Calkin built the motor, which he CNtlmates develops about onc-sl-trenth horsepower, to run a small toy boat about 30 Inches long. It operates on the same principle as an outbroad motor, and travels about four miles an hour. Tho three-Inch flywheel makes about 1.000 revolutions a minute.

On dark days, other factors being equal, he may select a bright fly to tempt trout that show no Interest In drab "food." The president never .uses a big casting rod, preferring the sporting chance whtch a light fly rod gives the fish. The rod ordinarily em ployed by him both In trout and bass fishing is seven and one-half feet long, and very light. He also uses a 0-foot casting rod, a few ounces heavier. Mr, Hoover has no difficulty In reaching the water spots sought, ' aa he is adept at casting a long line. In maneuvering for trout he always fishes upstream if the weather is not too windy. What the well-dressed fisherman should wear seems of little Interest to tho president. He Is all set so far as sartorial equipment Is concerned when he steps' into a pair of rubber hip -boots. Any old hat will do if It fits, and he makes no fuss over the rest of his wardrobe.
