"Isaac Walton," Sam Koplin, is vis
iting his father and trying his hand at
trout fishing. We always thought
Sam could catch any fiish in the water
that had mouth enough to take a bait,
but it seems his sou, who has one hand
laid up with a very sore finger, is able
to give his father pointers with the
other hand in the art of enticing the
finny tribe from their hiding places.
Mr. Koplin, junior, is a member of a
troupe of acrobats who are artists in
their line and we hope they may find it
to their interest to play Hood River.
Our city is not so large as some, but our
people never fail to fill our opera house
tor a first class troupe like Mr. Koplin's.
