more than IS, and you will have tho
loyal support OF every fair-minded
angler in Washington"
This letter is reproduced with The
hope that many other local anglers
will write in expressing their views.
Every fair-minded angler wants to
cooperate with any movement that
aims to conserve and preserve the
denizens Of the deep. When man
takes his leave and goes on a fishing
trip he wants TO feel reasonably sure
that his efforts will be rewarded;
that he will feel the thrill of sonIr-
thing pulling at the other end OF his
line, and TO match his skill with
the game little fellow and to give
him at least some chance to regain
his liberty. for. after all. that Is the
real sport 10 the real fisherman.
If this proposed Maryland legisla-
ton is enacted into law. and. as In
the state of Virginia, nominal non
resident fee of SO 90 instead of S.
is agreed upon, IL will be but corn
parativeIy short time before the
angler can go up the Potomac and

The music for the old French

morrow evening and continuing
until after Christmas, will be
under the direction of Gertrude
McRae Nash, at the piano, and

Family Emusic Album
In 'Pathegrams'' Of
Childhood

Here's something new that
should be a treasure in every
home where childhood reigns.
Why not make "Pathegram"
of the children's Christmas CAROL
ling, to remember-through a
record disc of the Pathe Phono-
graph Company-aH the year?
"The club" has a new slogan
for the Pathe. 1t is "Say it
with Pathegrams."
One merely talks into a sort of
horn, on a special blank disc,
and your own music of violin,
or song, or ssthe lAhaby,s. first
nursery rhyme, is captured on
the metal to be kept in the fam
lily Emusic album"
There are many ways this
personal record may serve one.
Not only to preserve the things
that are vanishing, but also they
may be used for a student to
hear himself and thus correct
his own mistakes, that while per-
forming he cannot so well de-
tect.
