THE GROUSE LAW.
, It is to the credit of tho sportsmen
'of Union county that there are ex
tremely few violations of the grouse
luw, or any other hunting laws. To
morrow morning tho sportsmen may
shoot grouse to a limited number of
. course, and on. the whole the sports
men huvo been obediently waiting for
the legal date. Of course, in some in
stances, there have been isolated vio-
lotions violations that are hard to
' reach.. - ; " -:-' .'
It has not always been so. Several
reuaons contribute to Improved con
ditions. Vigilance of the game war
dens is a mighty factor, but he can
be in only one place at a time. Still
another contributing cause is the feet
that the Wing. Fin & Fleetfoot club
has bent its energies to enforcing tho
law, through its widespread member
ship. Not only are tho big majority
of organized sportsmen hewing true
t' the law, but their influence retards'
pre-season hunting by men and boys
who are not members. . In a large
measure the improved protection giv
en to game in this county comes back
tn the credit of the Wing, Fin St
Fleetfoot club. '
ARMIES COME TO SLOWER PACE.
Germans have managed to slow
dewn the allied offensive. That is to
be expected. It is beyond the reulnvof
feasibility to bolster one's hopes to the
point of expecting the nllied armies
to go on to Berlin, without setbacks
and halts.

. A SCHOOL PIHECTOK.
There are thankless jobs in this
world but few positions of public trust
approach the responsibility, obscurity
and lack of public appreciation that
falls to the lot of the average school
director. His work proceeds quietly,
and he seldom gains that more or less
generally sought reward, publicity;!
yet always and over the director must
give his timo and attention to the.
affairs of the school.
The parenthood of America has ac
quired the habit of throwing school
cares upon the shoulders of the direc
tors. Most people are free to criticise
and pick flaws if things do not go to
suit them, yet seldom, if ever offei
counsel to the members or help to re
lieve their burdens or even to pass a
word of praise when praise is due.
The tendency is wholly the othe..
way. Night after night, day aftei
day, hour after hour, the director must
give his time anil attention without
cash remuneration, being recompensed
only by that inward sense of gratifi
cation of having done something to
ward 'the promulgation of the com
munity's offnlrs. Here's to the schoo'
director!
No nobler feeling than this, of ad
miration for one higher than himself,
dwells lu the hreust of man. It Is to
this hour, mid nt all hours, the vivify-

or more of very fine grain, and the grain was very fine
and costly. Where would you put it'.' In on old stove, or

probably be destroyed by rats or mice insects would make
it worthless; fire destroy1 it, or somebody might steal it!
