Rudderfsh
(Seriola zonata) .
By LILLIAN cox ATHEY.

A LONG the Atlantic Coast Of
n America, Massachusetts, Bay
~ to Gulf of Mexico, the rudder-
4 fish, also called the share
pilot, is we'll known to many fisher
men. 1t is beautiful fish about
feet long. of albuish or silvery brown
above, paler on the sides and beau
tiful pure white below. There are six
broad black bars, forming three large
blotches on the dorsal and two on the
anal fin These bars, while very de-
cided in youth, fade out as the fish
takes on age.
There is not much demand for this
fish as food, and the adult is not a
fish often seen. However, the banded
young in great schools may be seen
from Cape Hatteras to Cape Cod. The
rudderfish and the pilotfish resemble
each other SO much that they are often
taken for each other. But the rudder-
fish is deeper bodied and almost as
thin as butterfish and also has a
more pointed nose. There are seven
spines in the dorsal fin instead of four
and there are 81 to 80 rays, instead
of the 26 or q in the pilotfish. OF
course, you are not going to have
time to count spines. But the gen.
eral idea will be conveyed to you that
the rudderfish is the one you are see
ing, or the pilotfish, because you will
have a general idea OF comparisons.
In the Gulf of Maine adult rudder-
fish have not been seen, for years.
Small fry of about IL inches to z
inches long are regular summer visi-
tors at Woods Hole. There are many

ence? How would he meet the obliga-
tion he had entailed? If the painters
were willing to wait until the entire
job was finished Preacher Andrews
was sure the result would awaken the
necessary spark in the hearts of his
church members. But the builders
would want money on Saturday. A
lot of it. He had promised to give it
to them.
Saturday! Between now and then
Preacher Andrews moaned softly to
himself and opened his Bible.
A steeplejack was sliding down the
spire by means of ropes. He reached
the roof below, descended ladders to
the ground and came down the tree
shaded lane toward the parish house.
He was carrying large copper ball.
Preacher Andrews recognized it as
the decoration leading up to the
weather vane on the spire.
Found this and thought you'd like
to see it," the jack explained.
THE copper ball lay open on Preach
er Andrews desk. Inside were
envelopes, newspaper clippings
compact bundle. Preacher Andrews
scanned the clippings. They told of
the spire being blown over almost a
hundred years ago and the response
of parishioners in providing funds to
make repairs. There was another
clipping which mentioned the great
number of worthless banknotes then
in circulation.
Preacher Andrews opened the COM
pact bundle. Inside was a thick stack
of banknotes. with a humorous note
on top, written by the minister OF
that time. These banknotes were
contributed by our parishioners for
repairing the steeple. All are worth
less. proving that even our good
church members are victims of the
bogus currency now in circulation.
Our funds were gladly contrib
uted ="
1t was Saturday noon when Preach
er Andrews got back from Washing
ton. Held tightly in his hand was a
package. The package contained cur
rency which the Treasury Depart
nent had substituted for the alleged
bogus currency. every note of which
had been redeemed by the Govern
ment three months after the death of
the minister who had stored them in
the copper ball
Preacher Andrews walked up the
tree-shaded lane His step was brisk
There was smile on his face. Fear
no longer dwelt in his heart.

ness reposing there beneath the old
naples and horse chestnut tree.
Preacher Andrews sighed deeply.
The church, this house, of worship
this building that had stood and -four
ished for generations was falling into
decay. The spirit no longer cleaned
white in the morning sun. Paint had
peeled from its clapboard walls, leav-
ing ugly blotches. Shutters had lost
their luster-more than one hung
from broken hinge. Thesgrass and
weeds were tall and unattended in
the once spacious common.
Preacher Andrews sighed again.
He thought: 1T needs painting. 1t
needs repairing and fixing up 1t is
becoming an eyesore, disgrace to
the community. The thought sobered
him even more. . Hopelessness dwelt
in his eyes. He had tried so very
hard to organize campaign to raise
the necessary funds. He had ap-
pealed to the community spirit of his
parish. but without success. People
weren't interested in churches these
days. Sunday was no longer a day
for rest and worship 1t was a day
for rushing around the countryside
in automobiles, for attending ball
games and picture shows. day on
which hectic activities were crowd
ed into limited hours.
Standing there with the church be-
fore him Preacher Andrews thought
of years past when this church was
the cepter of the community's ac-
tivity, when raising funds for its
maintenance was a matter OF little
effort. when people responded to a
call because of pride and sense Of
duty and gratuitousness.
If it could be painted" he thought.
IF repairs could be made it would
become landmark that would at
tract attention. People would again
take pride. would again realize how
necessary a church is to a commun-
ity. would attend services, would see
how much they needed faith, some
thing to cling to, an anchor"

Faith. That's what people needed,
and, by jove, that's what he himself
was lacking He, a minister of the
gospel, lacking faith. The thought
startled him. Paint the church; that
was the thing to do. Order the thing
done and trust in his faith in people
and in God that the obligation would
be satisfied. A way would show it

The 2O-year-old sophomore. hailed
