State Game and Fish Commissioner
Jesse Mercer has been telling his asso-
ciates around and about the state cap
itol of a fish pond he has discovered in
south Georgia which quite puts 1t over
all other fish ponds known to disci-
pies of the reel and rod in this state.
In performing his duties as guar
dian of the piscatorial interests of
Georgia, Commissioner Mercer has to
visit all sorts of out of the way places
and sections, and makes the acouaint
ances, in consequence. Of all sorts of
persons and things Naturally, there
fore, he meets many worthy and we'll
qualified Georgians who rarely get to
the big cities. and who are more or
less unmindful of the big cities neces-
sites and desires.
In one Of these rounds, Colonel Mer
Ger ran across the big fish pond OF
which he lately has been talking. and
what he says of it Is enough to awaken
and arouse a rampant desire in the
heart Of the most blase sportsman to
be up and doing.
This pond, says Mercer contains
not less than 5000 acres and is in the
southwest corner of Berrien county
bordering on the Okefenokee swamp
region.
1T literally sWarms with fsh-the
most beautiful and gamey masinable
ha fol hV
millions. specify Dream. Weighing from
one to three pounds: trout, running up
to twelve pounds, and blue Dream,
Weighing from one half to one pound
Moreover, there is not one German
carp in the entire pond, and to the
complets absence OF that pirate ard
most undesirable citizen in all fishdom
may be as2ribcd the great size of the
noble fish family running free in this
pond.
This POND Is pond, mind you, and
not a lake. It was built originally for
a mill pond. 1t is now in the custody
of B. I. Berryhi1, of Midtown, and Is
visited infrequently by fishermen.
" am perfectly honest when I say
believe there sre more fish in this one
d nd than there are in the entire state
of Georgia outside OF It,. And as yet
those who care to may fish there with
out hindrance or cost.
The famous ReeIfoot lake section in
Tennessee has nothing whatever on the
pond I have discovered in Berrien
county right here in our own state Of
Georgia"

far as Marquand. Marquand ha:
improved wonderfully in the last
twelve months. Ed White, our
enterprising merchant, has built q
fine large bricK warehouse, with
basement and elevator to take
heavy goods up to the second sto-
ry. He has a fine stock of goods.
He also has remodeled his home.
Marquand also has improved NOR
ally. When | was loading logs
there two yeors ago | could hardly
find sober men to load cars. and
every train brought in a jug of
whiskey. Now these men have
cut this out, and are living a
Christian life. | attended prayer
meeting and you ought to hear
them get up and talk for Jesus and
say how the Lord had blessed
them. The pastor had given out
the word to be the bible story.
Every man and woman there told
how they had met with disappoint-
ment, and that in some cases it
had been q help to them. l told
them my whole life had been a
disappointment, but one thing l
could be thankful for, and that was
had health-better than riches.

also the farm products, but the at

than 1000 people, when there
should have been 5000. Ring

Mr., Carter of Piedmont there. We

the same maiden. She had that

"saw her off," AS the boat pulled
out she threw a kiss shoreward,
and each lover claimed it for him
self exclusively. Hence the set-to,
and hence further the excuse for
the tender lines on the first page
of this paper dedicated to the ex-
circulating feelings assumedly pos
sessing the souls of the rivals. I

THE thin veneer of civilization
has not made of Japan all that we

clings to the beliefs and super

Commodore Perry opened her
ports to the outside world. The
suicide of Gen. Nogi and his wife
committing hara-kiri-was in
perpetuation of an ancient tradi-
ton supposed to have been cast in
to the rubbish heap of the past.

to have belonged to the period
when evolution was in its earlier
