STORKS

Storks have one advantage.
They are born with bamboo
legs, ready to 60 fishing.
All a stork has TO do to go
fishing is. to stick IS leg out
over lake and sit aere. Of
course, he can't SIG it in the
mud and go off and leave it.
Still, no man who has ever
herded a flock of wild poles in
a three quart buggy over a
bumpy road will deny that it
is an advantage to go through
life with poles attached. Espe-
cially coming home. A sincere
fisherman has trouble enough

But here's another thing.

We guess we'll be satisfied
