With chose to glory gone,
For all the servants of our King

The narrow stream of death;
One army of the living God
To His command and we bow
Part of his host have crossed the

And part are crossing now.

OF all the fish to be planted into
American waters, brown trout have
Jared well and prospered most sat-

fishermen. Two species were orig

the Loeb Leven and the German
brown. Today they can hardly be
told apart.
At first they were planted in
the warm waters of the Eastern

borders. Today. brown trout fish

slope and in the Rocky Mountain
area.
Brown trout are the hardest fish

the right fly placed before them
receives immediate attention.
Flies seem to be a problem with
brownies as well as anglers. Some
are monstrosities that would not
fool an intelligent fish. The old
standbys, black gnat, gray or brown
hackle and Royal Coachman, still
appear to be favorites. But little
observation will reveal that each
section of the country, has its
favorite fly.
If you see some rising to the
surface for a fly, it is apparent the
brownies reside in the waters. It
is exciting to watch the trout as
it follows the fly. Sometimes he
comes up and sticks his head out
to seize his prize.
During the heat of the day,
brownies love to lie under brush
piles along the shore, under over
hanging banks among tree roots
and log jams.
Over 300 per cent Of the food
of these trout Is comprised Of
nymphs. When feeding on flies on

MEDIC SAYS
NEGROES NEARER
TRUE HUMANS

JOHANNESBURG, South Afri-
ca - (ANP) - Believers in white
supremacy have some come in for
a good deal of ribbing lately in
South Africa's English language
press.
A lecturer in anthropology at
Witwatersand University here,
DR.. M. D. w. Jeffreys, came out
in public that the Negro has a
better heart than the white man
and that he is nearer the true
human type.
The anthropologist was quoted
as saying that a number of Negro
hearts have a large extra branch
from the left coronary artery. SIN
other words" he went on, "the
Negro heart has better blood
supply. The European heart is a
MAMMALIAN one, whereas the Ne
gro's and advance, an improve
ment."
DR.. Jeffreys pointed out that all
mankind sprang from a common
dark ancestor, perhaps in east
central Africa. But he added that
while the White mans bones are
comparable in texture and Struc-
ture to those of mammals, the
Negro has bones that are strong
er and lighter and a skull that is
thinner and stronger.
He theorized that the relative
lnfrequency of coronary throm-
bosis among Negroes might be at
tributed to the improved heart"
In this instance DR.. Jeffreys
did not go unanswered. Another
doctor asserted the real reason
why so many more White men
die of coronary thrombosis is that
the White think harder and eat
more.
The implication of all this is
that the Negro in the long run
will be better able to stand the
stress and strain of modern civil
lization than the White man.

NEW YORK - (ANP)-Three
groups are recorded among the

with a membership of 100000 or
more, according to Yearbook of
American Churches, published by
the National Council of the
Churches of Christ in the United
States.
The book presents 1851 statis-
tistics on the 20 largest religious
bodies in the Continental limits of
the United States with $4,000
members or over.
The National Baptist Conven-
ton, U.S.A., Inc. the leading
body ranked fifth nationwide,
with a membership of 4,467,779 in

churches.
However, it is generally under
stood that Negro churchgoers are
not limited to big six Negro
groups. The Methodist Episcopal
church (ME) embraces Negro and
white churches and for several
years has boasted high Negro lay
officials and bishops. Negroes
hold prominent positions in the
major branches of the Presby-
terian faith, and other protestant
and Catholic groups have report
ed increased Negro memberships
in the past 10 years.
