FISHING SEASON.
To, be pitied is the man who at
this season of the year does not res—
pond in spirit at leastto a faint luring
voice which calls him away Prem
depressing cares and throng streets
to the place where the sun shines
warm and the currents awurl and
eddy amid ;t lacework of shadows
cast by seva,ping over hanging boughs
and where the minnows nibble now
•,nd then at ,e warm baited hook.
lie is to be pitied became it is very
clearly manifest that he's so hardened
in soul as to he indifferent to the
supreme joy of boyhood . A
perpetual responsiveness to the goin'
a fishin' spirit is the mark of a healthy
and progressive age. Pay nu
attention whatever to the man who
would link laziness and fishing. Shun
the man who thinks that the latter
joy is primitive and undignified for a
real man. The boys, yes, numbers of
men, too, have been fishing here for
suckers and catfish the past week.
