BY Ted Resting

You don't catch trout unless
weather, water and trout mood are
favorable, claims naturalist DR.. Will
liam ]. Long. He believes that wea-
Their changes can answer the ang-
ler's problem: Why do trout stop
rising, all at once, and as suddenly
become ravenous again?
1t is known that trout are extreme
ly sensitive to air pressures that
foretell storm or calm. The accept
ed theory, that this sensiiveness is
due to nerves along the lateral line,
fails to explain why trout feast un-
der one air pressure and fast un-
der another. Nerves do not origi-
nate message, they only carry it
from some other organ to the brain
or motor muscles.
DR.. Long thought that the real
explanation of trout behavior in a
storm was to be found in the air
bladder of the fish. To test his theo-
ry, he explained the air bladders
of two or more trout, of practically
equal size, taken at various times Of
low, high and medium barometric
pressure.
From these he drew three biolo-
gic conclusions: That any change
of air pressure, that is a rising or
falling barometer, has its inevitable
effects on the air or gas within the
elastic bladder, that this air con-
tent is static in fair weather, and that
by contraction or expansion it
changes a little when the barometer
goes up or down.
From these conclusions it appears
that when the air bladder of trout
begins to expand under decreasing
air pressure, he feels some unease;
whereupon he seeks hidden sane
tuary. Like all other natural crea-
lures, he goes looking for food only
at an hour when he feels perfectly
fit.
And no matter what skill and
fine tackle you have, unless you
hit that lucky hour, you probably
won't get any fish. But now you
can blame it on the weather without
troubling your conscience.

BRAVE ENOUGH TO TELL

Il
THE TRUTH
1.-THE first blessing in the study of
L this obscure Bible character.
Micaiah. is to discover a man who
was brave enough to tell the truth
when he knew 1t was unpopular.
1t Is always the best policy to tell
the truth. though there be many in
today's world who deny this princi-
pie. It Is not enough to say that we
, will tell the truth because 1t pays.
That is true, but it is by-product
OF doing what is right. One must
tell the truth because 1t is right to
tell the truth. Men swear with their
hand upon the Holy Bible that what
they testify is the truth and nothing
but the truth. But. alas, such men
often tell anything but the truth.
They have been carefully coached
to evade the truth.
Micaiah told the truth, because he
was speaking for God. 1t hurt him,
but 1t must needs be the truth which
he spoke to Ahab.
TRUTH DIsREGARDED
A HAB scorned the words Of Mi
4 a caiah, and ordered him thrown
back to prison. But scarcely had the
prophet of God been thrust again
into prison, until Ahab was bleeding
to death in his chariot
Men not only take their own lives
In their hands when they disregard
the truth, but, like stubborn Ahab,
they bring grief to countless others.
Had Ahab needed the words Of
truth which Micaiah proclaimed,
Ahab might have lived. Indeed, had
Ahab needed the words of truth, he
might have recovered Ramoth, and
more beside.
Truth may appear forever on the
scaffolu, wrong forever on the
throne, but time always proves a
hard taskmaster to the man who re-
CARDS wrong instead of truth. >
THE SOURCE OF TRUTH
TOD is the source Of truth-all
" truth. If we miss this, we miss
the lesson of the lesson Note the
words of the golden text, "As the
Lord liveth, what the Lord saith
unto me, that will I speak," said
Micaiah.
Let us remember that 1t was God
speaking through his prophet. Ahab
could not have doubted that Micaiah
was speaking what God had told him
to speak. But Ahab did not want to
baor tho ty,,<b To ,,,,o<nl - Loar

him in his evil plan.
God speaks the first and last word
on every subject, because God is
truth. II am the TRUTH" said Jesus.
And he went on to say, aye shall
know the truth. and the truth shall
make you free"
THE PENALTY OF DIsOBEYING
