Brother Angler! j
One the sea’s rarest and oldest
fish is the deep-sea angler. The
largest males are 1 to 2 inches
long; the largest females, about
3 feet. Displaying a monogamous
tendency almost incredible, t ie
male attaches himself by a little
fringe of flesh to his mate’s body
and proceeds to grow there, be¬
coming entirely parasitic. The
female has a mouth almost a foot
wide, over which dangles a long
growth with a beautiful tassle-
like affair at the end. This natur¬
al fish lure has a light in its tip,
furthermore, to make doubly at¬
tractive. Quitely confident that
things will come her way, the
female just lies on the sea floor
with her mouth open, dangling
her luminescent lure. As the
smaller fish swim toward the
lure, she swishes it out of the j
way, and that’s that. The female
is fed directly; the male, through
his now tightly grown alimen¬
tary canal, being fed indirectly.
Blackbird Pies
It has been suggested that star¬
lings, prepared in “blackbird
pies,” make quite an edible dish,
and that idea, if passed around,
may take some of them out of
circulation. They are getting to
be a real nuisance in most of the
Southern States.
Cigarettes for Measuring Fish
It might save you a fine, and
besides, it isn’t sportsmanlike to
take undersize fish. When you
are caught without a rule re¬
member that the length of any
standard cigarette i s 2 3-4 inches
and that of the new “longies ’
is 3Vi inches. Lay your cigar¬
ettes end to end beside the fish
in doubt and add the total.
Only One American Breed
Sportsmen in general don't
seem to know that most of our
sporting breed of dogs are “fur-
riners.” The Chesapeake Bay re¬
triever is an American breed.
Some handlers say the Kentucky
Foxhound and some other dogs
are also American breeds, but
there seems to be some doubt a-
bout them.
Jonah of the Fish World
The Lufkin News, an East
Texas daily newspaper, says that
Jonah, who lived to tell about
being swallowed by a whae, had
nothing on this minnow. Three
weeks after the minnow flipped
out of the stomach of a crappie
being swallowed by a whale, had
Joseph W. Rodes of San Anaonio,
the tiny fish is swimming about
in a small tank and thriving on
malt meal. How long the min¬
now had been in the crappie’s
stomach nobody knows. It has
been named Jonah.
Quail Lore
A large percentage of quail
nests are located within 30 feet
from the edge of a field. If there
are not too many roaming cats
and dogs, the quail seem to pre¬
fer nests along roads, paths and
occasionally close to dwellings.
Valuable Cows
William Mercer, who lives
near Middlebourne, West Virgin¬
ia, noticed that his cows’ noses
were greasy and that their milk
had a gaseous odor. Then he
found oil covering his spring
and gas bubbling up, so he built
a dam. Now he is collecting a-
bout a barrel of crude a day.
“First time I ever heard of an
old cow finding an oil well!”
Mercer remarked.
Lone Wolf
The expression ‘Lone Wolf” is
said to come from the fact that a
wolf usually mates for life. Upcn
the death of its companion, an
older male of female seldom
mates again or joins a family
group on forays. Wolves are con¬
sidered barbaric—but the divorce
courts of this “civilized” country
could learn something from their
marriage creed....

IN MEMORY
Of Uncle John Lee Forester, who
Died June 8th, 1941.
God sent an Holy Angel down
here on earth to roam: to search
among His children and bring
this dear one home. As the Pearly
Gates swing epen and the sweet
voice said “come” Uncle John
left this world of sorrow, to go
to the Great Beyond. Our hearts
are filled with sorrow, since
Uncle John went away. To know
him was to love him, but we’ll
meet anotuer day. There was a
a vacant spot in the garden of
light, God needed another flower
to make it beautiful and bright.
Though the hours are sad and
lonely, we must look to Jesus on¬
ly. How sweet he lived and died;
their heme is a shadow since he
has gone away, but we know
we shall meet him on that bright
and happy day. Now let us strive
the prize to gain; Come to Christ
and with him remain; There we
hall share Jesus’ love and meet
Uncle John above.—Written by
a niece, Eldie Grant.
