• A lady was trying to improve the

She said. "We will get them to

their throats." •

Every parent wants the children
to appreciate the classical: That
le, to know about good music, fine
art, the best books and so on. And
what do we do about it? We tiptoe
up to 'the child, catch him from
behind and say, "Now, here • is
romething you may not like at the
• tfriit, hut down it goes." .,
In doing so we are not a bit dif-
ferent from the lady who tried. to
let her audience interested in fine

one'channel that cannot.be eon -

which sends letters to :asmany as

REEL INFORMATION
One of the questions that event-
ually_ pops up at alldiscussions
surrounding .the art of angling • is
''who invented the fishing reel"?
As a matter of fact crude reels •
were 'used over 304• years ago. At
that time, within two° feet of the
end of the rod, there was a hole
made to put in a wind, turned
with a- barrel to gather up and
loose line.
The earliest type of reel with,
which we are familiar, consisted
of a. spool with handle riveted
directly to the spool. These reels
were made • of brass a and were.
without click or drag. Reels of
this type are still on the market
and retail at about one dollar.
The mulitplying reel was an
American invention,' introduced
by a 'Kentucky watchmaker about
1834: Black bass fishermen
. everywhere still fav"pur the orig-
inal style reel, with few refine-
•ments. Innovations such as free •
spool, level winding and anti -
back -lash devices now are built in-
to these reels, but the general'
construction remains the sante.
Also extensively developed
have been the big game fish reels..
These reels' are now built in sizes
large enough to hold 1,000 .yards
of 39 -thread line. They are equip-
ped with handles that turn one ,
way only, and adjustable drags
that can be controlled by the ang-
ler. We have come quite 'a Way.
since the first ,riniitive reel was
lashed to a ro:.
