The wolf bounty law which has been in effect since 1917 will be su- perceded on July 1 by a new law enacted by the 1929 legislature After that date payment of boun- ties will be made in accordance with the provisions of the new law, regardless of the time when the animals were taken.

Truth ard
Penalties"
BY Edward LOngstreIh and
Leonard Il. HolIon.

N0 play the game called
Truth and Penalties" an
inquisitor Is chosen by com
mon consent. He asks each one
of the assembled throng a reason
able though perhaps personal
question. The person asked has
the choice Of either answering
the question truthfully, or of put
ting a chip in the kitty" "a
kitty may be any handy receptacle
such as an empty bowl OF ash
tray). Each player is given there
after the opportunity Of being
"inquisitor" in turn if the play
ers are seated in a circle, or by
any other plan agreed upon be-
forehand. The question asked
must be one to which the person
could be expected to know the
answer.
The 'inquisitor'' also acts as
banker. If the player Is asked
a question and answers truth.
fully. he takes a chip from the
kitty" The "inquisitor" must
supply the kitty" with that chip.
If the player refuses to answer
the question truthfully, he puts a
chip into the kitty" which il
taken by the "inquisitor."
II the questions are cleverly
put-and this method of penalty
promotes good questioning-it
may be exceedingly difficult TO
avoid answering them by impli-
cation even by putting a penalty
into the kitty" The answer in
all cases must be given as Eyes"
or "No." For example: II n OF
the gentleman asks a lady, "Have
you at last become averse to pet
ting?" what Is the young lady 10
do? Even books on etiquette will
be of little help at such a time.
If she answers truthfully, yes"
it may spoil her entire weekend.
If she silently puts a penalty into
the "kitty'' she becomes a 'lady
with a past"

my Dear Mr.. Hearst:
~ was very much interested in

tiary giving his views on the mar

az the dav folding little packets of

fackling this evil the wrong way.
The true remedy is prevention.
a Check on Manufacture
..stop the manufacturing by these
roId-bloOded chemical houses. What
does the public know about the thou
sands of tons OF narcotics. these
houses produce each year? Most all
narcotics are transported to Europe

In the narcotic peddling game.
