sight of his great shadow on the
moonlit grass. The last Of the Oregon
grizzlies had gone the way of all his
breed. ....
To Bruce and Linda, standing
breathless and awed In the snow
fiurries, his death imaged the passing
Of an old order-the last stand that
the forces of the wild had made
against conquering man. But there
was pathos in it, too. There was the
symbol of mighty breeds humbled and
destroyed.
But the pines were left. Those eter-
nal symbols of the wilderness-and
of powers beyond the wilderness
still stood straight and grand and i'm
passive above them. While these two
lived, at least, they would still keep
their watch over the wilderness, they
would still stand erect and brave to
the buffeting Of the storm and snow,
and in their shade dwelt strength and
peace.

wheeled, snarling, fighting monster,
with death for any living creature in
the blow of his forearm, and lunged
toward Simon again.
1t was the Killer at his grandest
Sinon had no chance to shoot his
rifle. In the instant that he would
raise it those great claws and fangs
would be upon him. He swung it as
a club, striking again and again
lodging the sledge-hammer blows and
springing aside in the second Of the
Killers lunges. He was fighting for
his life. and no eye could bemean that
effort.
Simon himself seemed exalted. and
for once it appeared that the grizzly
had found an opponent worthy Of his
might. They were Of one kind, and
they seemed to understand each other.
The lust and passion and fury of bat.
tie were upon them both.
The scene harked back to the young
days of the. world, when man and
beast battled for dominance. Nothing
had changed. The forest stood grave
and silent, just the same. The ele-
ments warred against them from the
clOuds-that ancient persecution Of
which the wolf pack sings on the
ridge at night, that endless strife that
has made of existence a travail and a
scourge. Man and beast and storm
those three great foes were arrayed
the same as ever. Time swung back
ward thousand-thousand years.
The snow seemed to come from all
directions in great clouds and flurries
and streamers, and time after time

Bruce's eyes. At such times he could
tell how the fight was going by sound
alone-the snarls of the Killer, the
wild OathS of Simon, the impact Of
the descending rifle butt. Bruce gave
no thought of taking part. Both were
enemies; his own strength seemed
gone The cold deepened; Bruce
could feel it creeping into his blood,
hating its flow, threatening the spark
of life within him. The full light
of day had come out upon the land.
Bruce knew the wilderness now. All
It's primitive passions were in play, all
its mighty forces at grips. The storm
seemed to be trying to extinguish
these mortal lives jealous of their in
trusiOn, longing for the world it knew
before living things came to dwell
upon it, when its winds swept end
Tessly over an uninhabited earth, and
it's winter SHOWS lay trackless and its
rule was supreme. And beneath 1t,
blind to the knowledge that in union
alone lay strength to oppose its might
to oppose all those cruel forces that
make battle-ground of life-man and
beast fought their battle to the death.
Linda came stealing out of the snow
following the grizzly's trail-and
crept beside Bruce. She crouched be-
side him, and his arm went about her
as if to shield her. She had heard
the sounds Of the battle from afar; /;
she had thought that Bruce was the
contestant, and her terror had left a
deep pallor upon her face; yet now
she gazed upon that frightful conflict
with a strange and enduring calm.
Both she and Bruce knew that there
was but one sure conQueror, and that
was Death. If the Killer survived the
forest gods spared their lives, there
remained the blizzard. They could
conceive of no circumstances whereby
further effort would be of the least
avail.
The scene grew in fury. The last
burst Of strength was upon Simon !;
in another moment he would be ex-
hausted. The bear had suffered ter
rible punishment from the blows of
the rifle stock. He recoiled once more.
then lunged with unbelievable speed.
His huge paw, with all his might be-
HIND it, struck the weapon from ST.
mons hand.
It shot through the air seemingly
almost as fast as the bullets it had
often propelled from its muzzle, and
struck the trunk Of a tree. So hard
it came that the lock was shattered F;
they heard the ring of metal The
bear rocked forward once more and
struck again. And then all the sound
that was left was the eerie complaint

Simon lay still. The brave fight
was over. HIS trail had ended fitting

typical of himself But the bear did
