Let's Go Fishing
FISH REMOVED
FROM ICE PACKS
State Conservation Group
Asks information on
Situation.
BY LEFTY LEE
Times Fishing Editor

The hunting season is in full
swing and the wardens are busy in
the field checking over licenses and
bag limits. They report that game
is plentiful and that, in general,
sportsmen are keeping within the
law. The usual complaints of tax
ing fur-bearlng animals before the
the season opened appeared and
the wardenS arrested forty-two of
these violators and conf1Scated 300
pelts, consisting of red and gray
fox, raccOOnS, opoSsum, mink,
skunk and muSkrat.
Each year number of fish are
killed by being stranded in lakes
that freeze during the cold weather,
so the wardens of the state con-
servatlon department are making
a special effort to rescue these fish.
If you know OF any such ponds, get
in touch with the conservation de-
partment at once and Wardens will
rescue the fish Immediately. One
rescue crew near Seymour, consist
ing Of Captain Roll, Wardens Her
ron and Thompson, rescued eighty
Two bass, 800 blue gill and crappie
and 300 catfish from pond on the
Mellencamp farm near Seymour
and placed them in White river.
Wardens White, Stone, Riley and
Merideth have been busy on the
White, Wabash Eel and Tippe-
canoe rivers dragging for fish traps
and have destroyed sixty traps and
nets. Numerous traps and nets
also were picked up by other wardens.
There now are 325 active conser-
walton clubs in the state of Indiana,
ranging in membership from five to
500, totaling in all about 10000
members.
The monthly report of the conSer-
walton department shows a total of
1853 arrests for violations as follows:
Use and possession Of traps, nets,
spears, gigs, ETC., 16; fishing and
hunting without a license, ID; pos

OF the 1873 arrests, 100 were con-
victed, twelve were dismissed and
sixteen cases are pending. The
amount of fines and costs paid were

the school funds in the counties
where the arrests are made and SIS

PECULIAR ACCIDENTS

Some most interesting facts concern
ing freakish accidents are related in
Popular Science Monthly, illustrating Vol
taire's saying that 1T is the danger least
expected that soonest comes to u.s." Among
others he relates the following:
P. Virgins, Kansas aviator, was bitten
by rattlesnake that had somehow gotten
into his plane, while flying at an altitude
of about mile. but landed and obtained
treatment in time to save his life.
Caesar Beltram of Lions France, was
struck by lighting five times during his
lifetime, yet finally died of pneumonia.
Some years ago General Castiffiano,
Nicaraguan revolutionist, was struck by a
falling meteor while sitting in his tent one
night andIwas killed. His sliperstitious sol
diers believed that the Almighty had thus
shown disapproval of their cause, so they
abandoned the.revolution.
Mathematician have figured that an
American will be struck by meteor about
once every $500 years on an average.
They will also calculate that person living
to the age of 10 has one chance in 1000
of being struck by lightning.
About 1000 persons are injured in
bathtubs to every one hurt in railroad acct
dents About $4,000 Americans are killed
every year by accidents occurring in and
about their homes, about as many as are
killed by automobiles.
Most ironical of the accidents emu
merated by our writer was that in which
man was painfully injured blythe falling of
a horseshoe he had nailed over. his door for
luck.

THE MERCY SLAYER
(st. Augustine Record)

y
Acquittal of young man in Atlanta,
on trial because he killed a beloved member
of his family who was dying in torture of
an incurable disease, brings up subject
that has been a subject of controversy
probably ever since men and women have
fought to conquer disease and pain. In
ancient days when survival of the fittest''
was the law, many of the weak, the sick,
the pain-wracked, were deliberately put
out of the way, so that they might not i'm
pede the progress of the fit, the physically
strong.
In this era Of civilization, we do many
things in the name of mercy that are not
merciful at all, and one is the prolongation
of life in the wake of terrible suffering and
certain death.
Because one never knows to what any
leniency in this respect might lead, the law
has to be strict. To permit loophole,
would give many an INSCRIPTIONS or mer-
cenary man or woman an opportunity to
end the life of some relative from whose
death they might expect to benefit. The
sacredness of human life is carefully
guarded by medical science and by the
law.
But one can realize the effect upon a
sensitive person of seeing prolonged and
terrible suffering endured by loved one,
with no hope of release save through the
Gateway of Death. Long brooding; and
consideration of what one might come to
think as being ones duty in the matter
might easily bring about such an action as
that revealed through the Atlanta court
case. In this instance the man was ex-
onerated, because doctors testified the
blow could have FASTENED the death of
their patient by only short time.
It will be remembered in ''Sorrell and
Son. by Warwick Deeping, that the son,
physician, took what he knew to be the
merciful step and ended his fathers suf-
ferings. Many stories have been conferred
about this theme, but probably none more
beautifully handled than this.
It is a subject on which much could
be said and written. But to come back
to the right and wrong of it, we must con-
slider the way in which the law and medical
science usually look at things of the kind.
To take matters in ones own hands, entails
too great responsibility for the average
person to carry, no matter if mercy be the
keynote.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

This nature is poetic, sensuous,
sympathetic and dexterous. 1t is
good endowment for an actor.
The disposition is kind; fidelity
and affection are prominent char
acteristics, and many friends will
be attracted by the personal
charms; yet very few persons will
ever know its true value. Some
degree of fortune may accrue TO
this nature, but it is rather too
generous for worldly success.
