FISHIN' TIME FUN

"Fishin' time is with us again.
Through weary months of waiting,
while river. pond and lake were
chained in fetters of ice, the angler
has longed and looked for this season
of the year" says the Winnebago City
Enterprise. "And now that the grass is
green again, and the trees are once
more clothed with their glory, the
tribe of fishermen is again at peace
with the world and all is well. 1t is
a great sport, this fishin', and the best
part of it al lis that you really don't
have to catch fish in order to enjoy it.
Just to lazy around in the boat, with
the old corncob drawing merrily, and
the warm sun beating down upon you
/ is Joy enough. But, of course, when
the big fellows get to biting, and the
line runs out over the reel with much
enthusiasm, you get that tingling of
the nerves that battles description,
and if YOU land hin-Oh, boy, what a
grand and glorious feeling goes throb-
bling through your frame" It's like
that happy feeling that thrills you
with pleasure when "Topics of the
Dav'' Films tickle your risibles with
a string of fish jokes or other fun.
Now for some fishin' time fun:
