When they were coming into the village on Brook street just east of the railway crossing. they met a Ford car driven by Russel Neil. who was on his way to Owen Sound, accompanied by Clif- ford Wark.

Since parliament proroged early last summer, Miss Macphail has been con- stantly busy. Returning from Europe only a month ago, after attending several conventions. including sessions of the League of Nations at Geneva. she immediately plunged into the On- tario election campaign and at its con- clusion left for the west where she intended a four-weeks’ speaking tour.

Miss Agnes Macphail, M.P., intends returning to her home at Cey- lon, Ont.. as soon as she is able.

On the way out of the bush Muc- Dougan stumbled, his gun being dis- charged. MacDougall was walking dir- ectly behind Lane and the charge of the shotgun entered the unfortunate man’s back. He died in about 10 min- utes, the body being taken to the home of his father, George Lane, whose farm is directly across the road from that of hi; son. and his nephew, Elwood MacDougall, of Toronto, who was visiting him. About 11 o’clock they decided to go in for Thanksgiving dinner, all of the party having been invited to the- home of Lane's father for the meal. ._ u.“ umsc, 00, was accident-ally killed shortly before noon Monday on his farm in Egremont Township in a hunting accident. \ more, went rabbit hunting early- in the morning with several of his brother: TIMI-(Mn: Day saw a non. o: Gown Lune.

Andthebestofthsstoryisthntitis absolutely true. Now that it is 311 over It is quite evident that the old she bear had deserted the cubs and this was the thing of which the hunters were not sure. Had she been in the den there would have been no end of ex- citement and in case she did happen to turn up the hunters lost no time in getting back to camp. Returning next day the animals were brought in and at‘ least one of them will arrive in Dur- ham this Wednesday evening. As Mr. i It was while “cruising” over the com- pany's timber limits that Messrs. Gray land Gagnon. the former in charge of Ilumbering operations at the camp and l the latter managing director of the fac- itory here. and accompanied by one of 'the bushmén, discovered what looked like a bear's den. It was. There were three of them all cubs it was afterwards learned. but this was not known when the hunt was on. The men had no fire- arms with them with the exception of Mr. Gray's “sometime" gun. That is. ' sometimes it went off . sometimes it did- [n’t. Approaching the den the party were confronted by the first beat and open- ed fire. Bill Gray held the gun but it. refused to spring into action. After a couple more tries one of the cartridges did go off and accounted for Bear No. 1. Immediately afterwards it was dis- covered that there was another one in the den and with Mr. Gagnon in charge Iof the artillery the action was on again. {After considerable manipulation the l gun behaved like an oldtimer and Bruin; No. 2 was disposed of. Looking into the* den what was the surprise of the party to learn that either they had not killed the first animals dead enough or there was still another occupant. Not trusting the gun too much they called to their fellow woodsman to lend them his axe that they might, Horatius-like, turn back the thundering horde that threatened their very existence. The woodsman demurred. “Lend you my axe? Nothing doing. You might break! the handle.” And that was that. Noth- ing to it but take a chance with the old pea-shooter again. After several at- tempts the deed waes done and all thre bear cubs. about half grown, were hora dc combat. Mr. Gagnon spent last week in the Durham Furniture Company’s camp at Porterville in Hastings County where everything is pretty nearly as it was 50 years ago and if one cares to wander through the bush he will find that the wolves howl and the bears prowl in their native state much as they did in the days of Brebeof and Lalemont. To the dwellers in the more settled regions of the province a night in the bush up in that country would prove one of thrills and. chills. Sault Ste. Marie seems to have had the advantage of fancy wild animal stories for the past couple of years but it remained for two Durhamltes to stage a hunt last week which, if not the equal of the Sault wolf and moose stories still lends color to the idea'that civilization has not destroyed all the wild animal life in older Ontario.

SCHUBERT CHORAL SOCIETY ANNOUNCEMENT The Thanksgiving dance of the 1.0. BE. in the Town Hall Monday evening was well patronized. The music was supplied by a Walkerton orchestra. The receipts were considerably over $100. Mr. Dan Wade of Bentinck was in our office the» beginning of the week and showed us a b3; Northern Spy ap- ple he selected from his crop grown this year. The apple measured 12 by 11 in- ches and weighed ten ounces and three quarters. This is not a record by any means but this season when the apples are said to be plentiful though small, it is quite a good sample. Mr. Wade says he has plenty of Spys of approximately this size but admits that in selecting the one he brought in to town he did not pick the smallest of the lot.
