R ports are that some people re killing all the deer they can n Lookout Mountain despite he fact it’s against the law. labama has a ranger who is rev nting such a waste of dife across the line. We are laws here, too, if we had ome one to enforce them in uch cases. One man in parti - ular at Head River has killed number of deer. If law-abid- ng citizens will cooperate we nil bring such outlaws to court or punishment. The dry, hot, windy weather makes the danger of forest fires much greater. Be careful and let the young trees live. In the state-wide Keep Geor- gia Green contest Dodge Coun¬ ty was awarded first prize of $1,000. We made a good start in the contest here in Dade, setting out thousands of seed¬ lings. But a few criminals knocked us out of the running by letting our forests burn. People who set fire to forests re criminals. Those who are in a po ition to help put fires out and do not do so are poor citizens.
