A NEW fish has entered the
" waters Of Chesapeake Bay.
II It is called rabbit FISH" A
4 n fish of this species was landed
recently by Mrs. P. A. Hayward, who
was fishing with her husband. The
captain of their boat called it q
silver blow" When the fish was
described to us we thought 1t was
a black bonito. Hayward went to
the Bureau Of Fisheries and talked
with Isaac Ginsburg, aquatic biologist,
who at first was a bit puzzled. Finally
declared it was what Is known as q
rabbit fish" that belongs to the
puffer family. He said it Is very
rare in Chesapeake Bay and more
common farther South.
The largest Of this species on record,
according to GinSburg, Is 9-pounder
The largest recorded landed in Chesa-
peake Bay weighed 6 pounds. The
fish caught by Mrs. Hayward is said
to have weighed liz pounds. 1t Is
described as being very Black on the
back with silver stomach, which
ywells when taken from the water.
q. e. Blair, who has Summer
home at Tall Timbers, told us the
other day that the rockfish are COM
mencing to strike off his place and
some good catches are being landed
Sunday night he hooked 10, weighing
from 4 to 91a pounds. He reports
that last Friday Capt. ]. L. Colds
borough landed eight, Saturday he
made another catch of IL, and on
Sunday he returned with 81.

anglers, visited the mouth Of the
Rappahannock last Sunday with two
companions. They started out at 4
O'Clock in the morning and flshed
until 4 In the afternoon. When the
tide changed about noon the black
bonito commenced to strike and they
landed four, ranging from 1s to IS
pounds. They fshed OF Windmill

Bob Pyle, local angler, has returned
from another trip to his old fishing
grounds on the Chickahominy River.

he found the water higher than he
had ever seen it, but in spite of that
he landed number of good size black
bass one day and the next day fishing
z or 8 miles downstream he landed

tipped the scales at 1411 pounds. He
also caught q number Of smaller rock

occupies is meager compared to
the high office he once held.
Gen. Hugh Johnson, former

man that was the center of ma.

seen his power wane until his
occasional quirps are received

tell almost everyone to take
straight and narrow road to
that spot where cold WGOeS are

Like the rest, however, Ickes
apparently has overstepped the
boundaries prescribed for even
the most high.
And the watchers are waiting
for confirmation of the rumor
that when he is eased out of
Public Works he will resign

bilities which h. w. Van Loon
will never allow me to get as
far up in this world of ours
as the son of old Signor
d'ISraeli.
But when I was young-let
us say some 40 years ago-I
think it was safe to say that
this world was still a world
of men, and women were mere
ly tolerated as a sort of un-
avoidable biological necessity.
They were all right. provided
they remained in their proper
place, and that proper place
was in the kitchen and in the
nursery or acting as the guardi-
ans of their husbands comfort
and welfare.
The mills of the gods grind
slowly and such ideas, once
firmly planted in the human
mind, are as obstinate as the
dandelions in my front yard.
No matter how hard we try
to get rid of them, sooner or
later they will bob up again
in the most unexpected places,
and it will probably take a
century and a half before my
grandchildren will finally be
able to say, There! that lawn
now begins to look like some
thing"
SOME PRIVILEGES
7 was thinking of this when
a few days ago I hesitatingly
and rather haltingly offered
the suggestion that in the
year 1885 women might at
least be treated like human
beings, who had a right (both
natural AM constitutionaD to
decide their own fate. I
realize that women have now
reached a point where they can
freely compete with men,
within the realm of business
and the arts, and are allowed
to smoke cigarettes in public
places and on the top of a
bus.
But these privileges are still
essentially class privileges. In
the upper classes women are
allowed to work because then
they are off mems hands for
at least part of the day, and
within the 10 Ier ranks they
have got to work because the
men C'the heads of the
family as we used to call
them) need the money they
bring in. And even then, it
is safe to say that this little
bit of freedom is still restricted
to a very small percentage
Of our population.
I sometimes have to listen to
enthusiastic ladies who grow
very eloquent upon the subject
of the Melting Pot. I wonder
how many of them have a first

Test One-He ordered the

Those Good Old Days Left
Much To Be Desired
By T. E. Powers

good old days" about which we
are apt to hear a great deal
during times of depression,
then recommend you to
peruse some of the few auto.
biographical data that have
come down to us from the days
of the earliest settlers, the days
in which those happy colonial
mothers were supposed to have
enjoyed such a full and ripe
existence.
There is one little book es-
pecially that will provide you
with many happy hours. It is
the diary of a respectable citi-
zen of Cambridge, Mass, in the
latter half of the Seventeenth
century. That man surely knew
his place in life, and he also
knew woman's place in his own
particular life and in that of
his male neighborS.
He was intent upon having a
large family. regardless of con.
sequences. His wives could look
after the consequences. The
first three died in childbirth
and, if I remember correctly,
they had left him with only five
surviving children. So he mar
ried again and continued the
good work.
But he was a man of feeling.
And so on Sunday (as he proud.
ly reports) he used to go into
his private crypt (for he was al
so a man of wealth and could
afford to bury his departed ones
in vault of his OWN and spend
a most profitable afternoon ar
ranging and rearranging the
coffins of his defunct spouses
and their little cherubs. He tells
about it with great JUNCTION,
and how it fortified and
strengthened him in his duties
as a citizen and the head of a
family.
But that was only a detail,
for his complete satisfaction
with life did not come until
much later. Then one of his
boys, a youngSter of eleven or
twelve, fell out of a tree. and
hurt his hip so badly that he
was doomed to be a cripple for
life. Did the father bewail the
fate of the poor kid? BY no
means. He gratefully accepted
it as a warning "a slightly
roundabout warning) from
Heaven to think of his own sin.

time of his many sins and short
comings.
POSITIVE CURE
Does that type survive?
Reader, the woods and the
mountains and the plains are
still full of them. If every
woman who had ever met that
sort of male were to write me
a letter, Postmaster Farley
could retire for life. And until
that type of male shall have
