in order to ride, but where they used
to say “filler up,” they are saying “3

is doing more charity than ever be-

the welfare checks have benri de

crowded as in the past, the farmers
are hopeful, but worried about the

world over to russia, and that’s bad
allso.
We Went A-Flshing Again
Nothing would do the family ex
cept we (all) go fishing. After spend
ing about $8.00 for necessary equip
ment, we lit out for a lake 45 miles
distance from home. We bought
some (bah) minnows just before we
arrived at our fishing rendezvous at
60c per dozen, equal to around $12.00
per pound.
The water was fine, no wind, no
waves, no noises, and, as a matter of
fact—we didn’t have a thing to do
but fight and slap mosquitos, gnats,
ants, flies, a few wasps, but we
fished thru it all. After about 2
hours of hoping and sweating and
getting sunburnt, this writer jerked
up a little flat fish about 4 inches
long, and one-fourth of an incfiTflUck.
We moved from one good fishing
hole to another, and we fished and
fished and fished. We used up our[
investment ($3.65) in bait, and all
of us put together didn’t catch enough 1
fish to feed a cricket a square meal.
It is a good thing we brought our
lunch along. We didn’t even unwrap
our frying pans and alcohol stove.
We naturally expected to eat mostly
fish for lunch. -
We never ^thought to fumigate our
bodies against chiggers. We didn’t
know we had any chiggers on us un
til the day after the fishing trip. If
a chigger was as big as a hornet, he
could destroy an entire army in two
days. We scratched for two or three
days, used up all of the chigger-bite
medicine we could find, and are still
sore in a good many places. When
I want lish to eat in the future, I
will eat cornbread and buttermilk.
