DiUiSiOn PIT. A. Held
Meeting For Fathers

Fathers Night at Division
Street School on Tuesday eve
ming was convincing proof that
fathers enjoy coming to school
occasionally. The splendid turn
out of parents was entertained by
a program under direction of
Mrs. Dopp and the music depart
ment.
The orchestra presented three
numbers. Then the smartly uni
formed Rhythm Band, under the
dictatorship Of Jack Larsen, per-
formed for the fathers and moth
eTs. The sixth grade chorus sang
two numbers, demonstrating its
ability to do two-part singing. A
girls sextette sang a clever ar
rangement of nursery rhymes,
called Mother Goose on Pa
rade'.
A most enjoyable feature of
the evening was the appearance
of Mr.. and Mrs. George Mills
White, as guest artists. They
gave a delightful rendition of
two German folk songs in duet
form. They graciously respond
ed to the plea for an encore with
a selection from the well-known
Operetta 'Maytime". Gus Ayala
accompanied Mr.. and Mrs. White
in a most acceptable manner.
Five members of the faculty
presented a skit featuring the
value to be received from attend
ing PIT. A. Institute at Gaines
vile, after which Edmond Curry
of the WPA Recreational Depart
ment led in a Community Sing.
Tom Curry, from the same de-
partment, then presented pan
tomine called "Spring-Time",
which evoked much amusement.
A short business meeting follow
ed the program after which de-
liciouS refreshments were served.
The unusually large attendance
resulted in eight rooms having
more thar one-third of the par
ents present. Mrs. Jones room
led with seventy-two percent of
the parents present. This was fol-
lowed by Mrs. Anna Roberts
room, having sixty-three per-
cent; Mrs. F. MullinaX', with six
ty percent; Miss M. Sands and
Mrs. RuSSelrs, each with fifty
percent. Miss Marjorie Roberts,
Miss Frances Cochran'S and Miss
Gladys Finders rooms showed
an attendance of one-third of the
parents present.

The management of the Ha-

contributing the use of the
premises, which are admirably
suited to presentation of a show
of this nature. Artists belonging
to the society, have done a num-
Der of ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS and

Among those who have written

direction of and acting in the
show are Johnny Putnam, Cyril

To a certain degree, the forth
coming show is an endeaVor to
uncover such native talent as
may be drawn upon in the
future to provide novel and
worthwhile entertainment in
this city. The "Conch Fo1lies"
may be a forerunner of many

'Conch Follies' To Be Presented
Saturday By Key West Artists

"Conch Follies" is the name
given to the show to be presented
Saturday night at the Habana-
Madrid Club by the Key West
Society of Artists. The receipts
will be ear-marked for the pur-
pose of promoting this city as an
ideal working place for artists
from all over the country, and
for helping purchase equipment
for the children's Fairgrounds.
The artists society has gen.
orally approved the creation of a
fund to carry out a suggestion
made last month by Edward
Bruce, that an effort be made
to provide adequate studio facili-
ties and living quarters for
artists who have won COMPETE
tons for mural paintings and
other art works to be placed in
public buildings throughout the
country. Mr.. Bruce informed
the society that some SUI or 4UU
noted artists are more or less
continuously at work on such
projects and that many of them
would be delighted to come to
Key West to execute commits
sions if suitable quarters were
available.
Since the Conch Follies is MAX
ing use of several of the acts
prepared under the direction of
Mrs. Eva Warner, part of the
money taken in will be devoted
to helping out the children's
Fairgrounds equipment fund.

Agents Get Many Convictions
All activities of the Bureau
dovetail with one another, but
intimately concerned with each
phase of the wildlife-conserva-
ton program are the sc game
management agents scattered
throughout the United States.
These acknowledgements officers
not only apprehend the hunter
who violates game-laws, but the
poacher on refugees, the illicit fur
dealer, and the crooked importer
of wild animals, to name a few.
In 1889, in cooperation with
state Wardens, the Survey agents
supplemented evidence or them
selves furnished all the evidence
in 1850 cases of game-law viola
tions prosecuted in state and fed
eral courts. They obtained 2,444
convictions.
THAT shows the Survey and
state agents are on their toes,
doesn't it," queried Mr.. Greene.

to this conservation progphm by
these agencies.
Farmers Benefit
More than $2,500,000 was spent
last year in predatory animal and
rodent control work. More than
half this amount came from state,
county and private organizations,
according to recent reports.
There has been some misunder-
standing of this phase of the Sur
vey program, the Survey official
said. "Our control program is
opposed to any attempts to ex-
terminate any species. 1t is de-
signed merely to control various
species harmful to other Wildlife
or to livestock in certain areas.
Studies by the Biological Sur
vey, Mr.. Greene explained fur
Their, have led to the development
of much improved control meth
DDS that are specific for the crea-
lures doing damage. Such prac-
tees are not only more efficient
and economical, but of equal i'm
portance to the Biological Sur
vey, Mr.. Greene pointed out.
They have reduced the destruc-
ton of beneficial and harmless
forms as compared with crude
methods previously used by land
owners. Former methods in COM
mon use often resulted in indis-
criminate wildlife destruction in
efforts to destroy the harmful
forms, and substitution of the
Biological Surveys recommend
ed practices has also thus been
a wildlife conservation measure.
In rodent-control operations,
which are conducted on the ba-
sis of scientific studies, badly in
tested areas are treated to reduce
infestations on agricultural lands
and livestock grazing areas.
Rodent control activities also
include the destruction of rats. In
1899 the Survey conducted coop
erative campaigns to eliminate
