HUNTERS, ATTENTION!

Ernest N. Smith, Executive Vice
President of the American Automo-
bile Association, has called our at
tention to complaints coming from
A. A. A. members riding over Mary
land roads to the effect that hunters
are very careless in shooting near
travelled highways. Such action is
very unbecoming the hunting public
of Maryland and very serious acct
dents may occur from such practices.
Whether it be state highway or
a county highway, hunters should
not shoot across or in the vicinity of
any travelled roads. 1 am sure that
the majority of the hunters of Mary
land do not desire to cause any
casualties and would be grief-strick-
en- if their carelessness was the
cause of someone being injured and
we appeal to you at this time not 20
hunt or shoot near travelled high
ways at any time.

rangement, the responsibility for the

one. The money is spent locally by

for each locality to assume its due
share of relief and responsibility.
In a proclamation issued in the
interest of the Seal Sale campaign.
Governor Albert c. Richie said, i
am confident that the people Oh
Maryland wish to show their appre'
citation to the Maryland TubercG-
losis Association for it's splendid
record in public health matters, and
wish TO- assist it to continue serving
mankind. / request all citizens 70
respond literally to the annua,
Christmas Seal Sale and urge every
body to help in the fight against
tuberculosis by buying Christmas
Seals"
Also endorsing the Seal Sale, Doc
tor Robert H. Riley said. Zone of
the splendid things about the annual
Tuberculosis Christmas Seal Sale is
the opportunity it gives everyone of
us to have part in the fight against
that disease. The seals are only a
penny a piece so that even the chill
dren can help"
Endorsements were also received
from Doctor Huntington Williams,
Director of Baltimore City Health
Department; Doctor John Collinson,
Chief, Bureau of Vital Statistics of
the Maryland State Health Depart
ment; Doctor Walter L. Biering,
