—Let's Go Fishing— ANGLERS TRY RUT WEATHER SPOILS SPORT Cold Weather Keeps Fish in Hiding: Warm Rain Awaited. BY GEORGE DENNY (Pinrh Hittini for Lrftv Lee) This In and out weather is getting th*> goat, of the angling fraternity. If the sun ventures out for a few hours a gob of snow comes sliding down a nor'wester and smacks It bark again. A number of the boys have been trying, but reports are discouraging on the whole. It will take several warm days in a row to stir up any really finny activity. An old timer tells us that he never has any luck until a spring freshet or two has swept the cold water out of the pools and replaced it with the warmer rain water. Rain is predicted for today and while it may spoil the stream fishing over the week-end, we might garner some comfort from the fact that it will help later. Your angling education is not complete until you have studied James Alexander Henshall's Book of the Black Bass.” This earnest old sportsman spent the greater part of a long and useful life in observing and catching Micropterus. and his book is in many ways still the last word. Though he was a physician and a good one. I can't help j thinking that h° cur r d more per- ! sons through his lov -of fishing than j with his pills. Following are some bits of philos- j phy and advice from Dr. Henshall that are as good today as they were fifty years ago: "Fishing for count, and the slaughter of the innocents, now meet .ith the opprobium of all true dis- i ciples of the craft, and have become j abhorrent and despicable practices. "No food, however tempting, can entice the bass as long as there is the appearance of danger. “Predacious fishes feed almost entirely at night, oni..' the hungry ones, perhaps, doing so during the day. "Early in the season bass will be found on streams in shallow water, just below tiie rapids, or "riffles." where the water is warmest, feeding on helgramit'vs. minnows, etc. "The pleasantest days for the anglers comfort are usually the most successful days for angling. “It matters little, for bait fishing, whether the wind is in the east, j west, north or south, so long as it is a pleasant wind and not too raw j and chilly. But any wind is better than no wind "Fish usually bite better before a shower. "I can not impress too strongly upon the reader the importance of keeping out of sight of the fish, for therein lies the greatest secret of success in angling.” ENGINEERING CODE TO BE DRAFTED FOR CITY Society to Make Attempt for Local ; Application. Attempt will be made by the Indianapolis Engineering Society to j compile a code of fair competition 1 for professional engineers, to be ap- ! plied locally, subject to NR A ap- ! proval, it was decided at a society luncheon yesterday.

“None is so blind as he who won V see ” Blind optimism may lead to actual blindness, or nearly so. It doesn't pay to think your eye trouble will “wear off" in time. Perhaps in one case in a thousand impaired vision will correct itself. Are you so optimistic as to think you are that one? Glasses are the only sure cure for eye trouble.
