He also claims that fishing for the lowly type is rare sport. All one needs Is a pole and line, a few hooks and sinkers, a can of worms and an Inex haustible stock of patience, he says, and adds that roily water Is better than clear for this particular sport. We knew that catfish from the Mis sissippi and Missouri rivers were good to eat. but didn't know that anyone ate the local variety. Last year we discovered that the humble mudhen. or coot as It Is properly termed. 1 one of the finest game birds extant i far aa devouring purposes are con cerned. The next thing we'll discover la that garden worms make fine hors d'oeuvres.

"Baseball," said one of the business men, "la not .necessarily dead here. It's under the effects of the ether that has controlled It for so many years, but we expect to clean up the situation and have a team of good, clean boys In a short time. Baseball will keep them off the streets and out of the pool halls.
