BRESLIN'S LETTER August 15, 1938 Piho-ne 68r2 Orono Tinshop No need to go out of town for your PLUMBING & HEATING NEEDS First-class work guaranteed Fighting Game Fish Across Canada 1 ^ HOLIDAY opportunities in the thousands of lakes, rivers and streams of Canada afford fishing opportunities which are unexcelled anywhere In the world. The wide stretches of the Domi- nion are liberally supplied with forest and lake-land, abounding with game fish and animals, where lovers of the great out-of- doors can find a sports district to suit their every whim. Fishing conditions are so varied in Canada and the species of game fish so numerous that a small booklet is required merely to list all the fish and regulations of the different sections. Deep-sea fish- ing is found on both ocean coasts, I for half-ton tuna off Nova Scotia and equally large sharks near Vancouver Island; five-pound, small-mouth black bass at the Devil’s Gap Camp, Lake of the Woods district, and in hundreds of lakes in Eastern Canada, vie for popularity with 40-pound maskinonge at such favored re- sorts as the French River Camp in Ontario; fighting trout, of several species are found every- where in Canada, most popular regions among anglers being the Laurentian Mountains, north of- Montreal, or the mile-high lakes surrounding Banff and Lake Louise in the Canadian Rockies; and mighty salmon bring joy to the hearts of .anglers in the Mari- times. These few highlights of Can- ada’s many, fishing opportunities illustrate why Canadian sports- men fishing in their home waters are joined every year by so many thousand anglers from, the United States and overseas. Conditions, possibilities and regulations vary so widely in different sections that anglers planning to visit strange districts would do well to find out all about them in ad- vance from A. O. Seymour, gen- eral tourist agent, Canadian Paci- fic Railway, Montreal, or from fishing booklets obtainable at all Canadian Pacific offices. pump ait Long Reach pavilion.

Mr. R .A. Forrester, Orono Times, Orono, Ont. Dear Sir: This will confirm my telephonic protest of Monday, August 15-th, con- cerning .a- malicious article which you publis-hed about me in your news- paper. That, y-ou attribute the re- marks to Mr. Morrow, your corres- pondent, does- not'excuse you from being . a party to this criminal pro- cedure. There are many ways in which an editor of a newspaper can be of use to a community in which he re-, sides but, a law-abiding community is well rid of a. paper and an editor who resorts to ignorant, malicious libel as a means for. creating interest and circulation. I am not cage* to take advantage of the Criminal Code to teach you a lesson and, ais I have already stated, it will be sufficient if you and your correspondent, under your own names, refract to me personally and publish noticeable statements .in. the -Canadian Statesman and t-he Orono Times. It is expected -of course that my let- ter to you will be published along with your retraction. It may be of interest to you to know that the outfit which I wore on thé occasion which you refer to con- sisted of white shoes, white woollen -so'cks, tailored gray-stripe flannel eo-at and shorts, white shirt a-nd coloured neck-tie. This garb differs entirely from the inference in your news item. Yours sincerely, William W. .Breslin.. The Orono Weekly Times gladly publishes the above letter from D-r. William W. Breslin, Evodontis-t, of 455 Sipàdina Awe., Toronto, and both the" Orono. Weekly Times and its Kirby correspondent regret the pub- lication of the -item, referring to a Mr. .Breslin. in.'the Kirby correspond- ence of the issue qf the Orono Weekly Times of August 11th, 1938, which was published without sufficient in- vestigation but" without actual malice and without gross negligence and both trust that this apology may com- pensate for any unfortunate results of su-ch publication.
