community. We feel that he
has been officious, yet not too
officious; that he has instructed
our youth in the value of Game
laws and conservation; and that
he has been a distinct asset to
this community in promulgat-
ing respect for the game laws,
and the value of game conser-
walton.
A motion was also made and
adopted, to amend the resolution
pertaining to coming, with the re-
quest that the crappie season be
closed on January LIST, of each year,
instead of February list, as it is
at present.
The members of the club decided
to again have a crow shoot, but
instead of competing with some out
side club, they will choose sides
from among the club roster. The
crow shoot will commence April LIST
and will continue to May 18th,
both dates inclusive. The president
was authorized to appoint two cap
tains to choose teams and make
other arrangements for the shoot.
The birds to be shot in this con-
test include, besides the crows,
hawks and horned owls, all to count
only one point. Both feet of each
bird will need be presented for the
tally. Every two eggs brought in
will also score one point. Other de-
tails of the hunt will be left to the
president. After the final count the
losers will entertain the winners at
a dinner, and social hour. The de-
tails of this feature are to be de-
cided at later meeting.

DR.. Julian Dubois, acting on
special committee. relative to the
moving of the boat houses at the
park, stated that all that remain
ed to accomplish the identifying of
the bay, would be the action of the
City Council in finding a place for
them to locate. He stated further
that a site for the boat houses
could be had across the lake near
the bridge, and that action on this
question would be taken up before
long, or at least, while the lake
was frozen over, so that the houses
could be moved across without
great expense.
B. f. Dubois presented resolu-
ton for the adoption of the club,
pertaining to the boiler inspection
law, in which, he asked that efforts
be made by our representative and
senator, to have low pressure boil
ers excluded from the enactment,
so that it would not be necessary
to take out firemen's license to
operate plants of this nature. The
club adopted the resolution. Ac-
cording to information, there is no
danger in operating a low pressure
boiler and that forcing owners of

Ben Benning,
President

After careful consideration it was
decided that the local club adopt
the resolution as read, and that cop
les of such be sent to our respective
senator and representative, to thu
State Game and Fish Department
and to the surrounding conservation
and sportsman clubs.
Another resolution adopted per
tains to the coming law, whereby
crappies, bass and sunfish may no
be caught in the northern zone I'm
til June 21st. The zone line a
present is near st. Cloud. TIL,
southern zone opens May 20. TIL,
contention is that the line has beer
drawn too far south, and that, a.
is the case in Sank Lake, or othe,
warm water lakes, the fish are no
as good and have already complet
ed spawning long before that date
The recommendation of the loca
club is to have the line set to tn
north some where in Wadena coun
ty. The following is the resolu
ton:
F. BE 1t Resolved: That while
believing that the proper con-
servation of nest building fishes
!. can be best accomplished
through the widespread and
proper location of spawning
beds and that so-called coming
is make-Shift means of con-
servation, still if coming must
be had, then the present divis-
ion of zones is improper in that
in the great majority of years
such fish have finished spawn
ing before May 10Th for a con-
siderable distance North of
the present Southern zone and
that when the present season
opens in such territory, June
21st, the water has become
warm and fish, such as sun
fish and crappies, have lost
quality and the people in such
territory are unable to obtain
such fish when at their best.
Now Therefore, That Section
1854 of the General Statutes
of Minnesota for 1928 and all
Acts connected Herewith be
amended so that the Southern
zone include all that part of
Minnesota lying south of a line
drawn East and West through
the North line Of Township 1876
in Wadena County.
Also, that the Secretary of
this organization send certified
copies of this Resolution to
Honorable w. D. Stewart,
Commissioner of Game and
Fish of Minnesota, and to the
State Senator and Congressman
for this District"
Game Warden Fred Mossman wa.
elected to represent the local or
ganization at meeting of the Min
nesota Game and Protective
League, which was held in st. Paul
Jan. 81, 1888. He was given au
thority to act according to his best
judgment on all questions. One o.
the main subjects to be brought uI
at the meeting was to find ways anc
means to prevent the diversion OF
funds from the Game and Fish De
partment to the general fund. 9th.
er problems of vital interest to al
sportsmen of the state also were
features Of that meeting.
The following resolution was
then introduced and adopted:

approving the work of Game

for bids and had received three of
them, but upon presentation to the
postoffice department he was in
formed that owing to the economy
program adopted by that body, it
would be impossible to grant the
request at this time.
This star route as planned would
connect with a similar route to
Long Prairie, and would include all
the villages and cities from here to
st. Cloud. Owing to the present
hampered mail system to the cities
star mail route is really neces-
sity, and according to the president
of the club, should be urged by ev.
cry member.
The report from the Great North
ern Ry. Co. to Secretary John Han
sen, relative to the changing of the
layover on the "K" line, from Sank
Center to Bemidji, was not encour-
aging. This change would necessi-
tate that five families, who at pres.
ent reside in Sank Centre, would
have to move to Bemidji. Mr. Han
sen stated however, that he was still
in communication with officials of
the company and expected to again
hear from them in a short time.
Secretary Hansen then read the
annual report, which is herewith
published in full. It will be seen
from the report that the club has
had an active and successful year,
the total receipts being $720,35; $40
being collected as membership dues.
During the year 312 meetings were
held in the club rooms, proving
that it is most popular place and
a great asset to the city's social
and business life. The following is
