According to reports received from To-
cal fishing circles, the man who goes
trout fishing stands good chance of
coming back without any shoes. On

the greater portion Of them. On the same
day "Billy" Lamoreaux cached his light
shoes under a log on Hickory creek,
replacing them with wading boots.
When he returned he found no yestige of
any shoes and the probabilities are that
they were discovered and appropriated
by tramp. He was accompanied on
The trip by j. b. Foraker, and between
them they brought home 40 trout.-Oil
