Frank NJ Freyschlag went fishing
during the past week, which explains
why SO many of his friends had trout
for breakfast yesterday morning.
1t is said that some of our local
fishermen had bacon for breakfast out
on Rock creek last Sunday morning
Fishing was fairly good, and having
selected a member of the party. to pre-
pare breakfast he repaired to camp with
the fish about three or four pounds and
fried them in the best style known to
modern cookery. In order to season
them just right he was obliged to taste
OF one occasionally, and when the other
members of the party returned they ac-
cused him of eating all the fish. AS
defense the cook claimed that he had
only eaten tail and that the fish had
been absorbed by the bacon. The boys
had to make the best of it and relish
bacon for their breakfast. but the cook
story was accepted as rather 'fishy"
and he was relieved from further duty.
