THEIR FIRST FISH
BY WILLIAM T. ELLIS

Grandfather rugged up simple
fishing tackle, with bobbers, for
seven year old Turk, and four
year old Tim. Tney repaired to
the point Of Blue Heron Point, and
to their dazed delight, caught sun
fish after sunfisn, in quick suc.
cession. The thrill of seeing ones
bobber tremble, and then disap.
pear beneath the surface, with the
quick pull that lands the highly
colored little fish in the boat, to

harmed, is a delight which every
fisherman knows.
Little boys catch little fish. The
fighting big fellows await them in
the future. The art of fishing is
learned little by l:ttle-as is the
art of living. Before the catching
Of gamy bass and trout and pike
and salmon comes the harvesting
OF minnows and roach and sun
fish and catfish and cells.
And before manhood's triumphs
OF character and achievements
come the training and experiences
