These are the days when UNION 
CAMP TRAILER owners are slipping out 
of town for real times in the open. Some 
make nightly trips to the country to sleep 
in the trailer. Others go out over Sun¬ 
days—to fish or camp. Still others are 
thousands of miles from home on trans¬ 
continental tours. 
The Union Trailer is an all-purpose out¬ 
door home. At $198 a first class trailer, 
frame folding tent, double spring beds and 
mattresses, etc., are included. Fully guar¬ 
anteed. New literature tells all about it 
and how easily your car draws it.

says: 
“Lot’s of people think there is a big 
secret about catching fish, but there 
aint nothing of the kind. All you have 
to do is just fish where the fish are and 
use your brains mixed with plenty of 
elbow grease.” 
The Shannon Twin Spinner 
will enable you to fish where the fish are and 
will prove that you have used your brains, for 
the Shannon is about the only bait there is 
with which you can always fish where the fish 
are. No matter how thick the rushes or lilies 
are, you can cast right into them without fear 
of fouling. As for attractiveness, the game fish 
don’t live that can resist it. It gets big catches 
where others fail. Try it and see for yourself. 
You’ll have the best fishing you ever had in 
your life.

Dept. S, 736 South California Ave. 
CHICAGO ILLINOIS 
sure of his thumb on the spool, hut 
still maintaing a certain light and uni¬ 
form pressure to prevent the reel from 
back-lashing and the line from over¬ 
running; the minnow was neatly cast, 
in this way, some seventy-five feet, and 
just beyond the riffle. Then he reeled 
slowly, keeping the minnow near the 
surface (there being no sinker), and 
just as it was passing through the 
broken water of the riffle, a bass seized 
it on the run and continued his rush 
up-stream toward deep water. Igna¬ 
tius reeled his line rapidly until he 
felt the weight of the fish, which then 
gave a short tug or two, when he was 
allowed to take a few feet of line, 
though grudgingly and sparingly, so 
as to keep it taut. Ignatius then, feel¬ 
ing the bass pull steadily and strongly 
drove in the steel by a simple turning 
over of the rod-hand, while drawing 
firmly on the line; this set the hook. 
The bass continued his race by swim¬ 
ming rapidly between Ignatius and the 
shore and then up the river, describ¬ 
ing a half-circle, the line being the 
radius. The bass, finding his progress 
thus stayed, sprang clear of the water 
several times in quick succession; but 
Ignatius, instead of slackening the line, 
skilfully turned the bass over in the 
air by a slightly-increased tension as it 
left the water, thus preventing, by an¬ 
other method, his falling across the 
taut line. This latter mode requires 
more adroitness than the plan used by 
the Professor, of lowering the tip of 
the rod to slacken the line as the fish 
falls back, but it can be more suc¬ 
cessfully and safely accomplished with 
the shorter and stiff er minnow-rod 
than with the fly-rod. The bass was 
sooner exhausted and brought to creel 
than if he had been down-stream, not 
having the strength of the current to 
aid him. 
“That is the best fish yet taken, Ig¬ 
natius,” said the Professor; “he will 
scale fully three pounds, and you 
landed him in two minutes.” 
“One should hold hard and kill 
quick.” 
“With a qualification as to the rod, 
that is the true principle,” returned 
the Professor. “With a properly made, 
light, and flexible rod, yes; with a 
bean-pole, no. With a well-balanced, 
supple rod of eight ounces, a pound 
bass, even in swift water, can be easily 
killed in a minute, and one of five 
pounds in five minutes.” 
The Professor and Ignatius, having 
each taken a dozen bass, reeled up their 
lines and retraced their steps toward 
the wagon for luncheon. Turning a 
bend in the river, they came in sight 
of Luke, still sitting on the log with 
a firm hold on the rod, but sound 
asleep. 
“Behold the ideal still-fisher!” ob¬ 
served the Professor.
