ROD Gu'N Some of t'he main objectives of a Rod & Gun Club are to help build up our game pop­ulation by destroying predators and by back­ing any project which might improve conditions for game, also to instil a spirit of true sportsmanship in the younger generation, our sportsman of tomorrov/. Various farmers of this district who have been feeding and otherwise trying to protect our game birds during the winter months, and who are anxious to see them be­come more plentiful arc complaining of per­sistent shooting out of season. Just because there are quite a few birds along some roads does not moan thajr they are plentiful all over. They naturally search the roads for spilled grain and bits of grit uncovered by the winds. What chance would future sportsman have if we all cut loose at every Pheasant we saw, season or no season? What sport could there be in shooting Prairie Chickens just because they happen to bo looking for something to eat on the bare foad during the winter? Shoot Magpies, Hawks, and Grows, yes,— but leave the game birds, they have a hard, enough time at the best, F,’ F, Balderson Notices The Ladies Aid Meeting will be held on Friday, March 1st in the Church in­stead of the home of Mrs, J.C.
