In MEMORIAM

In memory of my dear father,
Joseph Webster, who passed this
life January 18, 1858. We, his
surviving family, hereby dedi-
cate this poem, written by Paul
Lawrence Dunbar:
THE CHANGE HAS COME"
The change has come, and
father sleeps
Not sleeps, but wakes to
greater deeps,
Of wisdom, glory, truth and
light,
Than ever blessed his seek
ing sight.
In this low, long, lethargic
night,
Worn out with strife, which
men call life;
The change has come, and
who would say,
l would it were not come
today
What were the respite till
Tomorrow?
Postponement of a certain
sorrow.
From which each passing
day would borrow!
Let grief be dumb,
The change has come.

 It seemed for time that the men would not be able to budee the heavy animal from her ieF prison but after several hours work and much t8ggiHg she was dragged ashore and freed from the rope.
 The cow. legs numbed stiff from cold, refused to move. Williams approached and nudged her. The cow fafed up in anger, Hakala said, With hair standing straight out on her neck. Upon that evi- dence of life and spirit, the res- cue team left.
 Onleokers at nearby trailer court said the moose stood still for several hours. About dark. ev- idently thawed out enough to re- sume her normal existence, she nonehalantly ambled off on moose business stopping occasionally to munch a choice twig.
 As for the Fish and Wildlife such incidents are all in a days work.
