Spring Fever is Prevalent Now.

Just spring fever has taken a hold on peo-
pie with bent for fishing and while they sleep
lily and are given to yawnng at ordinary tasks, they
ready to work like naiers at the business try
ing to lure few fnny beauties from the lairs they
wot of in Carter lake and other places. Adults are
not alone In being attacked with the call of the hook
and line. goodly number OF youngsters can be
found any day sitting quietly the for a longer
time than they be kept quiet at any other
occupation. Most of them bring dog along, and it's
surprising how well behaved these canine friends are
when the little master is exercising such unwonred
patience. The spirit OF care actually seems to be
communicated to the dog -
Let the breezes blow as chilly as they will; let rain
threaten as it may let school keep not-the true
fisherman, boy pits his stored up longing and
his winter accumulation of heat against anything the
weather man can spring him. He prefers to battle
in sunshine the music of the crickets and
the birds but fish he will. One good bite suffices
for much weary waiting, and very ordinary fish
will satisfy the craving he chershes If he be fortu-
nate enough to land good one. then his cup OF Joy
is full indeed This thing IS medicine and meat for
the angler.
One specially favored place at Carter lake Just
now, for the youngsters alongside the big dredge

groups Will be on the ground to spend the day angling
and rusticating, with homemade lunches packed
plentfully in baskets and then Carter lake will be in
full bloom with its working early morn

Mr.. Adams also said 1t is the intention to have the
railroad tracks moved from their present location to
point farther north of the lake shore to permit of
carrying out the decorative part of the scheme.
Reservations for ice houses located on the lake
