ITHACA WINS 
The lower end of the pool sloped into 
shallow ripples which extended for a 
hundred yards or so before forming an- 
other pool. It was conceded that a fish 
reaching those ripples was lost, so con- 
sequently Ollie bent all his energies in 
this one direction. 
But the big fish seemed in no hurry 
to depart the pool. He surged back and 
forth across the pool in mighty lunges 
as though unable to decide where to go ; 
Ollie retrieving the line very nicely and 
paying it out grudgingly by thumbing to 
the breaking point. A powerful surge 
into the deep water at the center of the 
pool was followed by absolute quietness 
on the part of the great trout. Ollie 
tugged uneasily at the line and met solid 
resistance — “Give him the butt !’’ we 
yelled as one voice — and Ollie did. 
L^p from the depths like a cannon ball 
shot the trout. The water cleaved open 
and full four feet into the air shot the 
largest trout it has ever been my for- 
tune to see. The spray flew in all direc- 
tions, and through it we saw the speckled 
monster give his jaws a mighty snap, 
and as he splashed into the water again 
Ollie reeled in an unresisting line. A 
moment later the water boiled at the 
head of the ripples, and with his back 
half out of w'ater, the “big one” dashed 
wildly down through the rapids to free- 
dom. Once again was fisherman’s his- 
tory repeated. 
Ollie, though, was supreme even in 
defeat, and the words he called after the 
departing trout e.xactly echoed the senti- 
ments of all present. “I go,” said 
Ollie, “but I will return” — and when he 
returns I’ll bet a cocked hat the same 
old gang will hear him company, in fact, 
we have already granted all rights on 
that same pool to him for next year. 
If the truth be known, we all have our 
particular spot in this Fisherman’s Para- 
dise we would call our own, and when 
they speak of twenty-pound trout I 
maintain a’ discreet but smiling silence. 
I know. 
THE SHACKBOAT 
{Continued from page 413) 
other use, and a pail or bailing scoop or 
pump. In seasons and localities where 
needed a mosquito bar should be hung 
from the top and tucked in under the 
mattress. A couple of good lanterns, 
one of which should be kept burning on 
the outermost end of the boat at night 
if you are anchored where there is apt 
to be traffic. 
IF you venture into any of the nayi- 
gable rivers, bays or lakes remember 
that you are subject to the rules for mo- 
tor boats of Class One and provide com- 
bination red and green lights, whistle 
(mouth), life- preserver and fire extin- 
guisher. All of these things are good 
to have anyway. The kapoc-filled cush- 
ions serve as life preservers. For cook- 
ing and such equipment follow the ca- 
noeist and get some form of nesting kit. 
Take advantage of the fact that you are 
a boat, however, and get a good large 
pail. One of the numerous forms of 
gasoline or oil-burning stoves can be 
used nicely as also one of the baby re- 
frigerators sold by any department or 
furnishing store. Grub can be kept in 
boxes furnished by the grocer. There 
is also room for a couple of suit cases 
for your clothes, vastly more convenient 
than the camper’s bag. 
There is plenty of time to build one 
of these shackboats for late summer va- 
cations and maybe you know of just the 
place for one on that shooting ground 
this fall. 
EXPLORATION IN 
GREENLAND 
pREENLAND BY THE POLAR 
^ SEA, by Knud Rasmussen, Freder- 
ick A. Stokes Company. Price $10.00. 
A reading of this most excellent book, 
which describes the work of the Thule 
Expeditions in a region that has held the 
attention of Polar explorers for cen- 
turies, adds greatly to our knowledge of 
Eskimo life and ways and brings out the 
splendid character of these nomads of 
the North. The three Thule Expedi- 
tions completed the exploration of the 
north coast of Greenland, and theii; work 
is graphically described in the present 
book. It brings out clearly the remark- 
able influence the late Admiral Peary 
exerted on the Eskimos of Greenland, 
and tells of the immense respect and ad- 
miration they had for him because of his 
straightforward and honest dealings. 
His magnanimous treatment of them did 
much to make the paths of later ex- 
plorers easy. 
The hook is profusely illustrated and 
will easily take its place among the few 
great books on Arctic exploration.
