Those who are personally ac- quainted with Mr. White know him to be an all-around good sport. In days of yore he was interested in every kind of sport, lacrosse, hockey, and if we remember correctly 'was one of Perth's strongest tug-of-war men -in the county. Latterly, though, Jack has become an expert angler. This season was the most successful of any. Never before was t'3e annual fish dinner at the Queen's Hotel so highly spoken of, and no doubt deservedly so. The Mirror Scribe would have been treated to a seven-pound pickerel were it not for one thing. Jack's kind heartedness was the only reason. By the way, this was the first fish that was caught in the net the party had thrown out. "Just because it was our first catch," said Mr. White, 'twe kept it and gave it a real nice breakfast for a couple of mornings, and it got so tame that it would eat out of our hands." Every member, of the party, on a vote, decided to let the catch out again in the deep waters and Jack was really glad to see the poor fish get away, for he is the kind of a fel- low who takes pity on any poor fish. But believe it or not, to the party's great surprise next morning this self- same fish came back for its breakfast. This time a bright idea struck the anglers after giving the big fish its rations. It was gently taken from the net and a string, with two baited hooks on either end, was tied around the pickerel. Imagine the thrill those fishermen got when two hours after leaving it returned laden .with two real live bass which the said pickerel had, one would think, knowingly drag- ged into the net. For a beter fish story than this the teller of the same should get a worth-while prize. How about your story Jukes? THE MISUNDERSTANDING "Apenes, said the mistress, "did you put the clothes in soak?" Oi did riot, | answered the girl: "Did you want me} to mum?" "Why certainly," was the reply." Very well, mum," said Agnes. About two hours later Agnes present- ed herself to her mistress. "Oi have put them in soak, mum," she said, "but the pawnbroker wud give me only chew dollars on the whole outfit, here be the money, an' it's sorry oi am that ye bees so harrud up." Council Trying Hard To Map Out Program While the unemployment question here and throughout the world is ac- ute at the present time all of the heads of the city and of the country are busy trying to map out some plan whereby the situation might be relieved. Mem- bers of the City Council have the in- terests of the unemployed men at heart and are trying their hardest to map out a program of public works this fall and winter whereby many men might be put to work. It must be } remembered that every cent spent on relief and charity must come from the people who are paying taxes and many of these are finding it a difficult thing this year. BAY AND NIGHT.
