Anglers assure you that this truly
American fish shows the courage
and determination Of our FORE
fathers. They claim that this bass
admits no defeat, recognizes no OBJ
stacle and fights to the end for
his "life, liberty and pursuit Of
happiness"
He is the Joy Of the fisherman
because he has courage, spirit and
a way all hts own of fighting for
his freedom. It does not follow
prescribed pattern, for the bass
seems almost to think at times,
so different are the ways he en-
ploys to rid himself Of the cruel
hunk that in his greed he swallowed.
Experts have found that the large
mouth black bass can be planted
In suitable waters where 1t has
not been Known. It Is an abundant
fish and in its own chosen habitat
1t has many young. When trans
ferred to clear, running streams,
and even to clear, cold lakes, 1t
flourishes. It has a wide range,
as 1t can be found from Lake
Champlain westward to Manitoba
and southwark on either side of
the mountains from James River,
Va, to South Carolina and to the

The water has much to do with
the size of the bass. The maximum
weight is 8 to IL pounds. The
length will be slightly over 20
inches and the circumference of
this size bass will be about II inches.
The economic importance Of the
bass is high, for the food value
is well known and 1t is always in
demand in the markets. This bass
Is never difficult to identify, as it
only slightly resembles the small
mouth, a close cousin. However,
the general color is dark green
above. sides and below a beautiful
greenish silver.
The younger members have a
blackish stripe along their sides

bass takes on age the black lateral
line breaks up and finally fades
until the color Is O uniform dull

The gillrakers are much longer
than the gill-fringes. The dorsal
nm is deeply notched. There are
10 rows Of large scales on the cheek.
You may use Z fly-hook, still bait

attention Of the bass. They are

Privacy Important

Privacy should be the important
consideration in the location OF bed
rooms in a home.
They should open directly on a
common hall, without the need for
passing through any other rooms.
Openings should be planned to pro-
vide for proper placement of beds
and other furniture.

the axis would be separated from the

the Anglo-French front could be
throttled by the threat to march
through Thrace and to complete the
expulsion of Turkey from Europe by
seizure of the Straits.
Outside the axis in Eastern Europe
would stand only Poland, Rumania,

which have received Anglo-French
pledges of assistance in case of at

the Americans. We are quite lawless
lot ourselves. 1t is no use to be self
conceited and pretend we are much
better than other peoples. All through
our history we have gone strong on law
lessness-and even now prominent per-
sons among our most influential classes,
such as business leaders, public officials
and lawyers, illustrate this tendency.
Of course, the prevalent and typical
character of these classes is upright, but
most of our proverbial expressions are
based on the fact that many of the in
fluential and successful specimens of
these three classes are just as dishonest
and oppressive as Nazis or Communists.
And then we have the gall to say we
are overborne and endangered by our
few alien fellow inhabitants Such talk
is nonsense and hypocrisy.
The immigrants in recent decades have
worked as hard to build up the country
as the original settlers did. There
ought not to be any restraints whatever
upon aliens that do not apply to citizens,
especially restraints of a nature that
tend to subvert the Constitution.
My grandfather's grandfather and all
my own grandparents were American
born, but that does not give me any
warrant for decrying and prosecuting
other people simply because God gave
them a different place to be born in.
