TREDAS SAFE COLOR fOR HUNIfRS Regulation White Held Dangerous in North, Hoeschen Says GUN CLUB HEAD IS BACK FROM WOODS City Tax Sale Is Again Postponed The annual city tax sale which was originally to have been held November 17 has been adjourned a second time, the date now being set for December 14. The first adjournment was to December 1. Under provisions of the City Act no further adjournment will be possible, the assessor stated. The adjournments were made with a view of giving greater opportunity to property owners to pay up tax arrears. Properties sold at the sale may be redeemed, but 10 per cent penally is immediately applied.

When the tax sale list was first compiled there were about 3.000 properties on the list. This number has since been reduced to approximately 1,800.

BROTHERS GIVEN TERMS JAIL Fred Derry to Spend 2 Years At Penitentiary; James Gets 18 Months The Star-Phoenix Relief Fund sends sincere thanks to the club of Vera (per Dorothy Watt, president) for ita money order of Frank and Alice of Springwater sent $5 they wished to be spent on a war veterans family. It shall be done. A postal order was received containing $2.50, coming from J. B. of Fremont.

vestigated before anything is sent out. All monies received are spent entirely upon the poor and needy, in purchase of mitts, warm heavy underwear, stockings, socks, shoes, gloves, dresses for the school children and flannelette for the new babies. In fact we buy everything that we possibly can to help out our large list of families. The adoption of red as the color to be worn by big game hunters in the bush is being strongly advocated by trappers and hunters, according to B. W.

Hoeschen, president of the Saskatoon Gun Club, and well-known big game hunter, on his return from a three weeks hunting trip in northern Saskatchewan. TRAPPERS AGREED During my trip," Mr. Hoeschen stated, "I met several trappers who have been in the north for years, and all were of the opinion that the white uniforms now prescribed are positively dangerous. They state that it is practically impossible to distinguish between hunter and caribou when the latter is facing the hunter in muskeg country. The white mane, and general white flares which touch the caribou hide make it extremely difficult to distinguish the hunter.

One trapper with 25 years experience, Mr. Hoeschen said, "sighted his party and mistook one of the members for a caribou, He withheld fire to make sure, and had to wait for several minutes to determine whether the object was man or beast. SUITS GET DIRTY It is pointed out by trappers and hunters that the white suits become dirty and streaked by contact with burnt underbrush and dust from deadfall, and that hunters after they have been in the bush for several days have no clean white suits. The adoption of the red uniform would eliminate any possibility of mistake. The brighter the red the better, is the opinion of trappers.

This color has been adopted in Ontario and Alberta and other provinces are i amending their Game Acts to make red the color to be worn. Mr. Hoeschen reports that elk are plentiful in the ftorth, especially bulls, and suggests the advisability of having a limited open season on bull elk next year. He also reports that a large number of elk are being killed in the north by others than licensed hunters. Jumping deer are extremely scarce in certain districts, he said, while there is a noticeable falling off in the supply of caribou.

A chink in the provisions of the City Act appears to have made it possible for J. S. Mills, normal school instructor, to be elected both mayor and high school trustee in Saskatoon for 1933. The act reads that no person may be nominated for more than one civic office, but it is contended that the position of school trustee does not come in this category. ONTARIO ACT, COPIED A leading local legal authority, commenting on the unusual situation today, remarked that it had been the wish of the provincial authorities to fashion the City Act in this respect after the Ontario statute, and that if this had been faithfully accomplished, Mr.

Mills' double candidature would not have been possible. R. D. Phillips, acting city solicitor, refused to give an opinion on the matter. In support of the claim that the school board seats do not come under the provisions of the act, it is pointed out that the mayor, ex-officio member of all municipal boards, is not an ex-officio member of the school boards.

ENTRY. CONDITIONAL In entering his candidature for the high school board, after consulting legal opinion, Mr. Mills did so conditionally, stipulating that if he could not legally be a candidate for both offices, he wished his candidature for mayor to stand. Mr. Mills today definitely denied the rumor current during the past few days that he would be a Farmer-Labor candidate to oppose Charles Agar, M.L.A., for the Saskatoon county constituency, in the next provincial elections.

PUT ON YOUR HIP BOOTS ON TUESDAY 1 One appeal received today reads: Dear Fund: Just a line to ask you if you would be so kind as to send me and my two nieces some clothes to keep us warm. My husband is a returned man, he was gassed in the war and also lost the sight of bis left eye, but he doesnt get any pension. My two little nieces have been raised since they were babies as they are orphans, one is eight and the other six. The oldest one is going to school, but has not got any warm clothes to go with, such as underwear and shoes and stockings, and as there is no work here we are having a very hard time of it. I cannot go out as I have nothing to put on myself and.

I am expecting a baby in the spring. I would also be very thankful to get a suit coat for my husband, his size is 40, and if you could please send me some candies for my little nieces stockings, as I know they wont have anything for Christmas. We will be thankful for anything we can get. The Clothing Bureau was originally opened for the purpose of eliminating the overlapping that has always existed in connection with the distribution of clothing. To show how this purpose is sometimes innocently defeated, we mention one case.

It was recently brought to our attention that a charitable organization had this fall given a certain little girl a coat, a dress and several other articles. Not long before this time, this same little girl had applied to the Clothing Bureau, had received a coat, and practically the same list of articles. It is not surprising that she did not resist the opportunity to get more clothes, but the fact remains that she now has two coats, while some other little girl may have none at all. THEYRE THANKFUL TO WHOLESALERS LeRoy Co-operative Cheese Factory Notes Business Increase, Price Slump A doubling of the volume of business accompanied by a serious reduction of prices was reported at the annual meeting of the milk producers of the LeRoy co-operative cheese factory. The organization which financed its milk purchases by the issuance of scrip, redeemed when the cheese was sold, passed a vote of thanks to the wholesalers for the splendid assistance, rendered by them in respect to the marketing of LeRoy cheese.

Most of the cheese was sold through Saskatoon firms. With respect to volume and patronage, the year was considered highly successful. The plant had handled 1,162,890 pounds of milk and turned out 108.105 pounds of cheese this season, practically doubling the volume handled last year. The milk producers were however greatly disappointed with the seasons average price of milk at 63 cents per 100 pounds. This was a reduction of 34 cents from the 97 cents paid last year.

A resolution was passed urging that as the product was of quality with the cheese from eastern Canada and pioduction costs, due to climatic conditions, were higher in the west, the price should bn that of the eastern product pljs the freight. Recreation Hour Being Tried Out Saskatoon Firemen Will Stage Annual Ball With Many Card Prizes Two blood brothers who for years have been brothers in crime, drew long prison terms from Police Magistrate F. M. Brown, K.C., yesterday afternoon for burglary raids on two local drug stores on November 15 and 24. The accused, Fred and James Derry, previously had pleaded guilty to two charges of breaking, entering and theft.

Fred, 24, was sentenced to two years in Prince Albert penitentiary, and James, 22, was given 18 months in Prince Albert jail. At the morning session of the court, William Derry was granted suspended sentence on one charge of breaking, entering and theft. The magistrate considered him to be "a victim of circumstance who is entitled to an opportunity to make good. All three were arraigned on a charge in connection with the break-in of Pinders Lome Avenue drug store where they were arrested by Sergeant Hugh Bryden and Constable Hugh Ireland. Only one pen and pencil set had been picked up as loot when police nabbed the youths red-handed.

Fred and James Derry also pleaded guilty to a charge of breaking, entering and theft from Pauls drug store on November 15 when they obtained a $383 haul. Most of this was recovered by detectives. William, who is only 19, was not concerned in this robbery and had no previous record. The sentences imposed on Fred and James Derry were two years and 18 months respectively on each of the charges, but the terms will run concurrently.

Jacks, head of the Kaymis Mutual Benefit Association, was arrested at his home here tonight on charges of false pretenses and with operating an insurance company without a license. Only one charge of false pretenses has been laid against Jacks at the present time, that of obtaining $1 from Mark O. Harrison, Fort QuAppelle. The dollar, allegedly paid by Harrison, was for a death assessment levied on the presumed death of Marion E. Nichols, who was not a member of the association.

Jacks was held in the city police cells tonight and will appear before Magistrate Torney in police court Wednesday morning, when bail will be fixed. While there is only one charge of false pretenses laid at the present time, it is understood that there are 68 similar cases which the crown will bring before the court, and possibly more when the investigations are completed.

I SEE All applications for toys made to The Saskatoon Star-Phoenix Relief Fund, are being turned over to the Boy Scout Toy Repair Shop and the scouts will take care of past and future demands. In spite of heavy city lists and numerous calls from the country, including missions and Christmas trees.

the Saskatoon Scouts have promised to look after 32 families (144 children) the names of whom were sent In from Ottawa, all of them new settlers in this province. Daily the demands for toys are being met through the generous response of the public, which is sending in toys of all description, discarded and unused, but after the scouts have applied paint and used the soldering iron on mechanical trains and cars, these toys would not be recognized as those which left the homes a few days previously. Although the shop is being operated by the Saskatoon Scouts, it is truly a Saskatoon institution, as all have played a part in making it a success, and the management cordially invites the citizens to the shop when they can witness the scouts at work and see for themselves the great changes that are being made in the toys that they have supplied. The address is 221 Second Avenue, south, the phone number 7324. JOHN FREBORN The funeral service for John Fre-born, who died Sunday, was held Tuesday afternoon from McKagues chapel, where Rev.
