The hunter may find this an-

imal anywhere in the sporting

regions of British Columbia

and in abundan’ce in parts of

Alberta. Good hunting at all

times, it is popular with big-
game men.

_On the upper left-hand corner of the
license the term “two years” was pencilled.
One day a Game Warden came upon our
friend and asked to see his license. It was
produced and proved to be one year
overdue.

When this was pointed out to the hunter,
he raised a very strong objection.

“Why,” he told the amazed Game
Warden, “that license is good for two
years.

“Tt says so right there in the top corner.”

The Game Warden had to put him right
and, of course, ignorance of the law is never
an excuse for violation of that law.

Girt Proves GuILt

On another occasion, Mr. Butler recalls,
one of his men suspected that a hunter had
shot some birds out of season and had do-
nated the birds to a friend.

The Game Warden just walked up to
the house where it was believed the birds
were stored.

A woman answered the door.

“Could you let me have those birds that
Mr. X brought in here today?” the Warden
asked politely.

“Why, certainly,” the woman answered.

She entered the house, brought out the
birds and just handed them to the Warden,
who stood there open-mouthed at the
success of his little strategy.

But such little incidents are taken in the
every-day course of events. These slight
occurences can never alter the fact that a
mighty large and important task confronts
the men who are always on the job.

They must guard the big game of the
Cariboo and the Cassiar and the Kootenays.

They look toward the wild fowl of ,
Cariboo and Chilcotin Districts and m,
also keep a weather eye throughout ;
golden Okanagan Valley, where some of t
best pheasant shooting is recorded.
Over on Vancouver Island are thousap
of blue grouse, and in almost every corp
of British Columbia are found willow a
ruffled grouse in plentiful quantities,
The economic aspects of this game pla
ground must not be overlooked. Every no
resident hunter leaves about $1000 in ¢
