BY LILLIAN COX ATHEY.

Being In hot water all the time
has a different meaning for these
fish than the expression might lead
you to expect. 20 be in even cool
water would soon prove a fatal
experince.
When I was told about these
small fish that flourish in the hot
waters of Death Valley, I thought
of water heated by the sun to q
degree that is much warmer than
most fish can endure. But I soon
found out that the water in the
waterholes of our Western deserts
is SO hot that a human being would
come out "parboiled" where he to
try to take a bath in the same
pool.
An arid and desolate appearing
waste Of land does not seem likely
to produce fish, yet there are some
very lively ones and plenty of
of them, too, residing in these
superheated naturally formed bath
tubs.
Those who have seen the swift
swimmers darting hither and thither
in the hot water, rub their eyes
several times to be sure they are
not seeing things. Then. because
they have to be shown" the water
is tested and is it hot! Enough to
boil an egg hard in a very short
time, indeed.
The small killifshes, that have
been seen in the Death Valley re-
gion and are quite numerous in
Saratoga Spring toward the most
southern part Of the valley, have
been, until recent years, unknown.
Scientists today interested in study
ing the reasons why fish are found
in some locations, have after care
ful investigation come to the con-
clusion that these small residents
of the "hot spots" are the last
descendants Of distant geological
age. Surely the climate and tenn
perature of the water have changed
much since those days.
Once you are on the trail of an
animal that chooses to be different,
you are never satisfied until you
find some more. This can be done
in the case of fish that flourish in
hot water.
There is highly advertised spot
known in Mexico as the Desert of
the Cinnamon, where you can see
myriads of little fishes in hot water.
They get about with lightning like
speed. Whether they are seeking

Detroit Wins Soft
Ball Championship
Final Score SO

Last Sunday the Detroit entry
in the final playoff series won
their second and final game over
the Salem team at the home field
of the Salem entry with the score
at the end of the nine innings
showing the totals to be 8 runs
for Detroit and 6 for the Salem
team.
Opinions Of most of the eve
witnesses seem to arrive at the
conclusion that the game in itself
was a poor game with loose field
ing on both teams running up the
ttotal of runs on both sides. Err
rols played most prominent
part in the scoring of the majori.
ty of the runs collected by the
teams.
Little can be said of the indi-
vidual starring as the hitting was
rather evenly divided all through
the contest. -.
| Hermann, the Detroit pitcher
again lead the two man duel be-
tween himself and Pauline of Sa-
lem when he struck out eleven
of the Salem batters. The bit OF
work was however offset by the
fact that he also walked 7 men
when Pauline struck out l man
and walked only one. The game
1.as played on a good field and
tic day was all that could be
desired for the playing of SO i'm.

tend our congratulations to the

losers and hope that they will try
