For consistent week in and week
| out fishing there is no better place
| for local anglers to visit than Rock
Point. 1t is very seldom that an
angler returns from the point empty

sometimes in schools, and easy TO

tains of the different motor boats
| have 10 hunt for them. On the food
tide they can usually be located in
| the Wimcomico River and not so
| very far offShore. On the ebb tide
| river your boatman will take you out
| in the Potomac to fish.
! In past seasons August has always
! been an excellent month for fishing at
| Rock Point. Not only do the trout
! commence to arrive around the first
| of the month, but large spot weigh
/ ing close to pound each are very
| plentiful. While large numbers of
trout are annually caught at the point
| during August, September and Oc-
! tober, perhaps the best trout fishing
! is across the Potomac on the Virginia
sandy bottom on the Virginia side and
| the big trout seem to like that kind
of bottom.
! Trout weighing and pounds and
! sometimes larger were landed there
| last season. Besides the trout, the

| be big bloodworm.- OF course they
will also take peelers, but the blood
| worm can always be depended upon
| to attract them.
Prevailing winds from the west and
| northwest have not contributed much
| to the success of fishermen at Chesa-
| peake Beach. and the returns have
been correspondingly meager. How
ever, ii remained for few visitors
to take home with them some very
| fine specimens of hardheads. Among
| this number was Frank Ferris. who
spent the night on the long pier and
exhibited the next morning more
! than a dozen.

varying success in the boats, n few

So far this season there have been
very few rockf1sh caught. that species

which there is an atmosphere of free
dom from material limitations. The
environment pictured in the story be-
comes very real. The narrative seems
like an experience and like an exper-
fence is lived over again and again
Is it strange if the story sometimes
varies, the hero or heroine changes
and this daydream is woven into the
autobiography that the child likes SO
well to tell?
The situation calls for imagination
on the part of the one who is to deal
with it, A little sympathetic under
standing will admit one to the child S
confidence. 1t is necessary to be
there in order to be of service. That
it really is difficult for some children
to distinguish between what they
imagine and that which actually &C.
ours, is well substantiated. Forum
ately there are men and women who
have not forgotten the days when
slack and the Bean Stalk" was real
to them. Some can even remember
how they themselves, in imagination,
quite outdid Jacks exploits.
Little by little this vagueness Of
distinction between what is really
done and what is merely thought of
disappears, and the former stands out
with clean-cut outline. At this time
a reaction may take place against the
fairy story. This is to be regretted,
especially if it be the outcome of a
feeling, on the chifd's part, that he
has been deceived. The plea for a
true story is quite often the cutlery
of disillusionment. The child should
be protected from such experiences.
If told from the beginning that the
fairy story is a make-belief it will
lose nothing of its first charm, and
his pleasure in it will be prolonged.
And what is even better, this mcrhod
will help him to classify his own
stories. If the parent uses tact the
child will quite enjoy applying the
term "make-belief" to his romancnig.

Many mother has been puzzled
regarding the attitude she ought to
take when the little son or daughter
insists on telling original stories for
facts. No one can solve this problem
for her. No one can outline a def
finite course and be sure that it will
prove to be the best always; indi-
vidual cases differ so greatly. Never
theless, perplexities of this sort are
often much simplified by considering
the underlying causes.
The little child has had compare
lively few experiences, and for this
reason each one is very vivid in his
consciousness. He lives them over
and over. This is not the result of
any effort on his part, the mind acts
spontaneously. Stories are enjoyed
because they minister to this mental
activity, and, to the younger children,
