Badua was charged with murder.

"We have the DeSoto River about a mile from our home and It la full of black bass. Some of them run up to three or four pounds but most of them are about a pound and a half in weight. We are building a dam that will make a lake about a mile and a half long and then we will have some real fishing.

It used to take the best part of a day to drive to the river, as It was 27 miles, and that was a very good day's drive.

Goggan's Ferry was a favorite spot to camp. It was a short distance above the present bridge near Sayre. The water was so clear and pure that It was full of bass and bream as well as other kinds of fish. On one occasion Gerald Haran, Dan Cutcliff, Berney Murphy and I went there to fish, but after the long trip when we searched through our duffle we found that none of us had a hook. On another occasion I had set out a pole by sticking the end In the bank, and when we came down after dinner the line was pulled out at an agle that indicated a fish was on it.

When I pulled it up a soft-shell turtle had run against the hook and it had caught Just under the shell so that as long as the turtle pulled the hook held, but as soon as I -caught hold of it the hook dropped out. This turtle In the river and that nearly every one who goes out brings In long strings of them. "I believe' that more fish were brought Into Camp Oliver last Sunday than any day since I've been at the camp." said Mr. Wayland. "A number of fine bass were taken, one of four pounds, another of four and a half pounds and a whopper of five, pounds.

This big one was taken at the mouth of Hurricane Creek around the snags. Just across the river from the mouth of this creek, where the snags are in the bend, many fine white perch have been taken lately. The water Is deep, not less than 20 feet I should say, so It Is well to go down after them In fishing there.

Some of the best known sportsmen of the district have been connected with the firm at different times, Ed Warren, Jack Ulddle (he said today that he bought his first gym suit there in 1S88), Bun Alverson, Gordon Hickman and others. Beach Chcno-weth in acquiring a controlling Interest announces that R.

H. Baugh will still be actively connected with the business. "One reason wny so tew people catch fish when they go out," said O. H. Smith, "is because they give very little heed to their tackle.

Most of them seem to think that all they need is a striug with a hook on It. But let me tell you that the fish around this town are educated and it takes more than that to fool them. I have devised my own methods of taking bass and bream and it has been" very successful. I use a three-foot leader and have the lead beaten out very thin so that it can be wound around the leader and not show a lump as I have figured out that this lead frightens the fish. The sinker should be about 10 inches from the hool as this gives the fish plenty of room to get the bait In his mouth before he feels the hook.

Sometimes I marvel at the big bass and bream that are In Riddle's Lake and am sure that It must be the plants which are so plentiful, there are several varieties, and this furnishes an abundant Bupply of food for the fish. Of course the water is adapted to the growth of these fish too. It Claude Edwards nd B. F. Mcpherson, of Ensley, caught a fine string from Short Creek, which Is Just In front of Oliver's.

"Catching a bass on a plug is certainly a thrilling experience," said Roy Jones. "I was casting in Short Creek Monday and had thrown up close to a big log, I had reeled the bait about 10 feet when, slam, a fish hit the plug. I became so excited that I hardly knew when I got the fish to the boat. When I threw the bait out again another hit and I reeled him In. When CITY EMPLOYES CHOSEN JASl'ER, Oct.

was full of eggs, and we ate so maay that I've never been able to enjoy them since. If we could have a hard rain, the fishing would be much better after the water clears, as It Is so clear now that a fish can see objects many feet away. There Is a popular belief that crappies will bite more freely if the fisherman makes a lot of noise. But that seems foolish. One of the worst things that can be done is to hit the side or bottom of the boat, as sound travels far on the water.

Conversation doesn't frighten the fish, but too much noise will cause you to catch the little fellows. Grasshoppers are a mighty tempting bait now, for they are continually failing into the water. Don't injure them any that you can help, and their struggles will be more attractive to Mr. Bass. would be a fine location for a fish hatchery for there la a bountiful sup-i ply of water." mm JI V' 1" 5 T' L.

Why, my sister, Mrs. Perkins, caught the first one and it weighed 40 pounds. We caught so many that It became work Instead of sport." "I've been out a number of times and "had some good sport." said W. S.

Cros- Minnows are becoming very scarce, but they can nearly always be found at the little new store where the old hill road comes into the new Camp Oliver road. After everything is said, no bait equals a lively branch minnow. Many fishermen make the mistake of picking out the big minnows, thinking, of course, that they will catch the big fish, but this Isn't always true, and more big fish have been taken on medium or small sized minnows than with any other bait. The big white perch are always taken with small minnows. And very often they secern to prefer the dead ones.

We caught them so fast that at one time I had each foot on one in the bottom of the boat, one In my lap and another In my hand. AVe have been down there on two occasions lately, taking 46 one time and 41 the other. W. H. Meseroll and I enjoyed" a great fish at Swan near Decatur lately." said Walter Whitehead.

"My boy caught a three-pound bass and all of us had all the fish that we wanted. I hooked into a monster that a mule could not have pulled from the water, but like all of the other big qnes It got away. There are some of the biggest fish up there that I've ever seen." Be very careful about fires and don't leave any smouldering logs as they may break into flames and cause serious damage to your favorite fishing place. "Years ago Lige Hennessee and I went hunting In the valley below where Edgewood Park now stands," said V. S.

Reynolds. "In those days it was no trouble to find plenty of birds, but our difficulty was to hit them.

None of these need cooking and will keep for several days. One prominent fisherman says that he has planned to give his wife a thermos. Jug for a Christmas present this year. The board of revenue should scrape the new road from Oak Grove to the river as. it is very rough in places and some of the big stones which were put in didn't slack and they are ruinous on tires.

The cost of this would be less than the amount that is being paid out weekly in repairs on the sportmen's cars. Camp Branch is about two miles below White Oak, on the same side of the river, and it Is the likeliest looking place for bass that can be found. There are two arms that rim back for about a half miles so that a full day's fishing could be enjoyed. George Mabry says that he has taken some fine ones from it. His camp is Just across the river.

On the other bank, about a mile further, Is the mouth of thoal Creek and this is another good place for bass. A motor is a delightful pleasure and takes much of the work out of a day's fishing but It can be used to a great disadvantage. Many a sportsmen spend most of their time running about over the river hunting a good place to fish instead of dropping their hook close to camp and catching a good string. Some of these far away places are fished more than the ones nearby, consequently the fish are much scarcer and more wary. Almost everyone is familiar with the old method of skittering for bass by tying a three-foot line on a lone cane pole and using plug in this way but I've never seen ft used around the river.

In many sections It is very successful and it may be that we are passing up something good. Won't some of you try It and make a report? S. Davis, J. M. Stewart.
