DYNAMITE EATING BEAR
MEETS SUDDEN DEATH

Complaint has been made that con-
siderable dynamite has recently
come up missing which was to be
used on the road between this place
and Winchester bay in blasting out
stumps. etc. Numerous bear signs
have also been seen near by where
the dynamite was kept until ready
for use, but no one thought about
bears eating the explosive, but it
seems as if they did and we're the
fellows whoswere getting away with
it.
Last Sunday morning bright and
early, Herb Butler and VIM. Boak.
who had been given the tip as to
whore Mrs Bear hid away during the
day, started out to capture bruin
dead or alive. Arriving at what is
known as the Decker Point farm,
two pups which they had taken along
for protection in case of a hand to
hand fight with the bear, started the
bear out of the brush. A general
fusiIlade from the high power rifles
followed. The bear being at quite a
distance, several shots were fired.
Suddenly during the excitement an
explosion was heard coming from
the direction of the bear. Going
to the point where the bear was seen
the hunters found the remains OF
the animal badly mutilated, and upon
investigation it was found that a
glancing ball from one Of the rifles
had struck the animal In the stom-
ach and caused the dynamite which
the bear had recently eaten TO ex-
plode, killing it instantly. 1t would
be a dangerous act for any bear
hunters to go into the woods near
the Winchester bay road and kick a
bear out of its nest just now

FOR ENGLISH IN SCHOOLS.
Michigan Governor Also Urges
Federal Prohibition Amendment.

LANSING, Mich. January 2-Early
ratification of the federal prohibition
amendment and enactment of a law
requiring that all courses in Michigan
schools be conducted in English up to
the eighth grade were urged upon the
legislature today by Gov. Albert e.
Sleeper. in his second inaugural ad-
dress to that body.
Concerning the states educational
system, he said:
Instead of encouraging the for
eigner who comes to our state to re-
tain his native language and tradi-
tons we should exert every influence
to impress upon him the high ideals
of American citizenship. No school
child in Michigan should receive his
educational training in any foreign
language"
