F. G. Conlee, who spent the
winter at Gasparilla, Florida,
was in town this week, having
recently returned from the Land
of Flowers. Some Of his friends
remarked that he looked just a
bit thinner than when he left
here last fall, and in trying to
account for it, they find that his
falling-off was caused, not by
that climate and country, but by
the continued exertion of pulling
out the twenty-five to forty
pound fish that took his hook,
day after day, on the sea shore
along the coast at Arcadia. Mr..
Conlee, himself, admits that a
man who loves fishing would
rather be poor than to miss the
pull of a forty FOUNDER.
