if it Is tough to live with thein, it might
be tougher to live without them. To
some of us, our friendship has extend-

have valued your ready smile, sincere
handshake, and your friendliness. It

For friendship is a noble thing

, Large Cucumbers No Freak
As Grown By Goderich Man
Everyone takes pride in plucking a
large cucumber from the vines in their
own garden, but ordinarily the large
ones get away on us and become tinged
with ripeness before we discover them.
Not so the ones grown by Mr, Alex
Osbaldeston, of Goderich, who during
the past summer has been assisting
with the line work on the local muni-
cipal telephone systein.
Alex brought to The Standard Office
during the past week two cucumber
specimens that were real dandies, one
measuring 18 inches and the other
23 inches. The 23 inch one was per-
fectly shaped like a walking cane, and
was altnost long enough to use for that
purpose.
The variety is a new one that Mrs
Osbaldeston'tried this year for the first
time called "Chinese Long." Their ave•
rage length is from 18 to 20 inches,
and they do not grow large and ugly
in circumference but maintain a slen-
der, very edibile appearance, which
when sliced for the table, make fine
eating,
A dozen of these dandies would go
a long Way.

"Dear Anne Hirst: "I've been
going steady with a boy for
seven months; sometimes we've
double -dated with my best girl
and my friend's buddy,
"Now we aren't going steady
any more . . . My girl friend's
cousin came here to get a job
and they have taken an apart-
ment together. We met her at
church, and right away my
friend asked his buddy to get
him a date with her! They have
seen each other every night for
the past two weeks.
"What can I do? I still love
him. He hasn't come out and
said we are through; in fact,
1 haven't even seen him. What
do you think? He is 22 and I
am 18.

If we hadn't thought it be-
fore we would certainly realise
now that television is a great
medium for education. How else
could we have received such a
clear picture of what takes place
at the great party conventions
in the U.S.A,? Their system of
preparing for the election of a
government is so different from
our own that it is sometimes a
little difficult to understand.
But now, I for one. certainly
know more about it than I did
before. I might even offer a
little criticism -- but why
bother — what our friends
across the border do is entirely
their own affairs, so at Ginger
Farm we can just sit back and
remain interested onlookers. Of
course we got a little tired of
some of the speeches but yet
we couldn't drag ourselves away
from the TV, particularly on
Friday , night. Of course we
would have to have done so had
we been getting up with the
dawn as we used to do.. From
now on many of those at the
Democratic convention will be
to us, not merely names in the
news, but definite personalities.
And that, of course will apply
to Republican candidates too,
whose convention we shall
watch with equal interest. But
we are glad we don't have to
vote for either one side or the
other! President Eisenhower
has such a wonderful personali-
ty — but then we found our-
selves equally impressed with
Mr. Stevenson and Mr. Kelau-
ver. But we don't have to
make any decision so we can

Well, we hear on the radio
that harvest operations in On-

wonder where. In this district
most of the wheat has certain-
ly been threshed or combined
but spring crops are still stand-
ing -- and I expect most of the
farmers with spring crop are
praying that no big storm comes
along and knocks them flat be-
fore they are ready for the
hinder. In fact we know of some
farms where the crops have al-
ready suffered that fate. We
get such freakish storms these
days. Saturday we had just a
sprinkle of rain. Later when
Bob came up from Oakville he
reported the heaviest rain-
storm of the summer with a ter-
rific electrical storm, At the
construction plant lightning ran
along steel pipes, jumped from
one machine to another, gave
all the employees a scare and
yet no damage was reported
anywhere.
Today the weather is delight-
fully cool. In fact there is a
feeling of fall in the air. The
wind has a mournful sighing
sound; bluejays are sounding
forth with loud, unmusical
notes, and last night there was
a gorgeous sunset, unusual for
summer evenings. I suppose we
might learn more about what
the weather has in store for us

down by the creek that is load-

hickory nuts around here for

of choke -cherries too. Last
year there there wasn't one to

When Tommy Burns Lost The Title
Back on Dec, 26, 1908, fight-
ing before the greatest throng
that ever witnessed a boxing
contest in Australia, Jack John-
son, the heavyweight title chal-
lenger, beat Tommy Burns, the
champion,. in such a ferocious
and one-sided battle that Sid-
ney police had to stop the fight
and save the champ from his
gigantic Negro opponent.
Thus Johnson became the first
Negro to wear the heavyweight a
crown, a giant taking his place r
among giants that preceded him a
-Sullivan, Corbett, Fitzsimmons B
and JefYries.
Burns' only asset in the tight
was his gameness, and it was
the old story of a good little
man being defeated by a better e
and bigger opponent. Strong -
hearted and courageous, the
Canadian pugilist went down n
before the superior skill, strength bh
and prowess of a competitor cl
who outclassed him in every fu
physical respect, Out -weighed
by twenty-five pounds and shor- alai
ter by six il4ches than his op- Bu
ponent Burns was never able to sou
stand off the onslaughts of the
Negro, Seldom did he get an ing
opportunity to take the offense, Rin
and when he did, Johnson's ere
superior sparring ability and his
lightening -like elusiveness set to
at naught the bulldog rushes of ly
the chunky Canadian.
Johnson was the first to en-
ter the ring accompanied by his
seconds, Jack Mullins, Boer
Unholz and 13111 Lang, and his
manager, Sam Fitzpatrick, Burns
was accompanied by Pat
O'Keefe, Kid Keating, Billy
O'Donnell, Burke and Russell.
Both fighters received an enthu-
siastic reception, but Burns' was

champion's kidneys, The big
Negro showed by this time that
he,clearly outclassed his oppon-
ent, and Burns' backers were
astounded at Johnson's clever -
nes and speed, The men were
taunting each other almost in-
cessantly, and it was clearly a
grudge battle,
"Johnson easily maintained
his advantage in the fourth,
out -pointing the champion with
pparent ease. Burns again
ushed, only to be stopped by

wiIdly and many wide swings

be losing strength, but game -
stuck to his task, infighting
with fair success. In the last
minute Burns sank to the floor
under a succession of heavy
punches to his ribs. He was
grorushing when

the round. Johnson remorseles-
ly kept after the champion, and
in the next round continued to
administer the heavy swings
that were playing such havoc
with Burns. The champion was
fast wealcening, but he clearly
showed his nerve by leading
continually, although not suc-
cessfully, and taking without
flinching the terrific punishment
that the big Negro was inflict-
ing.
"Little fighting was done in
the ninth round, both men con-
tenting themselves with shout-
ing insults at each other. But in
the tenth Johnson resumed his
battering tactics and scored fre-
quently on the champion's head
and body. Burns landed several
punches, but as his blows clear-
ly lacked steam, the Negro only
laughed and bored in.
"The next round showed con-
clusively that the bout would
not go full time. Burns fought
gamely and essayed many
swings, but all were cleverly

The Police Gazette's Ringsider

Referee McIntosh therr3rd-
ed the decision to Johnsbn.
Thus ended Johnson's two-
year -chase of the' Canadian, in
which he demanded the privi-
lege of fighting for the honors
which Burns received in a most
unusual and somewhat ques-
tionable way, Burns taunted
Johnson with his color, demand-
ing that the Negro gain a repu-
tation, Still Johnson persisted
and followed Burns from Ame-
rica to England and from Eng-
land to Australia, Finally, cor-
nered in a far -distant point of
the earth Burns made terms the
like of which had never figured
in a world's championship
heavyweight battle in the past
- he was to get $30,000 of the
$35,000 purse, regardless of the
outcome of the battle.
The Negro agreed that since
Burns was the champion, his
terms must be met, And so
Johnson gave way, claiming
that the outcome would prove
his superiority, and his reward
would follow, even though
Burns was to receive more than
three-quarters of the purse.
So Johnson was vindicated,
and even Burns concealed that
he had met a better man. He
said after the battle; "I did the
best 1 could, I fought hard, but
Johnson was too big for me, 'and
his reach and defense was such
that I could not penetrate It and
strike a vulnerable point."
But•ns was really a pitiful
sight. Both eyes were blacken-

len to almost twice their normal
size, and he was stiff and sore in

0o Keepers Have Lots Of Troubles
lit you want a .nice quiet job,
free. from worries, don't run a
zoo,- Keeping several thousand
wild animals alive and well is
• job with plenty of headaches.
Some animals are very difficult
to keep, and demand the ut-
most care if they are to survive.
Take king penguins, those curi-
ously human birds that look so
much like dignified old waiters.
They come from the Antartic,
where they thrive in the great
wastes of ice and snow. Bring
them to another country and,
during the summer, they are al-
most overwhelmed by the heat.
After an acclimatizing period,
though, they get used to it, so
some zoos have managed to keep
a small flock; some have even
succeeded in rearing an occa-
sional chick, a pretty good ach-
ievement.
Until recently, however, the
New York Zoo was out of luck
with king penguins. The trouble
lay in the very high summer
temperatures. All kinds of things
were tried, even the frequent ad-
dition of blocks of ice to their
pool, but the results were always
disappointing Within a week or
two of the arrival of hot weather
the birds were dead.
Much thought was given to
the problem, because king pen-
guins are a most popular ex-
hibit, But it was not until just
after the war that someone had
the right idea. Why not build a
large refrigerator, similar to
those in which butchers keep
their meat fresh, and let them
live in that during the months
of hot weather?
So an experimental refriger-
ator was set up in the spring of
1948, It had observation win-
dows along the sides and a
small pond let into the floor.
Tarty in June three king pen-
guins that had arrived the pre-
vious autumn were placed in it
for a sort of summer holiday, and
to everyone's delight remained
at and thriving through the hot-
test weather.
Penguins are about the only
animals that find the British cli-
mate too warm for them. Polar
bears seem quite satisfied with
it, even on hot summer days.
Fortunately the majority of ani-
mals soon become accustomed to
a change of climate.
Many tropical animals can be
kept out of doors right through
the winter and seem to thrive
on it. At Whipsnade you can
watch lions playing in the snow
like kittens, and the tigers some-
times break the ice on their
bathing pond in order to have
a mid -winter dip,
Some animals from warm
countries, though, are extremely
sensitive to changes in climate.
Some of the most difficult of
these to keep are humming birds.
Among the most beautiful of
nature's creatures, they are well
worth the trouble of keeping
them alive in this country.
They are very tiny — some no
bigger than a large bee — and
they can only maintain their
high body temperatures if their
MERRY MENAGERIE

"He's getting rich! Gets paid
by the quart for trampling
grapes!"
surroundings are kept warm,
The humming bird house at the
London Zoo is kept at 75 deg, F.,
and even at this temperature
the tiny birds have -to . spend
much of their time feeding to
maintain body heat,
To give them plenty of time to
eat, the lights are left full on
until 8.30 at night. After that
blue lamps are switched on so
that any bird feeling hungry can
always feed. Even at 75. deg., a
fast of more than a few hours
can result in death from star-
vation.
Climate, though, is only one of
the zoo man's anxieties. Certain
animals are tricky to keep be-
cause they are food faddists.
Giant pandas must have plenty
of fresh bamboo shoots, and Aus-
tralia's delightful little Koala
bears demand eucalyptus leaves.
Bamboo shoots are scarce in this
country, and eucalyptus leaves
unobtainable in any quantity.
So giant pandas are not easy to
keep here, and koala bears im-
possible.
In the late summer of 1953 a
kiwi was flown over from New
Zealand as a Coronation gift to
the London Zoo from the New
Zealand Government. Its feeding
at once became a problem, not
so much for the Zoo keepers as
for the gardeners. Kiwis live
almost entirely on earthworms,
so the gardeners had to dig in
every available spot to supply
the new arrival with something
like 300 worms a day. Fortunate-
ly, after a few weeks they were
able to have regular supplies of
worms sent from Scotland.
A few years ago New York
Zoo faced a similar worm prob-
lem. In 1948 they received three
duck-billed platypuses, the curi-
ous Australian egg -laying ani-
mals that are now extremely
rare. To keep them going, the
Zoo had to find about 1,000
worms a day.
To meet this colossal demand,
a worm farm was set up in a
cellar beneath the lion house.
Here adult worms are kekt in
small breeding boxes filled with
rich soil, the temperature and
dampness of the boxes being
carefully regulated. Under
these conditions the worm eggs
take about three weeks to hatch,
when the wormlets are then
transferred to growing pits,
AU kinds of food for the
worms are added to the soil of
these pits. Fortunately, worms
are not fussy. They will thrive
on almost any kind of garbage.
Every day keepers are faced
with the tedious job of going
through some of the soil in these
pits and sifting it until they
have picked out 21/2 lb. of worms
—something like 1,000 average
size worms.
Sometimes animals develop in-
explicable food fads that can be
most irritating. Snakes are not
the sort of animals you might
expect to be temperamental, but
some of the large pythons in the
reptile house have occasionally
developed a most unusual food
preference.
These larger snakes are gen-
erally fed on freshly killed tame
rats. Now some pythons devel-
op a preference for rats of a
certain colour, so that one will
only eat white rats, while an-
other will look at nothing but
brown ones. Some really diffi-
cult individuals will not touch
rats at all, but will only eat
birds. Once it has made up its
mind a snake seems to stick to
its decision, These choosey in-
dividuals will starve to death
rather than eat anything other
than the food of their choice.
The largest meteorite on ex-
hibition, which weighs 361/2
tons, is now in the American
Museum of Natural History,
TRUCKIN' ON DOWN — Carlos Londono, his wife and four chil-
dren, and a 36 -year-old White truck finally arrived in Cleve-
land, Ohio, after nearly 27 months of travel through steaming
jungles, across plains and mountains from Bogota, Colombia.
Beginning in May, 1954, when Londono decided to head north,
tihe saga has included an attack by a jaguar in the jungles
of Costa Rica, crossing through a No Man's Land in a shooting
skirmish between Costa Rica and Nicaragua, a violent storm
that upset their truck, and two children born along the way.
The truck was plastered with advertisements en route to help
pay travel expenses. Having been nomads for so long, the
Londonos are planning to settle in Cleveland. He presented
the truck to the White Motor Co., with which he hopes to get
• lob as a machinist.

When Stars Fall
On 26 April, 1803, at one
o'clock in the afternoon, the in-
habitants of the little French
village of L'Aigle were disturb-
ed by, a 'strange sound. It was
not unlike a violent "roll of
thunder—yet the skies were al-
most cloudless, and there was no
sign of any storm in the vicinity.
As the " villagers rushed out of
their . houses in -alarm, they
caught sight of an immense ball
of fire darting across the sky,
and as it vanished from their
view there came a ' series of
violent explosions audible for
over fifty miles around. A few
minutes later, a great number
of stones fell to the earth, land-
ing at speeds great enough to
cause them to bury themselves
deeply in the ground.
Up to that time, the old stories
of atones from heaven" bad
been disregarded as strictly.non.
but th• L!Aigle affair
could •not . be explained , away,
Jean - Baptiste - Blot, •.one of
. France's .p leading 'r astronomers, "
was sent to • the: village .oto draw
up .a report,;.BIot .was suitably
conscientious, .' He ` "interviewed
witnesses, collected all the facts
he could; and -- most important
of all - recovered some of the
strange stones , that had fallen.
The heaviest of them weighed
11/2 pounds .
Further research into the na-
ture of ordinary meteors, Or
shooting -stars, `provided a clear
answer,' Meteors, ranging from
gigantic masses weighing many,
tons down to tiny particles
smaller than sand -grains; re-
volve round the Sun just as the
planets do; though in orbits that
are generally more elliptical, So
long as they keep in airless
space, they are safe, as there is
nothing to impede their move-
ment; but if they venture too
close to the Earth, and are drawn
"downwards" by the -_powerful--•_.. ,
gravitational pull, friction is set
up, and heat results .
Over a hundred years after
L'Aigle, an even greater monster
landed in Northern Siberia. It
was fortunate that Siberia is:not
a densely populated place; , , .
about mid-day on 30 June, 1908,
a bluish disk about half the size
of the Moon appeared in the
sky, . accompanied by a terrific
noise like a cannonade. This was
followed by, an explosion audible
hundreds • of miles away," and
trees were blown flat for ,a dis-
tance of Fifty miles round the
spot where the impact occurred,
seared by heat and stripped of
their bark and branches ...
Ordinary shooting -stars have
.been known from ancient, times.
Now and then, magnificent dis-
plays are seen, and A.D. 902 was
named the Year of the Stars, be-
cause on one night "there were
seen lances, an infinite number
of stars, which scattered them-
selves like rain 'to the right and
the left". The showers of 1202,
1368 and 1833 were no less re-
markable, while another major
display occurred in 1799. Sig-
nificantly, all these showers oc-
curred in the month of Novem-
ber, as did . the lesser but still
brilliant display of 1866. It be-
came clear that this was no mere
coincidence. Every November,
the earth approached a shoal of
meteors, and once in 33-1/3 year:
passed right through . the . thick•
est part of the celestial swarm.—

We hear so much these days
about modern methods on the
fans that sometimes it comes
as a pleasurable ohage .to recall
the times when farming wasn't
quite so .efficient, perhaps, but
they "got there just the same":
Writing " i n The Christian
Science Monitor, John Gould
tells about how his grandfather
used to farm,.
• • •
usvd.to-say that a man
couldn't work out and farm, a
statement : which, in spite of
some modern evidence to 'the
contrary, I believe to be so. This
didn't include "changing, work'
or working out your. taxes —
for that was merely helping
yourself at the same time.
Gramp would wag his head
when he heard that somebody
had gone to teaming, or was off
cutting wood by the cord, It
took all your time and all your
energie,t to keep your head.afloat
on your own place, and every
day you spent away, from it, cost
you, and you'd never earn it
back. Gramp didn't believe that
you could rationalize cash in
hand a.; profit when it took you
• away from your own interests'
`to get it.
There is a great deal to mull
over in the old fellow's attitude,
Except by . changing work he
never labored a day off the old
farm, and his days were long.
He kept laboring when he was
old and there were no demands
on him, He could have relaxed
his, latter ten years and given the
rocking chair a good ride and
nobody would have said a word.
But he had a way of looking at
things, and he . wouldn't see any
security in working for some-
body else — not for him, any-
way. He might see some secur-
ity for the other fellow.
I've never known anybody
who worked harder than Gramp,
although he sometimes did things
the ,hard way and bull -horsed
through in spite of himself.
Many a time, when daylight was
still a brand-new experience to
the morning, I'd be ticking them
off under the covers and wake
to hear Gramp saying, "Now, I've
milked and put out the cows, and
had breakfast, and I'm going up
to cultivate the, peas, so you lay
abed as long as you want." It
was so, and I'd get up after a
time and along about noon would
have dinner ready when he came
in from the field.
He never had too much luck
inculcating into me the great
principles of his program, al-
though I did my share when jobs
were to be done, and learned
much that he probably thought
I missed,
One of my greatest services
to hint' would be with that extra
pair of hands so often needed.
A.man can work alone up to a
J� point, and then he'll find him -
devising some wa do --i
thing t oul easy if he
had help. No ody would know,
unless he's done it, how helpless
a man is when he's trying to fit
a kingpin in and can't line the
holes up. It happens to me with
the tractor hitch, and to every-
body who does such work. You
strain one way, and brace an-
other, and push and pull, and
then when ,you get the place
ready you can't do anything
about the pin.
• One time Cramp went up in
the far field for a small load of
scatterings, and he turned the
horses too sharply and. sprung
his front wheels loose. The load
was really quite good-sized and
he was up against a problem. ,

First, he had to unhitch the team
because the jolt had frightened
them and they were standing on
their hind legs and pawing the
air and squealing — not an un-
usual routine for 'Gramp's style
of horse. He hitched them to a
fence then studied his situation.
He had a choice — he could
unpitch the load and Ilt the
wheels together easily, thus de-
ferring the work over a whole
afternoon, or he could fit , the
wheels back with the load still
on the rack, making a quick
burst of strength save him all
the, work. with the fork, .
He decided to do it the fast
way, so he rolled a rock about
'the size of a washtub from the
wall, and went over to his fence -
post project and brought a couple
of stout spruce poles. He put in
one pole and pried the rack up,
holding it up by standing on the
pole. Then he fitted in the other
pole, and found he could brace
the front wheels back into line
all right.
If anything had slipped my
grandfather would have been
catapulted three farms away,
but nothing slipped. He eased
the two poles off and walked up
to the house, where I'was sand-
papering a crate of eggs, and
had me come down with him
and fit the pin in. 'I asked him
what he'd have done if I hadn't
been handy, and he said my
proximity dissipated any neces-
sity of pondering the matter,
but probably he'd have made out
by working a third pole with his
teeth.
Nowadays, with newer ideas of
organization a n d cooperation
and specialization, a simple mat-
ter like putting a hayrack to-
gether could involve a dozen
men, and no tricks. It isn't so
necessary any more to do things
alone, because nowadays people
will work out.
Every so often I find myself
at some absurdity which snakes
Inc think of some of Gramp's
old ideas. He got his jobs done
by using the facilities he had
and improvising for those he
lacked.
One time he felled a tree into
another tree, and when he hook-
ed the oxen on to pull it free the
thing gave a twitch and stood
on the other end and jerked the
oxen off the ground by their
necks. I might point out that
this was not necessarily an un-
usual situation. It may be more
drastic, but it isn't essentially
different from things that hap-
pen on a farm all the time. If
Gramp had been off working
for somebody else, it wouldn't
have happened, but it did hap-
pen, and it posed a problem that
-needed immediate solution.
I have no idea what I'd have
done, or what anybody else
would have pn-e;• -but, _Cramp
grabbed his—cant dog and rolled
' sorne logs in below the dangling
front feet of the cattle, and he
had them standing up like
trained elephants on circus tubs
while he went up the tree and
sawed the butt' off, When the
butt fell free he had to jump
clear, and he showed me the
jump and it was a dandy, about
thirty-five feet into a blackberry
jungle ,and 'atter that he had
an awful tim . .convincing the
oxen it was all right now to back
down. He finished the job he
was at before he came up to
supper.
Anyway, Gramp never worked
a day off his own farm, and was
always his own boss and his own
'security — and his own philoso-
pher.

Catch The Big Ones In The Fall
If Labor Day marks the end
of your fishing season, you're
making a big mistake because
early September raises the cur-
tain on some of the best fishing
of the year — in both fresh and
salt water.
,You may pick July and Aug-
ust "to get away from it all"
and cool off, but for the fish it's
hot, and these are the poorest
months to catch 'em for the
scorching sun has warmed up
the lakes and streams, and the
fish are off their feed, lying in
the shade of rocks or seeking
the cooler depths. Even in the
ocean these are the doldrum
months.
Of course, yon can catch 'em
then; might even be a fair
catch, too — it you've got the
right tackle and know the tricks
of hot -weather angling. But at
best, it's spotty and you've got
to have a lot of patience. •
But come the crisp Septem-
ber nights, the waters cool off,
and the fish come to the sur-
face, ravenously hungry after
the summer layoff and biting
like crazy to put on fat for the
lean winter days ahead.
That's why I've been an
autumn fisherman for years, and
when I see •the hills flame crim-
son and gold, I know that the
trout and salmon have come up
from the mid -summer depths to
cruise the ricky shoreline in
search of smelt. They have run
up the Kennebago and Cupsup-
tic Rivers, South Bog and
Rangeley Stream, In Steep
Landing Pool, Screw Augur,
Gravel Bank and a score of
pools 'besides, they are rising
splashlli to ,dry flies, something
you'll 401ilo h see in spring —
and meg lir summer.
May ?yWt can't take a fall
vacatiOb, 3ttittithere's sure plenty
of fistiiing around anybody's
home at this season. It doesn't
matter what the local species
are — trout, bass, pike, wall-
eyes, muskies — they all feed
acvtively in autumn.
Trout fishing, for example, is
so good in the fall that practi-
cally all state fish and game de-
partments now have extended
the season well into October.
The sensonal trout fishing
cycle in Long Pond on Cape Cod
is typical. In spring when the
ice goes out, the anglers rush in,
some days poor, and so it goes
some days poor, and it goes
while trout and anglers gradu-
ally taper off till early June.
By late June the warns waters
have sent the surviving trout
into the cool de -Ails. A few are
still erected by die-hard anglers
dragging a series of metal flash-
ers on wire line 80 feet below
the surface, but during July and
August, when the vacationers
are many, the catches are few
and far between, writes Ted
Janes in "The Police Gazette,"
Comes Labor Day. The vaca-
tioners depart, and the local
anglers break out their .tackle.
They know that during the next
two months the trout will be
back near the susface, chasing
schools of baby herring through
the shallows, On spinning lures
and streamers, cast or trolled
along the shoreline they'll catch
bright -spotted brown trout and
vividly -striped rainbows up to
6 pounds in weight. And they'll
have the lake pretty much to
themselves!
Just last week I fished there
and took some fair-sized trout,
But the old, seasoned big fish
were conspicuously absent.
"Come back in October if you
want to catch them," a local
ex,.crt told Inc. "Fish the west
shore in the late afternoon, and
you'll find 'em"
I'll be there!
The same thing is true of
bass, In many states, especially
in northern sections where these
fish spawn its May or June, the
bass season doesn't open till
July 1. The fishing is good for
the first week or two, and then
deteriorates, not because the
bass have been caught, but be-
cause they become logey and
listless during the hot summer.
But since bass are by nature
warm water fiish, they continue
'to feed actively through the
warm months, especially large-
mouth bass, which are partial to
shallow, weedy • waters. But
largemouth and smallmouth,
too, seek the cool depths during
muggy summer weather. That's
why night is the best time to
fish for bass during this time of
year. But even then the fishing
is slow compared to that in the
fall.
Cool autumn waters perk up
the bass's appetite and put an
edge on his fighting spirit,
You'll find him along the shore-
line all day, feeding heavily on
frogs, minnows, crawfish and
insects.
Fall fishing is especially good
in the South, where summer
temperatures wilt both fisher-
men and fish. Since fish spawn
earlier and grow more rapidly
there, many southern states
have no closed season on bass,
But this doesn't mean that the
fishing is equally good thruogh
the year.
Winter is the poorest time.
Then in spring there's a feed-
ing spree which makes for a
period of fast fishing. In July
and August come the doldrums,
followed by the cooling autumn,
which, as any guide around the
Florida creeks or the TVA lakes
will tell you, is the top season.
The pike family, though a
warm water species, is espe-
cially susceptible to heat. You
can catch pickerel and northern
pike through the ice with some
regularity, but it's a tough job
coaxing them out of the pad
beds on a torrid August day.
The pike's lack of appetite its
summer stems from the same
feeling of inertia and listless-
ness which overtakes sweltering
htuntans, but during September
and October he makes up for
his summer layoff by chewing
up everything its sight, Fall is
when the big fish come to net,
too.
Last September a companion
and I fished a local lake along
with two other frineds in an-
other boat. In less than an hour
a big pickerel hit my partner's
trolled spinner. It weighed 51
pond:, a good-sized pickerel in
any water. We kept quiet, in-
tending to surprise our friends
at lunch, but they surprised us
instead, They had a 53/4 -pound-
er!
It's the same with muskies.
They go on a hunger strike dur-
ing the summer so that you can
only tease a- few of them out of
the tule beds at dawn and near
dusk with plugs and spoons.
But year in and year out the
heavy catches come in June and
again during September and
October, when the biggest fish
come to gaff.
In salt water it's the same.
The mid -summer doldrums, fol-
lowing some fast June and early
July fishing, are well known to
surfcasters and charter boat
skippers out for striped brass,
mackerel, bluefish and tuna.
These are all migratory fish, and
when they turn southward in
autumn, feeding as they go, the
panic is on, One day last Octo-
ber two surfmen on the beach at
Wellfieet, Cape Cod, took 96
stripers to a 45 -pound top.
Here are some records kept
by a Cape skipper on last year's
results:
"Bluefish arrived in mid-
August and by the 27th were
overrunning the bay, continu-
ing into the late fall. . , . Tuna
late, first one caught August
29th. Starting the first of Sep-
tember, tuna, bluefish and srip-
ers were all hitting hard and
continued to do so well into
October."
Charles Church's 73 -pound
stripped bass, still a world's
record on rod and reel, was
caught off Cuttyhunk on an Oc-
tober day back in 1913.
And so it goes.
That's why I say it's too bad
that so many fishermen end the
season on Labor Day and miss
the big autumn round -up. Act-
ually, Labor Day should be con-
sidered the mid-season marker;
a sort of second opening day,
signalling the start of some fast
and furious sport,

James 2:1-13
Memory Selection; My brethren,
have not the faith of our Lord
Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory,
with respect of persons. James
2:1.
The ground is very level
around the cross. Your talents,
social standing or wealth do not
place you above your brethren
in Christ. Any minister or church
which sets itself to cater to any
particular class of people to the
exclusion of others is not Chris-
tian. A card just received from
friends travelling in USA has
a picture of Moody Memorial
Church. Its main auditorium has
over 4,000 seats On the picture
are the words of D, L. Moody:
"Ever welcome to this House of
God are Strangers and the
Poor."
James writes, "If ye fulfill the
royal law accordng to the scrip-
ture, Thou shalt love thy neigh-
bour as thyself, ye do well: but
if ye have respect to persons, ye
commit sin, and are convinced
of the law as transgressors." In
larger towns where one relig-
ious denomination has two
churches there often develops a
social distinction. The well-to-
do are linked with the one
church and the poorc. people
with the other. This is unfor-
tunate. There should be no caste
system in the Christian church.
The pour should be welcome and
feel at home in any church.
James asks, "Hath not God cho-
sen the poor of this world rich
in faith, and heirs of the king-
dom which he hath promised to
them that love him?"
Jesus was the friend of the
poor. He deliberately chose to
be born into a poor home. He
could have turned stones into
gold for himself but he didn't.
Jesus had no envy or antagonists
toward the rich, He loved the
rich young ruler and he dined
with rich Zacchaeus. He was ac-
cessible to all. We should fol-
low his example.
To show deference to the rich
is to evaluate men on the basis
of what they have and not of
what they are. It is to put
material and temporal things
above human character, which is
eternal.
