Bailey asked.

Angler Bailey thought 1t was gum

FROG NOT
GOOD BAIT
Why Bailey Failed to Catch
the Base

Jerome Bailey of Girty's Falls, a
retired blacksmith, has of late taken
to passing the plenty of time he has
on hand in demonstrating how much
he knows about the angling art. He
finds the greatest pleasure in casting
the illusiye fly that now and then
tempts some incautious black bass to
it's undoing
The drought, now partially disturbed
by recent falls of rain, greatly inter-
fered with Mr.. Bailey's indulgence in
the pastime, there being more work in
1t than he could find water sufficient
to compensate for, the walking mile
or two between pools and ripples on
the intervening spaces of dry and
stony river bed being exasperating as
well.
IF some one would only get up an
attachment to rod that would throw
the fly and land the fish," said he. in a
contemplative mood, as he mopped his
brow and gazed down the river mile
at a spash of water almost boiling in
the sun, 'he would make an independ-
ent fortune. I'd get one right away
and go out somewhere and get a
whole lot of big bass right away"
Attachment be swizzled," said Dea-
con Bird Galloway, who fishes some
himself nights for bullheads. why
don't you put good-sized dobber
frogs for bait and go out and stillfsh
for your bass? With that tackle and
bait you can just sit down in the shade
and read novels while you wait for
EN- to lure the bass up to snatch the
handicapped frog. That is, If you
want to keep on sticking to bass fish
ing. If you want to have some real
fishing, though, get some night walk
ing fish worms and come along with
me tonight and haul in bullheads."
Angler Bailey doesn't believe in bait
fishing, and he scorns bullheads, but
he did want some bass, so he said he
would give the frog and dobber scheme
chance. He gave boy quarter to
get him a couple of dozen young
frogs. They We're nice little green fel
lows, two inches long. He bought the
biggest dobber he could find.
1t had a goose quill through 1t and
was all painted green, green as the
frogs were. A dobber Is pear
shaped piece of light wood that floats
in the water. the line passing through
the quill. The dobber keeps the bait
in proper position in the water and
down it goes out of sight when fish
seizes the bait and rushes away
with it.
Mr.. Bailey shouldered his fish-polt
and went down to the river, found {

shade of tree, put a lively frog care
