a to the extent he finally gave
up all other pursuits in life to devote
his time to that sport.
In the early Summer he flshed in
West Virginia, later he went to Kansas
and during the entire Winter he
basked in the Florida sunshine, al
ways with fishing rod in his hand.
Many fishermen have their favorite
fresh-water bait. Like the others,
Washington had his. It consisted of
toads. which he handled tenderly until
time to attach them to the hook.
One day he had particularly fine
specimen of the bait. He would catch
nothing less than a four-pound bass,
he thought as he cast the hook into
the water.
GraSping the rod firmly, he sat
down to wait for his prey. Minutes
passed. Then an hour. Still no bite.
Queer he thought as he shifted
his position. Then he looked down.

The mobilization of 100000
Italian soldiers for war grows
directly out of the Franco Italian
pact, concluded on Jan. 5 in Rome.
1t is significant that the major
centers of mobilization for the war
in Abyssinia are in the most impor-
tant industrial districts, such as
Milan, Naples, Turin, Florence,
Rome. 1t is also in these places
where the rumblings of discomfort
have been mounting the greatest.
The aim of Mussolini is to shove
these disconnected workers into far

the world anti-Soviet war front.
