He requested to be allowed to speak to rid when she bent down to hear is words he hit off her ear.

Then the youth spoke to the crowd: “If she ad punished me when I first de- served it. I should not have been Itmdins here today."

And then there is a. very vital point to be remembered: Game. as such. is an arbitrary classification of certain species protected or rear- ed for the pleasurable ds’n'u.ction by a small minority. Also. remember that wildlife has been decreed by the courts of the land to belong to all the people. Fur-bearers are not allocated in- alienably to the trapper and game to the gunner. Wildlife belongs to you and to me equally with the man‘ who kills it! Game is no more interesting nor worthy of preservation than other species of wildlife enjoyed by the great majority. Yet we are con- fronted by a belligerent determina- tion in certain groups to sacrifice wildlife as a whole to the mainten- ance of GAME Nowhere is this selfish deteimlinn- tion more clearly expressed than in repens. is the species bommonly met with in this district: the leaf- divisions are broad and iretiuently mottled in lighter green, wh lo the stems form runners which root at the nodes. In France this butter- cup is known as "Pred do coq." The last but one of the genus is the Tall Buttercup, B. acrie. the "Grenouillette" of the peasants. Horticulturlsts have ro- dnced a. double form of this pant known as '-‘Yellow Bachelor's But- tons." The leaves are.very acrid, and it is said that the gypsy beg- gars in some countries produced sores on their limbs. to excite com- passion, by rubbing with these stems and leaves divided into very narow lobes.
