PAGE FC’ THE HERMISTON HERALD. HERMISTON, OREGPM. O. S. C. Celebrates 69th Commencement May 31 U. S. Sportsmen Licenses Cost $11,000,000 in ’36 Washington.—American sports men paid $10,466,237.37 for state hunting licenses and $603,623 for fed eral migratory bird hunting stamps in 1936, according to figures pub lished by the Department of Agri culture. The total for 1937 has not been compiled, but the 1936 figures were said to have exceeded those for 1935 by almost $1,000,000. The federal government collected fees, $1 being charged for each “ duck stam p,’’ affixed to a state license, giving authority to hung mi gratory water fowl. Of the total licenses issued, one- fourth were accounted for by New York, Pennsylvania and Michigan. H. P. Sheldon, chief of the United States biological survey's publicity bureau, said that there had been a constantly improving interest in hunting, due largely to improve ment in water-fowl conditions and the greater interest aroused by skeet shooting. He said that new conservation ef forts would be undertaken after July 1 by virtue of a law authorizing con gress to appropriate sums for wild life projects equal to revenue de rived from federal taxes on fire arms, shells and cartridges.

Ripon, Wis. — John Faustman, Ripon college student, found that he has had to pull strings to get him self through college. But the strings he pulls are not of the political kind. They are attached to his puppet troupe whose performances before school and college audiences are helping him pay expenses. Faustmhn is only nineteen years old and a freshman in the college, but he is a veteran of eight years' experience with his performing marionettes. He organized his troupe in Seattle, when he was eleven and has improved and enlarged his cast, props and repertoire regularly since then. His presentations now include “The Three Little Pigs,” “The Gold Bug,” “Little Red Riding Hood,” “The Haunted House,” “ Jack and the Beanstalk,” and many vaude ville skits which he has devised. Woman Gets Nice Profit From Alaska Directory Seattle.—Miss Varde Bras, who reputedly knows more about Alaska men, women, children and dogs than anyone in the world, has made a business success of an Alaska directory. Miss Bras operates her directory at the New Washington hotel. She started it because throat trouble forced her to give up vaudeville singing two years ago. The service has a branch in Fairbanks. “I handle mail and business deals and all sorts of things for people in Alaska,” she said. “ I keep records of confidential things in code, and I never tell about people’s where abouts unless I know they want them known. So people trust me and tell me where they are going and how long they are going to stay.” t <• Top: Crater lake, two and one-half hours drive from Medford, convention city of the Oregon Newspaper Publishers association, June l l - l l .
