U. 5. Dentist Help

BERLIN, Aug. 13. (P)-Three Am erican dentists recently held a series of conferences in Berlin as part of a European tour for the purpose of studying the stomatological move ment in Europe and organizing an international congress to be held in Paris in 1927.

 One feature of the visit was the examinat ton of the teeth of the lar gest elephant in the Berlin zoo. This beast, formerly one of the most trac- table in the menagerie, had proven so vicious during recent weeks that the Zoo authorities were contemplating shooting it. However, the animals life may be spared, for the Ameri- can specialists agreed, with the German dentists that dental oper ation would restore the elephant U noraml behavior. It was decided to perform the operation in the near future.

Bear Struck By Car
 Reuiues and Battles

YAKIMA, Wn., Aug. 13. P)-Big game hunting by automobile is not so good, l.. D. Gaines, driver of an oil truck, is convinced, after an en- counter he had with a black bear, while on the Rimrock road, in the Cascade Mountains, east of here, re- gently.
 When first seen, the animal was loping along the highway ahead of him, Gaines related. Speeding up his machine, he forced the creature toward the rocks at one edge of the road. Suddenly turning, the bear sprang onto the hood of the truck, but skidded off, fell under the wheels and lay still.
 To take home proof of his prow- ess, Gaines returned and grasped the bear by an ear. The truck mas sage however, had not killed, only dazed him, and the animal sprang up with an angry "Woof!"
 At this point Gaines decided to allow the bear his life and liberty, and sped back to his machine with out dignity and only part of his trousers. The bear disappeared up a canyon.
