Abstract
Just as early man killed off the Indian, so is his successors killing off the game unless something is done and done immediately to curb the killing desire of many of our American people. ,Just as our forests are beingĀ· depleted, so is the game being depleted. We have in part learned our lesson in forestry; so why not take heed before ''the horse is stolen the second time?'' The ''barn door'' is being closed now slowly but surely by the establishment of migratory bird refuges throughout the United States, both in the breeding country and in the resting country or wintering grounds.
