them about five lengths behind the
middies.

came Syracuse and Columbia barely a
length apart

National Fish Day

There is fish here for those who
want it" and I'VE always have fish
every day" were included among the
replies received, in regard to Au-
gusta's observance of National Fish
day, this Wednesday. One public eat
ing place proprietor declares that he
hadn't thought much about Wednes-
day being the National Fish day, but
that it would be on the menu for
those who wanted it. The object of
the day is to stimulate peoples APP
petites for fish, which is considered
one Of the most valuable foods. AS a
general rule, hotel and restaurant
proprietors have given little thought
Of the suggested National observance,
here in the city.

ment for almost four years. The

nouncement has just been made of
the betrothal of Miss Nina Morgana,
a soprano of the Metropolitan Opera
Company, and Bruno Zirata, secre-

almost four years, but no announce
ment has been made until now. I'VE
had prepared to have our wedding
in April" Miss Morgana said. but
with the grave illness of Mr.. Caruso
all our plans were altered. Now
we hope to arrange it so that he can
take at least some small part in the
celebration. This is the first year
that Miss Morgana has been with
the Metropolitan. She was with the
Chicago Opera association last sea-
son, and before that she sang abroad
and on the Pacific Coast in operate
