CONSERVATION OF WILD LEE

The conservation of wild life risarof
much greater Importance than being
mere fad. Its value may be difficult to
to measure but they are none the less
real, and the recrea tiOnal and education
al advantages TO be gained from an abun-
dance of wild life IN general are inealcu-
liable. o1
Greater appreciation of wild life va
lues and recognition of the importance
of conserving beneficial species need
our special attention. The interest and
local aid of~people everywhere is veryaim-
portant as without community coopera-
ton the enforcement of game laws and
conservation of wild life becomes ex-
tremeIy difficult, if not impossible.
Sincere bird lovers should turn their
know ledge to good account and endeavor
to impress their friends with the truth
concerning bird life. C3ngenial groups
should find it highly entertaining to hold
friendly discussions about wild life.
A large minority among people often.

reaching consequences. 1t is almost

soon its attendant evils will Cbear down
upon us, and may become so serious as TO
necessitate consider able outlay OF capl-

Many forms of wild life have dlsap-
peared during recent years through lack
of acknowledge pertaining to their vel
fare and preser walton, and others are
now threate ned with extirpatioD. The
cause in most cases is directly due to
changes Drought about by man. espe'
ciaIy by the encroachment on their
haunts. The indiscriminate use OF guns
and traps and the destruction OF eggs
and young during the breeding season.
These are among the most important
factors that have harmful Influence
upon wild life.
Quite often the interest in wild life
is concerned with the propagation and
welfare Of game birds alone. Among
our game birds the Bobwhte is in need
of greater consideration. La size it COM

 HoIlywood.-With her venture of four years ago practically forgot ten, Evelyn Lave is back in Holly wood again-anxious to get start ed on "The Night Is Young," the film for which she came here from London.
 Evelyn (and that first half is pronounced like "eve," itself) was pretty disgusted with her previous appearance in a Hollywood film, "One Heavenly Night" In fact, she stated at the time that she never again would return to Hollywood. What persuaded her to change her mind, other than woman's usual prerogative, is unknown. However, the important fact is that she's here. And for one expect her to make a real hit.
 The English actress definitely has what the public wants. That was proven by the business done by "One Heavenly Night" in which she never had chance really to be good. And, being happy in her surroundings on this trip, she probably will give-and give.
 "I hope this picture will be, a knockout" Miss Lave told me. If 1t is, I probably shall stay here for more pictures, And I really should like to do that. want to make a couple of pictures in which can play character roles, parts which will require some real acting"
 Let's hope that this ash blond actress gets her wish as she will be a real asset to our film colony. One has only to meet her to know that. Exceptional beauty, strong personality, an excellent voice and acting ability aren't to be found all rolled up in one girl every day. $5,OOO Dragon
 When you see Garbo's new film, "The Painted Veil," take particular note of the gold dragon in one of the dance sequences. It is so dis tinctive that one of the Chinese tongs in San Francisco has offered the studio $5,000 for the use of it in a Chinese celebration to be held there shortly. Unappreciated
 And now we have Robert Mont gomery and Chester Morris, circus performers. The other night Bob and Chester took their wives to the circus, going "backstage" later to see some of the performers. Bob made the remark that he would love to work in a circus. All right" replied the manager. "Bc here at 1880 tomorrow night and you can ride in the parade"
 All four weN present. Bob and Chester were decked out in flowing robes and turbans and had big mustaches painted on their faces.
