First Contest Scheduled for

City

bly, on the Raritan Copper works

game will be played at Woodbridge

Seguine, is endeavoring to complies
the schedule of the Amboy Casey

FISHING
BY BERTON BRALEY

I've heard the anglers tell about
Their days of r delight,
When pickerel or bass or trout
Did nothing else but bite;
That would be fine. I must admit,
But with me. up to date,
To fish has meant to sit and sit
And WANT and wait and wait.
I've heard of fish who grabbed the
hook
With fierce and famished zest,
But on each fishing trip / took
I found the fish at rest:
I'd use my cunning and my wit
And every sort of bait,
Yet still I'd sit and sit and sit
And wait and wait and wait.
An aching back, a blistered nose.
Peeled by the blazing sun.
Are well enough. perhaps. for those
Why think that fishing's fun;
But I am deeply bored by it,
In fact I frankly hate
sit and sit and sit and sit
And wait and wait and wait!
