The golden and the pearly rice?

And the grain is safe on the threshing floor"
Have you gathered the berries from the vine
And the fruit from the orchard trees?
The dew and the scent from the roses and thyme,
In the hive Of the honey bees?"
THE peach and the plum and the apple ours
And the honeycomb from the scented flowers"
The wealth Of the snowy cotton field
And the gift Of the sugar cane,
The savory herb and the nourishing root
There has nothing been given in vain"
I'VE have gathered the harvest from shore to shore
And the measure is full and brmming o'er"
Then lift up the head with a song!
And lift up the hand with a gift
To the ancient Giver Of all

For the Joy and the promise Of spring,
For the hay and the clover sweet,

The rice and the corn and the wheat
The cotton and sugar and fruit,
The flowers and the fine honeycomb

He describes the flies. the line and
leaders. the methods of tying on the
flies. and gives practical directions for
casting anG fishing a-stream- He
takes the beginner to a real pool and
shows how the dry-fiy may be used on
rough waters as we'll as on placid
pools. The method is, of course. en-
tirely different from wet-fiy fishing,
and it has it's own peculiar fascination.
The fly is always in sight and the thrill
when it is taken is something which
the wet-fiy fisherman hardly expert
ences. Mr.. Gill has a concluding chap
ter on the history of the floating fly
and some of it's interesting literature.
This is first of all a, book to read with
