before holding the 1 public auction herein mentioned, may adopt an ordinance prescribing the maximum amount of fees the contractors or lessees shall ex'lct upon fishermen, with the view to protecting the general public which may suffer from exorbitant .prices. of fish.

(11) The privilege of fishing granted a private party by _ any l<;ical government shou1d not be understood as to carry with it the privilege of fishing by unlawful means, such as dynamite and poison. lf'trovincial governors. are specially requested to see that the provisions of sections 1 and 2 of Act No. 1499, as amended by Act No. 1685, and section 1 of Act No. 2255 are enforced to the letter in order to. avoid the pract.ice of fishing by unlawful means. iF'Or this purpose, proper instructions should be issued to municipal officia.Js who must be made to understand that any failure on their part to fulfill their duties in this regard will be severely dealt with. Provincial and municipal officials under the jurisdiction of the Executive Bureau (now Department of the Interior) are instructed to cooperate fully with the Constabulary and to do everything poss• ible to prevent the continuance of this practice.

To be as lovely as it is in them .to be, all nature's creatures must be free, must dwell in .the place and the circumstances for which they were fitted in the beginning-bird in the sky, the fish in the sea, the man in his chosen field. My farmer f r i end is a most unhappy creature when he is forced to attend a social function. He wiggles and squirms until he gets behind a sheltering door and makes his escape at the first possible moment. On the farm he is another person. He stands like a monarch surveying his kingdom. He is the man he was intended to be, in the place that he knows to be his own. False ambition has not cheated him; greed has not blighted his Hou!; discontent has not robbed him of serenity; envy has not embittered him; peace has set the light of the Celestial City in his face, put power in his . mind and grace in his being. He is a Man. There is1 a place in this life where each of us fits. It is our mission to find it and glorify it. Compliments of M. Greenfield, Inc.
