WHEN INDIAN FISHES
ITS WORK, NOT SPORT
Naturally Lazy, He Uses the
Sure and Simple Method.

He has three ways of doing lt-with
glll-net, with dip-net, and with
Saif-hook. The familiar hook and
line of the white man he scorns is
being too slow and entaiing too much
hard work. What the Indian wants
IS the fish. He cares nothing about
he sport of the thing, nor the thrill
IF landing a 12-poupd beauty with an
eight-ounce rod and slender silk
line; leave that TO the crazy white
man who has nothing else to do. The
indian wants the fish, and the easier
ne can get them the better he likes
t. and the more time he has for sleep.
His favorite way of catching salmon
is by the use of the gill-net, since this
method leaves him the maximum
AMOUNT of time for his previously men
toned sleep. A gill-net is a straight
piece of netting about twelve feet long
md five or six feet wide. One side has
eaden weights, so II will hang per-
aendicular in the water. On either
md is stone anchor to keep IL
stretched out.
Setting the net is an easy process.
He chooses an eddy or deep pool in
the river and floats by in his canoe,
with the net piled In the stern, When
The proper spot Is reached, he kicks
one of the anchors overheard. This
settles to the bottom of the river and
pulls the net out over the stern as the
canoe floats leisurely on. When all
the net is out of the canoe, he kicks
the other anchor overheard and his
work is done His labors over for
the day, the Indian wends his home
ward way and sinks into repose until
the morrow, leaving the net to catch
his meal, says Adventure Magazine.
The water of the Nooksack river is
never very clear; usually. 1t is muddy.
This makes 1t hard for the salmon to
see and thereby brings about their
undoing. They swim around in the
eddies and pools In search of food and,
IL net is there, they are sure to run
into 1t head-first in the course Of
day or two. The meshes of the net are
not quite large enough TO let an aver
age-sized salmon through. He gets half
way through, and then tries to back
out. As he backs out, the meshes of
the net catch under his gllls and he
stays there till the owner of the net
pulls him out.
Next day the Indian comes back in
his canoe and pulls the net up, usu-.
ally finding four or five salmon In 1t.
These he either takes home or hides
under log so he can tell his wife
where to find them. With this supply
OF fish, he betakes himselkto rest and
does not stir abroad again for week
or so, or until such time as his lardsr
is empty.

NEW SHOES IN sNAG LINE


Leather takes it's place with can

The most important addition to
the Snag Proof family is the "Jim-

product ON which the factory has
been experimenting for some months
1t was developed to meet the re-
quirements of professional basket
ball players. 1t has leather top
of the finest grade with vulcan
lied green sole which won't skid
anymore than it will wear out. To
overcome one of the common OBJ
jections to basket ball shoes the sole
is stitched as we'll as being fastened
in the usual manner.
The second shoe of which we are
particularly proud is the "Noslyde. y
This is the very best grade of can
vas athletic shoe, reinforced by the
addition of heavy leather tongue
1t has the same sort of a sole as
the Jimmy Brown Shoe and also in
cludes the Stitched on" feature.
The medium priced line has been
augmented by the Stacy, good

New Hope and Lam
berfvilIe Tennis Gibbs
Clash A gain

New Hope came back strong on
her own courts last Saturday and
all but defeated Lambertville in the
last match of the season for the
local club. Down to within ten min
utes of the end of play the total
match score between the two clubs
was even, but Lambertville finally
nosed out the needed two games to
take the last set and match.
In the first singles Fred Massey
met Bredin, Captain of the New
Hope team. Both players were in
excellent form and made this easily
the fastest game of the match. Mas
sey proved the steadier player and
won after dropping the first set.
Scores: ST, 6-2, 6-3.
Price, playing second singles for
New Hope, had decidedly "off
day" frequently netting or over-driv-
ing shots which he ordinarily kills,
and losing to Hoppock, 6-2, 6-3.
Reading, playing his first match in
singles for Lambertville, took the
first three games and then dropped
his own service after foot-faulting
twice in one game. his seemed to rat
tie him at the same time that Magill
began TO settle down and play safe
Magill won, 6-3, go.
In the second doubles Bredin and
Worthington defeated Hoppock and
Cruise. Bredin played the same fast
accurate game by which he took
Massey to three sets, while Worth
ington at the net was impossible

OUTSIDERS OPPOSE BELFAST
BANGOR ROAD BUILDING

The long drawn out opposition to
the construction of an improved road
from Belfast to Bangor, in North
ampton County, Pennsylvania is be-
ing renewed. The state had already
awarded a contract for its construc-
ton, but opponents living in other
sections of the county, contend that
it is county road, that it is I'M
necessary, and various other things
which the attorneys will figure out
by the time the case reaches the SUI
preme court. Travellers through
that section seem to think it would
aid the development of that part
of the county, as do also the people
along the route.

Statesmen HAVE ANNUAL
CONVENTION

The Eastern Statesmen gathered at
the Factory last week for their
Annual Convention. They spent their
time getting enthusiastic about the
new line of Tennis Shoes which
Lambertville is going to give to
trade this fall
In spite of business conditions the
whole tone of the Convention was OPP
| timistic The Statesmen have acquired
new confidence in the ability of the
Factory to deliver the goods. The
product is 100 per cent better in
appearance than last years line,
and Unreasonable better than our
first years sample. At the close of
the meetings at the Factory; through
Fred Cummings as their spokesman,
the Statesmen gave Charles Alexan-
der, Sales Manager, vote of con-
fdence.
Banquet Concludes Convention
The final and most interesting
event of the Statesmen Convention
was the Salesmen's Banquet, Wed
nesday August 18th at the Lam
bertville House.
Statesmen, Factory Executives and
Foremen sat down at the same table
together. This was a distinct de-
, parture fro mthe banquets of for
mer years, and the mixing of Sales
men, Office Force, Owners, and
Former, made gay and happy
party. The chicken dinner was high
ly enjoyed.
Charles Alexander was toastmas-
ter, and he drew heavily on his fund
of statesmen stories. Mr.. Shepherd,
general manager, was the first
speaker of the occasion and he ex-
pressed his confidence in the ability
and efficiency of his helpers, assur-
ing them that the managers and
owners were thoroughly behind them
in all they were undertaking to ac-
complish.
He was followed by W. A. Minott,
representing the Board of Directors,
who spoke along similar lines. F.
w. BONNER and w. E. Crowley
made remarks from the factory
viewpoint, after which the various
members of the factory force were
introduced. j. F. Woods, President
of Wids Heel Company, and James
Barrett, of Barrett Kneibler Com
pany, of Philadelphia, our advertis-
ing agents, also joined in general
tossing of bouquets. Charles Alex
ander exercised the toastmaster's
privilege of winding up the banquet
with splendid Grafton.
