Show Something Like a Fish Story. Lying between two hills not far from Hughcsvlllo, Pcnn., Is a small body ot water known as "Converse's Ico dam," or "fish dam," that Is so full of tho finny trlbo that apparently It is impossible for a fish flvo inches long to swim straight, Tho small fish aro on top and tho largo ones below, and In ordor for a fisherman to get tho bait down to tho big fellows it Is necessary to mako a nolo In tho wator and' carefully drop tho hook down through tho wriggling mass. On Juno 1 Mrs. Irvln Converso and Miss Gladys Koch were at tho dam making determined effort to hook some ot tho under ones. Tho llttlo fellows on top, howovor, mado such flerco attacks on tbjo bait that their hooks, tlmo after ttmo, wero Instantly Instant-ly cleared as soon as thoy touched the water. Many of tho llttlo fellows woro pulled out In order to make room for tho hooks, but tho task had not been accomplished whon tho reportor loft tho scene. Wllllnmsport Sun. |
