The Oldest Code

Hammurabi, the king of Babylon,
formulated his code about 22OO B.
c., much earlier than the laws of
Manu- or of Moses. The pillar con-
tanning the code was unearthed in
1902 in the acropoliS mound at Susa.
It contained about 5000 lines of
writing in 40 columns, some five of
which were practically erased. The
code was divided into about $50
clauses and opens with the words:
Law and justice l established in
the land. l made happy the hu-
man race in those days" Exact
laws were laid down governing la
Dor, wages, witchcraft, sanctity of
oath, requirement for written evil
dence, public duties of officials
moral laws which were exceeding
ly strict, protection of legal and per
sonal rights of women. laws of d.
vorce and alimony and practically
every human activity.

One Of the first signs that fall s
hunting season is far less than a
30-30 shot away appeared a couple
of weeks ago in the announcement
that Canada has decided to permit
Americans to take their guns across
the border. Prior to establishing
the rigid permit system now in ef-
feet, the United States nimrod was
forbidden, because Of the war. to
have a gun in his possession north
of the line. Lured by promising
game trails, many American hunt
ers along the northern tier of
States are expected to stalk game,
as usual, in Canada this winter But
perhaps this year, unless they de-
eide the woods of the United States
are promising enough, they will
turn their attention to the game
land that sportsmen Of the South
west enjoy-MeXico.
Within recent years. Mexico has
frightened its regulations somewhat
governing non resident hunting, set
ting up these requirements:
Nonresident must be member
of some hunt club officially recog-
nized by the Depto. Forestal y de
GAIA Y Pesca. If not a member, a
bond of 500 pesos is required by the
Depto. de Hacienda.
Hunting permit must be obtained
from Depto. Forestal y de GAIA y

month and to one state, costs so

Parks are being laid out. Beaches
are being graded. Channels are
being marked and docks, slips and
yacht clubs built There are cabins
for vacationistS and camps where
groups of any size may assemble.
There are open-air amphitheaters.
A six-mile sheltered Straight-away
race course has been laid out on
Chickamauga Lake. Two hatcher
les are providing millions of game
fish and the lakes are being stocked
to an extent which should make
them paradises for fishermen.
Large areas are being set aside as
game preserves and foods are be-
ing cultivated to attract migratory
fowl and small game.
Varied Program Planned.
A feature of the celebration will
be the cruising of f1otilla of yachts
and motor cruisers representing
yacht clubs throughout the Missis-
sippi basin. up the chain of lakes
from Paducah, KY, where the
Tennessee flows into the Ohio, into
Chickamauga Lake. This lake is
to be the scene of speed boat races
for a $4,000 purse, aquaplane- and
water ski exhibitions and other
sports. There will be water
carnival with decorated floats and
fireworks displays in and around
Chattanooga and on Lookout Noun
tain. An air show and a horse
show, with the South's celebrated
thoroughbreds in review, parades
with floats, balls, flower shows and
other events are scheduled.
Apart from the celebration and
its new lakes, Tennessee Is proud
of the attractions it has to offer late
summer and fall visitors by auto
mobile, rail or air.
The State Is full of historical
scenes, ranging from the Natchez
Trace country, which became the
right of way for the earliest pio-
neers and explorers, to early Co.

and the great backgrounds of the
Civil War, among them Shilah,

nine days of ancient pageantry that
Is sacred to the Hopi heart.
For the 18th successive year ar
rangements are being made for q
special three-day motor cruise to
these ceremonials. Starting point
for the trip is Winslow, Ariz., on the
main line of the Santa Fe Railway.
The cruise will leave Winslow Au-
gust "a in time to reach Oraibi at
noon. In the afternoon the visitors
will see the antelope dance at one
of the nearby villages. The second
day features Indian races in the
early dawn, visits to the various
pueblos and the spectacular snake
dance at night. Returning, the
cruise will pass through the world

as vacation land a bid based upon
an extraordinary range of geo.
graphical conditions, from the
fiat, warm Mississippi Valley coun-
try, with its famous Reelfoot Lake,
to the high peaks of the Great
Smoky Mountains, will be empha-
sized by a Labor Day weekend
celebration in which nearly 200
communities in the Tennessee VAL
ley will participate.
The dedication of a great chain Of
man-made lakes in the Tennessee
Valley will be the occasion for a
celebration August 81 and Septem-
ber l and 2 centering at Chicka-
mauga Lake, eight miles above
Chattanooga. Chickamauga is one
of the series of new lakes which
have a total length of $50 miles and
a shore line greater than that of
the five Great Lakes combined.
The Tennessee Valley lakes, COM
posing a great new inland water
playground, stretch from the blue
grass region of West Kentucky
through parts of seven States, but
the major portion of the system is
concentrated in Tennessee. They
are coming to be called the Great
Lakes of the South.
Boating Devotees Created.
Each lake is banked above one of
the giant power dams constructed
by the Tennessee Valley Authority
and they all are joined by locks and
provide a around 9-foot chan
mel for water lovers. Tennesseeans
already have bought more than
1000 pleasure craft for use in the
new lake system and the sport Is
just beginning.
The Labor Day celebration will
be in the nature of carnival cele-
brating the addition to the histori-
cal and scenic attractions Tennes-
see always has had for tourists of
these lakes, with their lure for
yachtsmen, anglers and swimmers.
Moreover, T. V. A., in co-opera-
ton with Tennessee and neighbor-
ing States, is developing recrea-
tional program which is intended
to place the waterway in the fore
front of Americas rapidly-growing
