ELK FIRING LINE is
BY "A

The state fish and game COM
mission has closed the fireing
line near Gardiner where thous-
ands of elk are slaughtered an
nually as they leave Yellow
stone park for lower winter
feeding grounds, State Game
Warden James A. Weaver has
announced.
The commission has author
lied Weaver to open the firing
line, however, if enough elk are
not taken in the open area to
reduce the herd to winter range
size. Game officials decided to
close the firing line this year
so the elk will have a chance
to scatter into the open area
south of the park before being
shot.
Game officials desire to re-
duce the II, O00-head herd by
approximately 5000 this year so
there will be sufficient feed on
the winter ranges for the re-
naming elk.

The Low Down
On Hickory Grove

Old jokes or new jokes or any
kind of a joke, I like them. II
they are old enough, I have for
gotten them, and they are new
again. And anyway, nobody ever
got indigestion from a joke.
And my neighbor, he is kinda
comical at times, and I guess he
thinks maybe I am a good guy
to try his Jokes on, so he says,
10, did you hear about the fell
Ter who sold his 10 thousand
dollar dog; And I says, no.
Well, he says, this dog it
looked like 2 bits but the Teller
held his price at 10 thousand
but he didn't sell him. And then
one day he rushed home and he
said, I sold the dog. But when
he was pinned down he said it
was not exactly 10 thousand in
cash-it was a kind of a trade
he got 2 nice five thousand dol
lar cats.
So I says, were the cats sure
enough worth 5 thousand? and
our neighbor, he took a long
breath and he looked out the
window and far away and he
says, Joy I see now why some
of our elections turn out so
funny.

War clouds over Europe? Now
is the time, if ever for the famed
British diplomacy to avert .
crisis. Of course, if Hitler insists
on employing his present meta
DDS, there appears little chance
for immediate settlement. Per
hapS they should take a leaf
from F.D.R.'s book and make a
New Deal purge of the Europ-
can nations.
Taking up the New Deal purge
it seems that the political bat
ting average of the New Deal
has dropped a Thousand points.
Divers reports from various
parts of the nation bear out
the fact that the American peo-
pie still seem to have a voice
in the choice of their candid
ateS.
In a recent article in the
Denver Post, one William Book,
a farmer living near Yuma, Co..,
has realized $4,000 profit, on a
S2.55 investment in 1884. And
he still has So, 000 Worth of hogs
left. All of which leads us to be-
lieve that perhaps there still
remains in these United States,

A contradiction in cOnSidera-

ton man of 500, returned him a
nickel and told him to use it to
call the police, thereby saving
the station operator a long walk
to another telephone. The rob-
Der made a nice profit at that.
The question which Dewey
asked in his prosecution, which
caused Justice Pecora to call it
a miStrial, and which he said

seems to have uncovered an
other racket. At least the trial,

Sage dnd Soil
BY Mrs. Paul Schuller

Solitude-to enjoy it, one must
be good company for oneself
and how many of us are?
To the blue heron in mid
stream on a rifle, a high NOM
emf of solitude is perhaps the
satisfied feeling after a choice
morSel of food, or the song OF
the river.
A lone Indian horseman on
the knoll still feels the blood OF
his forefathers stir in his veins
as he watches the panorama OF
the changing valley of the Big
Horn. In his hour of solitude
he accepts the change with re-
serve.
There is the clearest pond
just above the Soap Creek ditch,
about midway. The only move
ment to be observed was that OF
a huge turtle as he parted the
CLASSY surface, waking it into
spreading ripples as he swan
from shore. His home is solitary
to say the least.
The moment of solitude for a
child is perhaps that one be-
tween waking and slumber, al
ter mother has been there. Then
there is that unseen, unfelt
touch of assurance. Blessed is
going to sleep in childhood.
A reality-An enormous bank
of Heavenly blue" morning glo-
ries rising above a bed of dOu-
BILE golden CLEAN naSturtiumS. 1t
is a lovely sight not to be denied
any person.
Some are prone to associate
old age and childishness, and
it is truly too bad.
AS we were about calling
Sunday we tagged that is the
children and II an old gentle
man about as he did his eve
ming chores.
First he threw sticks in the
creek and his dog and then ours
"etrived them. A thought that
5abled around in my mind was,
perhaps he had never gotten to
play with a dog as a child, and
then the right answer came.
He simply and wisely had never
FORGOTTEN how to play.
He then shaved soft cor off
the cob for his pet rooster.
There were two colts Just re-
covering from sleeping sickness.
He had changed the head packs
and these animals for many
DAYS and it made a glow come
into the heart to watch the
little rascals nuzzle up to him
to receive their share of his af-
lection.
Two fine mich COWS were
thankful for the armload of
green fodder he gave them.
He showed is his Clark Gard
ner collection. The sugar maple
and tamarisk were beautiful;
the rest, though small, were
thriving. He had carried water
from a we'll nearby that this
collection might grow.
A hen, we'll cooped more be-
cause of magpies than for any
other reason, boosted of five
babies that run a risk of being
nudists at the first snow fall.
This elderly gentleman cooks
for another gentleman: he cares
for a separator, and he lays a
beautiful patch.
Animated old age is a wond-
erful thing.

to advertising, Parker said that
while his background qualified him
to speak only from the newspapers
standpoint, he believed that the
same opportunities applied to other
media.
If increased emphasis on tim

greater range of subject matter
and more potent placing of the
