THE SHOOTING SEASON.
To the Editor. Sir, As the shooting season for 1914 is close at hand I wish to use your columns to notify those lovers of the gun that, holding opinions as I do, as regards native scenery, I also include Taranaki'.s native birds, and that as I know it has been the custom for people from other parts of the district to use Durham a? a means to poach 011 the Mt. Egmont Reserve and destroy the native 'birds there,' I intend to notify the authorities in future as to the visits of such gentry. Whether people li«te it or not I feel it my duty, and I'm not going to go any back way about it in notifying as I do. I hope you will insert this in the hope of causing some people tot recognise that the future has u little right to lie considered and also wake up those who are supposed to be custodians oE the rights of future jgenerations.—I am, etc., JOE. B. SIMPSON. Durham road,
