He ' looked around town for some person lq accompany him in the car to do the shooting, but everybody still seemed to be in the land of dreams (I know the writer of this was) so Harry took his car and gun and departed alone for the fray.’ He had not gone far when he spotted a large timber wolf so he made for the bigger and better priced game. Catching up to it going at thirty-five miles an hour he stecred with one hand and shot with the other. After a real good chase and his trusty gun get. ting hot at the barrel he mans aged to get a shot home in true form and was a proud man when he came ‘back to town with one weighing 150 pounds.
