WESLEYAN DRIVE REACHES
CLIMAX WITHIN FEW WEEKS
Macon, Ga., May 1.—Urgency of
the problems confronting Wesleyan
college in the matter of the comple
tion of its new plant at Rivoli, near
here, are forcefully brought out in
statements) by several friends of the
college, all of whom are of consider
able prominence in this and neigh
boring states. One of the mast im
portant points in these statements is
that which'stresses the immediate
need of finance* with which to pro
vide an administration building and
chapel and two other buildings dur
ing this year.
Unqualified approval of the Great
er Wesleyan campaign for the second
million of the $3,000,UU0 ultimate
goal, which is now in progress, is the
psevailing note in statements from
Judge John S. Candler, Dr. S. It. Belk
and S. C. Dobbs, of Atlanta; Dr. T.
D. Ellis, genera! seceretary of tnc
church board of extension, M. E.
church, South, of Louisville, Ky.; R.
O. Jonos, of Newnan; Dr. G. M.
Enkes, of Augusta; Rev. W. F. Smith,
of Quitman, and Mrs. Bessie H. Nunn
of Perry.
One of the most impressive de
clarations of the lot came from Dr.
Ellis, who said: “It nemes to me that
the greatest work that can be done
for the womanhood of Georgia right
tow is the completion of the new
Greater Wesleyan plant All friends
of Wesleyan college should rally to
its support with liberal contributions
until this, the oldest chartered col
lege for the education of women, is
properly housed on its new campus."

DOCS AND CATS DESTROY THE
EGGS AND YOUNG QUAIL
Farmer* U«r t erf To Keep These
Animals From Roaming During
The Laying and Hatchiag
Season of Birds
A'lanta, April 25.—Only one out
of an average of 10 eggs laid by
quail ever produce .. matured bird.
Generally there is the belief that
the activity of the State Game and
Fish Department in the preserva
tion and protection of game birds
and animals is restricted to the mat
ter of observance of the hunting sea
sons, coming principally during the
fall and winter months. In truth
some of the most earnest endeavor of
the Department is vxi rted during the
nesting and breeding season, and it
is to this phase of the work the De
partment is devoting itself at this
time. Indeed, observation has shown
that protection of the wild life of the
state during nesting and breeding is
more important to the sportsman
ship than any period of the year.
A study of the habits and condi
tions, particularly of quail, has shown
the Department that the loss of eggs
in the nests and young birds will run
approximately ‘.*0 per cent. This de
struction comes through half-starved
prowling dogs roaming the woods and
fields during the nesting period. The
destruction, though, is not confined
to dogs. Nests are invaded and every
egg destroyed by coons, skunks,
o'possum and other predatory vermin
as well as dogs. Then, after the
hatch in the spring, when such of the
eggs as have eneaped the prowlers
are brought through by the mother
bird, the little birds fall prey to
vagrant house cats proyling largely
in the night time.
A great deal of data of this kind I
has been gathered by the State Game
jind Fisn Department, and, in its ef
forts to combat as much as possible
the enormous destruction cooperation
is being sought by the Department
among the sportsmen, the farmers,
landowners and all other citizens of
the State who are interested in game
protection.
In Georgia there are no laws regu
lating prowling dogs and cats, but
the Department, in the absence of
such laws, is endeavoring to inspire
sufficient sentiment among the people
in the country districts generally
persuade owners to keep their dogs
penned during the nesting season of
the birds, and to kill off all stray
cats not useful or desirable as mous-
ers. Pet cats, ns a matter of course,
arc more closely watched, or should
be.
It would be hard to estimate just
how ninny times the farmers of the
state can multiply the quail and oth
er birds on their farms even in one
season by giving attention to protec
tion of nests from stray dogs and
cats, and other predutory animals.
Cloae cooperation along this line one
Reason will declare an almost un
believable dividend in real, legitimate
sport the following season.
