there:- It gives us a comfortable feel-

with the million and one other ad-
vantages. The colore ce catchy,
There'e a lithe white to make a con-
trast of the blue and red. It couldn't
be all white because ne White flag
ever flew over the Bridals. Empire.
The blue signifies the deep blue of
the ocean that has played such a
large part in our history. • The red
is the blood of Countless heroes whe
.13.0e died for our freedom. It's a
verse extraqrdinary flag on an ordin-
ary pole. Buy more stamps and
beads and keep the flag flying.
The first open tournament .,of 'the
season will be held next Monday eire-

A Fishing Tale
So many of your readers were
shocked and grieved to read the sae
news that our ,genial Postmaster had
done what you say: Put his fishing
equipment in dre dock for the Mason.
Whilst admitting that the game of
Boils haa mauy fervent followers,
espeeialln amongst those whose
physique is eo longer what' it *as,
and who desire to keep tip tome form
of sport, it is to be hoped thatluch
8,n ardent disciple of Isaac Walton is
not backsliding to such an extent as
eon -would lead the Seaforth anglers
to believe was really the case.
Whilst admitting those obnoxious
little pests, the skitters, are always
biting, there are still some big onee
being pulled ashore, as the 22,:inch
Brown Teout which turned the' scales
at 4 lbs. 8 ounces, and which sras
angled this week by a fiiend of the
Postniaster and a rnernber of the Sea -
forth Anaders Club; Allie Hildebrand.
Trusting that' this' may perhaps give
a flip 'to his energies, and that your
report may prove to lie oely a fishing
tale, we earnestly offer up the Attg-
Lord, give hiM grace to' eateh Mai
When talltittg at it afterwande;
