Til n cm n naivr-r tin WITH LYNX IN STORY tuon tinned from pafe .) pose there never had been a lynx within 600 miles of that spot, but you touid not have made "Old sol" believe that just then. , The only thing he had to defend himself with was a heavy walkinc stick, one that he commonly ear ned around with him every dav. It was heavy and strong and suit- aoie lor killing a snake, or knock lng over a skunk or weasel and many a muskrat had fallen prey to mat efficient club. . But a, lynx was different uia sol did not know how much of . a blow It . would take to kill a lynx, nor how the wild crea ture could spring out of. the way of a club that might be hurled at it l He was sure he could see the animal move. i it turned its head, a bit, and seemed to shift as if to to spring at .him. get ready So he concluded that the safest place for him was the , fence. At least if the lynx came at him he could jump down on the, other siae and have a better chance to bring his walking stick into action if there should be a bit of delay CBCOMPm Busy Readers' Newspaper Water, Light & Power company's lines, ordered by the public service cqinmission, following1 engineers' reports that acids and refuse from theOresron-Pulp & Paper company's plant may have been contaminatihir board of health and the state, fisti, commission have been in vited to participate Jn .the hearing .to be held in' Salem on .-May.10:J-.-i: . .

He is cxpecicq iq arrive apout June So "Old Sol" quietly edged his way fb the fence a few rods from the lynx. ' He climbed up on it as quickly as possible. The lynx stood his ground. "Old Sol" ex pected It would get frightened and run away, but It did not. He sat there for some time watch ing. -He made up his 'mind It was the lynx's next move, but the wild beast did, not seem to think so. It just stood there looking at him. . Once in a while he was sure it moved a bit, but it would not go away. So he hurled his club with all his mitht. He hit it with an awful blow. . . He expected to hear a terrible howl and see the wild thing make off. but a strange thing happened It disappeared, silently and in stantly. Where it could have gone he could 'not tell. Bufit was gone, of that he was sure. So after wait ing a little, and with bis heart in his mouth, as we sometimes say, he went over very cautiously. When he got there he had to laugh. It was an old thistle stock. It had been covered with snow, and his' club knocked the snow off and there it stood, innocent enough, his club lying a few feet away. Whenever we wanted ' to have a laugh on "Old Sol" we had but to mention his lynx. CHARLES ALEXANDER WRITES COLLIE YARN (Continued from page 1.) that Bobbie did not travel by scent.) Shortly be fore Thanksgiving day he came to the city of Des Moines. And again on the long trek south and west , to Des Moines he had run with head down, dispirited, tan talised by something glamoring. glimmering, deep in the vastnesses of dog lore bequeathed to him by the stucdy shepherd dogs of old. Still he could not understand the glamor of it, catch the vision and know it for what it was, and the only relief he had from his inner voice was in running west." The map of his route from Wol- cott, Indiana, to Silverton, Oregon, traced by letters from people wtto recognized him in cities along the trail he made, have been carefully verified, as well as many of his ad ventures on his wanderings. The obstacles he overcame by sheer endurance and dog sense. how he outwitted dog-catchers In cities, dodged bridge-tenders, con tended with snow-storms, bliz zards, packs of wolves, and lived in. the ope, catching his own meat in crossing the desert states, like parts of Nebraska, Wyoming, Col orado, Idaho and eastern Oregon. make jjbe, .story a continual, mar- re -ok heroism, ana triumpn,. ana one of themost Inspiring , animal storleS-ever written. Mr.'-Alexander has been placed on the program - of the national convention of . the American Hu mane3" society, which meets at Portland, Oregon, in August, to tell the story of Bobbie. This book will be read wherever the English language is current speech, and will become as widely known as a humane record of ca nine performance, as the famous story ot "Black Beauty" is in the literature of the horse, no one can doubt.
