At an time when Cumberland county embraced a large part of New Brunswick. and all that por- tion of Nova Bcotla which lies north of King's county there were a large number of slaves in this province. but very few of them were located in Oumberland. John Young. in the township of Am- herst. possessed a negro boy in the year 1771. At Aulac and Lalflanche. there were also several who had come with omcers of disbanded regiments at the close of the war with France. says the Nova Scotia Historical Society records. The sturdy immigrants from Yorkshire had little use or sympathy for s‘a.vc dealing. occasionally, however. these was an exception. for it is record- ed that William Bulmer owned a slave who was kno\'n as “Black Jack." This man was given his freedom when Mr. Bulmer died in 1792. In ‘port Lawrence also. there was a girl who became WEU-l(ll0Wll to succeeding generations. for she

No matter in whatever locality he may abide. unless it has the gravel- ly bottom and steer cold water, the trout will become degen ate and bear the marks of the unhappy place he calls his home,

Up to a period not many years past. when our knowledge of the -breeding and life history of the salmon and trout was based on dmultory observation of in their natural condition, there existed a great deal of uncertainty and diversity of opinion on the sub- ject. Within the last sixty years the extensive practice of salmon culture has removed nearly all ob- scurity from the phenomena. and the history of salmon and trout is now more accurately known than that of most fishes.

Fish culture in Canada. at first a private enterprise on a small scale. received a kind of semi-of-

ed in 1496. Between that time and the present there have been near- ly a thousand books or parts of books published upon the subject. The salmon is one of the noblest

angler trles his art. This also alp- piia to trout fishing. The quality of sport is in ratio of the delicacy of the t.ack‘e used. Doubtrless there is an exultant pulse compelling pride in landing a. monster sal- mon. which docs not pertain to ordinary or extraordinary trout fishing. but as to the comparative merits of the two species it is a question which should be voted the nobler game. their habits, haunts and characteristics are identical in many respects. and excepting in size. one may be justly regarded the peer of the other. This single difference may be adjusted by a proper adaption of the tack‘e em- played to capture them. It is cer- tainly rougher work to kill a sal- mon and vastly more fatiguing.

some sportsmen delight to assert that, sinus they became recognized anglers they have never taken a trout except with a fly. I cannot admit the implication that a man who uses bait is onsequently a creel stuffer or deficient, in the scientific accomplishment of the craft. Fly fishing and hail. fishing are co-ordinate branches of the same study. Each must be thor- oughly learned to qualify the as- pirant to master the art. Each method of fishing has its advan- tagar. one may be made available where the other is whouy imprec- calble.

Fly fishing gives more varied play. and greater exercise. it bestows is keener excitement. it intensifies the perceptive faculties. it requires nicer judgment than ba.lt fishing. quicker and more delicate manipu- lation and greater promptness in emergencies and it is more hum. anising in its imluence. For my. self, I svow an unqualified prefer- ence for the fly in all cases where its use is practicable.

in Health texts or elsewhere some statements which do not favor the use of alcohol as a beverage even in small doses. I have not heard these views seriously contradicted. 1. The stimulating effect of al- cohol is followed by a feeling of depression and irritablcnus.

2. The self-confidence is accom- panied by s lessening of mental and physical control. Acclmcy in skilled work is proved to suffer. 3. Alcohol is haobit iiorming in many people and nothing short of very strong will power will prevent increased consumption. worry and disappointment would naturally increase the desire for this tem- porary means of release.

4. Alcohol was banned on Arctic expeditions where exttreme cold must be faced. because it flushes the skin but leaves the central or- gans with a shortage of blood sup- ly.

For every benefit alcohol offers there seems to be a serious detri- ment to the individual and there- fore to society which is made up of individuals.

I do not think it is fair to leave out the relation of the drunkard to the moderate drinker. I leave you to make your own guess as to how many present day drtlnlcards start- ed as the moderate drinkers. Also as to what percentage of the young men now taking their first glasses of alcoholic beverages will become drunlrards who will spend their money. health. success and soul for that innocent, little fun-inaker "al- cohol." This moderate drinker sneers at the drunkard and yet it is the moderate drinker who en- courages a young man or woman to take the first drink of intoxicat- ing liquor producing in the end I. new crop of drunkards. can you imagine Jesus today in the com- pany of his twelve disciples taking a bottle of whiskey from his pocket and inviting each one to take a “anort."
