Dept. Explains
New Amendments
To Trapping Law

The department Of inland fisheries
and game has received many in
uuiries within the past few days re-
lating to the resident hunting
licenses, many people being of the
that the Legislature made
a change in the law relating to the
% cent hunters and fishermen's reg
istration certificates. This is not the
case. No change was made in that
law by the last Legislature.
Doubtless many of the depart
ment's correspondents and visitors
haze confused the new trapping
license law with the rs cent hunters
and fishermens registration certifi-
Gates. In order that there may be a
better understanding Of this new law.
the department has issued the fol-
lowing statement:
On July 18th, an amendment to the
trapping laws will become effective.
This will require all persons, 16
years of age and over who desire to
hunt or trap fur bearing animals
(exxcept beaver, for which a $25
trapping license is requireO in any
of the organized townships of the
State to be equipped with IS trap
ping license. This law, as above
stated, does not apply to minors I'M
der 16 years Of age, and does not
apply to a bona fide resident and
members of his own family who are
hunting or trapping fur bearing ami
mails Except beaver), in accordance
with the laws of the State, on land
owned by him or on land leased by
him and on. which he is actually
domiciled, within the limits Of an
organized township, and which land
is used exclusively for agricultural
purposes.
Another amendment to the trap
ping law is, that permit of land
owner in organized townships is re-
quired now only when a person is
setting trap or traps on the cult
waited land of another.
The amended trapping law further
provides for a $40 license for all
hunters and trappers, which author

bearing animals, in accordance with
law. anywhere in the State. in terri
tory open to trapping. However, If
a person simply wishes to trap in
organized townships, the IS license
only is required. These licenses will
be issued personally by the depart
ment of inland fisheries and game,
but applications therefor will be
placed in the hands of wardens later
in the season so that persons who
wish to trap in accordance with the
new law may secure applications
without inconvenience.
OF course, the holder of one of
these trapping licenses must also be
equipped with the regular hunting
license. Csc license if a resident
citizen or alien resident who is en-
titled to a Csc license, and SIS
license If a nonresident or an alien
who comes under the SIS alien resi-
dent hunting license law.

turn shortly and then we shall know
more about our plans for the picture.
No member of the cast other than
Miss Bronson has been selected, and
we have not yet decided whether or
not we shall make the picture at the
Long Island studio. These are ques-
lions to be decided after Mr.. Brenon's
return"
Perhaps never before in the history
of the screen has a girl of seventeen
had honors heaped upon her as has
Betty Bronson. An unknown when
she applied for the role of Peter Pan,
she Is today better known all over the
world than many actresses with years
of experience. Less than three years
ago she made her first appearance in
Paramount picture called, anna
Ascends." She had bits in His
Childrens Children" and one or two
more before she and her family moved
to California.
When the discussion about who
should play Peter Pan first arose,
Betty decided that she wanted to play
the role. So, she took her courage in
both hands and one day walked into
the West Coast studio and asked to
have a test made. More to humor
her than anything else. the test was
taken. 1t was among the large num-
Der of tests that Herbert Brenon took
to England to show Barrie, a number
which included many famous screen
actresses Barrie's unerring judg-
ment selected her almost at once, and
the result proved his wisdom.
Her preferment has made no change
in Betty. Many girls of seventeen
would have had their heads turned by
the honors that were showered upon
her, but not Betty. She accepted it
all gratefully, little nervous and a
little surprised to find herself famous,
but her wise little head was not up
set the least bit.
And she will be the same as Gin
derella. She has the power to lose
herself in any role that appeals to
her, sshe has the ability. and she re-
spends marvelously to direction. AL
so she has that wistful, appealing
quality that is so necessary for the
successful portrayal of the leading
role in this second of Barrie's plays
which added so much to the stage
fame of Maude Adams. Those who
saw and enjoyed Peter Pan" may
rest assured that, with the coming of
the Christmas season, there is another
treat in store for them in "A Kiss For
Cinderella"

He has selected her for the leading

Brenon will produce for Paramount,
to be released during the Christmas
season.
The news came in a cablegram to
Jesse l.. Lasky, from Director Brenon,
who sailed for Europe recently to con-
suit with Barrie on the screen treat
ment and cast of the play. Barrie,
according to Mr.. Brenon, had not the
slightest hesitancy in entrusting the
leading role to Miss Bronson, saying
that he believed her better fitted to
portray it than any other actress in
pictures.
"She proved in Peter Pam that she
was able to live the role" said the
noted author, land what she has done

early scenes of Not So Long Ago.

that Betty Bronson was the ideal
choice for this role, but, under our
agreement with Barrie, he must be
consulted and his opinion taken on
all points.
while we have not denied that we
favored Miss Bronson for the role, we
have made no definite announcement
about 1t because we were waiting I'M

The cablegram sets all our doubts at
rest and settles the question.
willis Goldbeck, who adapted
Peter Pam for the screen, also did
the adaptation of "A Kiss For Cinder-
ella, and Mr.. Brenon took the script
with him when he sailed to submit it
to Barrie. He was so delighted with
Mr.. Goldbeck's treatment of the other
play that am sure the present work
pleased him. We felt that Peter
Pan was a credit to Paramount and
we are sure that with the approval
and cooperation of Barrie, his other
work will be produced by Mr.. Brenon

IMPROVEMENT IN
RURAL SCHOOLS IS
VERY NOTICEABLE

"The rural school Is rapidly COM

teachers, better buildings and better
equipment are beginning to tell in
scholarship and conduct" declared
Commissioner Augustus o. Thomas
OF the Maine department Of educa-
ton, Wednesday.
"When the time comes that coun-
try towns can pay the same price
for teachers, the schools of the coun-
try will have their advantages over
the city. Already some of our best
students are coming from small
schools in small communities. In
many places, the one-teacher school
with the large number of classes and
short recitation periods Is giving
way to the small centralized school
In rural towns. The two, three and
four teacher elementary school, with
the junior high school embracing the
two upper grammar grades and one
or two of regular high school grades,
are becoming popular.
"The small high school in Maine,
while it lacks many of the broaden
ing elements, like library work, are
beginning to produce good product.
