Donald Grey shipped a car of hay
this week, the first of the season. A
lot of hay has been shipped into the
district this season, but the local hay
crop was good and local people do not
have to ship in.

One day last week the ladies in New
Hazelton got word that there was 1
great big black bear prowling around
the back yards of the upper part of
town. As the men folk were all away
working, and as it wes broad day
light, the girls got their guns and went
forth to do battle with the bear. They
hunted the bad bear down finally in
one of the neighbors yards, and one of
the ladies remerked:"Oh, I couldn’t
shoot it anyway. Look at the pretty
face on it” It was a cub born this
spring and its cont was as glossy as
could be. It was allowed to go its
way and fine its mother if if could.
