RISK LIVES TO CATCH FISH
Breaking Waves Off the Coast

Even the lads of nine and twelve
gears at the old Indian settlement of

rocks that rise out of the Pacific ocean
IF the mouth Of the Quillayute river
n Washington, are doing their share
toward winning the war. The lads
lalf dressed. dash, across the beach
70 meet the incoming ude. wade into
the water and wait for thu waves to
break with fish. AS the combers break
the lads dash into the boiling SUR
and rake the ocean for ash. Ere
quently the waves dash over the boys
heads. but they never lose their foot.
Ing and the danger Of the work does
not excite more than passing attention
from the old women weaving baskets.
During the day the Indians at La
Push village average fully a ton OF
iish caught with dip nets. The older
nen help with the curing when their
LAYS work is done but 1t is the boys
ask TO capture the fish.
With each tide thousands Of smelt
re driven inshore Each lift OF the
lip nets from the surf generally
brings basketful Of fish.
Three of Quillayutes are now In
the military service. There are now
250 men, women and children in the
little settlement, but each Is doing
his or her share with fishing, wal
gardens and other activities to help
