Marie, Ont.~Has the day of the Algoma wolf, that inter: esting beastic who has consistently "made" the front pages of newspap- ers all over the continent, 'ended? For lo, these many moons, Lupus Algomacnsis and his adventures has been followed with great interest by a4 host of readers, and hard-boiled editors have snickered as "the tele- graph wires told another tale. But now it seems that no more will famous wolf make his appearance on page one. The marching feet of civ- ilization have obliterated the tracks of this timber monster, and Algoma 18 hard set for something to take its place. Editor Was Author J. W. Curran, editor. of the Sault Ste Marie, Ont, Daily Star, is the man responsible for the creation and final obliteration of the great and only timber wolf-so fur as the Dis- trict of Algoma is concerned. Mr. Curran, from his summer re- treat at Spruce Lake, on the Algoma Central Railway, will be hard put to find a subject to take the place of Lupus. In his squarc-timbered cot- tage at the Lake, a cottage; by the way, which bears the cuphonious title of "Woodpecker's Hole," Mr, Cur- ran has often sat with pen in hand and tongue in cheek, musing over the way of the wild. It is from Woodpeckers Hole that these stories, often alarming but more often amus- ing, have originated, However, those days are gone for. ever, if a recent editorial which ap- peared in the Sault Star is to be be- lieved, The editorial bears the title: "This is how the Algoma Wolf Came Forward to Save Algoma--Being The I'rue Tale of how Canadian News- papers Smilingly Helped a Worthy National Cause." The Olden Days There was a time when the news- papers just yawned when they heard of Algoma," Mr, Curran says. "They didn't know whether it was a brand of peas, a new issue of corn syrup or the largest area in New Ontario, Serious articles about iron and stec! and wonderful scenery were shoved aside to make room in their columns for missionary talks about the press ing need of red flannel petticoats for African Belles, Earnest talks about natural resources were as good copy as discourses of Trigonometry, "So Algoma hitched up its panta- loons, took a grip on itself, 'and said these lads needed enlightment under different conditions. Algoma was a great place, but it was no use puit- ir it just that way. There must be some way of getting the boys on the newspapers interested. How, ana what to do? The trouble scemed to be a case of good space going to waste in Canadian papers, and Al. goma's case not being interested enough to pass the censor, "Ha," said Algoma, "We'll give them something a little out of the ordinary. A gold mine with a wolf mixed in the story, and iron fine that exudes watures hist®yy. Maybe it won't go, but it's worth trying. A Start It 'was, Mr, Curran admits well worth trying. "Right on the go-in, Joe Ball, of Michipicoten, killed a wolf with his bare hands, and inci- dentally, he was caretaker for a couple of gold mines, which fact was carefully mentioned. The story was as Joe told it, but many papers inti. mated rather guardedly that Joe was a romancer. And maybe he was. We're not taking sides, wishing to be fair to all parties, Anyway it went across 'Canada like a rash, one syn- dicate alone sending it to 13 dailies which gaye it scarcheads and asked for more. "The Algoma wolf then romped through every story--all measurably true--that then emanated from Al- goma. The Star had letters from editors, university professors, biolo- gists, bank clerks, policemen and a great galaxy of just plain ordinary people, "Algoma had to organize a wolf corps to bring in all the happenings that would stand retelling. To Al- goma's amazement, the Algoma wolf proved to be a willing performer. Every week there was a new episode that stood the test. x x And admir- able dictu, they sent money for the stuff. The Star boys didn't do any- thing much but chase wolf stories for a year and finally got so particular they wouldn't use a story unless it was a fact, But the stream continu- ed-- and for at least five years not arn has been accepted that had the slightest coloring. Fact, though some may sound fancy. Of course, Algoma is not to blame for the many imaginative stories written by many worthy outsiders, A Wolf or Twe "Of course, we have a wolf or two, and of course they do some damage. And of course they are exceedingly wary animals, and of course, too, and Algoma Central trainmen can't help catching a wolf running ajongaide his engine in a snow cut, because the animal can't get away. And it's per- fectly true that any two hounds can fick a brush wolf and further that a sheep's eyes shine in the reflected firelight just like a wolf's. And it is a fact that no wolf has ever tackled a human being in Algoma in the last 25 years, and isn't likely to do so in the next 1,000 years." Sir, Curran 'then points out that a wolf | since Lupus Algomaensis came to be- ing, Premier Ferguson of Ontario has announced a bounty on Canadian iron ore; Premier W. L.

At any rate, he says, "The Algoma wolf is an asset. 'He helped the dis- trict get the reputation which, caus. 4 wolked over Sinn Biggings lor minytes 4s the most thrilling the Star ever pried, As true, toy, dor we were right there beside Sam under wet blankets at Boundary Lake with 4 col November radii hitting the tent at 1.40 ann, and visions vs what might conceivably happen miles trom all help, and the animal with no judg ment at all, so tar as we could figure, As San petutantly whispered: "Lay quiet, it won't bite you," whicl was 4 tive word, It didn't, "But not a paper reprinted this more gruc'ng human experience Al gouia had ever heard of, "Algoma's deepest gratitude, in any case, to the newspapers," concludres Mr. Currans moving account of he great Algoma wolf pick, i + ------ " BROOKLIN Brooklin, Ont, June 24---Mr. and Mrs, Weir are visiting at Chat- ham, Mr, and Mrs, J, Thompson are visiting with friends in Illinois, Mr. and Mrs. Norman White and daughters, Margaret and Ruth are spending a week in Rochester and other points of the United States.
