Little Fritzie, daughter of MT. and Mrs. Clarence Zaiser, celebrated her second birthday a week ago Wedney second birthday Wednesday, April 14, by giving Q party and inviting all the children of Takotna.

 The young guests, numbering 23. were too many to seat at the long table at which FritZie held the seat of honor. The balance were served around a smaller table close by-
 4 beautiful layer cake, covered with white frosting and decorated with little red candy flowers and two candles, one red and the other white, burning, was set in front of the two year-old young lady.

The lit tie guests had their choice of pink and white ice cream.

AUGUST 9 IN HISTORY

The most popular sport IN the
United States is not baseball, tootpall
or golf. It is fishing.
That news would be no surprise TO
Izaak Walton, born August 9, 1898,
the London linen-draper who yearned
for wears for green fields and quiet
streams, retired at so to live in the
country. Exultant in his satisfac-
ton, he was inevitably moved to adj
wise others to do likewise. The re-
sultant Complete Angler, or Contem-
plative Mans Recreation, the first
thing he ever wrote, was published
when he was 60. He composed moth
ing else, yet he is one of the worlds
immortal writer's.
Written in the form of dialogues
between anglers, hunters, falconers,
milkmaids. etc., there are observa-
lions on various kinds of fish, their
habits and whereabouts, and the best
methods of securing them. But it is
no mere textbook for fishermen alone.
There are charming descriptions OF
rural scenery, precepts recommending
the practice of patience, humility,
contentment and other virtues; and
old lyrics, songs and ballads, all of
which make it a delightful companion
for the prisoners of>cities.
Expert angler Walton knew little of
fly-fishing, and it was not until 20
years after his Angler was published
that an appendix covering the subject
written by his adopted son, Charles
Cotton.
Typical Complete Angler reflections:
1--WE may say of angling as DR..
Boteler said of Strawberries: Doubt
less God could have made better
bury, but doubtless God never did,"
and so God never did make a more
calm, quiet: innocent recreation than
angling"
mo man can lose what he never
had"
Good company in a journey makes
the way to seem shorter.

ADVERTISING HENDERSON

To the Editor:
1 stepped into the water works Of
flee Saturday and told the book-keep-
er I wished to pay my cider, milk and
water bill.
A broad smile crossed his face as
he told me the amount and gave him
a check for same.
This brings to mind, our city is 60
ing the State one better in the matter
of advertising our Commonwealth.
The state is spending money on this
advertising while we seem to be saw
ing it on filtering material. Those
who stop here will never forget our
drinking water and will tell other
prospective tourists about its strong
flavor.
We can point with pride to the
numerous hydrants and faucets and
tell our visitors to help themselves to
all they want to drink as it is free,
milk, cider and water all in the same
pipe.
We can argue to them they need
not go all over town looking for well
when they want to quench their
thirst or look up farmer to get a
glass of cider and then find a dairy
for drink of milk, but stop anywhere
and draw all three from the same
spigot., thus killing three, not two,
birds with the same stone.
II we pursue our present policy of
let it alone, perhaps some of these tour
lists will remember us so well they will
return but not with their families and
trailers but with lawsuits and shot
guns.
Let's clean it up before that hap
