The Big Ones Get Away
by ALBERT APPLE

A 2oPoUND muskellunge hooked by fisherman in
Sparrow lake. Ontario Canada. He landed 1t in his
rowboat Now, 2Opound "lunge' in rowboat is about
genial and active a wildcat
This fisherman Bill Sparkling alone in his boat-no
one TO advise Also he city Teller" had before
caught anything fourth big Nothing in his rowboat
to kill the unge by whack behind the eyes. But he hap
pened TO have a loaded shotgun.
So he blew off its headalso blew big hole in the bot
tom of his boat An 0bway Indian rescued him before he
drowned among the weeds.
Fishing Is exciting game-when they're striking.
That's why hundreds of thousands of Americans
cationing with rod and line.
ENSHING and hunting the most ancient industries Of
man. They existed long before agriculture. When a
man fishes he the call of the wild inherited from
barbaric ancestors.
No real sportsman catches and kills fish than
will be eaten. To do so is vandalism.
All anglers know that the streams and lakes of our
tnent gradually being fished out" Restocking is
able to keep up with catches Accordingly good sports will
make of this fact:
When you catch fish too small to keep always handle
him with wet hands dry hand is almost certain to kill
the fish, for it ruins the oily protective film the scales
Another thing An angler enraged because the fish isn't
large often hurls it vciousy far from the boat This apt
to kill the fish within few days fish isn't made of iron.
And water is hard you know if YOU hit it flat with
your stomach in diving.
Play the game fairly Be good sport Help conserve our
vanishing fish resources

The man died in accord with some natural law" i'm

explanation must be accepted it must be admitted that
the little dot in time called human life is merely trens-

What law violated is entirely another question
question that is being and understood thru the
progress of the sciences We have learned for instance
why yellow fever carried off thousands of the abeboded

adapt ourselves to the good that is in them
The difference between dead in his ffties and
