130 TKe Determined Angler 



Secret of Angling. "Fishing is more than catching. 

 Its pleasures are the whole outdoors. Appreciation 

 is the secret of the lure. " Theodore Macklin. 



Limit in Angling. "It is very foolish for Anglers, 

 when they get more fishes than they want, to even 

 give them away; far better it would be for them 

 to stop fishing when they have caught enough for 

 themselves, and give the fish a chance. " George 

 Hartley. 



Age of Angling. "The allurement of fishing is as 

 old as the granite mountains of the Andes. Down 

 through the ages of the past, even from the day of the 

 anthropophagi, comes to us the fact that all the world 

 rejoices in the gentle art of fishing. Fishing the one 

 word that opens up to our understanding the philo- 

 sophy of nature is the fundamental basis of our 

 civilization." David Jones. 



Gentility in Angling. "Sportsmanship abhors 

 greed and all vulgarity. " H. W. Wack. 



Angling Clears the Brain. "When we are confused 

 and harried by the turmoil of modern life, our heads 

 and our hearts aching with its complex problems, its 

 exigent demands, its rebuffs, and its bitter disappoint- 

 ments, let us turn once more to the forest and meadow, 

 the peaceful stream, with the fleecy clouds or over- 

 hanging boughs kindly tempering the rays of the 

 summer sun; let us drop our pens, abandon for the 

 nonce our manuscript, our ledgers, or the stock re- 

 ports of the day, and 'go a-fishing.'" Willis Boy d 

 Allen.
