If our Government would ap-Dolnt Native Sons of B. C. as pro vincial constables, men of the frontiers, natural bora hunters who know all local conditions, there would be no need whatever nf putting the Province to the extra heavy expense of maintaining a Game Department as the provincial constables could easily look after our game If men appointed knew their business. There are thousands of such men In British Columbia. There is no need to Import them from the outside. It Is needless to mention that this very small act of the Oam Department has caused a feeling of Mtter resentment atjalnst them and he government. Surely In times 'Ike thrse It would be cheaper for the government to allow these settlers, who are already living from hand to mouth existence, to hoot game for thlr own use for their food than for tne govern-!mnt to have to keep them at more extra cost to the province The writer like thousands of others In British Columbia, believe ithat our province Is over offldal-itzed.
