Jimmy Hawkins Lands a "Hopl"
By CHARLES II. MANDY

failed to hook the fish, he made another
cast and again the fish struck, and again
he failed to land. Jimmie braeed him
self and again cast his line and hardly
had the hooks hit the water when the
FISH had the audacity to strike again.
Either that fish is stringing you or you

knows that three strikes is out"
Three strikes are not out in this in
stance" responded Jimmy. but If you
will keep quiet | will have him out
of that lake in few minutes
GO to it, kid" eased out Davie, but
remember, I have to be at my office by
8 o'clock tomorrow"
Jimmie made no reply, but raising high
his fishing tackle, he gave vicious back
slash" expecting to throw the line far
into the lake The boat was close to
the shore, which at that point WAS COW
cred with small trees and brush. As the
line went back Jimmie felt 1t catch in
something and gave little stronger jerk,
when to his intense surprise and to Da-
vie's astonishment, something alive was
seen floundering on the hook. Jimmie
made a quick landing. the catch proving
to be feathered creature of unusual de-
sign. that Is, to the anglers. and they
could not determine its kind or species.
After much deliberation they decided
that the creature must have been sleep
ing in the brush and that when Jimmie
made his last cast the hook caught the
animal under the chin and thus he was
landed. They agreed to bring the result

to determine whether 1t was bat, beast
or bird
Jack Stallings was the first expert
consulted He looked the thing over sew
eral minutes, then said: THAT animal is
an eagle of an almost extinct species.
And he put ON an air as If he was IA
mliar with all brands of eagles.
M. L. Ward was passing the office and
he was called in for expert testimony

ers over and putting on a judicial air

'"rhat insect is a hawk, of a kind tha

That's the extinkingest proposition tha
has ever come TO my notice." commented
Davie, and Jimmie grlnned.
just then Jack Biddle came along, anc
as Jack is recognized authority on al
sports, indoor and outdoor. from a prize
fight to a game of ping pong, he was
hailed with delight and his opinion Gag
erly sought. Jack picked up the "beastie'
and after a careful examination, rendered
his opinion. THAT reptile is not a heagle
and it is not an 'awk, it's howl"
And sure enough, it was a common ole
screech owl that was taking his daylight
siesta whSh he got the hook" Messrs
Hawkins and Davidson vouch for this

that men must be compelled to do what
it is their duty to do
Mr.. Fiske continued TO discuss technic-
ally the laws of insurance of meny
countries Then he addressed directly
the agents for his company and told
them what a fine place they occupied
in the estimation of the people. He re-
ferred 10 the fact that over 100 homes
We're omen to each individual agent OF
his company.
''Ahi" he exclaimed, "Nhat an oppor-
tunity. What chance to be kind. What
an opportunity to spread the gospel OF
sunshine. What an opportunity to minis
ter to those who need you."
Mr.. F'islIe advised his agents to hold
their heads high in the air and recognize
to themselves and show to all men that
before man and the world they occupied
a position of honor and greatness.
Tells of Work of Nurses
Mr.. Fiske drew near the close of his
address with description of the work
of the trained nurses sent out by his
company to minister to the policyholders
of the company. Mr.. Efske said:

1872 over million homes. In this state

dreaded disease threatens to NOV the

Not imagination, gentlemen" said Mr.,
Fiske, but facts. In Birmingham alone
We visited 900. OF that number 700 were
well shortly. The other 800 are either in
the hospitals, or are getting better. That
is a sample OF the great work this COM
pany is doing"
Mr. Fiske gave to his auditors an ac-
count of the route taken of the $2,500O0o
per week collected by his agents. He said
1t was a common fund of which the COM
pany was trustee to be used for the bene-
fit of the worl<ingman. He pointed out
that the tremendous income OF the COM
pany was invested. He said bonds We're

that railroad bonds were bought but the
