Is it stunt ed or is it making good growth? About how much did it grow last year, or the year before? What was its length at the end of the second year of life? These and many other questions are of prime importance and interest to the fishery biologist. He needs to know the answers to many of these questions to form an intelligent management plan for any given body of water. If, for in stance, it is found that the fish in a certain lake are stunted, that is that they are not growing as well as would normally be expected, then either there are too many fish in the lake for the available food or the lake is not producing as much food as it should. In either case, the biologist can apply remedial meas ures based on his findings. Or per haps it is found that the fish in the lake or stream are making such excellent growth that the creel limits can be raised. Again, the adequacy of natural reproduction of fish in a lake or stream can be de termined by the number of fish of various year-classes, if the ages of the fish can be determined. There are many ways that information of this kind is of value to the biologist. Now a fish can't speak (at least none have ever been reported to do so) and tell the biologist about these things. Fortunately, however, its scales do tell the biologist a fair ly detailed story about how tough life has been on the poor fish and how many years it has been alive. The story the scales can tell, an swers many of the questions the biologist has in mind when he un dertakes the formation of a man agement plan for better fishing in lakes and streams. Anyone who has caught a fish which has scales has perhaps no ticed that each scale is covered with a series of roughly concentric lines or ridges. These are known as cir- culi. The distribution of these lines is not perfectly regular but shows breaks at various int?rvals. Those breaks are the year marks or an nuli by means of which the age of the fish is determined. AAA Target Scopes A rifle target scope must be care fully adjusted both for the individ ual shooter’s eye and for the range. The effectiveness of a scope is greatly reduced when the adjust ments are even slightly in error. The rifleman should spend plenty time adjusting his scope for the range over which he is to shoot, for it will pay him well on the score board. Always check your scope careful ly before a match. A solid jar or knock could loosen the mounts or possibly cause some parallax. Five minutes before firing time is much too late for such a check—do your checking the day before the match. Before investing in a scope, it is well to try out some of those owned by friends in order that you may get a better idea of the type and model which best suits you. After you get a scope, take good care of it. Remember, it is a very easy matter to bend the tube or break a glass. Always handle it with care. Another important thing to keep always in mind is this standard saying among scope-mr.kers and scope users: ‘‘There are only two persons who take scopes apart, the man who knows how and the fool." AAA HIGHWAY SAFETY Nebraska Rural Safety Project Wins Traffic Engineering Award mm puzzle LAST WEEKS ANSWER How one state reduced automo bile accidents 91 per cent in one year at a dangerous rural highway intersection at trivial cost, simply by removing an unwarranted traf fic signal and installing stop signs and warnings, has been voted the best example of traffic engineering results submitted to the Associa tion of Casualty and Surety com panies in its 1950 competition for traffic officials. First prize of $100 was awarded to J. Edward Johnston, of Lin coln, Neb., state traffic engineer. Nebraska department of roads and irrigation, for his entry in the second annual ‘‘Getting Results Through Traffic Engineering" con test sponsored by the association’s accident prevention department. It Try 'Em All! There is hardly a more pathetic sight to the veteran angler than the "one-lure" man—the fisherman who at some time or another has caught a big fish on a certain plug and, thereafter, will use no other. The smart angler, when he finds the fish are not hitting as they should, or as he desires, will start digging into the tackle box until he has “thrown everything in the book" at the unresponsive objects of his pursuit. There are instances too numerous to mention where a lure that was deadly one day or even one hour before suddenly fails even to attract the slightest touch from a fish. When that happens, common-sense or angling intuition ought to direct the angler to try something else. One of the most expert anglers in the United States carries a tackle box with 10 trays of lures in it— not to show off, but just to be ready in case the fish on any given oc casion are exhibiting a terribly finicky appetite. Thus this angler assures himself he will not be caught without any special lure that the finny denizens may want. AAA Leaders For Pickerel Whenever fishing for pickerel, the wise angler will see to it that he has on a fairly heavy leader. This is necessary because the sharp teeth of the pickerel can fray a light ‘line or. a fine leader. And even if one doesn’t lose the fish, it is high ly likely the plug will be lost on the next cast after a pickerel has been working on the line. A wire leader is the best bet, with a new-type nylon leader with a fine steel cable through middle the next best. i^SCREI By INEZ GERHARD F RANK SINATRA, recently re turned from Florida with a fine tan and great enthusiasm for per forming in a hotel, as he did there, has done well in all fields of enter tainment but one; so far he has never appeared on the legitimate stage in New York.

He directed work from the set of RKO’s “Pest of the Bad Men" by phone. showed how accidents have been nearly eliminated at the junction of highways U.S. 30 and Nebraska 15, near Schuyler, where 32 acci dents had injured 13 persons in eight and a half years. Only one very minor accident occurred dur ing the first year after the change was made, compared with 11 during the preceding 12 months. The important contributions to greater highway safety being made by the nation’s traffic engineers and officials are indicated by seven case histories of results, including Mr. Johnston’s, published last year in the accident prevention depart ment’s bulletin, "Getting Results Through Traffic Engineering." By actual count, according to Thomas N. Boate, the associa tion’s director of public safety, the 1950 examples of engineer- lug results prevented 70 acci dents, nine deaths and 61 inju ries in comparable periods after safety projects were completed in five cities and on two rural highways In seven states— Tennessee, Louisiana, North Carolina, Virginia, Nebraska, California and Michigan. Nine deaths and 65 injuries had occurred in 90 accidents at loca tions studied by traffic officials before the changes wfit-e made in the seven projects outlined in last year’s bulletins. There were no deaths, injuries were reduced to four, and only 20 accidents occurred after the changes were made, Mr. Boate said. IN THE ASSOCIATION’S annual competition, major factors consid ered by the judging include effec tiveness of a project in reducing accidents and traffic delay or con gestion, and relationship of the value of benefits to cost of the improvement made. The example submitted by Mr. Johnston showed that the prize-winning Nebraska rural crossroads project enabled the authorities to increase the speed limit from 25 to 35 miles an hour, thus expediting traffic at the same time accidents were reduced 91 per cent. Eight times as many acci dents had occurred at the Schuyler, Neb., intersection as were experienced at a similar location on U. S. 30 where only stop signs were used to control traffic, a study revealed. Analy sis showed that fixed-time sig nals were not justified, so the lights were removed and 48-Inch reflee to rised stop signs and • stop ahead warnings were erect ed to control traffic on Nebras ka 15. Other successful traffic engineer- ing projects published in 1950 by the Association, ranging in cost from $5.50 to $30,080, included: es tablishment of a four-way stop in Nashville, Tenn.; channelizing and installing signals at Y-intersections in Los Angeles, and Charlotte, N. C.; bus rerouting and signal retiming in midtown Norfolk, Va.; instituting mid-block transit loading zones in the central business district of Shreveport, La., and re-signing a rural junction near Grand Rapids, Mich. The 1951 "Getting Results Through Traffic Engineering" competition, which again offers a $100 awarc( for the best example submitted, is open to all engineers, police and traffic officials.

The God of the Bible is not a "great first cause" or a "principle" of any sort. First, last and always He is the God of the Cov enant. Over and over again He is called the "God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob." The stories of these men are not mere .campfire tales of legendary ancestors. They are the story of how these men were related to God in a solemn covenant; they were "God’s people" in a special way. In the New Testament we find the strange yet stirring declaration that God was "not ashamed to ho their God." • • • Graceful Frock Comes In Great Size Range V -C Dr. Fei LOVER’S QUARREL By Laura M. Welch I MUST HAVE been about ten or eleven,/a rather intense little girl with a twenty year old sister whom I adored. She was in love with a young druggist, a handsome young man and she always kept a large photo graph of him in the center of our upright p i a r o, usually with a small fluted bowl of pansies or violets in front of it Bess had been going with an other young man in town and Clyde had had another girl; then suddenly they wily made dates with each other. One night about one o’clock my sister came upstairs to the room we shared and came to bed and cried nearly all night. Several times I asked her what was the matter and she’d say, “Nothing, honey, go back to sleep." I knew she and Clyde had been to a dance and I was sure they had quarreled. The next morning she still wouldn’t tell me why she had cried so much. Later on in the day I went into the parlor to practice my scales and there was his photograph right there in frxit of me. I couldn’t bear to look at it. He had made my sister cry. He had hurt her dread fully and I hated him. I hated him so much I couldn’t bear to see his picture. I took the picture and slid it along the baseboard behind the piano. I gave it a hard shape and was sure it would never be found again. Two or three days went by. My GRASSROOTS Taxpayers Bear Expense of RFC Peals and Frauds By Wright A. Patterson G eneral vaughn’s bestowal of refrigerators on favorites was but a piker operation com pared with the natural mink coats presented to White House stenog raphers for influence in securing loans for corporations from the Reconstruction Finance Corpora tion. The mink coats have figured prominently in the senate in vestigation of the R.F.C. scan dal that has kept Washington and the entire nation aghast for several weeks. But like other scandals of the past that newspaper and radio re porters have dug out of un usual graft conditions, nothing will come of it all. The White House stenographer has her fur coat and will keep it. The Democratic national commit tee has collected considerable sums with which to finance the next na tional political campaign, and it will be used for that purpose. Numerous "fb&rs" have been paid extrav gant sums for their services with directors of the R.F.C. In directly the American taxpayers bore the expense through the R.F.C. loans, which are financed by the federal government. It is reported In Washington that grand jury Indictments against R.F.C. direetors and the "fixers" will be sought. Such indictments may be voted, but, in all probability, convic tions will not be obtained by the Department of Justice. Re gardless of the sensational evi dence produced by the senate committee, nothing will hap pen. The committee findings will be a political "white wash.” The senate will refuse to confirm the directors for a xjew term, and they will pass out of official life and quite possibly accept lucrative jobs with some of the numerous cor porations to whom they have made extensive I sans of gov ernment money. Such a procedure would be but a repetition of other similar in stances of the past. During the last war, for example, reporters dug out the evidence of large scale graft on the part of contractors on the international highway through Mexico and Central America. They provided the names, places, amounts and methods. The state ments they printed could well have been the basis for libel suits if the statements were untrue, but no such suits were instituted. A congres sional committee undertook an in vestigation. For a few days there was much fuss about it &1L Then the subject disappeared from the newspapers, and the investigation stopped. Nothing happened. The grafting contractors kept their ill- gotten gains, the tax payers paid the bills, the investigation was called off. It was interfering with the game of politics and politicians. Another instance ir which report ers dug up the evidence was the installation of radar protection for Hawaii The installation was to be made under the direction of a Ger man who was an engineer officer in the American army. For various reasons of the German officer, the installation was delayed, and that delay resulted in the Pearl Harbor disaster. v After the reporters had investi gated and printed their statements accusing the German officer with deliberately delaying the installa tion, a congressional committee undertook an investigation. Again there were grounds for libel suits, but the suits were never filed. The congressional investiga tion lasted for a few days, and was then dropped. The German en gineer officer was assigned to an other job, in connection with the construction of the Alcan highway. Later, he was promoted and sent to Germany with the army of occu pation. Such were two examples in which there . was convincing evidence. There was a similar situation in connection with the construction of the Alcan highway, and the oil development project that went with It. In that case a four-star general was involved. It, too, was white washed by a congressional investi gation. The President has sent to the senate for confirmation the five ‘directors of the R.F.C. There is hardly a chance of senate confirma tion, but they will be allowed to get out to be rewarded with lucra tive jobs from some of the corpora tions to which they have made loans of the peoples’ money. Such is partisan uolitics. "It was a hateful sort of thing for him to do," Bess said. "1 know he’s Just laughing to him self, thinking bow he put it ever on me." sister was still sad. I wondered if she and Clyde would ever make up their quarrel. . Seme of her friends got to gether and decided te 'o some thing to help them make up. They came down to the house and brought Clyde with them, stayed a abort time sad went off leaving Clyde and Bess to gether. But it didn’t do any good. Clyde left early, too, and my sister was just as sad as ever. One day 1 heard her talking to one of her girl friends. "It was a hateful sort of thing for him to do. He could have asked me, you know. Hxat would have been the honora ble thing to do, even if he had wanted to give it to another girL" She swallowed a sob and went on, "I know he’s just laughing to him self, thinking how he put it over on me." I didn’t have the slightest idea what she was talking about. T HE WHOLE TOWN was inter ested in the quarrel. They’d been expecting a big church wed ding with all the fixings and were disappointed. As for myself, 1‘ just got madder and madder. One morning I was sent uptown for the mail and met Clyde on the street. I started to go by him with out speaking, which 1 knew was very rude, but I didn’t care if it was. He reached out and caught my hand. "Look, honey, don’t be mad at me," he said. "Don’t you know this thing is hurting me too?" 1 said angrily, "Yon made her cry.” He turned a little pale and > looked very seri us. "Did she really cry, Becky?" "Yes, she does . , . did, 1 mean. That’s why 1 took your picture and hid it behind our old piano.' "You took the photograph?" I nodded. "It’s behind the-piano." "And all this time I thought she took it away because she was go ing to put another one there.’’ Quite suddenly I began to under stand. "And she thought you took it to give to another girl." He took my hand again. ."Look, I’m going home with you, Becky. Wfll you tell Bess what you’ve just told me?" I nodded. And we went home to gether and I told her. There was a wedding after alL The Living God r E FULL meaning of Bible has to tell us about God can be discovered best by coming toward an understanding of what the covenant idea means. What is meant by the Covenant God, one who makes covenants with men? First ef sD, it means that Ged to living. He is net n mere observer ef events with which He has nothing te do. If we could put it into modern Amer ican language, God does net sit hi the bleachers; He plays the game. He does not, as it were, read the newspapers to see how tho war against evil goes eu; He is out oa the field directing the battles. God is not something to be talked about, a problem, an X; He is net a creation of men’s minds, God is not a name for an idea. He is more /alive than any one who thinks about Him, He is more real than any who ever doubted Him. • • • Only Persons Make Covenants r E GREAT difference between things and people is that peo ple have wills of their own. And God is a person. You will not find in the Bible any statement directly saying that God is personal, or a person; but every time a Covenant between God and man is men tioned, the idea of personality is there. Ne one who ever knew Ged would think ef calling Him "It" even with capital letters. If we say "He" about God it is not be cause we think He Is masculine; it would be quite as true to eaB Him Mother-God as Father-God. As Dr~ Reynolds, Presbyterian missionary to Korea, has pointed out, all the best qualities we asso ciate with motherhood are in the Bible attributed to God. So if we call God "He" what we are em phasizing is that He is personal, that He has intelligence and will of His own, no vague It or That or "AIL" * Then the Covenant God is one who takes the initiative. The Bitile tells of a God who does not wait ! on a snow clad peak of eternity till lost mankind somehow breaks a trail up the vast ranges to His lofty throne. It tells of a God who walks in the valley of the shadows, seek ing men. All religions have gods, some of them very "high and lifted , up"; but only the Bible reveals the true God, whose mercy does not ; have to be bought or coaxed, but a God who approaches man in mercy, a God who is all-giving Love. • • • God Makes His Own Terms A T THE same time, God re mains God. He is not on a level with man. He takes the initiative, but also He makes His own terms. We cannot dictate to Him. We can not draw up our own contracts, so to speak. God made promises to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and we are "heirs of the promises." But these promises are not - promiscuous. To put it quite simply: God is not on frieugjy terms with every one. He is a friend te all who will be His friends. But with these who torn their backs, who go their own ways, who care little or nothing for His great purposes, who do not seek His win, Ged makes ne oovsnsnts. God’s wtt is tho welfare of man kind. Gad’s will is tho destruction of evfl. the creation and triumph of good. God is light and in Him is no darkness at all. If we love dark ness rather than light, we have no right to be called His people. We cannot call ourselves His people because we are Americans, or be cause we belong to some church; we can call ourselves His people only if our hearts are in tune with His. of I Graceful Frock ■ ■PWO' piece flattery for * A graceful frock that wear everywhere with j Yoke and sleeves are contrast, scallops finish closing. • • o Pattern Ne. 1397 Is ret No. ••••••«•••••• mm , - 55- Split pea soup, whether made or canned, can be by the addition of two bacon, friend and cruml few ripe olives, pitted and pieces.
