JAPAN'S RECORD FISH CATCH Haul for 1921 Amounted to 1,755,955 -Long Tens—Used for Table and “I Fertilizer. ‘. ‘The waters surrounding Japan and to the north constitute one of the three greatest fishing areas of the Northern hemisphere, and, consequently, the people have a plentiful supply of fish, which almost entirely takes the place of meat. Without this abundance of fish so close at hand, it is douiniul of the Japanese empire would have attained the high state of development that it has reached today, since its limited area does not permit the ralsIng of meat animals sufficient to feed even a fraction of the great population, says a report to the Department of Commerce, - :

. Japan’s - fish catch during 1921 amounted to- 1,755,965 long tons, 1,124,977 tons of which were for table, while the remainder was taken for the oil content and for fertilizer. -

During the last few years meat has becorae quite popular among the wealthier Japanese, many of whom eat two or three “European” meals a week, but the cost of imported meat places it in the luxury class and restricts its use to a comparatively small number. The Increased earning power of the people, however, is making it possible for them to indulge in wore and more luxuries and, in time, meat may be reganded as a necessary part of the diet.

WANTED -TO BE ACCURATE

Tennyson Corrects Error- He Made While on First Train From Liverpool to Manchester. -

It was Jack Kemble who in 1833 warned Alfred Tennyson that “he had a touch of mathematics in him”; and readers of the Eversley edition of his works realize from the copious notes what was the laureate’s obsession for accuracy. : L : f Harold Nicholson In his brilliant book on “Tennyson,” records one deliclous instance of Mr. Tennyson’s hablt. “In the first ‘Locksley Hall”” he writes, “he had Indulged in the following slmile: Let the great world spin forever down The ringing grooves of change. Sl “Most people would have left it at that. Not so Tennyson, The inapiration of the verse had been drawn froem a railway engine and had been rendered inaccurately ; for it appears that railway engines do not, as he had at first supposed, run in grooves. So he confesses his mistake in a note: “‘When 1 went by the first train from Liverpool to Manchester (1830) I thought that the wheels ran in a groove. It was -a black night and there was such a-vest crowd rourd the train at the station that we could not see the wheels. Then I made this line.’ "—Detroit News.’

Force of Habit.

An Angeleno recently returned from Burope laughingly tells of meeting an old friend of his in Venice, Italy, who has a studio in California at Carmel-by-the-Sea. He asked the artist which of the two places he liked the best. “Well,” replied the artist, “I like them both, but Venice is awfully tough on my cat.” '

“I don’t get you,” said the Angecleno, “what difference does it make to the cat whether it’'s in Carmel or Venice?”’

“Well, it’s this way,” explained the artist. “I've got the habit of tossing the. cat out the window into the back yard every night, and of course here In Venice there isn’t any back yard.”

How's This?

Near San Diego are some quaint towns and one of them has a unique garage. At one time it was a church, but now a double door has been cut through the side and the vestibule at the front.is used for an office. But the blend of old and new affords a laugh to every traveler who stops there for over the door, weatherbeaten but still readable, is a Scripture quotatlon that goes: : .

“Behold, I have set before you.an open door.” = ; . And on the panel below, the garageman has inscribed in red paint “Positively no admittance.” :

Not Far Off.

Hoffy was discoursing about idioms of speech and the oddities that crop up in various languages. “For Instance,”” he said, “on the continent , when they want to compliment a man they call him a large vegetable.”

“What of that?”’ : “Seems a queer figure of speech. We have nothing like it.” - “Om the contrary, we have something very much like it. Don’t we often call a man a ‘small potato? ”

' Impatient. - : The clergyman was waxing eloquent on the subject of the “Future State of the Church.” As his voice rose in power and volume he made the rafters ring with the question: “I ask you, what shall be the future glory of the church?” A brief pause for breath, and he continued: “I repeat, what shall be the future glory of the church?’ ' : “You tell him, daddy, and let’s go,” exclaimed an entreating voice,
