Has your father a mania for fish
ingi II he has, / wonder il 1t Is
your duty to help search for the
many articles which are necessary
to make up suceessful fishing trip.
First Of all, father comes to q
halt in front of the house Of his
faithful friend--the Ford-(which
has been christened the "fieh
hound.") This rafting piece Of
utility is equipped in a way that.
would arouse the enthusiasm Of any
fisherman.
Then he dashes madly into the
house and mother looks up with a
surprised and yet understanding air
Anyone but the wife of man fond
Of fishing, would think that some
great catastrophe is at hand, but
mother and 1 both realize that 1t
only means another fishing trip.
Then father falls down two flights
Of stairs in his rush to the base
ment. These trips are made in such
lgreat haste that it requires the
services Of all the family to help
locate the misplaced and myster-
ious fishing articles.
Soon, from the depth of the base
ment a faint voice will call, ma, do
you know where l put my high-top
bootsf" Then mother gets up rcluc-
tantly and heaves sigh and goes
down to the basement to help
search for the missing boots. After
short time has elapsed, a meek
voice will say, well, what did you
do with them dear9"
A mad search will follow, then
am called down to help in the
hunt. After we have overturned
boxes and looked in every corner
we finally decide that the boots
must have been loaned to some fell
low fisherman.
Finally father winds his way to
the attic, with mother and l fol
lowing. Here we discover, amidst
many antiques, all kinds Of fish
ing contraptions. Among these is
a little tin box, which it seems
father treasures very highly, for il
accompanies him on every trip. My
curiosity is aroused and l cautious
| ly open it, expecting to find some
valuable content. To my horror
discover a combination Of wretched
dead worms and salmon eggs. Will
one glance 1 hurriedly close the boz
and throw it to one side. Father
picks it up tenderly and puts it, il

SIX DIE WHEN TWO PLANES STRIKE IN MID AIR
TRASH CAN AND SIDEWALK
SIGNS FIND LITTLE FAVOR

The Council last night heard the
sixth request for permission to place
20 or 80 large covered trash cans,
bearing advertising, on the streets of
the city without cost. Mr.. Burk5,
chairman of the committee handling
such matters, said he had recommen-
ded against such applications before
and would not recommend this one,
but would like to see one before
passing final judgment. The matter
went to his committee for action.
Mayor Sheppard reported that the
practice of defacing the sidewalks
with painted signs had been called to
his attention, and on suggestion of
Alderman Burke, following disap-
proyal of the practice by Alderman
Taylor, the ordinance committee was
instructed to report at the next ses-
sion of council an ordinance prohib-
iting such practices in the futur-.

PLENTY WATER,
TOO MUCH LOAD
And Price Would Be Prohibitive.
Is Information From Council
On Swimming Pool Request

That the city. has, an abundance
of water, but cannot afford to add
such an extra burden to its pumping
system as would be required to sup
ply the swimming pool, and also
could not furnish a supply Of water
at a price that the Playground could
afford to pay was the information
that came out last night at the city
council meeting during and after the
appearance of j. Ralston Cargill,
head of the Playground, and commit
tees Of the three civic clubs, to ask
the council to make a price on a
temporary supply if it had the water
to furnish. After Mr.. Cargill had
explained the situation, practically
as outlined in advance in this paper
yesterday, the matter was referred
to the water committee with instruc-
tions to report back to the council
its recommendation.
Mr.. Cargill impressed that he
wanted no gift, having pledged the
council when the Playground was
purchased that it would never be ask
ed for anything more for this prop
erty. He said, however, that tenn
porary supply was needed until the
pool well was completed or tested,
and he asked information which he
might lay before the Playground as
sociation.
After the meeting, in informal
discussions, City Engineer Wheatley
stated that the city has an abund-
ance of water, but said the plant
should not be given an extra load
of The size needed to supply the pool
10000 gallons per day. He said
the city is now pumping 100000
gallons a day for its own use, which
requires II hours. During the 9TH
er IL hours, he said, the machinery
is constantly being overhauled and
kept in shape. He said the plant
could handle the extra load, which
would require extra hours of pump
ing, but should not be required to
do so.
MIR. Burke stated that the city is
now losing money on its water de-
partment, instead of making a good
profit as citizens generally suppos-
GU anu DecH ltu " DelleNc, anu LudI
every 1000 gallons pumped was
costing 20 cents, the household rate
charged, and that on the two or three
large consumers which had a rate of
IS cents the city was losing heavily.
He said that even at the Is cent rate
the needed water for the pool would
cost the Playground association S27
a day, which would be prohibitive
THE only way to complete the
pool and put it in operation" said
he, ''is to sell more pool bonds. I'll
buy $25 wordl more and | am sure
many others will do the same. / am
not against the pool. l have built a
gate through my back fence to make
it convenient to get to the pool from
my home for bathing during the sum
mer. But | can't see how the city
can possibly furnish the water at a
rate which the pool could pay"

ESSAY WRITERS
ROTARY GUESTS
Each Read Papers Written On
Club Motto And Receive
Prizes

Seven of ten Americas high school
students whose essays on the club
motto, "He Profits Most Who Serves
Best" were selected by the commit
tee as the most meritorius, were
guests of the Rotary ,club at its
regular luncheon at the Tea Room
yesterday, They were Misses Ruby
Harris, Betty Castellow, Rossie An
drews, Emma Wcstbrook and Martha
Ivey, and Messrs. Morgan Sellers and
Ral Gatewood. The other three,
who are members of the school
baseball team and were absent from
the city, were Carr S. Glover, Jr.,
Frank Wright and John E. Kiker,
| Jr.
Each of the seven read the papers
they had written and each received
a prize from the club Miss Harris
was declared of first prize. Love-
lace Eve had charge of this part of
the program and in complimenting
the prize winners he called atten-
tion of the club to the credit these
splendid students reflected upon the
teaching corps of the city schools.
j. Ralston Cargill was given a vote
of appreciation for the success of
the Detroit Rochester baseball game,
in which he was the leader, and ap-
precation of the support of it by the
Times-Recorder was also voted.
Col G. r Ellis, who had just re-
turned from trip to New York.
was asked to tell of his trip He said
the most interesting fact he learned
was that money is becoming more
abundant He stated that one finan-
cier told him money was cheaper
but credit higher, indicating that the
exrension Of finances had not yet
really begun. He declared that the
large insurance companies, on whom
for some time the demand had been
made for more money for farm loans
than they could supply, now found
the condition reversed and they had
more money than they found demand
for, proving that money is becoming
much easier.
Mr.. Cargill, who also had recently
visited New York, told Of attending
q Rotary club meeting there, at
which 400 to 500 were present. He
said he was most impressed by
talk on thrift in which the speaker,
using the subject, Laughing Dol
lars" said ones dollars either laugh
with him or at him.
Two Boy Scouts of the Rotary
troup troup were present with Scout
Master Peck Rylander and introduc
ed by him as two of his good scouts.
Members of the troop are to be
guests of the club al every meeting
until all have been entertained.
Next Thursday night will be ladies
night the Rotary club, and at that
time nominations will be made for
members of the club board of di-
rectcrs, with each member express
ing a preference for club officers
who are elected by the board.
