H OUT-OF-DOORS STUFF Special Fall Announcement New shipments of Black Bear and Filson Rain Clothes and Cruiser Coats, Bone-Dry and Weyenberg Shoes and Alligator rain coats are now on display. : See us for your wet weather wear MEN S WEAR Just as well have the bast. 26 R By Lans ^enevw The wind that comes out of the .oqth and howls dismally through the tops of the tees, bringing with it the first Fall rain, is roundly cursed by lots . of people. But what does it moan to a sportsman? .. i He has waited for days and days for just such a wind and rain. It means that the dry marsh», will be , filled with water and that the honking I of geese will soon bo heard. It means I that the first flight of ducks will soon ; be on the wing and it will not be many days until be (the sportsman) will be [crouching in a blind with a flock of birds circling his decoys. So white some people are dis gruntled at the storm, the heart of the duck hunter is gladdened. And oh, the joy of preparing for the opening day! Again the familiar feel of the old shotgun, the restocking of the shell vest. / Got there in his kennel, your old pal, the huntin’ dog, «tenses the change of the elements and a new light shines in his eyes as you give him his even ing meal and tell him to be ready for the big hunt soon to come. You never forget that first morning of the opening season—shouldering the old gyn again after all those long months of waiting. As you wend your way marshward you. are wondering if the birds will fly over tl)e same old pass and will the younger birds decoy in the same man ner they did the part winter. At last you are in your blind; the decoys are struhg out' before you in 'the^ semi-light of approaching dawn and you wait with every nerve strain ed, eyes seeking to' penetrate the baf fling gloom, Oars alert to catch once again thatugld familiar whirr of whist ling wings. ; , - ..... Off to your left comes the sound you have been longing for. Baffling shapes loom for an instant in the uncertain light and then vanish into the gloom. Spreading like a\huge fail the light of day engulf« the marshlands and “shooting time” is here at last. Your blood tingles and your heart boats faster as down wind comes a flock of birds. You slip the safety on your gun ahead, raise it to your shoulder and pull down on the ap proaching birds. E Forgotten are the long, hot sum mer months. Forgotten is the long wait for just this particular moment. Forgotten is everything but the flock of white-breasted birds now within range. ras in the service wan (this in a fart) u>out the greenhorn in the service, ’ ,bo wan being interviewed by the •¡Strict Warden.

Fish, law enforcement officer, calls deputy game wardens’ attention to the federal law which permits but four geese in any one day and IS in seven consecutive days. The federal law prevails and hunters are warned to disregard the state figures and ob serve the federal. Mr. Fish also writes the deputies as '»Uows in, regard to seisurw of guns, tame or unlawful device«, from hunt- jrsl and fishermen: “In all cases, where It is deemed ad- ■isable by arresting officer to eonfis- ate 'game, guns, or other implemonta ised in violation of the game laws, ou are instructed to elosely follow lection of law in Section 25, Page 29, f Game Code, by asking for, and hav- ng it made a part of, cdurt order con- 1 seating such property at time of massing sentence on defendant from vhom property has been seised. It is 'ecmed advisable for the Warden to tr range for local disposition of all >?rish*ble game by giving same to county poor farms, charitable institu ions or recognized needy families lo- ■ally. However, in so disputing of 'onfiscated game, or any game whero- n no arrests are made, you are in- ‘ructed to take receipt in duplicate for same.” Doing WeU With F oxm Mr. and Mm.

The answer is easy. Putting those frogs in the marshslands was just the same proposition of turning' a mouse loose amongst a lot of house cats. At the time the flogs were lib erated there were'many coon and mink in the marshslands and if any thing these animals like better than frogs it is more frogs.

Force ol Commission Sees Changing Opinion on Branch Banking Issue—Studies Group and Chain Banks. NEW YORK.—Modification of the at titude of bankers on the long disputed branch banking question to forecast to a review and report covering rapid changes going on in banking Issued here by the Economic Policy Commis sion of the American Benkers Asso ciation. The report, however, after referring to recent proposals that na tional banks be given branch banking powers within the business territory surrounding their location, declares that “wo do not believe that so-called •trade-area’ branch banking to Ukely to gain the support of any largo per oentage of the banklug fraternity." The commission says that the “most Important development that has af fected American banking in recent years Involves the rapid growth of multiple banking organisations In the form of group, chain and branch bank ing systems,” and adds that “we pre sent this report as an unprejudiced economic study and have no theories or policies to urge at this time." The statement says that the commission'. Information indicates there are now 20 group or chain bank systems, which control 1922 banks and 915,285,- 000.900 to aggregate resources, and that there are only six states and the District of Columbia where It does no* find say group organisations. The Commission's Invortlgstlen “We have been to touch with the managers of many Important bank groups,” the report says. "Aside from the obvious economies of centralised operation and control a number of these organisation heads very frankly tell us that they do not feel that the system has been to operation and tested long enough to justify them to making positive or sweeping state ments as to Its advantages or disad vantages compared to unit banking. “Ths Banking and Currency Com mittee of the House, which is con ducting an Investigation Into banking developments, has called a number at operating heads of some of As groat group systems.
