LONG BEACH, Aug. 11.-Rivalry at
seem things" is becoming almost n
serious matter with the captains or
the various fishing boats, who, by their
tales of strange sights and wondertui
adventures, seek to swell their passen-
ger lists for the daily trips to the
banks.
For many moons Capt. BILLY" Graves,
owner of the Twilight and the Tourist,
was in a class by himself. He was a
fearless propagation of fearful tales
which, by the way, no one has ever
proved untrue.
He saw sunfish weighing hundreds OF
pounds; he caught so many fish he had
to throw dozens overheard; he sighted
strange creatures no other mariner mas
ever reported having seen, hereabouts
or elsewhere.
One of Graves greatest finds was
that of a mountain in the sea, upon the
crest of which his fishing boat came
near going aground while sailing a
score of miles from any visible snore'
This mountain top was not marked IA
any staple fashion and, strange to re-
late, has never been discovered by any
other voyager of the deep.
Capt. Art Paschall, owner OF the
Eagle, also became famous for what
his keen brown eyes saw in the ocean,
and for his luck and ill-luck as fisher-
man. .
Paschall sighted numerous sunnsh Oh
gigantic proportions last summer, anu
when attempting to stab one with a
boat-hook it swished its tail with suci,
force that the boat-hook was prusheu
aside violently and the captains wris'
was badly sprained.
Paschalls boat was the nemesis ol
many a flying fish. These creatures
frequently attempted to fly across the
Eagle. struck against her rigging anu
fell stunned, squirming helplessiy upon
the deck.
OF late new boat. the Seabrignt,
Capt. w. r. Swickard, has gone INTO
the business Swickard has proven
himself foeman worthy OF the OPP
position of even such old timers as
Graves and Paschall He has reported
catches of enormous punches OF nnny
specimens and during the past Week.
with the assistance of his engineer, the
well known Bert Moody has sighted
some .'whoppers," including twenty
foot sunfish. weighing at least Two
tons" and others equally as good.
Capt Graves has been apparently a
bit disgruntled by these reports from
the Seabright and other boats, and has
stated that IF the fishermen are going
to begin exaggerating and stretching
Ithings'' he will not only be sorry but
will hesitate to give to the public the
stories of his own discoveries and ac-
complishments in the briny deep.

Do Much; Seek Much

This after all, is the great law of
life; use the ability you have and you
will have more; fail to use what you
have and you will have less Use the
physical strength that you now have and
you will have more for the task of to-
morrow. Men are required to do that for
which they have no present ability be-
cause God has made provision for the
enlargement of our means and powers
as the emergency demands. In many in
stances the endowment of power comes
after the obligation is assumed. This is
equally true, mentally and morally.
1.-THE power of a life or character for
good is increased by undertaking great
and noble deeds for mankind. The simp-
lest, most effective Christian life is that
which does its duty day by day, and
rests on this confidence-that God will
give the needed strength for every duty
