Reports Received Regarding tn
North Carolina Waters.

Letters received by fish dealers at this
city from shippers in North Carolina re-
port that the outlook for catching bass
In the waters of that state is poor. The
bass season in North Carolina opens Oc-
tober 20. and in Virginia five days later
AS yet the indication in Carolina waters
for a good bass year are poor. and it is
made more so by the fact that many of
the streams in which bass were formerly
caught in haul seines are now so full of
grass as to prevent the working of the
nets. making the catch of the fish de-
pendent on hook-and-line fishing.
The outlook for wild ducks and geese
In Carolina waters. whence comes most
of the supply used here. Is said to be
good. as the recent cool weather is caus-
ing the birds TO appear in numbers on

HONORS TO CANS AND GALuHER
RECEIVE GIFTS OF LOVING CUP
AND CHAFING DISH SET.
Col. Randle Discusses "Good Citizen
ship''-President GUIDE CompH-
ments Floral Officials.

Isaac Cans and William T. Galliher
were surprised last night at the Cham
Der of Commerce, the former with a
loving cup and the latter with a chatting
dish set, the gifts of the committee which
had In charge the details of the recent
auto-fioral parade. Mr.. Cans was chair
man of the committee and Mr.. Galliher
raised money for 1t. Addresses were
made by William F. Guide and Col. A. E.
Randle. Mr.. GUIDE said:
ut is my very pleasant duty to say to
you that the members Of this committee,
no less than the other members of the
Chamber of Commerce, have felt from
the outset that your services as chairman
have merited not merely the resolution
passed at the general meeting last night,
but specific token of our appreciation.
In this cup, which 1 hand you, we ex-
press the belief that the success of the
auto floral parade was due to the untiring
energy. the nasterly executive ability
and tactful diplomacy displayed by the
chairman of the committee
That Modest Mr.. Cans.
Mr.. Cans in his reply laid all the sue
cess of the parade at the feet of his fell
low-committeemen.
CAS- I used to assure you. gentlemen,
the parade would be a big Success" he
said. II remember thinking to myself
that l had marvellous nerve. You were
doing all the work-perfec1ng all the de-
tails-whie all 1 did was to sit In a
chair and tell you that things were going
smoothly.
II cannot find words to express my
gratitude for this gift and it will be one
of the treasures which will remain with
me throughout my life"
"Good Citizenship" His Topic.
Col. Randle's speech was on Good
Citizenship
ed citizen in Washington and in the states
is very great" he said. lone is voter
and the other is not. A citizen in the Dis
trict of Columbia, such as John Joy Ed
son, who says every business man owes
part of his time to the public, and who
gives the same, as Mr.. Edison does, Is a
public benefactor. He is prompted only
by the highest motives that make good
citizen, and the nation owes to the ag-
gressive and progressive citizens Of Wash
ington, who are doing SO much to build
up the National Capital, debt of graft
tude which will last as long as the Ma
tional Capital remains in the District of
Columbia, which will be forever.
ION the other hand, the citizens of the
states have a right to vote, which gives
them great power, which is felt nowhere
more than in this city.
Therefore. such citizens as Mr.. Cans,
who is ever ready to respond to the call
for public duty. is to be commended and
applauded in his efforts to build up the
National Capital, which is the common
property of every American citizen"
the chafing dish set was presented to
Mr.. Galliher by Mr.. Cans. After a speech
OF thanks, Mr.. Galliher presented re-
port of the finances of the parade.
