There were several dogs. but old Shep

attacked the bear with all his might
and main and succeeded in keeping
him away from the men. but not be-

throat, so bad that no one could save
him. though two physicians in. the
party worked with him until midnight

weighed about 500 pounds.

"He who helps child helps humanity

II is with this thought uppermost
that the men and women OF our city
have started this kindergarten. ow.
