Labrador re-

managed to discourage the lynx
into retreat with one well-aimed
Whack. The lynx, above, looks

for shipment September 18. Dick ac-
companied the drive as far as Far-
well Bridge. Even the round-up, ac-
cording to Jim Bonner, was compli
cated by so much rain. High water,
mud, and boggy swamps made it a
tiresome job for both horses and
men,

For Fire Survivors

The whole community of Lac La
Hache is helping out in collecting a
fund for Bill Allsopp and his family
to start them on their feet again
after the terrible fire. To date there
has been over $1500 raised.

THERE WAS A TIME when a
rancher could slaughter a beef and
leave it hanging overnight on his
windlass to cool. This can’t be done
anymore with safety, as Bordie Fel-
ker discovered yesterday. One of his
nice prime animals had been left on
the windlass, and come morning, the
front quarters had been neatly re-
moved.
