250 TROUT FISHING 



the angler can throw more and bigger stones with 

 better aim, battle is less admirable than flight. 



But I have already said that the Public does not 

 throw stones much, and generally I do not think 

 it hostile to us. It is just a great alien thing, which 

 is not unfriendly but simply does not understand. 

 That is deplorable from one point of view, and it 

 leads to troubles as I have said, but there are com- 

 pensations. If the Public understood it would also 

 angle, and where should we be then ? It would be 

 all troubles and no fish.
