E. R. Dampier, Herb. and Reub. Heald and Spencer 
Folkedal brought in about 200 pounds of pike Sunday 
evening, the result of a day’s fishing at Ten Mile lake,

I wrote these swine asking if this report 
was correct and here is their answer: 
Yours of the 15th inst. at hand. In reply 
would offer the enclosed photo, a poor 
picture, but good evidence of our work. 
We caught 200 pike, not 200 pounds of 
pike. Our fish weighed in the neighbor- 
hood of 450 pounds. In the picture you 
can see but about half of the catch as the 
fish are strung double. We used min- 
nows for bait and were only out 2% 
hours. This is a little larger catch than 
usual in this locality, but fish of all kinds 
abound in the lakes about here, and large 
catches are not unusual.

“T paid $4 for that dog. 
“That seems a good deal for a dog like 
pate 
“But the dog has a wonderful pedigree.” 
“How far-back do they trace it? To 
the dog that Noah took on the ark?” 
“This dog’s ancestor didn’t go on the 
rire tee, 
“Why not?” 
“He had a bark of his own.’—Cleve-
