JUST FISH STORIES
sssssWNeeG MggGss:

Some mighty big fish are being
landed in this region of fish, flies
and mosquitoes. The last few
days has seen the shipment of
wonderful catches, even though
the angler can ship only one box
of twenty pounds each seven
days. And that is enough for
the sportsman, but nothing is
enough for the fish hog, ofwhich,
thank God, there are few who
drop in on US and cause much
muttering Of curses. All hail to
the fellow who knows when he
has enough, but the devil take
the mutt who wants to dig up
the bottom of every lake with
his hardware, and then howl be-
cause there are several fish still
running loose which he has fail
ed to capture.

tonight on hearing the press cables
telling the story of the rescue of the
Australian airmen.
II couldn't say any more II talked
an hour" he smiled.
All over Washington there was Joy
at the news that Hawker and his as
sistant had been saved. Hope had been
completely abandoned, 1t being thought
beyond any doubt that the gallant
fiers had paid for their daring with
their lives.
1t is not exaggeratng to say that
practically every man In the navy,
despite the fact that the American
navy was trying to win the honor Of
the first transatlantic fight, would
have been pleased for Hawker to have
succeeded in his original attempt to
reach Ireland. His effort in hopping off
for Ireland direct, in the hope of beat
ing the American planes going by way
Of the Azores, so appealed to the sport
ing blood Of the navy here that the
young Australians probably had more
rooters than the "home team"
