i Our well-meaning state humane
agent attempts TO come to the rescue
of the lowly fishworm Mr.. Freder-
lex does not like the ioea of putting
i've worm on your hook. Frankly,
we do not either, and we are free to
confess we always had considerable
repugnance about stringing a squirm-
ing, wriggIing angleworm on the fish
hook. 1t sort of spoiled the pleasure
of fishing for us. But we don't like
the remedy suggested by Mr.. Freder-
lex either. He says to boil the worms

scale of animal creation and has not
much feeling, but we submit if it has
anw at all, it must be just as painful
TO be put IN boiling water as to be inn
peeled on a FISH hook. 1t strikes us
/ that Mr.. Frederick's plan, if the fish
worm is to be given consideration from
the humane standpoint, and we take
1T that is what Mr. Frederick has in
mind, is about as inhuman as the old
method he seeks to eorrect.-Fenni-
