Strange Animals After Huckleberries

What is reported as a mysterious
and unnamed varmint frightened a
crowd out of choice huckleberry
patch in the mountains south of Dallas
Sunday. Those who saw it said it was
of brown color, omitted sounds Of
rage not unlike that Of wild hog, and
made a noise with it's teeth that indi-
Gated it had molars of great size. None
of those who were scared away TAR
ried long enough to take a second
look at the monster. A later report
from a Dallas authority is to the ef-
feet that the mysterious animal was
nothing more than the man who had
located the aforesaid choice patch of
berries and who resorted tc deception
to scare out intruders. A gunny sack
over his head, two rocks rubbed to-
gether in his hands, and few piglike
groans, completed the illusion.
