Come on, boys! Anglers have had their dry fly fling. Fishermen, who Bwear by their plugs and lures, have been dealt a hand. Come on kiddies, we are certainly due for a fishing bout together. Get a tin can and spade, we will slip around on the north side of the barn, where there is an abundance of moisture In the ground, a most likely spot for those nice, large juicy, succulent angle worms, which are going to play an Important part in our outing. Turn a spade full of dirt, wait a minute, there is a dandy. Break the clod open carefully, a nice large wriggliDg beauty, whose eyes are affected

by the sun's bright rays, is exposed, captured and thrown Into an old tomato can, soon to be joined by many associates, until we have enough worms to furnish bait for the neighborhood. Scrape the loose dirt back into the hole, that our worm pasture may not be discovered and desecrated. Getting Prepared. A few cane poles must be rounded up, the major portion we will cut from the willows. Cotton lines, nail sinkers and jug cork lioats, complete our equipment, and we head for the Spring Slough, about one mile above Keithsburg on the banks of the Mississippi river. My reason for taking you to this fishing resort, is based upon those wonderful catches with just such an outfit, made in my boyhood days in Spring Slough. Well do I remember those wonderful strings of sun fish, captured and carried home, to be distributed among the neighbors. We must get under way or it will be too late for the morningcatch. To walk is our only alternative, we are unable to borrow a skiff and no boy owned one. We plod along through the shore brush, the saw grass Is working on our bare feet; Archie is suffering from a stubbed toe, which is continuously in his way. An old oak tree on the west bank of the -elough has fallen, thus bridging the pond. Billy Melllnger is occupying our vantage ground but we wave all fishing ethics and move in on his preempted territory. Our line of conversation and chummy methods will no doubt relieve us of his company in a few minutes, for no man can stand a bunch of kids moving in on him. Ready for Business. WTlth the entire fishing territory covered with our set poles, having first annointed the worming with a liberal splash of saliva, which in kid lore guarantees an immediate bite, we seat ourselves astride the log, with both fet immersed in the water. A cork disappears after traveling a few feet, a substantial jerk In mid air appears one of those "pumpkin seeds" to be placed upon a "stringer" made of rope that would anchor a boat. The next fish hooked, rushed the brush, which necessitated pushing our pole into the water, turning and winding up the line, until a push would disengage the hook, at the same time

running the fish from the neighborhood. Any fish whose gills would go over our stringer rope were our meat. Don't smile, you dry flyers, you have all worked out this lead, even though you are disposed to taboo our boys' fishing methods. Don't you find there is just a little tug at your heart strings as your mind reverts back to your boyhood fishing days, when it was a case of get the meat.

ANSWERS TO QUERIES.' Question How are the guages of shot guns estimated? John Morgan. Answer Before the days of micrometers or other instruments for accurate measurements came into general use, spherical balls of lead were fitted to the bore, then weighed up, the number to the pound then decided the gauge. There is now a slight variation. Question Did German carp come from Germany? Are they a good table fish? G. H. G.. Dixon, 111. Answer About 43 years since they were imported from the land of the Hun, they now claim to be naturalized or neutral. Thousands of tons of carp are shipped to the Ghetto districts in New York and other large cities. Carp are good rustlers, scavengers and breeders, but not good as a table delicacy. They are known as "Fish Hogs" due to their rooting proclivities. Question What has become of those veteran trapshots, Captain Bogardus and Dr. Carver? Arch Nilander, Denver, Colo. Answer Bogardus has crossed the great divide, has eliminated wing shooting in his present environments. Carver is on the Orpheum circuit with his diving horse; he has not been seen in the trap-shooting world for many years.

ment Field Artillery, when she recently adopted that splendid' body of young American soldiers at Camp Kearney, California. Miss Pickford is soon to be seen in this city in her newest Artcraft picture, "M'liss," based upon Bret Harte's delightful story of the days of '49 in California. She appears in this picture as a hoydenish girl, brave, resourceful, kind and tender-hearted. Her characterization in this picture will add to her gallery of portraits a distinguished figure that will serve to largely increase her fame and popularity. She is excellently supported in this picture, chief among the players being Theodore Roberts, Thomas Meigban, Tully Marshall and Charles Ogle. "Mliss" is billed to he shown at the Washington theater today and tomorrow. MURRETTE The guests of the fashionable Beverly Hills Hotel, in California, were interested spectators at the filming

Julian Eltinge, who is transferring his feminine impersonations from the stage to the screen via Paramount pictures, made a great success in his appearance at a benefit performance given for the family or the late Maitland Davies, dramatic critic of the Los Angeles Tribune and Express. Mary Pickford and Cecil B. DeMille were box holders at the affair. Mr. Eltinge's next Paramount picture. "The Clever Mrs. Carfax," will be the attraction at the Murray theater today and tomorrow.
