RECENTLY.while on a trip out the Valdez-Fairbanks trail,
one of the members,of this Post, discovered some four or five
hundred yards in the distance something which resembled a BLACK
BEAR,; So the person in discussion became all excited,polished
up his Expert badge, brought his rifle to the Ready;-"Whizz -
Bang;-Blueyand the mysterious black bear let out a number of
yips and yaps.which proved to the excited person that it was noth

person,-but we all make mistakes* **, So cheer up«lH
