Rubbing It In.

OF course, we all have sense enough
not to rub in an opponents defeat.
We know that we'l never make q nit
by Growing over those who have been
beaten.
The sensible girls today have learn
ed how to be tactful over the faiiures
and tribulations of others. But they
haven't all learned that it's just as
bad to crow over your own success as
to gloat over another'S lack or sue
cess.
They don't realize the necessity for
being tactful and gracious IN the
midst Of good fortune.
They have no talent for conceahng
the inordinate pleasures they get oul
of impressing others with their luck,
in contrast to less fortunate sisters.
There is absolutely no harm In re-
joicing over ones luck-or In calling
on others to rejoice with one. but
there is great harm in displaying the
wrong kind of joy.
The complacent, purring attitude,
the little don't you wish you were
me-, air CRATES on the nerves of the
most unselfish and loving friends.
It's impossible to rejoice whole
heartedly with the lucky maiden VINO
is so obviously pleased that shes
gone every one else one better.
Lola had always been q hard luck
sort of kid-never had any gooo
fortune from the time she was 10.
People pitied her, although they
didn't care for her frankly envlous
attitude toward other luckier girls.
She was too bitter.
However, there came a glad DAY
when Prince Charming rode into her
life, complete with q big diamond
solitaire, smart new roadster, q
charming home in the suburbs and
very comfortable income.
Every one rejoiced. Lola's luck had
turned. She was reaping the reward
for long years of patient drudgery. =.
Every one rejoiced at first, but
gradually the rejoicing died down, and
low mutterings of displeasure could
be heard among her friends.
For Lola was not accepting her nap
piness graciously. She was Haunting
1t in the faces of others.
She was openly jeering at them for
their sad plight-they had to work
along like busy bees while she was
bound for charming home and a
life of ease.
From being envious and bitter
about others success, she became
gloating' and triumphant over her
own.
OF course, no one continued to be
glad for her sake. It was more than
human nature could bear.
Her friends turned against her. She
complained resentfully that no one
had a word Of encouragement or
thanksgiving to say to her.
1t was all her own fault. She
couldn't expect others to be glad
with her when she was so unbear-
ably pleased with herself.
Learn to take your good fortune
in a spirit of thankfulness and hui
mility. Don't swagger with success
Accept it graciously, and others will
be happy. with you.

Perhaps neither view is entirely

Warden Acts To Preserve
Fish In Canyon LAX e

PHOENIX = In the interest of
the sport and so that the lake will
not be depleted Of fish, G. M. Will
lard, state game warden, has
issued a statement urging those
who fish in Canyon Lake to put
back into the lake all fish that
are too small to be of value.
The suggestion is made by Mr..
Willard following a report made
to him by D. E, Petit, deputy
state game warden, that during
the past few weeks, inspection OF
the strings of fish taken from
Canyon Lake has disclosed that
many small fish have been taken,
all of which were slightly over the
seven inch limit made by the law,
yet too small to be OF value and
that they should have been left
in the lake for another year.
Some fisherman, Mr.. Willard
said, have urged that the lake be
closed to fishing from two to five
years to give the fish a chance to
grow and propagate, but this can
not be done as under the present
game law since no one has the
authority to close the lake or any
other stream or lake in the state
for the protection of fish.
Under the present conditions,
only two courses are open to i'm
prove fishing at Canyon lake, Mr..
Willard says. and they are as fol
lows: That those who fish at the
lake put the fish they catch in
sack or other container so that
thew will live and when through
fishing, put back into the water,
those too small to take, although
thev may be just past the length
limit, and second to vote for the
repeal of the present game law
so that new and better law can
