Members of the Northeastern Con- neeticut Fish and Game club are re- sponsible again this year, as they were last year, for the restocking of trout brooks in this vicinity. Two ship ments of trout have already been re- ceived from the State Fish and Game Commission and the fingerlings have been planted in the brooks for which they were designated. Other ship ments are scheduled to come during the next few weeks and when all have been received, scores of trout brooks in Putnam, Thompson, Fomfret. Woodstock and Eastford will have re- eeived a generous supply of finger lings-to grow and thus make trout fishing a greater sport than it has been in these parts for many year.
 Records of President Prosper Vegiard of the Northeastern Connec- tieut Fish and Game club, disclose that the following clubmen (and arr dent trout fshermen) have requested, through the club, for a supply of fingerling trout, for the brooks men, toned:

Willing to ObIige

One Of the best stories of mistress
and maid is reputed to come from Miss
Margaret Bondfeld, the prominent
labor member of the British parlia-
ment. A new maid, raw and fresh
from a country village. caused her
mistress much worry because she did
not know how TO answer when spoken
to, and never addressed people in the
right way. At last, having endured
the girls awkwardness as long as pos
sible, the mistress said to her one
day: "Oh. Mary, 1 do wish you would
call me num-"
Mary looked astonished. For long
time she turned the request over in
her slow-working mind then at length
she spoke: 81 couldn't do that" she
said, II really couldn't"
"Why not?" asked her mistress pa
tiently. ''Why can't you call me
mum'?"
"Well, you see," hesitated Mary,
that's what call my mother. But
with sudden flash Of joy-"Pll call
you 'auntie' If you like"

Spanish explorer, who came to Flor
ida 400 years ago and roamed the
new continent in search of the
Fountain of YOUTH" and finally per-
ished in the wilderness, is familiar
to every high school student.
Now comes Col. L. M. Maus of the
United States medical corps, who in
an address declared that the place
for which De Leon was searching was
the Hot Springs Of Arkansas. That
it was tales of the "healing waters"
of these springs brought to the sea-
coast by adventuring explorers of
which history has no record. which

plorer and sent him into the interior
in search for the fountain. De

BEST SABLE FIELD
IMPERILED BY OIL
Russia to Decide Between
the Two Industries.

Moscow.-Sables or oil? That is
the question which the Soviet govern.
ment's planning commission must de-
eide.
Far Off In the northern Pacific the
peninsula of Kamchatka protrudes
from the mainland like dagger blade
separating the Bering and Hunter
seas. For decades Kamchatka has
been Russia's best happy hunting
ground for sables Every year 5000
of the little blue-black animals, whose
skins are valued at approximately
$5O0000, were hunted down ON the
peninsula.
Now an expedition led by P. l.
Polevov, a geologist of the Soviet geo.
logical survey, has discovered oil on
Kamchatka. The oil Is Of an extra
fine quality and yields rs to IS per
cent of kerosene, whereas the best
crude product of the Baku field yields
only 40 per cent.
The find is of paramount impor-
tance to the economic development Of
Siberia. Russia's unfathomable petro-
leum resources in the Caucasus are
too far from this vast domain, while
the oil fields in northern Sakhalien,
which have been granted as a conces-
sion to the Sinclair company, are still
occupied by Japanese troops. Consid-
cradle pressure is therefore being put
on the Moscow authorities to appropri-
ate sum Of money for the opening
Of the Kamchatka field. But here the
sables interfere.
The oil deposits which Professor
Polevov has discovered are situated
just below the trapping grounds for
sables The sables from the entire
peninsula rush into this trapping
space during certain season of the
year when the three rivers of the dis
trict overflow their banks. The small
fur-bearing animals seek refuge in the
high open preserve especially set
aside for this purpose by the govern

depends on the decision of the boil
