July 1, 1924.
Dr. Cecil K. Drinker,
Harvard University School of Public Health,
55 Van Dyke St.,
Boston,
Mass.
Dear Dr. Drinker:
I shall be very happy to send you a couple of
luminous fish baits and will also take the opportunity of sending
some to Mr. Singnaster.
It will probably take a few days to make
them up.
After your brother has tried them out, I should like to
know what he thinks of them.
Several of my friends are fishermen
and I have in the past supplied various types of luminous bait and
have all sorts of conflicting reports, which is perhaps to be
expected under the circonstances.
Some say that they scared the
fish away. others that they would be just as good if they vere not
illuminated, and there is the occasional rare optimist vho claims that
a luminous glass minnow is the choicest lind of diet for any fish.
Cordially,
President.
