Royal Exiles of Greece Are Buried at Home SALMON MEN COMPLAIN Astoria—The finding of a 12-inch pilchard In the stomach of an ocean- caught troll salmon at a local can nery has revived the opposition of fishermen to the pilchard- reduction industry. Ocean trollers have long objected to the granting of licenses to shore pilchard plants because they considered the taking of that fish as robbing the feeding ground of sal mon. Pacific Coast Fishermen’s union, comprised of all trollers in Oregon and many in Washington, besides gillnetters In coastal streams and in Canada, has fought the extension of the pilchard fishery in the northwest. Last season, however, only a small amount of pilchards was caught off the Oregon coast.

It's Harder to Lose Pounds Than It Is to Gain More of Them ----------- ----------------------------------- - Overweight Generally Has But however, don’t advertise publicly your diet program. One Cause and That Is Overeating. “The slim, the irritable, the hungry woman takes on the pro portion of one of our minor men aces,” says Fannie Hurst in her amusing little book, “No Food With My Meals.” Miss Hurst is writing frankly from her owr ex perience in attempting successful ly to lose pounds. She admits herself that although she under took her reduction program under the direction of the doctor, she was not content with the com paratively slow results and cut still further the low calorie diet which the physician gave her. It is one of the mysteries of life that it is much harder to lose added pounds than it is to gain them. The bathroom scales, which are now so general a part of equipment, enable us to keep a check on weight. It is not so easy for those extra pounds which creep upon us unaware as it was once upon a time. A few days of dieting in time will save the slender figure. Remember, how ever, that, in general, the addi tion of a few extra pounds with the years is an asset. They are usually needed to balance those lines which the years write. Unless there is some glandular deficiency, overweight has but one cause, namely, overeating. The avoidance of more calories than are needed for use by the body for its own processes and for the activity of our lives may usually be a simple matter if there are no between meal sweets and no over-indulgence in bread, butter, other fats and rich desserts with meals. Not complete avoidance! It is only the second helpings that are usually responsible for undue weight gain. Looking out for that pound in time will actually save nine.

Bunyan Created Lakes Elk and Torch lakes, the beau tiful finger lakes that stretch par allel for miles along the shore of Lake Michigan near Elk Rapids, date back to the days of Paul Bunyan, according to the old lum berjacks. Lake Michigan, they say, was scooped out by the mighty Paul, to be used as a log pond. Instead of skidding the logs into a stream and floating them down to his pond Paul would hitch onto a section of land and drag it over to the lake, log off the timber, and then haul the section back. One day Paul hooked onto a particularly heavy timbered sec tion near the Boardman and started Babe, the blue ox, out to haul it over to the lake. There had been a heavy rain, the ground was greasy, and Babe’s feet slipped. Torch and Elk lakes remain, an eternal testimonial to the blue ox and the time his feet slipped.— Detroit Free Press.
