Len Gray's Pancho
.Now Rides Horse

Out in the Flathead valley of
Montana there's black bear that
likes to play cowboy.
He's Pancho, year-old bear
owned by Lenard Gray.
Through the ages horses and
bears have had cat and dog re-
lationship, but Pancho likes to
ride Indar, the Arabian stallion,
though he, doesn't like horses.
There's good reason, Gray con-
tinued. The stallion takes food
away from the cub and finds other
ways to tease him. The little bear
incidentally sucks his paw.
Gray keeps the horse and bear
in the same barn, though the bear
is tied up.
The Flathead animal trainer is
80 years old and works as a body
man at Carey Motor Co., Kalispell
He purchased Indar from Tom
Wilson, Hungry Horse, seven years
ago, and proceeded to teach him
all the tricks that make horse
seem almost human. Indar has ap-
peared at virtually all the fairs
rodeos and horse shows in the
Flathead. He rolls. over, counts
lays down, plays sick, and it seem.
that Gray and his horse can tall
to each other. Now the stallion
even tolerates bear in the saddle
Gray has appeared on TV with
his pets, and is presently getting
bookings for late spring and sum.

KALISPELL-Spring planting
activity in the Flathead is termed
"three weeks late" by County
Agent Walt Mauritson.
He added that the present spring
was the latest that he recalls in
the IL years he has lived in the
Flathead.
The cold soil results in unusually
slow seed termination. Mauritson
continued that actually there was
little damage so far, and that the
delay so far mostly affected the
start of truck gardens.
Cloudy weather with showers
including snow in the mountains
characterized the week. Browning
had about two inches OF new snow
on the ground for time Tuesday
and the cover was even heavier
toward Butte.

FAMOUS FABLES
BY E. E. EDGAR

NOISE-During the last years
Of his life, French novelist AL
phonse Daudet was in poor
health. He suffered from an in
trinity which made it painful
for him to write. Also. his nerves
were shot and noises made him
jump.
One day, when he was visiting
q fellow author. he noticed a
typewriter on the table.
I've been thinking Of buying
one Of these machines" said
Daudet. Perhaps 1t would make
writing easier for me. May I
borrow it for a few days?"
"Of course" said the other.
at should. as you say. be easier
on your fingers than a pen"
Daudet took the typewriter
home and tried it out. but re-
turned 1t in disgust.
Whats wrong?" asked the
other. Didn't it make writing
easier?"
Much easier" admitted Dau-
Diet. Il could scarcely feel a
twinge in my fingers"
Then why are you so dis
gusted with the machine?"
Il couldn't stand the bell at
the end of every line" cried
Daudet. 1T was driving me
mad!"

This was shown in petition

AS usual, ne gave hlmSel1 every
chance. He did not blindly count
on the heart suit breaking 3-3.
Without risk, he gave himself an
extra chance-and won an extra
trick.
This deal is another illustra-
ton of when not to take out all
of the opposing trumps. Mrs.
Keen opened the king of clubs,
noted the play of the encourag-
ing ten from her partner and
continued with the jack of the
suit. Mr.. Abel went up with mis-
ace and played a third club
which Mr.. Masters ruffed with
the five of spades.
He now took two rounds Of
spades. hoping they would break
"a. When Mrs. Keen showed out
on the second round, however. he
stopped leading trumps, leaving
the ten on the board.
Next he started the heart suit.
figuring that if the hearts broke
3-3, he would then pick up Mr..
Abers remaining trump and cash
this 18th heart. If the hearts
broke Az in the opponents
hands, there was still the chance
that the hand with the remain
ing trump also had the four
card heart length.
AS you see this latter alterna-
tive was the actual situation. so
Mr.. Masters found it possible to
ruff his fourth heart with dunn
my's ten of spades and thus
make five-odd.
If he had taken three rounds
Of trumps early, he would have
had to lose a heart trick to Mr..
Abel's ten. OF course it didn't
make too much difference on
this particular hand as the con-
tract was only for 10 tricks. But
sometimes this setup occurs
when a lot of points depend on
using the same technique Mr..
Masters used here.

bill of rights. These bills of rights have been patterned, to a considerable degree, on the Bill of Rights in the national Consti- tuition. Individual states have, of course, added other matters deem ed essential to their society.
 AS Alaska approaches the ques- ton of writing a Bill of Rights for it's own Constitutional, two con- alterations should be kept in mind: CD the issue of what matters shall be considered as fundamental enough to be incorporated into the Constitution as rights, and CD a realization that rights cannot exist without corresponding apprecia- tion on the part of the citizens as to their obligations.
 Constitutional Rights. Many rights, such as the right of speech, are guaranteed against govern mental interference by the na- tional Constitution. The proposed state government of Alaska could not infringe freedom of speech, even if there were no guarantee of free speech in the Alaska Con- stitution. The reason for this lies in the fact that the Supreme Court
