FORMER EDITOR OF Herald
LANDS ONE OF PRIZE FISH

Mr.. Frank l.. Felix, former editor
of the Herald, who spends the win.
tiers in Florida since retiring from the
newspaper game, has succeeded this
year in landing one of the rare sail
fish, fish that is very seldom caught,
and one that is very highly priced by
the angler who is so fortunate to
land one
Concerning the catch by Mr.. Felix
the Mama Metropolis has the follow
ing to say;
Local fishermen are accusing w.
G. Duncan, the well-known Kentucky
nimrod of trying to corner the sail
fish sport. First Mr.. Duncan, who
is president of the w. c.. Duncan Coal
company of Greenville, Ky, had to
catch sailflsh about month ago.
Then he took his sister, Mrs. Herrick
Johnson of Louisville, Ky, out on
Monday of last week, and she landed
sailfish. Still not satisfied with
having two of these rare fish in the
family, he took out his brother-in-law
Frank l.. Felix of Hartford, Ky, Fri
day-and doggone it if Mr.. Felix
didn't cop one of the prizes.
Mr.. Felix was formerly publisher
and editor of The Herald at Hartford
KY, and one of the few newspaper
men who have ever been known to
land fish worth while.
The last sailfish was caught during
a four days cruise to the lower keys
by Mr.. Duncan and Mr.. Felix on the
Gypsy Queen, returning to Miami
Saturday evening. On this same
trip the party caught 1876 fish of a
total weight of / 1850 pounds, and in
Guiding an amberjack weighing Al p
pounds, and a barracuda weighing
80 pounds, caught by Mr.. Duncan on
heavy tackle. which he entered for
the Mama Anglers club prizes for
that class. They are prize fish so
far. Besides these fish there were
good-siZed grouper, dolphin and
bonita. Mr., Duncan is one Of the
most active members of the club.
Mr.. and Mrs. Duncan, who came to
Miami early in the season, will re-
main two weeks longer before start
ing for their home in Kentucky.
Next Monday MIR. Duncan will go
down to the keys again on the Billeo,
Capt. Dunn, for a several days
cruise.
This is the third season that the
Duncans have been coming to Miami.
Mr.. Duncan is enthusiastic in his
praise of the climate and fishing here,
and says he IS certainly coming back
again next year.

SAVINGS TO WIN WAe.

An expert investigation into the
savings of this country shows that
in normal times our people save
about 100000 annually.
With the added incentive to thrift
brought about by war conditions, our
people saved in 1916 a total of s13,
900, 100000.
While the exact figures for 1917
are not as yet available, it is estimat-
ed that the savings for this year
reached the startling sum of$1S, 200,
100000. With these facts before
us we cannot but face the next Liber-
ty Loan campaign with courage and
confidence. -i.2
