Walter Froelich of Sayner must
have learned something about fish
ing from jim Parftt. The Parfitts
and Froelichs spent the winter at
Perdido Beach, Alabama and are
reported to have caught some
mighty fine sea fish. That is what
Parftt claims and also claims that
he put it all over Walter, who at
chat time didn't know what fish
was; that he had lived all his life
in Wisconsin and never angled any.
Walters 30 pound musky which he
took last week makes Parftt out a
fabricator or else Walter must have
made a good pupil under the guild
ance Of Jim.

Joe Trinka and Ed Drager on
Nelson lake Sunday landed a 334-
pound green bass. Master Clair
Finch, aged u, carries the black
bass honors with one weighing 4
pounds seven ounces. Gave the lad
a big tussle but he was there with
the know-how and brought in his
quarry. Many are the big boys
caught the first few days-and bass
fishing has not started; that is, the
best angling will come from now
on as the season advances.

Tiffen, Clayton, Mo-, who is Light

time.
And now they will claim that the
writer is a nut if he tells the trout
story that Ed Cummings of Big
Woods Lodge on Big St. German
lake told him yesterday. Cum
mings vouches for the truth of the
assertion that there has been two
brook trout taken the past few
days out of Big St. German by
game fish anglers. One weighed
better than two pounds and the
other a pound. This is not unbe-
lievable. You see there are two
trout streams coming into Big St.
German and why cannot the
spekled fellows take a trip from
one stream to the other by cross
ing the main body of the lake. But
it does sound funny, doesn't it?

Anew Novel of Modern Life, Centered
on the Heart and the Mind
of the ''Flapper."

Tending herself? why had he
plunged so headlong into his
abuse of her?
Was that love? Then she was
lucky to be rid of it! Free from
ono who could lash her heart so
burningly.
But when she faced the future
with him gone she turned cold
and longed to die.
He was suffering, too. He would
be going over the scene and recall
the brutal things he had said.
Then he would be covered with
shame and would rush to her
seeking humbly her pardon. She
would grant it swiftly-beg his.
She waited for this. When days
passed and no word came her
fears became now fury; fury
melted to longing; longing hard
ened again to resentment.
Thursday Richard came just
after Sally had left the house. He
was a sober, penitent Richard.
He was pale; the small fascinating
eyes serious and pleading.

She faced him with blazing eyes
and proud, uptilted chin. She
thought of phrases Dane had
used-"Smooth rotter,' slick

Don't dare to bring me flowers!
Don't dare!" She flung the purI,
fragile lilies back in his face.
