III I was upon a beautiful morning
that we started from the Koscius-
ko hotel for the upper waters of
III the Snowy. Our packs and tents
had been got ready overnight, and
by five o'clock we were making our
mile an hour, single file, over a rough
track that only an Australian bush
man could fnd-and keep. Through a
mass of underground and tangle OF
scrub we eventually reached the
shoulder of a ridge, and got a peep
at Kosciusko, still partially nov
clad, fifteen miles away; then we be-
gan our descent Of some three thou
sand feet to the river, in many places
almost sheer down. By lunch time
we were cutting our tent poles on a
small sheltered clearing, to the music
of a huge body of water laundering
over the rocks in such a volume as to
suggest rapidly melting snow on the
uplands. 1t was pretty evident that
there was too much water, SO We
spent the afternoon In catching bee
ties and insects, and comparing them
with our English flies. We got many
species of a flying ant, dun, blue,
green and occasionally barred, like a
zebra, in clear-cut bands of black and
yellow; flying grasshoppers an inch
and a half long. brown in appearance
when at rest, and canary-color when in
fight; another much smaller, with
bright crimson inside the legs; but
everywhere color, almost bizarre, pre-
dominating. / have noticed the anne
conditions when fishing other sno
waters. The Tasmanian Great Lake
has a similar variety of brightly col
ored insects.
At five o'clock next morning / was
at a bend where the river widened out
and ran quietly over a shingle bed,
some distance from the fall lower
down. The mist was still rising from
the water as i made my first cast.
1t was cold and raw, but as the spot
was a good one, / moved very little
until the first CLINT of sun dispersed

a powerful fish. The bushes right
down to the waters edge forced me
farther into the river, then, with moth
ing but a fine sheet Of water between
us, we began the fight. The fish came
up stream and f1ashed past me and
into the fast water It once; before 1t

Pennington vas lying in state in his
church, the statue was unveiled al
night by the donor and sculptor, Percy
Fitzgerald.
Today the bronze image of the
worthy doctor may be seen looking
down his beloved Fleet street. The
strongly-marked features and burly
form, from the full bottomed wig to
the firmly-planted shoes, have been
family suggested by Mr.. Fitzgerald,
with the air of Sir. Joshua Reynolds
portrait and the bust by Nollekens.
Boswell and Mrs. Thrale have their
place in the bas-reliefs on the pedestal.
What DR.. Johnson would have said
about this statue of him can be mag
ined by any one who RS seer it. AS
a work of art the statue is an atrocity;
and it seems most appropriate that it
should have been unveiled at night.
Furthermore, even the best examples
Of the sculptor's art, Johnson was apt
to disparage. The labor consumed in
painting, he once said, was not dis
proportionate to the result; but a fell
low slight hack half a year at a block
of marble and only produce something
that hardly resembled a man. The
value of statuary, he argued, depend

On the other hand, 1t might have
pleased Johnson to know that poster
ity would in a special way associate
his name with a place of worship that
he so regularly attended.

ing camp, and we had fish for break.
fast.
On that and ten succeeding delight
full days our spirits rose as the river
fell. Twenty fish were killed by my
friend one morning, in water that only
a strong fisherman could stand in.
None of them were under a pound.
The best fish we took turned the scale
at eight pounds. This capture, az
we'll as a brace of six pounds each,
and another pair of FIVE pounds each,
we were so fortunate as to be able to
send ID the manager of the Kosciusko
hotel.
A fortnight later we took the track
leading to the Thredbo, a smaller
river running into the Snowy, many
miles below where we were fishing.
We had four days of it, and took a
number of fish, some up to three
pounds, but a severe thunderstorm
spoiled our chances somewhat before,
and certainly after.
The stocking of the Snowy river and
it's tributaries was not undertaken, it
seems, until the late eighties, when
Mr.. John Gale liberated a few rain
bow yearling. The reports were so
good concerning their progress that
the government was induced to estab.
lish h~atcheries, in the first instance
at Prospect Reservoir, seven miles
from Paramatta, from where fry and
yearling were dispatched every season
to the various rivers. AS a result
there is sport to be obtained In the
Monaro district the equal of which
cannot be got anywhere else in Au.
stralia.
Both the New South Wales fisheries
department and the government are
highly commended for their work of
the past twenty years, and It is to be
sincerely hoped that, having achieved
so much for the state, they will adj
vance a step farther and protect the
fish it has cost so much to intro
duce. Incredible as 1t may seem, there
are no fishing licenses and no range
on any of the rivers. Victoria, the
~neighboring state, stocked many
rivers by both private enterprise and
at government expense, but they
failed to protect the fish after put
ting them in. There is very little
trout fishing in Victoria today.
New Zealand and Tasmania each
have fishing licenses and laws. What
is more, they enforce them. In my
opinion, it is possible for New South
Wales to do this year or next what
will prove a very difficult task later
on.
The summit of Mount Kosciusko
(7,328 feet) is the highest point In
Australia. This is the source of the
Snowy. There is a fine motor road
to the top of the peak. Snow is lying
on some part of this mountain nearly
all the year round, and the number of
visitors is increasing ~perceptibly
every year.
