Claflin.) In this article I propose to tell you of a region which affords today the best fishing remaining to us in Wisconsin. I have a first-hand knowledge of practically all of the water of our state and, unhesitatingly pronounce the Hayward country as leading them all In possibilities. Thia is not hearsay, for we have Just returned from a somewhat extended trip through the lake region of the north, the last several days of which were spent on the many fine lakes, the Flambeau and Chippewa rivers In near Hayward. We claim this country Is, barring none, the best we have left for the reason that you can take' mus-kles, bass, wall-eyes or at your and there are plenty of them yet. For some unexplain-able reason the supplyseepiB Inexhaustible.

True, the live bunch of sportsmen and members, of the Hayward. Publicity Asaoclation stock the waters where needed, and do it in an intelligent way that brings results. However, not many of the waters seem, as yet, to need restocking, hence our claim that this region Is the best we have left. We are not at all over-enthused by results obtained on our trip, although we caught plenty of all the different species. We know -the.

fish are there; we know the roads throughout that country are, the finest we ever drove we know your every whim can be satsfied; and the attenton shown to you, together with the cuisine of the few resorts is above reproach. It mtrr aound a trifle far-fetched to some of the fishermen who have vlsfted certain highly advertised, but badly-fished resorts, when we say, that, once you are In Hayward, all you have to do is see Kirk Dav- les, the genial Secretary of the Publlcty Association, or Frank Schweger, editor of newspaper, or Mr. Schmidt, President of the association, tell them what kind of fish you want to catch, and you are Immediately set onto the trail to the land of your dreams where you always get results. And they'll -drop their work and go with you if you want them- -it does not take much persuasion either. You will understand It is fairly good when, I say we had eight strike from muskies In the fore noon (df one day on Lower Twin lake nd then finished In the after noon by taking twenty six bass on another lake in two hours fishing.

And we took them all on files.

EOPI (By Gene Cohn) Nea Service Writer NEW YORK With considerable timidity those who had seen Emll Jannlngs in "The Last Laugh'. approached the pre-view of his first production in America, "The Way of All Flesh." It is a good picture, In spite of the Hollywood story which he has been and Jannlngs remains the greatest character actor "the screem- has preduced. He Is to cinema tragedy what.

Chaplin is'to comedy. The first 20 minutes of the pic ture, wherein Jannlngs is portrayed as a thrifty, bewhiskered bank cashier, in jMilwaukeey promised one of the finest things he has done. And then the film "went Hollywood." Sent with valuable securities to Chicago, he la vamped on the, train by a "gang-girl" and robbed after a champagne Jag. With ruin staring him in the face he hunts down the girl, 1b knocked out by a gangster and taken to. a railroad track to be finished.

He recovers in time to toss a gangman under the train. Circumstances make it appear that the cashier has been killed and he Is willing to let It stay that wayvHe reappears at the end of the plsure-an old and broken man, roturninX to his home town to find-his sn a' famous musician and, wandering Into the peanut gallery, listensyto him play. At this pointannlngs gives the most heartbreaking performance or nls career, i nav never seen such suffering mirroreitJn the eyes of a mime. Of course Hollywood would arrange a Christmas eve, upon which the old man goes to peep inHe nHndrtw ATI1 RAA ttlA hflnnv pplfe. bratlon of his family and, ofh- 4 vt .1 i in course uio cuys boo mui, ia wily runs out and no one knows him.

And so he lumbers away Into the snowstorm. To the credit of Victor Fleming, the director, it may be added, that he brings to the picture all the camera skill of the Germans who, up to this time, had photographed Jannlngs. His trickery, dissolves and general lightning and his handling of street crowds are nothing short of stunning. It remains that the scenario boys; of Hollywood are the weakest sisters of the film business. With such an artist to write for and such a foundation of story to work upon, there seems little ex cuse for dragging out of all the old bunkum of the cinema cellars.

But so Interesting is Jannlngs at all times that one Is likely to for give and forget. Oh yes the title has noth ing to do with Samuel Butler's great book of the same name.

CONTROL TALK AND THEN FLOOD, COO LID GE PLAN WASHINGTON President Coo-lidge has already made plain his belief that if we are to have -real flood control, Congressional word control Is a first necessity. When the statesmen, real and near, were insistent, eyen while the flood- was at Its crest, that they be-allowed to reassemble and talk it, over, he refused.

He saw Inevitably what their talk would amount to. It would fatten the pages of the Congressional Record, but leave the levees broken and flat. To the credit of Senator Jim Reed of Missouri, the quiet but effective "No-No" of the president to all demands for an extra session, has been assayed at its true value, and agrees that an extra session as suggested would have been actually harmful. The delay hai been most valuable, because, it has been utilized by the President In the forwarding of careful, systematic engineering, agricultural and financial surveys of the flood Bwept area. The Bubetance of these Investigations will be Incorporated In the President's message to Congress, and It is the opinion of those who are acquainted with all conditions that while even in February next, the exact line of procedure may not be clearly evident, that there will be enough actual facts and conclusions on hand, so that definite legislation can be put under way.

Once again the President has proved that haste makes waste, and that in many cases; to use the old say-mg, the longest way 'round, Is the shortest way home. It is a short road that bag no blllboardi. i -t A brain lg only as-strong as lta weakestthlnk. Obituary day night, was found near the Clark Grain and Fuel company's warehouse, W.
