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.

Medford Awaits O. N. P. A. Conclave.
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.”
