OF PEOPLE LIKE YOURSELF!
"The Furred Terror"
By FLOYD GIBBONS
Famous Headline Hunter

LJELLO EVERYBODY:
IL Orville E. Gibbs of Jackson Heights, N. Y, is today's
Distinguished Adventurer, and the tale he tells is one that
will make the hair creep up the back of your neck. It's a
yarn that reminds me of the gladiatorial arenas of Rome
where they used to throw Christians to the wolves and pit
men in deadly combat against Numidian lions and bears
from the German forests.
But it wa neither a lion o a wolf no a bear that brought this
package of thrills to Orvile Gibbs, and instead of a Roman arena, he
fought it out in the living room of his own house.
1 don't know how it was in Roman times, but nowadays adj
ventures, like Charity. almost always begin at home.
wild animals. He ran away a a boy to join a circus, started a IS a water
fedged trainer handling all sorts and species of wild beasts. From the
he was there he "a given several monkeys which he kept in cages in
taken care of by his father None of them ever gave any trouble.
Jack Was a Bright Monkey.
But there's always an exception. Orvile moved East, then went to
South America, bought another bunch of monkeys and shipped them
to his home in New Rochelle, N. Y. He and his wife started to train
the whole bunch, but one of them-Jack-was brighter than the others.
Orvile concentrated o him. He would bring him into the house and
have all sorts of fun with him. But OrviNes wife kept away from that
One evening Orvile brought Jack into the house. He had him
On his lap, playing with him in the usual manner when suddenly,
without warning, Jack emitted a ferocious screech and leaped for
Orvine's throat. And that was the beginning of a IS horrible a
battle as any Roman rem ever saw.
LAS he came for me" says Orvile, Il threw my right arm to ward
him off. Jacks teeth snapped shut, and he broke practically every bone

p. w. A. FUNDS ~

1t is possible that no more ap-
plications for grants and loans
will be approved by the Public
Works administration in Mon,
tana, Colorado, New Mexico and
wyoming, according to a report
from P.W.A. headquarters in
Washington, D. c. The PWA is
lust about out of funds the
report said, and the January l
deadline for beginning construc-
ton probably will prevent ad-
ditional projects from being
started this year.
Officials of the PWA said that
projects on the active file or
under consideration will be kept
on file 50 they can be acted on
further if the next congress pas
ses another lending program.
The PWA may have a small, I'M
certain amount of money avail
able from rescinded projects, it
was said.

Ray E. Cameron, state 4-H

tries must have had the ap-
proval of a county extension
agent or vocational agriculture
instructor to make certain that
the young feeder has complied
with all the rules and regula-
lions of the All and FLA org
aniZationS.
1t is also required that all
animals entered in the show
must have been owned by the
boy or girl making the entry as
follows: Steers, $50 days before
the show; sheep and swine, 80
days before the show. At the
time of exhibiting, each exhibit
or must have a complete set of
records of his entries and a
signed statement from the coun-
ty agent or vocational agricul-
ture instructor on the entry
blank stating that the exhibitor
has met all requirements of
ownership, record keeping and
registration.

work on Tuesday, November IS,

PROJECTS

PWA projects undertaken by
the state water conservation
board have not only sWelled
the value of Montana lands
but will create new wealth for
years to come, according to R.
A. Radford of Omaha, regional
director of PWA projects in
eight northwestern states.
Radford said many states
have concentrated on buildings
and other projects subject to
deterioration. He cOmpllmented
the water board on its program,
stating there is not one dud
among the boards storage or dl-
version projects" He added that
projects have increased land

1t Looked Bad for Orville.

II threw up my left arm. He crunched it at the wrist, piercing the
skin and breaking several bones. Then I leaped to my feet, just a S he
jumped at me again. I was dressed in riding clothes, and the
heavy boots stood me in good stead. I kicked at him savagely and
it stopped him for a moment, but he bit clear through the boots several
times"
That was just the start Of a terrible fracas-and a mighty bad start
for Orvile. There I was" he says, "cornered by a wild monkey. weigh
ing thirtytwo pounds-screeching horrby-and leaping from chair
to chair to table trying to get at me. Whenever he thought he had me
he leaped at my throat, and here I was, my hands useless. bleeding like
a stuck pig, and growing weaker every minute"
Orvines wife had u from the room. He shouted to her to pass him
his rifle and cautiously she broke a pane from n of the french doors
and pushed the weapon through. ITO my horror" says Orvile, Il could
pane to my wife telling her to cock it-an this time lodging several
savage rushes and leaps. Finally the gun came through, cooked. I
don't know to this day how I ever succeeded in aiming it and pulling the
trigger, but if I had placed the gun to his head and fired I couldn't
have made a more perfect shot-right between his eyes!"
He Shot the Maddened Beast.
Blood began to pour from the gaping hole in the monkeys
head. But still, to Orvile's horror, THE BEAST CAME ON
AGAIN AND AGAIN.! Frozen with terror he passed the gun out
again for his wife to cock. And again Orvile doesn't know how
lie ever managed to fire it. This time the bullet caught the ami
NAL right through the eye and down he went.
"And," says Orvile, down l went, tool"
"Orvles wife called the hospital The ambulance came, and the
orderies found him lying on the floor covered with blood. Orvine's own
doctor rushed to the hospital And" says Orvine, 'te didn't have his
the glasses. They gave m morphine and more morphine. By the
time the glasses did come the doc told m that 1 was so well doped up
that might as well 60 n the operating table without a n anesthetic"
Orvi1e told him to 60 ahead. 1t took them exactly one hour and a
half and fortyeight stitches to w up the holes that animal had made.
After that came Pasteur injections. His hands were reopened and the
bones reset. And now" he says, I'm back to work with a stiff right
thumb and a pair of hands and wrists that will be weak for some time
to come"
And nowadays, Orvile has a motto. No more monkeys!
