OME ten years ago, in the late summer, 1 was paddling across a mirror-lik- e pond in the woods of Maine. It was a pond famous for its lighting trout and their skill in evading the angler's lure. For an hour or so I had cast in vain, and then suddenly from behind s d a groat fish rose and struck at my dry fly with that rush which never fails to thrill the anglers heart, no matter how many times he may have seen it When the .fish wearied, 1 drew it toward the boat. Thats too fine a fish to kill so late in the season," I said. Ill slack line and let him escape." I slacked die line, but nothing happened. my 1 was forced to net the fish and extract the hook, which was deeply embedded in its tongue. Even though the hook was released as gently as possible it was no use. When 1 put the fish back in the water ha sank, belly upward, to the bottom. 1 can't so on killing No more fishing for me today," I thought. fish that 1 dont want to keep." It was soon after this that a veteran angler introduced me to the barbless hook. . . . It is a curious thing that so many anglers who have had no experience with the harhless hook regard it as the hobby of extremists. It is nothing of the kind. It is a serviceable aud effective angling instrument which not only protects the fish that are returned to the water but also teaches anglers better angling practice. With the barblcss hook a slack line means a greater chance to lose the fish. Careless habits, of which anglers who never use anything but barbed hooks are too frequently guilty, are almost imjxsible with the barbless hook. 1 know nothing other than the barbless hook which teaches both good sportsmanship and good technique. If we are to preserve our angling for future generations, we must see to it not only that our bag limits are reasonable in size but also that the fish which are not creeled but which are returned to the water should be given a fair chance to live and propagate their kind. I sincerely hook a fair trial will believe that all good sportsmen who give the barblcss never return to the barbed variety. lily-pa- Remember philosophy Is a Remember It good thing. takes his patients as well ae yours this marriage game.

When It comes to matters of superstition the savages and ourselves are dose akin. The primitivism persisting in our minds works In harmony with the primitive', mind of the savage, and through that savage and his customs we get an Idea of the workings of the minds of nnr primitive ancestors and of the origin of the superstitions which we have inherited from them. A favorite way among many savage peoples today of causing rain to fall Is to pour water Into pots, at the same time Imploring the rain god to send the showers.

New Netherlands Folk Not Seeking Liberty That Was to Be Had at Home i By MRS. JOHN KING VAN RENSSALAER, in The Social Udder."

As a matter of fact this is not a scientific age. Although moderu science has made a scientific civilization possible, in our collective management of human life we are guided not by scientific knowledge, but by blind superstition. There is no scientific basis for the belief that human society is evolving into a better state. Society is not an organism and cannot evolve. Man is evolving, but he may have to go back to savagery in order to continue hia evolution. Savagery produced great men. It weeded out the unfit and only the greatest survived. It was in the jungle that man developed those qualities of leadership which made it possible for him to establish civilization. But our civilization has made it possible for the weaklings to surrive. to Eventually it traded to destroy leadership. We transferred authority the weak and nnintelligrat and called the deal democracy. |
