Crater lake offers the best angling found In any national park In the United States, stated David H. Madsen. superinten dent of fish resources of the national park service, when a visitor here this week. Mr, Madsen based his statement on a close study of fishing conditions in the different parks covering the past several years. Having been abund antly stocked with rainbow trout. Crater lake offers little difficulty to anglers in catching their limits of 12 per person per day, a fact which he said Is not duplicated elsewhere. He was particularly Impressed by the prime condition or the trout, their average size of 18 to 20 inches and the comparative ease with which they are caught. .He made a number of good catches while In the park.- A number of years ago It waa be lieved the lake possessed little or no food and as an experiment freshwater shrimp were planted to encourage food values. Later research, however, revealed that shrimp' play only a small part in fish nourishment, which Is furnished mainly by lnsecta and small freshwater life. Stocked with 100,000 to 200.000 fln gerllngs annualLly over a period of 10 years, the lake has become so abundan with fish. Mr. Madsen pointed out. thav additional heavy plantings are not necessary. As a re sult this year only 50,000 fingerllngs were planted In the lake by park rangers directed by Chief Ranger J. Carlisle Crouch. Mr. Madsen Is enthusiastic over the double thrill oi tingling in Crater lake. He Is Impressed by the Innate beauty of the precipitous crater walls rising out of blue depths, offering an almost unreal setting for an angling trip an experience found only In fishing In the water-filled crater oi an extinct volcano. Admiration of this volcanic born scenery la almost on a par with the thrill of landing a big one while fishing along the bases of crater walls, Mr. Madsen said.

To the Editor: Allow me to congratulate you on your splendid editorial in the Mall Tribune of Spt. 30, 1936, "Let's Have the Facts." I am one of that vast multitude known as the working class. For thla I make no apology. In fact I'm rather proud of it. Bjing of this class, I believe we are entitled to know Just what Mr. Lan- don, Mr. Kiux et al have to offer in case they are chosen, heaven forbid, to replace a man who really has tried to help us, Franklin D. Roosevelt. Mr. Knox tells us if we get a poor piece of land, give it up and go grab another. Oh, yeah I If you are hungry go out and run down a duck. Oh, yeah, again! If you need work go out and make a Job. etc,, etc. Now Just where would we land If we were to follow the esteemed Mr, Knox's advice? Does he advocate vio lation of laws? And is that all he and Mr. Landon have to offer? Who will Jeny that our President, in trying to correct the terrible con dition In which wo were In Just prior to his election has not made mis takes? Isn't it the most colossal mistake of all not to try? Just what does all their childish prattlo moan? Air. Hamilton tons us that ,f we elect Mr, Landon the two huge pro Jecta on the Columbia river will be completed. And that Mr. Landon can administer tho affairs of these pro Jecta better and President Roosevelt can. More prattle. Mr. Knox says worthy projects will be com Die ted unoer Mr. Landon. Just what pro jects do they consider as being worthy 7 I think we tax payers and workers are entitled to know these Important facta. We do rnow these projects, and many others, will be completed under MEDFORD'S LEADING CUT RATE DRUG STORES WE ARE SORRY!!

She came to Corvallls in "33. several years older than the freshman generally Is. being then 30 years old. She had quite a struggle for her education and felt keenly the desire to be numbered among those who measure up to the purpose for which the trust was created by Dr. Daly. Edith was the oldest child of the large family of Nick Barry. She and work were old acquaintances.
