What an influence associations some
times exert on ones life. This is at
least the opinion which an Augusta
young man entertains. or did entertain.
up to Wednesday night. for after
lahoriously crawling out of bed yester-
day morning, he regretted certain hap
pcnings Of the day before, and when he
had finally wendell his way dow town
to the store. during which trip he was
reminded at every step that he was no
longer a school boy. he announced that
many winters would come and go be-
fore he allowed himself to be influenced
by others again. 1t all came about in
this way. Some of the young mans
associates in the store are inveterate
fishermen, and during the fishing sea-
sens. both winter and spring. he lives
in an atmosphere permeated with fsh
stories. Telling fish stories is better
than talking about ones neighbors.
and are generally interesting, even
though they are not always founded on
fact. And the young man. who never
caught a fish in his life. as he listened
10 the tales. felt a growing desire TO go
"a -fishin'." That desire attained It's
growth one day this week. when one OF
the other men in the store went out to
the lake and got two trout. That set
tied the young man, and Wednesday
afternoon he clothed himself in apprO-
pr;ate regalia, and started for the lake
What he did during the afternoon has
rot vet been prepared for publication.
though 1t undoubtedly will be. but 1t
can be briefly stated that he did not
come home empty handed, for while he
caught no trout, he brought home the
finest specimen of mud turtle that has
been seen. this year. He will not go
a fter trout again. and as soon as he
yets over the lameness caused by this
trim. he intends to write story on
"Trout Fishing: What 1t Appears to be,
