R PEOPLE -' .:,;'', -"j , Professional ami Bum It's not the dye-in-the-wool anglers, so much as those who fish only a little and don't know too much about the sport, who surround angling with a "bouquet of phoniness." At least this is the opinion of Izaak Hunter (Montreal Gazette , a rotund and expert rod and gun writer who, as this, was written, was representing Quebec in the In-terprovincial Bass Derby negr Belleville, fishing against Ontario contestants. "In fishing some of the damnedest things can and do happen," writes Izaak. known equally well as George i Chief l j carpenter. Some of Hie best . fish stories are never heard simply because people who havej the experiences hesitate to re-j late them for fear of being put ( down as one more piscatorial , prevaricator." And, he adds, the relatively believable stories that do come out have marked jail anglers with the, brand of ananias. Recently, Izaak re lates, he heard a man, who knew not much of fishing, talk- liing about a 24-pound piks caught in Quebec's Lac Des Loups. The fish was described as 29 Inches long. "That," jajs Izaak, "would produce a pik. just about the size and shape! of a three-gallon keg of beer." He investigated the cateh hlm-0 self, found the pike actually was 46' 4 inches long. This outdoor writer has noted some lifed eyebrows In Montreal recently over the stories of sturgeon leaping clear of th water in Lake St. Louis, Lak- St- Francis and Lake of Two Mountains. Izaak figures sep- arate occasions they jumped body's boat. Why do they Jump? Well, Izaak says it may b to rid themselves of Lamprey eels or maybe just from a feeling of frolic.

The total handling ob which these mighty carriers do for the oil industry -lone totals well over six million tons a year. TOTH as producers and consumers, Canadians loo J to the railways to perform the heavy hauling on which their very lives derxnd. They must transport, for every Canadian every year, an average of about twelve tons of freight a distance ef 400 miles. And the railways ara at it, twenty-four hours a day. That faraway whistle in the quiet nirht means a heavijy-loaded freight is rur-liing fjootk to the morning market-moving materials to a waiting f.xt cry -carrying food to a distant seaport for shipment overseas. In this land of great distances, our existence depends on railways railways which are efficient and adequate to our needs. The Railways are Ei3 Oil BUYERS, too Fuel oil for locomotives, gasoline for trucks, lubricating oils-they all add up to a healthy sum . . . many, many millions last year. The railways are major users of the products of Canada's farms and forests, factories and mines-in fact their purchases cover over 70,000 items. They are the country's Lie-sl buyers. advert . mm . tillB ,w n. tV.-K flr lll. ii.ninii ,nr T m llnU, turn, out rju.Mi u, k.H i;.HM.u; railway. - oi uur mjjikUoi( ,v.
