ANOTHER BEAR ENCOUNTER

George Wilson, an old farmer, was driving down the Brook Road early Saturday morning and spotted a yearling bear feeding under an apple tree. He stopped his pickup truck and went to take a closer look neglecting to close his driver's door. The small bear walked a circuitous route around George toward the road. Neither the radio nor engine noise frightened the young bear and she climbed right into the truck. George carefully got in and started to drive. The bear seemed to enjoy the motion of the truck.

George went directly to Constable Densmore's house and asked what he should do with the bear. The constable suggested he take her to a zoo. Four days later Constable Densmore saw George at the general store with the bear still in the truck. He asked George if he had taken the bear to a zoo. "I did," said the old farmer "and she liked it so much that now I'm taking her to Disneyland."
