The men ot M oro in d vicinity
have organized a rabbit drive and
hunt for Friday of this week. A
line up of seventy three hunters
to a side have been selected; one
under ihe leadership of L.Barnum
and the other under M artin Han­
sen. Members of eacty side are
to leave their homes at seven a.m.
Friday and report at the E O LC o
office at 8 p.m. the same day with
all captured game.
r
A ll game brought in must be
captured within Sherman county
and the loosing side to stand the
expense of giving a free moving
picture show. The contest shall
be decided by points; jack rabbits
count 10; cotton tails 15; coyote,
bob cat, w ild cat, or coon (color­
ed) 1000; magpie, hawk, raven,
or crow 50; eagle or horned owl
500; skunk or weasel 100; w ild
goose, badger, or trout 150, rattle­
snake 3000; porcupine 150; wharf
or wood rat 10; english aparrow 5.
A ll game secured w ill be taken
in charge by a committee and for-1
warded to the relief committee at
Portland.
. It was said that some one* on
Hansen's side hpd dug out a por­
cupine and wan waiting foi Friday
to k ill it and that Barnum's sidd
had trapped a coyote and .was
waiting also for Friday.
Frank Sayres Says “ it is better
to offer free advice and not be so
liberal with lending a hand." He
loaned his hand and just missed
having the fingers o f bis right

tank from which he expects to sell
hay to autoists next summer. 7"
