A REAL TRUE FISH STORY.

Mr.. and Mrs. C. w. Spencer and two
children, Arthur Provost and Mrs.
Hamlin, of Lakeview, Iowa, started
for home via the auto route yesterday
morning after having spent ten days
at Ward Springs. The gentlemen are
expert fishers and have demonstrated
conclusively that there are bass in
abundance at Little Birch Lake.
Thursday of last week they caught SO
bass, the limit, and eight pickerel.
The bass ranged all the way from two
to six pounds. Sunday morning they
landed 35 and fifteen more in the af-
ternoon. Several other nice catches
have been made at Little Birch this
fall but the two Iowa gentlemen
claim that they can go out on Little
Birch any old time and bring in fine
string of bass, and from the records
they have made during their visit
this year the Herald believes they can
make good. The gentlemen were at
Little Birch last year. They fished IL
every lake between their home and
Little Birch before they found place
to their liking, and as they live 300
miles South, they covered some terri
tory. They say that they would not
think of visiting the lake before Sept.
18th, and expect to come again next
year, and bring number Of their
Iowa friends with them.

the debtor in the inn playing dominoes

the face Of the creditor told the same
tale. Sunday being dies non, the
