WE'LL SATISFIED WITH PRESENT La

WE'LL SATISFIED WITH PRESENT LAW
Editor NEwTowN BEE, Dear Sir:
l have read with interest the different
articles printed in The BEE in regard
to taking bass from Waramaug Lake
l was one of the many that were at
the lake on the I'd of July, when the
waters were free for everybody to fish
in, and caught bass under 10 inches
and willingly threw them back into
the lake. And that is what the law
says; throw them back SO they can
grow larger. The law is protective,
and where would we be If it was not
for protective laws? Where would our
game be ii it was not for the law?
Simply this: There would be no game
in short time; it would be all killed.
There are few deer in this state, but
how long would there be any IL it was
not for the law which puts heavy
penalty for killing them? And SO with
the bass, that the State and Mr. BlakeS-
ley are trying to stock the lake with.
Instead Of complaining of the law, let
US hold up both hands with delight
and thank the state for what they are
doing, even giving us the fun of catch
ing the fish. And all they ask of US
is, IL they are under 10 inches long, put
them back. AS to any complaint of
the law as being unjust, I think it is
one OF the most consistent laws in the
statutes Respectfully yours,-[F. N.

''DAD's' BIRTHDAY,-19O6.
Here's to our good old soldier,
The man with the wooden leg,
Who gave his blood for his country,
And went for years on peg.
The time is fast approaching
When his birthday comes again;
We wish him good luck, for he's got
pluck,
In sunshine and in rain.
So we'll unite the Nations holiday,
With his birthday, 1t being 30 near;
As the busy life of the other day
Would prevent our meeting here.
To show our respect for dear old Dad,
Whom We ever found kind and true
And We know he was always loyal
To the old ''red, white and blue"
So we've made him the nations EN-.
blems,
On ground of purest white,
To recall the bloodshcd crimson,
On the "blue" in the thick Of the
fight.
We hope he'll accept this birthday
OF the fiags and badges gay,
And while he remembers the "boys In

Making old Potatoes New.

This is the way new potatoes are
manufactured in Paris: Old potatoes,
the cheapest and smallest that can be
purchased. are bought by the raisto-
leurs de pommes de terre. as they are
called, who carry their property to the
banks of the Seine, a good supply Of
water being necessary. The potatoes
are put into tubs half filed with water:
then they are vigorously stirred about
by the feet and legs of the manufac-
turers. who roll up their trousers and
stamp on the raw potatoes until they
have not only completely rubbed off
their dark skins, but have also given
them that smooth and satin-like ap-
pearance which Is so much appreciated
by gormands. They are then dried.
neatly wrapped in paper and arranged
in small baskets, which are sold at the
m~archands des comestibles for 5 francs
apiece. The oldest part Of the whole
business is that the raistoleurs make
no secret OF their trade.
