country What interest Alma students would attach to an
xchange between college the south west
Such interchange generally adopted would promote saner
views on the great questions of the day. and develop
understanding and friendly feeling between the
north and the south, the east and the west

In speaking Of the great number Of
deer aud elk in this section in an early
day the old timer said that he saw q
bunch OF four elk one day on the ridge
between Little North Fork and GoOley's
Spring creek, and some two or three
miles from the river. Three OF them
were large bull elks and each one car
ried big set OF horns. "They were
running when saw them, but had
been lying down. The noise l made
in walking had scared them up. l had
my CUR with me but the elk disap-
peared over the hill toward Gooley's
Spring creek too quick for me to get
shot at one Of them" "The prettiest
sight ever observed In the forest" :"
continued MIR. Ford, twas when | was
l. years old, or in 1870. was hunting
one day in the hills near the head OF
Gooley's Spring creek, and while was
going up prairie hollow l met 100
deer This is no guess work, for there
was that many according to actual
count On another occasion, or in
lS4S, while was hunting on the west
side OF Little North Fork, below the
mouth of Bratton's Spring creek, l
noticed an eagle sailing circle near
the ground, Believing it was going to
pounce on something, l crept up near

down and struck the deer on it's back
and sank its strong, sharp claws deep
in the flesh. The little deer was tax.

around lively to rid itself OF its tor

deer's strength was apparently OK

me to aim and shoot it. You say why
