ffnnlin lu-tl frnln page ISI H Fish Story TRANCE as it may seem, all fish stories are not about those whoppers caught by members of a certain well-known club. This story, for instance, concerns fingerlings or infant fish. It was the last time I had spring fever that I met them as I was wandering along the lake- shore by the Provincial Fish Hatchery at Kings- ville. From the chief attendant I learned some interesting facts about the life history of the tiny fish. Every fall, after the middle of November, the commercial fishermen gather the spawn of the whitefish from their Lake Erie catch and bring it to the hatchery. This spawn is placed in large glass jug-like jars in which the water is con- tinually moving. These jars are arranged in tiers with the lips pointing outward. The lake water is pumped in at the natural temperature, and the excess goes over the lip into a trough. The troughs all merge into one in the centre of the building and from there the water returns to the lake. The fertile egg-masses are placed in these jars and left to Nature. After the arrival of spring, careful scrutiny will reveal minute, almost transparent bodies with two black eyes. These bodies gradually detach themselves from the egg-masses and, as newly hatched fish, follow the movement of the water into the tank. Each fingerling carries on it an egg sac on which it can feed for fifteen to twenty days. When the tank becomes crowded, overgrown milk cans are filled with fish and water and loaded on a truck. A truckload generally consists of about three million tiny fish. These are dumped. into merciless Lake Erie, from whence the spawn was received. Once in the lake, the tiny fish are left to fate. Some live to a hoary old age but the majority fall prey to other fish or the sport-loving members of the Whoppers' Club. -Gertrude Bergey, IV C. - 'H' , Products of' Quality AX Boomers Ltd. 2 if N Qyhu 5, -E- Candy - Ice Cream - Sodas UQQYQU Afternoon Teas LONDON Luncheons - Dinners 60 1: I-IAIRDRESSING :: Doreen Beauty Sllimjp ROYAL BANK BUILDING Richmond Street Cleanliness amntdl Sertujiee :: MRS.

The opposition threw a forward and the pigskin spiraled beauti- fully to the right side of the field. johnny seemed to sense the play. He leaped into the air, snagged the ball, and lifted his knees for locomotion. In a straight line he hugged the right side of the field, not a yard in from the sideline. He eluded two tacklers and then was in the clear. He scored standing up, with nobody even close to him. The kick was no good, but who cared? A few more plays and the game was over. The score was I0 to 6 in favour of Iohnny's team. And johnny Williams, everyone agreed, was everything his father said he was . . . He was the star of the greatest prison team in the country. -Grant Dorland, IV B. She: The doctor tells me that I need a change of climate. He: You'll get one. The thermometer is falling.
