PURSUIT
OF
DEER

WOLVES

BY
HOSPITAL
NURSES
Wolves
have
been
plentiful
on
this
Kalen
Island
during
the
winter
now
ending
and
particularly
has
this
been
so
in
the
vicinity
of
Miller
Bay
Hospital.
A
chase
of
a
deer
by
these
canine
marauders
was
witnessed
on
Sunday
morning
of
this
week
by
tyo
nurses
of
the
hospital
there
from
the
very
doors
of
the
Institution.
It
was
bright,
and
clear
in
the
early
morning
when
the
calm
was
broken
by
a
crash
In
the
woods
and
a
deer
leaped
into
the
clear,
pursued
by
a
large
black
wolf.
The
deer
bounded
past
the
very
doors
of
the
hospital
and
disappeared
In
the
forest
on
the
other
side
of
the
clearing.
The
wolf,
apparently
deterred'
from
Its
pursuit,
was
last
seen
by
the
nurses
sitting
and
watching
them.

Mr.
Bevin
said,
will
make
it
possible
to
curb
Germany
and
re-educate
her
in
the
ways
of
democracy.
"There
is
no
other
way
Mr.
Bevin
declared
but
he
added
that
Britain
"should
not
expect
too
much
from
us
at
Moscow
because
we
have
terrific
difficulties
to
face."
He
said
he
was
not
sure
that
Germany
knew
the
real
meaning
of
defeat
and
recogniz
ed
the
stupidity
of
war
as
an
ob

he

"after
