Uncle Roy's Corner
a Youth who siens his name

A youth who signs his name -
v. L. BehAn writes:
could you possibly help me out
on this question? I was asked II I
knew where fish fly out Of the water
and sun themselves in the trees.
II thought 1t must be Guam, Aus
tra1ia or Turkey, and I think they
are called walking Ash I hope you
can help me out with this one"
In answering this letter, I must
first make plain that different kinds
Of hsh are concerned. The so-called
flying hsh" never 60 ashore. I saw
scores Of flying flsh fitting above the
waves while I was crossing the In
dian Ocean. That ocean Is only
one Of three where flying hsh live.
Our first record of them came from
persons who saw them above the At
lantic centuries ago. On the Pacific
Ocean they are fairly common.
within q range Of 1,500 miles Of the
Equator.
Flying fish may be seen within
easy range Of Guam and many other
Pacific islands. Many times they
have been watched by sailors and
passengers on vessels sailing toward,
and away from, the Hawaiian Is.
lands.
Flying fish have long, wide fins
which grow from their backs.
These are fastened at places which
would be shoulders to the fish, II
flsh had shoulders. After the fish
leave the water, they use the wings
for gliding flights. They fly to es-
cape attacks from enemies such q
tunnies.
There are several kinds Of walk
ing or climbing" fish. They are
able to stay out of water for many
minutes, sometimes for several
hours.
As one example of such fsh, We
may take the climbing perch. This
fish lives in ponds, small lakes and
rivers. Many OF them swim in the
Ganges River IN India. Others are
found in fresh waters OF Java,
Sumatra and several other islands Of
the East Indies.
When water Is low in q pond, q
climbing perch is likely to leave 1t
and start an overland trip to an.
other body Of water. This fish has
kind Of lung which Is used for
breathing air.
Most Of the travelling by climbing
perch Is in the coolness Of night.
Yet they have been seen struggling
across fields In broad daylight. BY
bending their bodies and using their
f1ns they can make progress over.
land.
Ginning perch have been reported
as climbing low trees. They do not,
however, want to sun" themselves.
They like best to be In cool, wet
grass while on land.

Broad Background

have metioned his genuine desire to see and
know people. In June, 1913, we both attended
conference of governors at Columbus, O. One day
we were taken on tour of great glass factory
there. From the first, we couldn't keep track Of
Tom Dewey. Time after time runners had to be
sent back to find him. Each time he was engrossed
in conversation with workman at some machine
asking questions, listening, learning.
Toward the end of the tour, | made some
joking reference about this habit of his. He
turned on me earnestly with that tremendous en-
thusiasm which is so much part of him.
Earl" he demanded do you know how to
make glass;"
! had to confess that didn't. He didn't know,
either at the time he arrived there But he had
found out
Here's how it's DONE" he began For the next
10 minutes he not only explained the mechanical
processes but sketched some of the history and the
drama of glass, mentioned the names and nick
names of the workers he had met, told how much
they earned, how they lived and what they thought
about important national and international affairs.
Most of us were fairly exhausted when the
long tour was ended, but Tom Dewey was still
going strong. He has vast reservoirs Of reserve
power-much more than he expends at any time
or in any situation. He reminds me of runner
who, leading the pack still has untouched energy
for the final sprint.
