gers that are past are not worth think
ing about. They must keep their minds
clear for possible dangers to come.
So Danny's thoughts were not of what
he had been through, but were wholly
of getting home.
He thanked his cousin, Whitefoot,
for all the latter had done for him and
then climbed out of the hollow stump
and once more started for the Green
Meadows and home. AS long as he
was in the Green Forest he was anx-
ious. He didn't feel at home there
He didn't know what to expect. He
imagined all sorts of dangers. But the
instant he reached the edge of the
Green Meadows his heart became light.

Log cabins are always picturesque
and the many antiques usually found
about the place add much to COM

We can't all live in cabins, but we
can satisfy our antique cravings by
giving these ideas some space in our
homes.

many of our readers. This model
measures 29x42 inches and requires
about pounds of rag rug material.
The inner square of triangles is
made first. Four elongated pieces Of
same size form the first row around
center, two short and two long pieces
form the next or second row. Four
pieces of same size from the third row.

DANNY's HOMECOMING

yXIHEN the first Jolly Sunbeams
w came stealing through the Green
Forest, Danny Meadow Mouse began
to be uneasy. He was thoroughly rest
ed and the dangers of the dreadful
night were already forgotten. Per-
haps should not say that they were
forgotten, for, of course, that isn't
quite true. But Danny had quite put
them out of his mind. That is the
way with the little people of the Green

impossible to 60 outside.
If there isn't any rain. between
now and the weeA end, almost all
fresh water should afford good
bass fishing. The streams have
been clearing all week, with the
result that several fine catches
have been called to our attention.
OccOquan Run Good
One in particular, given in or
der to show which lures they are
taking best, was that of DR.. J. B.
Holland, of the Public Health
Service. Early in the week, fish
ing Occoquan Run in back of
Occoquan town. with a bait-cast-
ing rod and plug, he didn't get so
much as a striH2, while Charlie
Schaefer, of Clarendon, who with
a friend were using fly-rods with
a fly and spinner, caught l8 small
mouth, all Y or better, right be-
side him.
On Sunday. at Gunston. the
same lures did the trick. Those
using plugs got little, while fly
fishermen caught from three to
seven large-mouth bass. The water
was clearing fast, and although it
won't be gin-clear over the coming
weekend, it will be in good shape.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1935-08-02

If you listen to the old bay
men the reason for this falling
off in the size of the catches is
the moon. There can be no doubt
that it does have a great deal
to do with the habits of fishes,
but we have always contended
that it will net stop them from
feeding. We always have, and
still do, think that if you can
find the fish they will bite some
time during the "a hours.
Capt. Bob Lee. at Shadyside,
says good catches are not to be
expected until we'll on to the fiji
tenth of the month" Now. +
this is true. and due to the moon,
how can the large catches of big
fish, being made daily on the
Eastern Shore, be accounted for.
Catches Over 200
Capt. Lewis Cox. of Oxford,
Md. who usually fishes the chop
tank, reports average catches OF
over 200. and mostly large fish.
Capt. Dewey Webster. at We
non, Deals Island, reports the
same, with a gradually increasing
number of large weaks, some

SChmarr Looms
As Stellar End
ForCards

When it comes to ace football
ends this season. Connecticut will
point with pride to Hermy
Schmarr, the 20O-pound behemoth
wingman of the Catholic Univer.
sity football team, who resides in
New Britain.
The stocky German lad, who is
built on the proportions of the
beer truck he worked on during
the summer to keep in tiptop play.
ing condition, is slated to be the
outstanding terminal along the
Dixie grid front for 1885.
Possessing a pair of hands with
digits that are powerful and as
certain as fly paper, this New Eng.
lander will go down in C. U. foot.
ball history as one of the greatest
ends ever to gallivant on a Cardi.
nal squad. Schmarr is an expert
pass receiver, agile and speedy as
first-class college end should be.
and literally breaks an opponent
ball carrier in half when he
Smears him with vicious tackle.
The New Britain German lad
graduated from Senior High
School there. later prepping at
Vermont Academy, where he
played on the grid team at center
and tackle, respectively.
Performs at Tackle
During his first season at Cath
Ole u, he performed at a tackle
post, but last fall Coach Dutch
Bergman, recognized his ability
and grace on the practice field.
decided to shift him to end.
Being a natural-born all-around
athlete, Schmarr quickly picked
up the tricks of end play which is
so much an integral part of the
entire Notre Dame style of play.
which C. U. employs, that before
the season was far underway he
was pressing the regular varsity
left end for starting assign
ment. Toward the end of the
season he had clinched the first
string position, beating out two
letter men for the job. In the
final game of the season against
Duquesne University in Pitts
burgh, Schmarr was the out
standing performer on the field.
Although a rather bashful lad,
Schmarr did not hesitate to show
his elation at playing end. He
considers Benny ,Oosterbaan, the
University of Michigan famous
wingman, as his football ideal,
which evidently has much to do
with Schmarr's stellar playing.
Crack Floor Star
Schmarr came to Catholic U.
with the reputation of a crack
prep school basketball star. In
his freshman year at the univer-
sity and in his first season of var.
sity play on the court he lived UP
to his advance notices. In Is
games as a member of the frosh
squad he scored 276 points for an
average of more than 10 points
per game. Last season he easily
clinched a varsity berth, leading
the scorers of the District colleges
with a total of 181 points in Is
games, for an average of nearly IL
points a game. He is expected to
be even better this season.
Schmarr plays forward.
Schmarr is also a fine baseball
player and cavorts around first
base on the unofficial Catholic
University baseball team. If the
university supported regular var
sity nine. Schmarr might have
rivalled the great Wally Pipp, who
played around the initial sack at
Catholic U. 20 years ago.
