It's A Tonic

The question that never fails to
be shocking is, "Why go fishing,
when I can buy my fish at the
market?"
To dyed-in-the-wool fishermen
this question may seem foolish how
ever, the psychology underlying the
urge to 60 fishing makes this indeed
an important question.
We moderns, here in America
anyway, are reasonably sure there
will be a next meal-that there will
be meat on the table. Yet fishing
is more important now than it was
in pioneer days The urgency still
has to do with bodily well-being,
but the organ affected is no longer
the stomach; it's the mind.
Doctors tell US that mental dis
turbances, heart ailments and gas
trio disorders are on the increase.
Our bodies seem ill-equipped for
the modern tempo of living. And
with the current world unrest and
our entry into the atomic age we
cannot expect that life will be more
simple or more secure in the near
future. Relaxation is extremely i'm
portant today-it may become more
significant as time goes on.
The man . waiting for that s.
pound crappie to bite has for the
time forgotten his business worries.
He is not like the man who follows
the small white ball around swing
ing frantically at it with a special
bent steel rod. He does not pull out
a card and write down the number
of casts it took to snag the bass
he has just landed. then cuss

Ny JIM RHoDY We
Venerable Bird
BY JIM RHODYE

The grouse has been an inhabitant
OF this continent for mighty long
time. Bones have been found in
caves on both the Atlantic and
Pacific coasts that date back to
the Pleistocene period, some $4,000
years ago. Old campfires reveal
that the grouse was an Indian
delicacy. And even far back Of
that, King Henry VIII in 1881 put
out royal order concerning the
grows" and the grouse tail was
once popular in France as fan.
In fact, the word grouse, itself,
comes from the French and means
spotted bird"
While the bird is most plentiful
in East Tennessee, it is now moving
westward. Quite a few birds were
noted last year in several different
areas of the Cumberland mountains.
The species once blanketed Tennes-
see and Audubon in 1881 reported
birds almost as far south as
Matches, Miss.
Like it's smaller cousin, the bob
white quail, the grouse wasn't
overly-plentiful before the coming
OF the white man. The "brown
bombshell" scorns dense under
growths and thrives only in areas
near open clearings. The white
man, of course, broke up the tim
berland into ideal grouse cover
and the bird became plentiful
The grouse prefers second-growth
cumberland areas that include some
conifers, used for protection against
the elements. Oddly enough, the
bird was once barred from mar
kets in Philadelphia because,
among its items of diet, was the
poisonous laurel. Too, it can eat
poison ivy berries without suffer-
ing any i'll effects.

Return Those Cards!

After the past season, many duck
hunters received franked return
postcards from the regional offices

ice. This marks a new experiment
to obtain more accurate Informal
ton on the waterfowl harvest in
which the individual sportsman
holds the key, according to the
Wildlife Management Institute.
The card simply asks for the num-
Der of days the hunter was afield,
the number of ducks, geese, and
coots bagged, and the state in which
hunting was done. Far better returns
are expected from this method than
from the report cards published in
the magazines and newspapers in
past years. Each of the present
card recipients has been contacted
in the field by federal game man.
agement agent, and the new pro-
cedure requires even less effort.
1t is. however, simple and human
matter to delay filling out report
of this kind and then to forget it
completely. Simple though the in
formation may seem, the data
compiled from the returns is ex-
tremely important to those entrust-
ed with the management of the
waterfowl.
If you received card, take the
few seconds needed to fill in the
blanks and mail it. You will help
yourself to better hunting if you do.

LYNN SAYS:
Give Cake Growing Touch
With These Icing Secrets

Ever try to ice cake that's too
fresh or warm? 1t may break or fall
apart, crack or melt the frosting
if you haven't allowed it to cool
before icing.
It's a mistake to try to achieve
a smooth looking surface when
swirls, ridges or teXtured surface
is far more effective. Use the blade
of a spatula, a fork or the tip Of
a spoon to make the surface inter-
esting.

Keeping Records

Keeping records of your fishing
something few fishermen do
will provide much valuable in
formation for the future. Any sort of
notebook will serve the purpose, and
it would be better if it is small
enough to 60 in your tackle box.
With it there, you'll probably take
the time to note important data
which you might not do after getting
home and storing your gear away.

ton of the wind.

Judges Entitled
To Salary Boost

COLUMBUS, o. -tRl- Atty.
Gen. c. William O'Neill has
ruled that probate-juvenile court
judges are entitled to pay increas-
es in counties where common
pleas court judges got automatic
raises because of population in
creases under the 1850 federal
census.
But O'Neill said the increase
must be within limits of the $500
contributed annually by the state
for salaries of juvenile judges.
O'Neill also said that salaries
of probate-juvenile judges can
not exceed those of common pleas
judges in their counties.
The ruling went to prosecutor
Stanley N. Hustled of Clark
County.
In another opinion, O'Neill held
that probate-juvenile judges now
in office are not entitled to the
same increases authorized by the
last legislature for common pleas
judges when they start new terms.
The opinion went to Prosecutor

Engineering Laboratories Co. The
name later was shorted to Delco
They turned out Delco farm light

supply for rural homes.
During World War I Mr.. Ket-
tering and others formed the Day
ton-Wright Airplane Co. that
supplied most of Americas war
planes. They turned out 1000
planes during a 12-month period
and after the war ended were
fooled UP to make 1000 month
During the war period they also
worked on no-knock gasoline ano

Young Kettering dropped out
of Ohio State University because
of failing eyesight. He became a
post hole digger for the old Star

and soon became foreman. That's
when he got the nickname Boss

Mr.. Kettering was 27 in 1904
when he came to Dayton with an
electrical engineering degree in
his pocket. He went to work for
National Cash Register and soon
was transferred to its inventions
branch.
Then came his first important
invention, the automatic cash
register. This. revolutionized the
industry.
Col. Deeds then was assistant
general manager of National Cash
Register. He and Mr.. Ketterine
worked on their inventions in a
small barn owned by Col. Deeds
One was an improved ignition
system for the then infant auto
mobile industry. Cadillac Motor
Car Co. liked the system, which
replaced the unreliable magnetic.
Built First Self Starter.
Uncle Henry M. Leland, head
Of Cadillac and himself an in
ventor, told Mr.. Kettering about a
friend who had broken an arm and
fractured his jaw in cranking his
car by hand. He asked Mr.. Ket-
tering to perfect self starter.
Others had tried before but with
little success. After months of
failure Mr.. Kettering built one
that would work. Mr.. Leland sent
him an automobile and told him
to install the starter. The car was
to be back in Detroit in one week.
One look told Mr.. Kettering
there wasn't enough room for the
starter he had built. But he met
the deadline by making another
that would fit in the small space
His helpers got no sleep during
the week. Coffee spiked with rum

Who Can Get Increase
In Pay! This Explains
i Under WSB Rules
By jones Morlow
Associated Press Sioff Writer

This explains how employees and
employers can learn what they
need to know about wage raises,
now that the Government has all
wages under control of the Wage
Sterilization Board.
So far WSB has issued Is gen.
eral regulations on wage raises for
individuals and groups of en-
ployes. They are extremely COM
plicated. In one case an employer
can give raise without WSB per-
mission. In others he must get
WSB approval first.
The regulations cut across the
whole field of American work. Be-
cause there are so many different
kinds of businesses, doing different
kn.s of work, and with different
methods of pay, employers and
employees may be puzzled.
What's the\Deal?
An employe may wonder wheth-
er the boss is misleading him wher
he says WSB regulations won't
permit raises. An employer may
wonder whether ne can give raise
and how he goes about it.
The employe and the employer
can go one of these two places for
information:
l. The wage-hour Office nearest
you. There are about 80 such Of
fees of the Labor Department
Wage-Hour Division scattered
around the country. They are not
part of WSB. They're separate
Government agency. But they're
chipping in to help WSB on a
big job.
2. WSB itself has Offices in IA
large cities: Boston, New York,
Philadelphia, Richmond, Atlanta,
Chicago, Detroit. Cleveland, Dali
las, Kansas City, Minneapolis,
Denver, San Francisco and Seattle.
What can you get at the wage
hour offices? Copies of the regu-
lationS, particularly one which ap-
plies to your case, plus examples
