred girls of Stephens College at
Columbia, Missouri, have organized a
College Women's Improvement Club

Mrs. Pennybacker, former president of
the National Federation, addressed the
club recently at the college.
The secretary of the club, Miss Lee,
has corresponded with some Of the
leading women of the country and has
received personal advice and sugges-
tions from persons of national repu-

attempted.
In addition to being secretary Of
this club, Miss Lee has distinguished
herself as a superior student and as
leader in the school life Of the col

see what historians Will see, that the
soviet government in Russia Is the
most colossal bluff the world ever saw.
1t has all the Impudence OF the mas
ter criminal. 1t mas all the crudlty
oil the thief's disordered mind. Every
criminal, however clever, is in some
vital way mentally deficient. The
Soviet adventurere required some sort
of slogan. They seized upon that worn
out and almost discarded fallacy of
Karl Marx, that labor creates every
thing. Their first experiment In the
conduct of production proved the fall
sity of the assumption. Up to date,
according to the best calculations, they
have blown out the administrative
brains of their country without which
production, with all its comforts and
securities for labor, becomes impos-
sible.
In fact, the Soviet intelligence did
not go beyond a crude dividing up of
what tangible wealth they could reach.
They did not know that at least 50
per cent Of what they envied and COW
eted was not in any form they could
divide. They could not divide up cred
it, after they had destroyed it. They
could not divide up a railroad they had
reduced to two streaks of rust. They
could not divide up an oil well they
had flooded or a water supply or a
sewer system they had destroyed with
the furious unintelligence of the ape.
They could loot the banks and the
private citizens and make n bandits
division, and a repetition Of this is the
one tangible proposal they make to
the representatives of powers gather
ed in Genoa.
In form, as proposed by one of the
Soviet representatives, it is a PROPOSE
ton that the rich nation possessing
the most gold-obviously the United
States-shall lend that gold to the poor
nations, on n population basis which
would give Russia the largest share.
Then, of course, Lenine and his friends
could divide up again. This is the
Soviet program. Its Punic faith has
been proved again and again. Lenine
and Trotzky are prepared to give any
promise which will look attractive.
They told the truth when they said
that they did not consider promises to
the hated capitalists as binding. They
have looted the Russian house and are
still in possession of the premises.
They cannot develop Russia's resources
but they think they can compel the
world to buy the bandits out.
Let us be thankful that we have in
the State Department man who will
not temporize with this evel thing. Let
us be thankful that we have Presi-
dent who will back him in an attitude
which is an example to statesmen who
have failed to grasp the moral obliqui-
ty of compounding a felony.-New
