PRIVATE BREEDING POND AFFECTED BY OPENING OF SLUICE

Editor The Palladium: Dear Sir: A story in your last night's paper states that through the carelessness of some of the members in opening Ihe sluice box of our breeding pond south of the city, the Wayne County Fish and Game Protective Association has lost all but forty of its many thousand bass. The article also states that these bass were secured for breeding purposes by seining the streams of the county under a permit issued under the authority of the state fish and game commissioner. The facts are these: There is a pond near the pond of the association which has been leased and operated for two or three years by some individual fishermen of this city, as a breeding pond. This pond is not connected with the ownership, control, operation or management of its affairs. I am informed that these men have raised many small bass which have been planted in the streams of the county, doing work along the same lines as our organization has done. When Oie pond was drained a few days ago some of the bass were left stranded and died, though many of them were saved. In order that the members of our association interested in the work we are doing may not be misinformed, I respectfully ask that you give this letter publicity in your paper today. Our local hatchery is one of the most efficient, one of the best located and best equipped in the state outside of the state hatcheries and those of the Marion County Fish and Game Protective Association. We have a great many parent bass in our pond now, all in healthy condition. They are cleaning more than a dozen nests already preparatory to spawning. We feel sure that this season we will raise many thousands of small mouth black bass, which will be liberated this all into :he fishing streams of Wayne County. Our parent bass were all caught on hook and line by members of the organization and donated to the pond. Very very truly, JOHN F. HOLADAY, Secretary Wayne County Fish and Game Protective Association. FATHER WRITES POEM ABOUT TRACK MEET Charles Thomas, 407 North Twentyfirst street, father of Henry Thomas, a pupil in the Garfield school has submitted to the principal, Mr. Heironimous, the poem given below in connection with the field meet which takes place tomorrow. The poem has aroused considerable interest among the boys of the school who will participate in the contest. Don't forget tomorrow is the big field meet, The Purple and the White are going to compete. When it comes to the hurdles just watch the White You may taink I'm fooling but we'll show you all right. The hundred yard dash, we can win in a walk; I may be mistaken but that is the talk. Just take Glen Carver; he can run like a deer. The Purples haven't a boy who could beat him in a year; The high jump, oh my; it will be a cinch Vv'e got a kind who can do six feet in a pinch. Don't forget Dick Wessel, he can jump a bit, The way he'll win the high and vault will surely make a hit. All the other events will be easy as pie, We won't let the Purples have even a tie. Charley, Kenneth and Homer are three more in the game; Richard, Donald and Jack and none of them are lame. I could name at least a dozen all trained and eager to start, I could tell you all their names but I really haven't the heart. The Whites will win the pennant, we have known It all along, Don't be down-hearted Purples, just try again, well, so-long. City Statistics Marriage Licenses.

It does your heart good to see how easily and quickly any corn comes out when you put "GETS-IT" on! And then when you've gone along for years "Look. GETS-IT Makes Corns Fall Right Off!" trying everything, when you've sat up nights wrapping up your toes in bandages, smearing on salves that rub off or swell up the corn, pasting on cotton plasters that make corns pop-eyed, slaughtering your toes with razors, jabbing them with knives and pruning to the quick with scissors and then you put on 2 drops of "GETS-IT" and see your corn fall right off why, it just looks like a miracle. Just try it. "GETS-IT" never fails. No pain, no trouble. Use it for any corn, callus, wart or bunion. "GETS-IT" is sold by druggists everywhere, 25c a bottle, or sent direct by E.

the third time the congregation had been called upon to choose a new pastor. "Dr. Gilchrist," said Mr. Myrick, "came to us direct from the seminary and during his pastorate here rose in the ranks of the United Presbyterian ministers until he was elected by the general assembly to one of the most responsible positions in the church of North Amreica, which position he filled with distinct success until his death. Next came Dr. Hervey, who bad had several years experience, and who during his pastorate here was un

usually successful; leaving and going into the Mission church work, was called to Providence, R. I., where he was very successful. Afterwards he went west, in the Presbyterian de nomination, where he was making a wonderful success until his death a few months since. Next came Dr. Lyons, and we all know of the work of this great man.
