This is the season Of year TO go
fishing. II you have never gone
fishing you should go, provided you
have an imagination. II you have
no imagination you would get no
pleasure out Of fishing trip.
Big fish stories are the outgrowth
Of the Imagination Of fishermen, says
Col. Harry Summers. of the Eliza
BEETHOVEN News.
They get a great deal Of pleasure
getting ready to 20 fishing and can
talk about il and plan for il and inn
agine how many fish they are going
TO catch. They also get a great
deal Of pleasure talking about it af-
ter they return. Imagination with
the real fishermen colors everything
both before and after taking.
When the dogwood is in bloom and
winter clothes begin to become I'M

for the river bank like a catbird
wants to try its wings in the open
air.
A.. Every fisherman loves nature, and
in the spring time he simply longs
to get away from the hauntS Of men
and sit down on the lap Of nature.

While there may not be that
stringency in the money market which
has existed for some months past,
SAID Commissioner Foster, yet have
a feeling that the next year or
eighteen months will be our most try

debtor will begin to realize the burden
of his debt and the fictitious nature
of a great many of his assets.

THE new CITY JAIL

Editor State Journal:
Mayor Corwine deems exceedingly
essential new Jail. This need cam
not be gainsaid. But this project
should not be carried out in the very
near future. owing to the great cost
of building. Renovation and vital
repairs only are in order at present
When the psychological time shall
have arrived for new Jail. two ex-
tremeN advantageous conditions will
prevail. viz: Much lower costs and
the lack of the necessity of a Jail of
any such ma gnitude as the present
one, owing to the most exemplary en-
forcement of prohibition by the police
force.

serve weighty conside era ton.
