EFFECT OF WAR ON FISH
Plaice Taken in the North Sea Are
Much Larger Than They Were
Before Year 1914.
The plaice, which is a common
fish in the European waters, has un
dergone some remarkable changes
since the war, and scientists are en
deavoring to explain it. It is stated
that the North sea plaice are dif
ferent in size from those taken on
the same grounds before the war,
since when large areas have been in
closed by mines. In the southern
part of the North sea the largest
plaice captured are larger and good
sized fish more common, while on
some grounds where before the war
small plaice were common there are
now no small specimens to be
found. Danish investigations have
shown a difference in the opposite
direction. The size of the plaice on
their shores has definitely decreased
since the war began. In other
words, fish of a given size are older
than formerly. The object of the
research vessel’s second cruise was
to transplant small plaice from the
Continental shallows to the Dogger
bank. It has been found that plaice
thus moved grew at least twice as
much in length as they would have
done if left on their home ground,
and that there is an increase of
weight of three and one-half times.

PASSED UP GENEROUS OFFER
Lodge Member Might Have Stayed and
Delivered Address, but, Well, Un
der the Circumstances—
Milo Meredith of Wabash, dig
nitary in the Knights of Maccabees,
is forced to travel much over the
lodge territory, addressing local
lodges and seeing that everything is
well with the organizations in In
diana. Recently Mr. Meredith had
^11 his teeth pulled and until the
new teeth can arrive he attempted
to call off the lodge engagements.
Last week, however, he was sum
moned to a neighboring city to at
tend a conclave. He talked with
the lodge officials and tried to ex
cuse himself from attending the
meeting because he knew he would
be called on for an address. He
explained the reason for the appa
rent modesty and started to leave
the lodge room when an old mem
ber called him to one side and in
all earnestness said: “Mr. Mere
dith, we don’t wan’t you to leave
now. I don’t need my teeth very
bad tonight and you can just use
them while you make your talk.”
Mr. Meredith says the story ends
there, because he did not make the
address.—Indianapolis- News.
