Kore_FiSh'l.,aw Dope. L Considerable misunderstadding exists relative to what conmstitutes a trot or a set line; also what a throw line may be. : A trot line or set line, says George +. Mannfeld, superintendent of fisheries and game for the state conservation department, is one* which is fastened to some object on the banks or in the water. Under Indiana laws a person may use one line of this kind in @& stream. Such lines are prohibited in lakes. Such a line may tiave 50 hooks on it, but none sinaller than omne-half inch from point to shank. A throw line is not a set line or trot line except if tied to some object, in which case it becomes a set iine. -~ There is no restriction on {he number of throw lines a person may use providing he is present to }.ztund them in the same manner as if ishing with rod and reel. The o®Lem in restricting a person to use of

one trot or set iine is says hannfeld, “like interest on money, they work when one sleeps.” Trolling from mo(or boats is not unlawful in Indiana. Names Leéwis Adjutant %'ard R.

= AR e s AT Ficellent Work Done ? , by the Navy Stations There is a constant increase in the’ nomber of - compass stations main-| tained by the Navy department along ‘the various coasts. The latest statis-: tics available show that 15,374 ship: captains were shown their location during heavy fogs last year, and it is fair to assume thut at least 10 per cent of them might have been grounded or wrecked had it not been for the’ assistance given by radio. : A compass station is a wireless phmt; where special apparatus is used for ‘telling the definite location of a vessel. A ship is lost in the fog; the wireless operator flashes out the signal, “Q. T. E.” The station receiving the message adjusts the radio compass to meet the direction from which the message comes. -This is the “mechanfcal ear” of the station and the operator can tell exactly the direction down to a point of the compass. Each station getting the message reports to a central station, where calculations are made as to the locuation of the ship. The distance from shore is told by the strength of the signals. Then within five minutes of the time the vessel sends out the inquiry the reply comes back and the ship’s master knows just where he is and pilots his craft accordingly.

Too Much Pessimism Takes Joy From Life People that are always looking for all the hardships and difficulties that they may meet travel a hard road if their speech is in line with their thinking. T know farmers that start in with spring work and see their crops ruined by coming disaster, until it has been stored away. A snow and cold spell coming after the oats are in is certain to kill the seed, and all must be done over., A two days’' rain is evidence that it is going to be so wet that nothing will mature. If the surface of the ground is dry we are in the start of a -dry spell that will ruin everything, Thus it goes daily to the finish., I claim that a man that really thinks that way lives a mighty poor life. We have to take about everything on faith in this old world and on the whole our faith is justified. A happy philosophy of life is a thing that can be cul.tivated and is worth while. It is an ‘added treasure to the joy of living, not for one but for many.—George Godfrey in Successful Farming.

) Dear Girls Amelia Ginghani, the noted actress, was bright and gay to the end. She said one evening at a dinner in her Riverside drive flat: - “The girl of today is dear—dear in the monetary sense. ‘A millionaire’s son was drinking tea in a girl sculptor’s studio in Greenwich Village. He said, as he poured a little more Bacardi into his cup: ~ “‘1 got my month’s allowance this morning.’ “‘Did you? What are you going to do with it?’ asked the girl sculptor. “‘Well,” said the young man, ‘1 haven’t made up my mind whether- to buy another racing car or to ask you out for the evening.’”

Interesting Old Organ Count Georg Friedrich Solms-Lau-bach, flying mate and financial backer of Otto Koennecke, devotes many an evening hour to playing the organ. Count Solms boasts of having one of the oldest and most interesting organs in Germany. It is so rare a specimen of the art of organ building in the Seventeenth century that the management of the Frankfurt exposition on “Music in the Life of the Nations” requested its loan for the duration of the fair. Count Solms readily assented. The ancient organ has only five stops and one manual.

Diligence Our word, diligence, is from the Latin, “diligencia.” It means the quality of being diligent; interested and persevering application; devoted and painstaking effort to acomplish what is undertaken; assiduous industry: careful attention. Industry has the wider sense of the two words, implying an habitual devotion to labor for some valuable end, as knowledge or property. Diligence denotes earnest application to some specific object or pursuit which more or less directly has a strong hold on one’s interest or feelings. :

Hairy Elephants

Historians tell us that, in prehistoric times, mighty mastodons and mammoths were covered from head.to tall with a very coarse hair which, in many cases, grew long. So the elephant’s forefathers had long hair but, as the world changed with regard to weather conditions, from the bitter frosty glaciers that were encountered to the modern climate of extreme heat and cold, the elephant gradually doffed his overcoat. The hair sometimes seen on the top of his head alone regnains as a reminder, ;

. Moderation

* There is a wide difference between the confidence which becomes a man -and the ‘weakness which disgraces a ‘fool. He who never trusts, is a nig.gard of his soul, who starves himself, ‘and by whom no other is enriched; but he who gives to every one his confidence, and every one his praise, squanders the fruit which should serve for the encouragement of integrity and the reward of excellence.—Sophia ‘Parkerson, in “Gems for the Tollet.”

T e 4 SR Europe’s Art Objects ‘A ' Really Second Rate? The treasury of Europe, that vast litter of the work of their grandfa. thers, which the posters preach, is as miscellaneous and unequal as a jackdaw’s swag in the hollow tree, and no one Kijous the good from the bhuud, e clares William Bolitha in Vuiity tuir,

*All artistic criticism,” declares I¢l3 iconoclast, “is as dead in Europe a 3 wus scientific in the Middle ages. Taa same- I'renchman who insisis that y.a do the dusty journey to wind-sv: it Versailles to worship the wongrons palace, where even the im :uc.rahle stolidity of an architeet wlio could make over three hundred yari: of bays in exact repetition cannor | s guise the ill-judged megalomani: of the monarch who insisted that hisx ‘ather’'s hunting box -should be 1. it into the center of the largest pils o in the world, will rush vou with a sickly smile past the magnificent uiid serene Eiffel tower. :

Pastor Celled On to : Hecve Business Mind?

“The church is caught in the oeeis dental, and more particularly Auwerican, habit of gauging success by the spectacfilur. A successfui church, iike a successful furniture shop, is the oue which has the biggest establishinent, offers the higgest assortment of wares, and aftords the biggest income. . . . A considerable part of my work as g minister is not so different from that of the executive charged with the responsibility of gefting new custoers into a furniture shop,” writes a minister in Harper’'s. *“I must ‘soll’ my institution just as surelv and skillfully as the man-hired by the iocul chamber of commerce ‘sells’ his organization. The difference is that he was hired for that express purpose, and I, tradition® says, was hired, or should have been, for sometfhing else.”

Use of Hooks

Every home owner should invest in a good assortment of hooks. To hook back doors while open is .a couvenience, as nothing has to be huuted up to hold the door from buanging siut when it is wanted open. Hook doors on the inside. Hook covers on teed boxes instead of having weights on them. Hook basement storm windows that have to be opened oecasionally. Hook gates, tool boxes and children’s ‘playhouse doors. These doors shonld ~never be hooked tightly or the chil~dren will sometime lock themselves in, If a long staple is used and a good “deal of it left on top the wood, _the ,hook will hold the door and yet pive it play so they can work it open from ‘the inside.--Successful Farming Mogajzine, : 5

Wide Awake

. It was after dusk and yet the two gyoung people sitting close together in fthe park made no attempt to depari.

. Presently a keeper came in sicht, tgoing his rounds before c¢losing the igates. ; ¢ “Sorry to disturb ye,” he said to the ridlers, “but it’s too late for ye to be isitting here.” . The youth was apologetic, . “I didn’t realize it was so late,” he 'murmured. “We are going to be married next year.” '

: “Sure, now,” returned the park ;keeper, “do you thifik I'm fool enough 'to suppose ‘you was married last ryear "—Pittsburgh Sun-Telegraph.

The Cruelest Lies

, The cruelest lies %re often told in ysilence. A man may have sat in a '(room for bhours and not opened his ymouth, and yet come out of that rcom 1a disloyal friend or a vile calumniator, iAnd how many loves have perished ‘because, from pride or spite, or diffi'dence, or that unmanly shame wkich withholds a man from daring to bejtray emotion, or love, at the eritical ‘point of the relation, he has but hung /is head and held his tongue ?—Robert /Louis Stevenson. :

Start I's Not All

- The winner of a long race is us‘nally the'one who does not start with ;& spurt. Some use up their stock of ‘enthusiasm in compiling their New ?’Year resolutions, and have nothing left for the harder task of living up to {them. The right way to live the year gls not to start off with flying colors ‘and then peter out, but to make ‘it pro‘gressive, each day betfter than its '\predecessor, each month an improve;ment on the last.—Exchange. i

Brazil Roads

: Qverabundance of patience, plenty of pluck, and a large measure of stam}ina are the three essential qualities ithat motorists in South America must 'possess, particularly when traveling jover Brazilian roads. In southern ‘Brazil roads are not only almost impassable most of the time, but-are generally hopelessly impossible from the standpoint of touring comfort. Traversing them constitutes one of the most severe tests to which metor cars and tires can be subjected. % .

Large Sums of Morey : Forwarded b_l Wire Money orders to the number of 3, 798,548 and calling for the| paymené of more than 5250.000,0¢0 were handled last year by the Western Union Telegraph company| in {it§ money transfer service, accirding to Dots and Dashes, a monthly publication of the company. The largest single sum handled was s2so’,gsoo. while the smallest was 1 cent. The $250,000 order was In connection with a motion picture contract. t

The 1-cent transaction greéw out oft a difference arising when a person in New York sent an acquaintance lla Chicago a posicard bearing/ a 1-cen stamp. The latter, in a tsarcasth mood, complained that thd communication had been received %itb postage due. Upon receipt of this letter, the man in New:York went.t¢ the telegraph office, sent the cent with a caustic message and went off less $l, the cost of trunsmission. |lnstances of 2-cent money orders are :?ai«l to be quite frequent, involving in practically every cnse valuable mafl;_held for postage due. i The three greatest sourceslot money order business are listed by| the company publication as work}men employed on jobs awuy from their home town, out-of-town visitors and tourists caught short of funds| on their travels, and traveling salesnjen. Many firms encourage their repr tatives to ask for -expense money| by wire. They regard that as more economical ‘than to have salesmen wditing for money while hotél bills accrhie.

Remodeled Barn Flade Into Camp for Girls - How an old gray barn mE the country near New York city was k’emodeled into a girls’ camp by the New York Association for Improving the Condition of the Poor is told by W. H. Matthews in Hygeia Magazine. % ‘ It was an enormous barn, with numerous stalls, three floors, a silo, harness rooms and a magniflceixt view of the Catskill mountains. Ex{ensive remodeling was necessary, but it proved less expensive than the orqginal plan to build a group of cottages, and the result was a unique camp. ; - Pifty-five girls were aceommodated for five weeks at a time. | The time was a radical departure | from the usual plan of keeping childx{en for two weeks. . Congenial counselors, opportunity for wholesome outdodr play and substantial gains in health, made the visit at “Greybarns” a strong influence for good in the lives of girls who had never had such an ¢pportunity before.

el ~ OF Dobbin | O horse, you are a wondirful thing; no buttons to push, no horns to honk; you start yourself, no clu:th to slip; no spark to miss, no gears to strip; no license-buying every pear, with plates to screw on front and rear; no gas bills climbing up each day, stealing the joy of mot’ring awa'& ; no speed cops chugging in your rear, yelling summons in your ear. Your inner tubes are all O. K. and, bless your heart, they stay that way; your spark plugs never miss and fuss, the way they do in some old bus. Your frame is good for many a mile; your body never changes style. Your wants are few and easy met; you've something on the auto yet.—American Forests and Forest Life. e A

For State Builders

They who preach patle;nce to the peoples as the sole remedy for the ills by which they are oppressed, or who, while they admit the necessity of a contest, would yet leave the initiative to be taken by their rulers, do not, to my thinking, understand the state of things coming upon us. .. . .

’ Bobwhites and Quails : Many people think that the bob‘white and the quail are distinct species jof birds. “Bobwhite” is merely the ‘common name for the native Amerl-' fean "quail, particularly the “Colinus iVirginianus” or Virginia iquail. The! iquail is called “bobwhite” from the! 'note of the male, which is jaccented ona: ithe second syllable and sounds like! .‘“bobwhite.’-’ In the Southern states! Ithe same bird is called “partridge,” a! name used in the North for the ruffed: igrouse or pheasant. }E
