TINY
FAWN
ELECTION
PROBLEM
A
tiny,
helpless
fawn,
found
!
motherless
on
the
highway
last
week
exerted
a
slight
influence
on
the
federal
election
machinery
in
Skeena
Riding
and
added
another
worry-line
on
the
countenance
of
Returning
Officer
T.
W.
Brown.
Less
than
a
week
old
and
re-f
quiring
constant
feeding
and
attention,
the
fawn
was
found
on
the
highway
east
of,
the
city
by
Mr.
and
Mrs.
Taylor
of
416
Eighth
Ave.
W.,
who
took
It
home
to
look
after
it.
The
infant
proved
very
appreciative,
making
friends
with
the
family
dog
and
kittens.
But
it
required
to
be
fed
from
a
bottle
every
three
hcurs
and
that
was
what
caused
the
hitch.
Mrs.
Taylor
had
agreed
to
act
as
noil
clerk
In
one

the
cuvi
slon
in
the
downtown
voting
station
which
would
have
neces
sitated
tier
being
away
from
home
all
during
election
day.
Torn
between
her
election
day
commitment
and
solicitude
for
her
four-legged
charge,
Mrs.
Taylor
leaned
in
the
direction
which
most
women
would
have
taken.
