The Charlotte Observer carries the
following news item in recent issue;
Salisbury, Nov. 6.-Ffrst Methodist
church has taken forward step by
the introduction of vocal lessons for
all the children of the church free o.
cost to the children. For sometime
this plan has been undcr considera-
ton by officials of the church, and ii
is made possible now by the accep-
tance of the position of director by
]. Francis Griffith, a member of tho
church, who has recently taken
special course in class instruction in
vocal music. Last year Mr.. Griffi'
was director of music in the Univer-
sity Of Alabama.
Wouldn't this be an excellent work
for the ladies organizations in our
churches? The question OF getting
good singers has always been a weigh
ty problem. The ladies could put
this across" by employing a regular
teacher to serve all denominations
in town, by teaching classes at the
different churches on different days.

The resignation of Senator Christen-
sen Of Beaufort was,' in our opinion.
the move Of a politician rather than
a statesman. While he may not have
fish to fry" himself, he knew that
there were men in the Senate who did
have and could not afford to have
their chances of votes jepordized. Sc
he chose this dramatic way of accus-
ing the Senate of surrendering to
business to the detriment of the farm
ing interests. AS a matter of fac
the farmer is no more burdened with
taxes in S. C. than the business man,
as since the inauguration Of the S. c.
Tax Commission the farmer is about
the only class whose taxes have not
been raised numerically. There is
a good part of the business mans so
called Intangible" property now on
the tax books and none of the far
mer's.
Business has been a big sufferer
in past two years Of reconstruction
and we believe the Senate was per-
fectly right in hesitating about shift
ing any of the tax burden from tho
farmer to the business man at this
time.
Senator Christensen is pulling the
same old wool hat stuff at a timf
when it is unfortunate.

inspector from Cheyenne, Wyo.. will
arrive in Cody next Monday to go af-
ter the coyotes that are reported to
be killing the deer in the North Fork
country and elsewhere in this sec

The prompt appearance of the in
spector upon receipt of a letter from

b. c. Rumsey who was in Cody
from Biackwater Camp on Saturday
states that the reports of the killing
of deer on the North Fork by coyotes
this winter is not exaggerated. ne
says that the hunters and trappers
working under the U. s. Biological
Survey who did such good work up
there last season, are again oauiy
needed.
Local trappers on the South ork
have caught 10 coyotes this winter
8 10 far,
1t seems as IL all the coyotes In the
country have migrated to the game
preserves where the elk and dee
are congregated and hunting Is easy.
In speaking on this subject recent
ly. Ned Frost was OF the opinion tina
the government trappers hunters
could do better work in summer than
winter. i,
BY being allowed to kill a Few Elk

the meat was hot. they could account
for a great many predatory mi

than the year previous. Why, then,
did the elk starve this winter and pull
through in such good condition the
year before? The Forest Service
made no a~ppreciable change in the
number OF stock grazed on game pre-
serves in this vicinity in the last ten
years. The snowfall during the win
ter of 1920-21 was light but during
1929 the fall was more than nor.
NAL. The cause OF the present game
situation is. therefore, not due to too
many stock, but too much snow.
Would that the Forest Service could
control the snowfall on the elk winter
range.
Year Of ordinary or normal snow
fall have proven that the present
games preserves within the Shoshone
Forest are entirely adequate to take
care of the game in excellent shape
when the snowfall is not above nor
NAL. When the snowfall in the hills
is above normal, the further restrict
mig ar even totally prohibiting graz
ing of domestic stock on game pre-
serves would not relieve the situation,
because the abundance of feed left
would be showed under. as is the
case this ear.
Years ago. during hard winters, be.
fore the country was so sthickly set
tied, the game found abundant feed
not within tibet present Shoshone
Forest but in the open range country
in the vicinity of the reservoir, Cody
and Mccullough Peaks. This area is
now partially fenced and the remain
der is closely eaten off by sheep and
cattle grazed during the entire year
without restriction. Some such SINH
lar area is now needed to take care of
the game during year of abnormal
SHOWS, but such area is impossible
within the Shoshone Forest because
OF topography and high elevations
The Forest Service has recommended,
the ttate has set aside and the the
Service has prohibited the use by do
nestle stock of the very best game
winter range within the Forest. Such
an are is also impossible outside the
forest because of settlement and be-
cause of the Unrestricted cattle and
sheep grazing. The game is amply
taken care of during ordinary winters
on the present preserves and the only
solution of the situation is to feed
hay during hard winters. II this is
not. done the elk and deer in this vi
cinity will continue to dwindle in
numbers and disappear.
The Forest Service has done and
will continue to do all in its power to
help preserve the game. Numerous
letters and reports are IN file, prov

He was tried before Judge Brown

jury brought in a verdict of not gull
