New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1916-06-14
SUCCESSFUL FISHING is. NOT
LAZY MANS JOB.

thOne who has never fshed has an idea
that fishing is a lazy mans job, says
TIE Waco (Tex.) Times. It is not true.
no be a successful fisherman one must
pot only have energy, but he must have
oatienee, two very important elements
f success in this world.
He who has been too busy to take an
outing once in while, to get the cob
webs from his brain, who has never en-
joyed day with reel and rod. has missed
much of the real enjoyment of life. There
is nothing so enhancing and so restful
to the tired mind and nerve racking body
as a day of successful fishing down where
the ripping waters flow, down where the
cool breezes blow.
Who is there with imagination so dead,
with appreciation so dulled, who does
not thrill at the thought of a singing reel
and taut line as the fish is coaxed from
his home beneath the moss covered rock
or the gnarled stump in the liquid pool
on whose quiet bosom Pickering shadows
fall, as leaves are set quivering on the
tees overhead?
It is a moment to be long remembered,
when the speckled beauty, tired with the
fight against the hook and rod and fate,
gives up the battle and is reeled toward
the shore ready for the landing net.
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1916-06-14
MOTOR BOATING

J. A. Loffelmacher has been taking
a great deal of pleasure, and extending
it to others, with his new gasoline
launch. Mr.. Loffelmacher says that
the Minnesota offers splendid oppor-
tunities for motor boating and he is
very anxious that others join him and
he hopes to see whole fleet of the
"pop-pop" skiffs on the river before
summer is over. New Ulm really lacks
concerted effort to make use of her
beautiful natural resources and is sort
of lonesome place for the young
man in the summer time unless he
is we'll acquainted here. Rivers were
made to enjoy as we'll as to use for
motive power and it is high time that
the more important use of the Mime
sofa was being exercised. There is
nothing like out of door happiness to
make the young people contented and
willing to stay away from the big cities
so it is up to somebody to start the ball
a-rolling for a water carnival and thus
encourage boating and similar sports.

up the matter Of raising the road to
the Kuehnel farm with commissioner
OF Nicollet county and believed that
Nicollet county would pay a part of
the expense of raising the road to a
grade above ordinary high water mark.
This is state road and part of next
years appropriation from the state
can be spent there. The committee
was instructed to continue it's work.
The good roads committee also reported
on the proposed placing of guide posts
at the intersections of country roads
and was empowered to purchased the
signs and get in touch with the town
supervisors who no doubt would CO.
operate in placing of the signs.
Attention was called to the observance
of Good Roads Day" as proclaimed by
the governor for June 20. 1t was sug-
gested that the community picnic be
held in conjunction with good roads
day, but no definite steps were taken
as the civic committee had already been
given full power to proceed as it sees
fit.
