After all, I'd made it to the first
of June. That's not bad. Knowing
that some people suffer heart at-
tacks from mowing their lawns,
I didn't just rush at the thing
fool -hardily. I kind of studied
up.

First, I announced my intention.
This, as I knew it would, brought
a lot of advice from the Chief
Engineer at our place. While this
was being advanced, I had a beer,

Then I sent. the kids out to pick

ONLY "WOLVES" lsTOW1
One hundred years ago this
week, according to old news
files, an exking bear hunt
took place in Gaderich. truin
was discovered taking a lei-
surely stroll in daylight
through the town. After a
three-hour chase he was driven
to the lake where he was
followed by boats and finally
killed. Today, exactly a cen-
tury later, the only "wild life"
seen in Goderich are "wolves"
of the two -legged variety, who
usually blow into town in
packs from nearby cities. They
invariably head for the beach
in antiquated, loud -exhaust
"cars" but so far there have
been no reports ot than being
, driven into the lake and event-
ually exterminated. On second
thought, there has been real
wild life about. About a year
ago there was a deer in town
and wolves have been shot not
so long ago in Ashfield Town-
ship.
