BUSHELS OF DEAD FISH
FOUND IN THE PATAPSCO

OthclaIS are conducting an inves-
tigatiOn in an endeavor to trace
the cause and fix the responsible
ity for the contamination of the
North Branch of the Patapsco
river near Cedarhurst, on the w.
Nd. Ry.. causing the death of
thousands of fish. This is said to
have happened two or three times
in the past three years Charles
F. Eckart, of GlyndOn, who was
informed of the conditions by res
idents near the river, notified Mr.
Frank Bentz, chief clerk of the
Maryland State Game and Inland
Fish Commission, who dispatched
deputy game Wardens to make an
investigation. They declared that
they had found literally bushels of
dead fish in pools and lining the
banks and that thousands of prize
black bass and catfish and suckers
had been killed. In one large pool
above the bridge on the road from
Finksburg to ReisterstOwn, it was
estimated that more than 1000
dead fish were floating.

eth the way of the righteous: but the
way of the ungodly shall perish.-Psalm
10
The most important thing in life
is living. That is not an attempt to
make a striking statement, but
sincere effort to present a fact
which too often escapes our atten-
ton We are so concentrated upon
making living, or making money,
or making a name for ourselves,
that we often fail to make a life.
God is more concerned about what
we are than what we do.
There are only two ways-the
right way and the wrong way. We
build our life either on the true
foundation or the false. There is no
middle way, no half-good founda-
ton. We must choose, and it is
either one or the other.
1. Two Roads Cps. u.
Scripture is not at all concerned
about mixing figures of speech, so
long as the truth is graphically ex-
pressed and fully understood Here
it speaks of man walking in the
way, tree planted by river, the
chaff of the threshing floor; and then
returns to the figure of walking in
the way. All of these present the
same truth, for essentially the idea
is that of the two ways in which
men walk.
l. Choosing the Way (vv. /, 4, g..
Even the choice of his way of life
marks man as either blessed or
wicked. Some seem to think that
they can choose or just drift into
the wrong way and still have hope
that all will be well. Their choice,
or their failure to choose, has put
them IN the one class or the other.
Making a choice is a vital and
serious matter. Let US do it care
fully. Walking in the counsel or
philosophy of the wicked soon re-
suits in man lingering in the way
of sinners, and before he is aware
Of it he will find himself so at home,
that he will sit among them and
scott.
2. Continuing in the Way wv. pa
The man who will permit the law
Of God to control every detail of
life night and day will never &C

thing he does. Observe that to pros

given one to do.
Much that this world calls pros.

while at the same time some lives

UNCLE RAYS CORNER

An old-time English explorer, Sir
Stamford Raff1eS, made this note
about an event during a voyage
more than a century ago:
"We have made an amusing dis
covery. A sailing fish, about 10 or
u feet long, hoists mainsail, and
often sails in the manner of a native
boat. 1t moves with considerable
swiftness."
Sir Stamford was writing about
fish which are much better known
today than in his time. They are
called "sailfish," and are relatives
of swordfish.
A sailflsh has a large fin which
rises above it's back to height OF
about two feet This fin is low in
front. just behind the head. but
goes up at a steep slant to full
height. The fin has a length OF
four to six feet along the back.
The statement about the sail
being "hoisted" is quite true. While
the fish swims under water, the fin
is folded and lowered until it fits
snugly enough to a groove in the
back.
When the sailfish rises to the sur
face, the fin goes up, There is little

be borrowed by the newspapers of

The bidding was little ambitious,
but the same contract was reached
at each table. In each case the
opening lead was heart, and
South won the first or second trick
with the king of hearts.
With eight tricks in top cards,
most declarers ran the diamonds
and then finessed the jack of clubs.
That lost, of course, but those de-
clarers were set only one trick since
the running of the diamonds had
Obliged East to discard some hearts.
A bigger set occurred at one table
where the South player took the
club finesse before the diamonds.
East took eight tricks!
The successful declarer ran the
diamonds and was struck by the
fact that East found it necessary to
discard three hearts. Apparently
East has a club holding wrich

assumption. South discarded club

to lead clubs to the dummy's ace

in while some mysterious force
is released in the world that con
POUNDS the most learned.
That is what happened on Eas-
ter. Very early in the morning
there began strange disturbances
Of devices relying on electric i'm
pulses. BY midmorning they had
become so severe that telephone
communication with Europe had
been cut off completely. Short
wave radio connection with ships
at sea was impossible, and broad
casting companies, frantically call

complete blackout.
Airlines were hampered by in
ability to make short wave con-

printers used TO send news by wire
to thousands OF newspapers began
writing all kinds Of gibberish.
Telegraph service was disrupted.

proportions caused by the appear

demned themselves to bad fortune
by their mistakes.
Many younger people condemn
ed themselves to lives of difficulty
by their hasty rush to get married
before they were ready to take on
family burdens. In their hurry
they often picked the wrong mate,
and a long procession of troubles
followed. Or, having married be-
fore they had saved any money,
they were soon deep in debt.
Many of these supposedly un-
lucky folks have sQuandered their
money ON foolish vices. The
money they threw away in pros
porous times would have pulled
them through lean days.
Many of them never worked in
any intelligent or industrious man
ner. They we're just pay drawers,
people whose thought was only on
the pay envelope and quitting
time. They never made an effort
to show special intelligence, alert
ness and skill. If they had tried

useful, they might have kept the

ward the poles. In the process,
electrical communications systems
were added.
These disturbances caused by
sun spots once thought to be
cyclonic storms are familiar to
astronomers; but their nature has
not been solved definitely except
for the known magnetic forces. 1t
is possible. as one expert suggests
that in the past az severe an cleo
tT'ical bombardment as Casters
may have been experienced with
out man knowing it; for now that
there is so much new electrical
equipment, the effects are imme-
djateIy and disastrously apparent.
Perhaps some day the world may
be able to take advantage OF the
tremendous energy which nature
in many mysterious ways releases.
But now man can only wonder at
it.
