THE ATLANTA GEOKOLAN AND NEWS. ll'EFDAY, NOVEMDEU W. PROPOSE TO STOP SALE OF QUAIL ' TO PROTECT GAME Hunters May Draft Bill For Next Session of the Legislature. If a movement now on foot among local sportsmen is successful, the game laws of (ieorgla will be more rigid after the session of the state legislature next summer. Chief among the amendments proposed, which are to be embodied In a bill now* In course of preparation, will be a provision to prevent the sale of quail In Georgia. Simi lar laws are now in effect in Tennessee and Alabama and are said ot be productive of much good in the matter of preserving game. This is the idea underlying the pro* posed new Georgia law—the preservation of the birds. Sportsmen who have studied the situation believe this is the solution of the came problem. Auotner Item that will directly affect the nluirods is the proposition to provide a cer- tain license for all hnnters. The money to be derived from this license, it Is pro posed, shall go toward a fund to pay the salary of a game warden, whose duty it would have little effect. It Is understood the movers contemplated having such a bill introduced at the last session of the legislature, but deferred the matter owing to the prohibition tight and other important lealalation that occupied most of the time of the law-makers. J. M. Heinz, of the firm of Helus & Sons, dealers In sportsmen*! supplies tnd a lovsr of the sport, said: ••The law proposed, I* Is believed, will be of material benefit to Georgia In the matter of preserving game. In fact, this Is consld- ered the only solution. Tennessee and Ala* taint have such laws in force, and, accord ing to reports, these states now have more game than they know what to do with. The laws of Alabntim are particularly strlngeut. • The Georgia law at presept provides a license of $2o on all market huntsmen, but (his seems to pot bat little. If any, check on the marketing of quail. This Is due to the fact, I suppose, that the law gives every farmer the riant to kill birds ou bis own land. If the sale of quail was stopped entirely, the birds would soon Increase to such an extent the tarmera would be beg ging people to come oat and kill them. ••And Ir the stat% will put a license on hunters, enough money would l»e realised to properly pay a state game warden. Unless wo have n good man Tn this place who will seo that the law Is enforced its enactment will lie of no benefit. A small license, of say. about $1, could be placed on resident hunters, and a larger ambunt on non-rest- dents. The sportsmen believe that If such laws are put In force, the sport will be greatly Improved.** ARE GIVEN A START L Friday Night at the Or pheum To Be Feature This Season.

Of course there's an Oriental Island, a potentate, an American governor, a naval lieutenant and hie sweetheart, and the waving of Old Glory. When the whole stage full of principals suddenly carried off by a balloon and landed on the Isle of Inde, Miss Maude Lillian Berrl manages to carry live changes of costume. Including a picture hot and an evening gown-rbut lit tle things like that don't worry musical comedy makers. For the music I* there, the swinging dreamy lyrics of Gustav Luders, recalling our old fa vorite, "The Prince of Plleen," and the reet, and Frank Plsley ha* put lots of fun Into the book.
