While tramping along the timber line of the Medicine Bow Moun- tains about. 40 miles northwest of Laramie, Wyo., recently, Fryxell was startled by a rush and crash sounding from a point about 100 yards up the slope he was ascending. In quick-suc- cession followed a series of deep- throated sounds. Running quickly to the edge of the timber line he saw a Woodchuck Battles Wolf Fiercely And Loses Only After Five-Foot Fall rolling mass of grayish fur, twisting and tumbling down the slope so fast that it was impossible to distinguish the two animals apparently locked in a death struggle. From time to time came a fow sound as if from a choking animal. The animals rolled until suddenly the locked pair rolled over a five-foot ledge and out of sight for a minute. Following quickly, a timber wolf was seen to jump out of the follage sud- denly, carrying the body of a large marmot in its jaws. The marmot was estimated to weigh about 15 pounds and had evidently put-up a game struggle against great odds. TOWN MAY INCORPORATE. College Park Citizens to Discuss Legislation Tonight.

We need just the outlet that religion af- fords.” Sometimes we speak of getting religion, as if it were something sepa- | rate from and extraneous to our life a sort of afterthought. The fact is that we do not so much get religion into us as we get religion out of us.
