A Thing of Beauty is a Joy for Ever.
To the Editor. Sir,—(Permit me to make the suggestion that the lake on Iho west side of Clyde street near Tweed street be brought under notieo of the Acclimatisation .Society'. Ik chaps the secretary could persuade that ,austere body to acquire the property and introduce some eels, and thereby encourage our growing hoys to try their 'prentice hands on these omnivorous Osh before aspiring to outwit the wily trout. Failing the above desirable result, it would perhaps be worth while to approach the Scenery Conservation Commissioners with a view to having this thing of beauty "preserved.’' Co to the present lime tho only persons who appear to have appreciated the value of this local asset are Home small boys, who may be observe*! sailing primitive iniode! yachts over its sparkling waters.—t am. etc.. WADERS. k’dth April.
