iFrom the 01* Soudough’s Nature Notebook
j Since our call for specimens of the
jHandsaw Fish we have,heard of a specimen
jbeing caught. The first was caught off
jthe Loran Station on. a hook by the boys
from the Coast Guard Station and the 2nd
jwas found on the beach at Great Sitkin
[by the crow of the Panameta, The 3rd
ispecimen was found by Mr. Jim Fischer
jafter it was washed ashore on the Bering
Sea shore near Andrew’s Lake. This spec
imen measured 54 inches in -length. The
body and dorsal fin were fairly well man
gled but the head was in .- fair shape and
ian attempt will be made to taxidermy it
:for the museum-. The fish is noted for
its long eel like body, fang like teeth
resembling the barracuda, and a large
idorsal- fin like the sailfish. It has no
jscalos and has a dorsal adipose fin..
•; On display for this coming week will
ibe a display of worms found on,Adak.
I This, display is an outgrowth, of a
Statement by a local fisherman saying
jthere were no fishing worms on Adak and
that ho was thinking, of sending, state
side for them. One of the species is a
[salt water annelid which is related to
[the earthworm as we know them stateside.
The main difference being the evolving
jgills along its side'for breathing, I
don’t know if these* worms will make good
bait but you can get them by the hundred
iby digging at Clam Lagoon,
j . The movie ’’Timber and T'otem Poles,”
presented on TV last Thursday was thru
[the courtesy of the Adak Sportsman Club.•

"If any man not love Our Lord Jesus
Christ, let him be anathema"(lCor.XVL22)
Yesterday,Pain Sunday^vs entered ihto j
Holy Week., As we approach Good .Friday, !
the day on which Christ died upon the I
cross, we cannot help but wonder when we !
behold the love of God for men who i
■were the cause of His death. It is a |
tender, generous and constant love. He j
has shown it towards them by making Him- |
self man and abiding With'men; 1 He has !
shown it in His Passion and His death; !
wishing them to peirce His side that He
might pour -out what remained of His
Blood and. open to us a portal by which j
we. might enter. "
Another cause of surprise is the in j
gratitued of men.. In this classrare those j
who will not. profit by His graces, all !
those who will neither suffer nor deny I«
themselves anything, such as, movies, j
dances and parties, at least during Holy j
IWeek* -
j - The doctrine of the Cross we find in
iSt. Luke IX,23-27: And he said to all,
|"If anyone wishes to come after me, let
;him deny himself, and take up his cross
idaily, and follow me. For he who would
|save his life will lose it; but he who
iloses his life for*my sake will save it.
jFor what does it profit a man, if he
[gain the,whole world, but ruin or lose
jhimself? For whoever is ashamed of me
land my words, of him will the Son of Man
jbe ashamed when he comes in his glory
land that of the Father and of the Holy
iAngels."
