Listen to a fisherman's story
As told when he came back from
a trip
Loaded with Rainbows and Glory
And a basket full of fish on his
. hip:
A likeable chap that fisherman
is
And with reel and tackle and
worm
He never did miss, but caught
his fish
As fast as the poor suckers were
born.
Night ‘fore last, so he started
his tale,
^ A happy smile in his eyes as
he spoke
“I went for my goal. I and Frank
Towle
In a boat that needs no sail
“Over Kenai Lake, more than 30
miles wide,
Our shadow we soon left behind,
It took oil for feed, but that
baby had speed.
O' my Gosh—how I enjoyed the
ride!
‘'"Stayed at Cooper's Landing that
night, amidst flowers and
beauty
Where nature and skill and art
istic designs.
Make you every day out of seven
think about heaven,
With little Patsy and Mrs. Towle
as angels of duty.
“Next morning at four I had
hctcakes and jam
Ham and eggs, coffee and toast.
Then little smoking was done in ;
the morning sun i
And again off for Russian River '
I am.
“Then with the pole in my hand c
and some bait I did go
Followed by Frank carrying bas- ^
k.et and axe.
I was of confidence full, felt I
strong as a bull
When about 100 feet up I made
my first throw.
“And believe me or not, before
the bait touched water j |
“A big one” made a jump and
took hook, worm and lead.
Then down the stream he raced
and I, quite amazed,
Think I heard in the distance
his departing laughter.
“One mile a minute we went
down the river
G iding smooth through the ra
pids and round Schooners Bend,

| Swung to the left in an eddy
| took the bank and made ready
■At the mouth of the Russian we
! tied up our fliver.
I “To tease the ‘no seeum’ and
! their friends the mosquitos
We pe r f u me d our hands, neck
and our faces
I know it was for the best,
but the bugs did protest;
They made an awful racket and
quit us
“If that foolish big fish, swim
ming away so amused,
Did know how he had hurt my
fisherman’s pride,
He would have darn good reason
to leave the stream for a sea
son
Because I felt abused.
“With hook and spoon from then
on my fishing was done
| Fat worms I didn’t serve any
more.
Everything went fine, I had a
heck of time
And caught them to right and
left by the score.
“Had about a ton when Frank
hollered, ‘Come
Have a cup of coffee and some
thing to eat.
I am completely tired out, check
up on your trout,
If you are hungry ,Jack, take
a seat.’ z
“And the way I ate and drank
was a credit to Frank
But when they are biting I have
n’t time to waste.
So half a pie I did swipe, and
my pole and my pipe
And made again for the river

“Above a big rock in the stream,
past which water like cream
In its mad rush toward the sea
it flows
I reached the end of my goal,
a deep fishing hole
Where all around shady trees
stay close
“Leaning over the bank from its
water I drank
When from the opposite shore
came a roar
And on the surface I saw, a bird
or fish I didn’t know,
Fifteen feet long or more.
i “And I nearly did choke when
( to me “it” spoke
1 With the voice of a chamber
I maid:
jT am the queen of this stream: j
I am the fisherman’s dream.

Simon Guggenheim, president of

Europe, said he believed the
'price of copper would be main
j tained at current levels and the

Sales and earnings of this com
pany were showing a satisfac
tory increase over the 1928 per
iod, he added.
The copper performance has J
been associated with a whole ■

of which is exemplified by the
