Need for Game Conservation it In day and age when most people seem to have forgotten that what we do today af fcczs tomorrow it is gratifying to hear the first rumours circulating around Barrie that Conservation Club might be started in the town Many of our local sportsmen already have this in mind and meeting is liker to be called in the very near future to enlist the aid of others The purpose of such an org anization would be to educate hunters and fishermen along the lines of preserving our game and fish It is regrettable but nonetheless true that today many of our socalled sportsmen 2113 pear to use neither discretion nor common sense iii the pursuit of what should be and is one of the finest recreational activities man ledge and animallore against the instinct of Gods creatures The thrill of the kill whether in hunt ing or fishing all too often becomes the over riding factor and such consideration as whether the prey comes within protected list is overlooked In other cases great dam age to our game reserves is caused by nothing other than plain ignorance So extreme has this become in the fishing world that the De partment of Lands and Forests fish manage nientofficials are having to conhldcr revising existing rules as to fishmeasurement so that the unnecessary destruction can be if not eliminated at least reduced Present fish regulations require the mea surement tobc taken from the tip of the nose to the rear end of the body at the base of the fork Experienced anglers understand this but many others do not fisherman not conversant with this ruling might measure the overall length of bass and consider it if measuring 10 inches to be within the regu lation size In actual fact if the fish had been measured properly it would have been desig nated properly as being under the 10inch minimum for this species To bring in work able scheme that will prevent such errors the Department officials will likely increase the regulation sizes and institute overall measurement of fish recentlyconducted poll has shown that 24 persons to four favour the proposed new measurement method Gen eral indications are that it would be most sensible step Unfortunately our game wardens are met with certain amount of hostility in their work They are the protectors of our wild life and the friends of the honest hunter or fisher who does not attempt to cheat others of their privileges Netting and spearing fish cannot be con demned too strongly Small isolated instances of these practices soon build up to sufficient ldegree to constitute national menace Fully aware of this the police are assisting in the drive to stamp out these evils as are all gen uine sportsmen who value the privileges which nature affords them The assistance of all sections of the com munity is urgently sought The reporting of instances of game and fiShing violations does not place the individual in the category of squealer Unfortunately human nature be ing what it is so many of us are inclined to let things like this go by unchallenged The dictates of conscience are averted and we excuse ourselves with the weakknead ex planation Oh well someone else will catch them eventually To establish Conservation Club locally will go long wayjto help overcome this and allied problems Whih are becoming too pre It Eing argued the merits of Monday holiday follow valent today NeVertheless

Courtenay district brings note of sanity to situation which many consumers have viewed with bewilderment While the problems of milk producers and distribu tors have been recognized it has been difficult to Justin the retention of any system of selling in which prices to the householder are kept even fractionain higher than they need be If milk can be sold more cheaply through store out lets then that is saving that should be granted the consumer If reduced delivery arrangements result in other savings without seribus detrirnent to the provis ion of milk to families that this reform too should be effected The improvements mentioned are confined to cer tain specified areas of the province viz Vancouver and Courtenay fIhere is no reaSOn why they should not be extended to any other areas where it is desired to try them out It is to be hoped that application forlstore sales of milk atria reduced price in Victoriaebvill shortly be made and as speedin granted The Milk Board should
