Manx Herring Fleet
Ready for Business
With New Admiral
Many Quaint Customs Still
Cling to Industry of
the Isle of Man.
BY the Associated press.


DOUGLAS, Isle of Mantle ManX
herring fleet is all ready for business,
with new admiral.
Sir Claude Hill, governor Of the Isle
of Man, has just appointed Levi Gregor
to be admiral of the fleet--an appoint
ment that has been made yearly for
generations.
The admiral gets G10 a year and his
chief duty is to lead the fleet to sea. II
he is i'll there is a vice admiral, whose
salary Is f5 year.
Many other quaint customs still cling
to the herring industry Sere.
For generations it has been staple
of food on the little island, and it holds
an honored place in its official life.
When the deemsterS, the judges of
the island. take their oath, they swear
to administer the law as rightly as ''the
backbone Of the herring doth lie in the
midst of the fish"
All good people pray for the success
OF their fishermen. The most famous
of Manx bishops, Thomas Wilson, drew
up in the seventeenth century special
herring prayer which Is still said in
every church on the island.
Herrings do not play as great part
in the islanders diet as once. Up to
few years ago, however, it was the GUS
tom of every diligent housewife to buy
and pickle several hundred herrings
each Autumn. Then they were strung
on rod and placed against the sunny
side of the house.
Potatoes and herring, boiled together,
made the principal meal of the Manx
people during the Fall and Winter.
