of wild life destruction is going
to be what I know and not what
I think, nor what others know and
think. In no wise shqll I write
personally but rather collectively.
I shall try to make it plain the
cause of disappearing wild life,
or at least some of the causes.
In the early stages of these let­
ters, and before I really get
“warmed up,” I wish to make it
known that I, in my younger days,
was somewhat of a “sportsman,”
a “game-hog." In those days I
was not happy unless I was hunt­
ing or fishing.
Like most all
youth it seemed that I had an in­
herent lust to kill. I wanted to be
known as a mighty hunter; in fact
I had no sense or shame, no pity
for the wild things that came
within range of a charge of shot
or bullet from my guns; in those
days there were no game laws, no
game wardens, no "bag’’ limit and
no licenses. Never yet have 1
bought a hunting or fishing lic­
ense. In those days there were
no paid government hunters, legal
poisoners, poisoners of predatory
life from wolf to song-bird, a wild
life assassin with immunity from
what you or I would be fined or
jailed for, legalized assassins that
all mankind ought to cry out to
high heaven against, a crime
against God. man and all nature.
Now, if the Kerby Rod & Gun
club is sincere in its efforts to
sustain what little there is of the
fast disappearing forms of wild
life, if they truly wish to rehabil-
itate, bring back to its pristine
glory the wild things that inhab­
ited our woods and waters, let
those who are members and who
are its friends, get together en-
masse, go in a body to our county
court and demand the discontinu­
ance of the “office” of govern­
ment “hunter.” Let them hit this
evil so hard that the jar will be
felt by every conservation club
existing under the Stars and
Stripes. Let this be the first step
in the mighty task of restoring
wild life to forest and stream.
