M.ybe Papa Bear \(/as Risht

Once there were three bears, Papa Bear, and Mama Bear, and the Little Bear.

One day Papa Bear sat down in his big armchair to read. But he jumped right up and hollered "Ouch ! There's a tack in that chair !"

That made Mama Bear very curious, so, to make certain that what Papa Bear said was true, she sat down in the big armchair. She, likewise, jumped up and shouted"Ouch ! There IS a tack in that chair !"

And then Papa Bear looked at Mama Bear very hard, and said: "What have we got here? ONE OF THE DEAD END KIDS?''

Kindly credit my account for $2.00 and keep me in good standing. Having real winter here now-32 inches of snow since December 23. Thursday night we had 22 degrees below zero, and last night only 1O degrees below which seemed rather warm. Lumber business at a stand still but coal business good.
