I was engaged then setting rabbit shares. I remember I snared about 140 in a wood on the outskirts of the village and within 100 years of the Episcopal Church. rm- several mornings I had heard scratching near a. huge pine tree that had blown out at the root. anti on one occasion I saw lingo tracks in the snow. I mentioned this to father who said it was orilv a dog's tracks but I had an idea, although but a boy of 14 years. that such large claw marks oouid not bu made by an ordinary scratches.

We soon reached tivi wood again and waited for the old man to come up. We hadn't long to wait, he soon ar- rived and at oncc proceeded. to ax- amine the spot we pointed out ax the place the‘ old gray hairs stood on an end and he sang out, "Bears by thunder, bring me the guns." We obeyed. Taking the gun he walked fearlessly to the mouth of tin: d-en and fired. Not a. sound could be heard within. he than grabbed the axe and cut away the limbs and brush and peeping in could see the old bear sitting up on i161‘ irauliches.

I at once crawled to where the snow. Nothing could b2 seen but a. pair oi l4 inch mudscows above the saplings. The two cubs were then gone, one of them wound- ed. After extricating “Samager" from his perilous position, the old hunter cautioned us not to say there was mom than one bear and we would now take the dead one home and return in the momirg. get on the track of the other two and kill tlTm also.

Nevertheless, true to his constitu- tional principles, the King gave the new Premier, Mr. Lloyd George, the fullest possible assistanm in every way. Mr. Lloyd George was more of a “showman" if the term may be used, than the academic Asquith, and under the Georgian Premier- ship the King's public duties great- ly increased. i Munition-making was how e vit- ally essential national industry but unfortunately thousands of the workers. especially in the North and in Scotland, were always in a state of chronic unmet owing to griev- ances regarding sanctioned and dispatched. but by this time nothing could slop the inevitable conflict. Messages from all parts of the country and the world were now pouring into Buckingham Prisca. The King of the Beizians tele- grsplifd personally to the King, pleading for the diplomatic inter- vention of Great Brlhin to safe- guard the neutrality of Belgium. while President Poincare of France yes even bolder and begged outrght fur British aid and support with- out delay. 1b the letter appeal l-lls Majesty answered that ills Govem- liliilt W515 considering every aspect of the situation. some years aiterwariis the King confided to Poincare in Paris that he was obliged to send this non- committal reply as the Government Ils divided at the time. hat the Eng added.

"What do you want with a big Navy?" he once directly asked his cousin the Kai-war, who gave the characteristic answer that it was God's will that Germany should be t great naval power. "if that was the case. i-ie ought lo have made your cmmtry an is- land," was the King's dry rejoind- er. end for once the volatile Kaiser was nonplussed. when the invasion of Belgium became an actual fact, Britain's in- tervention in the great struggfe was no longer in doubt. and the 4th of August saw Britain at war. The long-anticipated imrcpean conflag- celly fanned by agitators and the tiny anti-War party. It was chiefly with e. view to counteract this dis- turbing state of affairs that the King began his extensive tours of tlin munition areas. Efforts to stop him commencing them were made by one or two influential people who professed to fear danger to the King's life, but His Majesty was adamant. "I shall ser- things for myself." declared the King before setting out on his first "munitlon four" and he did. Practically every munitlon centre in the country was visited by the King during the War years and nverywhere he went his re"ep- tioh from the workers was one of the greatest enthusiasm. At Har- row hundreds of girls threw rose- icaves in front of him as he walk- ed down their cheering ranks, and one dar young woman even snatched t e white carnation from the King's buttonhole.

No house- hold kept the food regulations so strictly as the fwyal one. waste o! every kind was rigorously prevent- cd and-during the entire ‘War the King and Queen lived on very plain and frugal fare. Alcoholic drlniu of any description were banned from the King's table and the only time l-iis Majesty tc-k s little stimulant was during his vis- its to the Front. Never for one moment did the King waver in his belief in viti- mata victory or doubt that the War must be pursund to the bitter end." but he was never violently or blind- ly anti-German. The campaign in- discriminately carried on against all aliens did not commend itself to the King. "If they are going to ill-treat and lock up everyone with a Ger- man name," he said ones to a Cabinet minister, "I'm in danger myself." The omelal change announced in June i017, that the British Royal i-iouse of Bare Occurs-cloths. was in future to be designated as the House of Windsor, greatly pleased the country, as did the abandon- ment of all German titles held by British subjects. Royal or otherwise it was whispered at ihn tlm" that one of‘ two of the King's relatives with Victorian traditions strongly opposed the change. but Majesty has never regretted his decision. The most English monarch sinus the Stuarts is a fa: happier man lmday with a British name than he ever was with his German one. "My grandmother. I am certain. would never have thought of some it." the King remarked at the time of the change, "and my inlhei‘ might have thought of it, but he svoiild never have dcme it. l have long: lbw-glut of it and have done it at llet and I am well pleased" No account of the King's war- time activitlee would be complete without a reference to his many visits to the Front. and also to the Fleet. The King's natural desire to see his gallant men on active aer- vice was not looked upon with any favor by the authorities at first but the visits proved so successful in every way and hud such a tonic ef- fect on me lorcee that they were never afterwards discouraged. ‘lpart from the incident when the ‘(ins was thrown by a restim hora lent to him by sh- _pe lee nsle. an Majesty's visits to nee were in- variably memorabie experiences him. whether dining or chatting The King invariably looks his best in naval unlfonn and to see him walking up and down the deck of a ship is to realize that hc has 2n wcll-named- "the Sailor King." nce when he was stepping ashore at the Haves Pier near the Forth Bridge, his foot slipped and he was saved from falling into the water by the arm of an alert midshipmun. "That is the worst of getting old, my WY." remarked the King as he. thanked the lad with a smile. His Majesty sometimes stayed in an Edinburgh hotel during his vis- its to the Forth and one evening both he and Admiral Beatty walk- ed the whole length of the famous Princes Street in broad daylight without being recognized by any- irne except one howl servant who passed them.- The German air-raids on Lon- don and the country greatly dis- tressed the King and he took an active interest in the plans for air defence and the protection of the civilian population. His indifference to his own safety during the raids used to alrm his entourage and he would never take shelter unles h‘! was first satisfied that every. body else was in comparative safety. It would be interesting to lcnow the exact numbers of visitors whom the King received during the four War years. It would certainly mach a great figure, and only a man of tremendous vitality could have en. dured it.

When "Samazer" came and saw how the brush and limbs of trees were placed at the root of the huge pine he at once came to the con- clusion it was a den of bears. In .thc meantime I had crept to a hole which afterwards proved to ‘s’: for the purpose of letting nir into the dcn and putting my ear to it was listening to a peculiar rustling inside. Judge my sin-prise when I felt the warm bmath of the old she bear on my cheek and heard the snapping of her jaws inside. “$831319?” who was close by heard the snapping and shouts. "What's that, Jim? Limbs ornckinl” “N0, by Judas." I replied, “but fox traps snappin." After this it was a. race for who would get hcme first. As I was ‘umplng from the tree I could hear ‘earful tramplng and stamphw, in ‘he den which fairly made the earth tremble, coming from the old bear to frighten us off. I have since learned they act very much if disturbed like an infuriat- ed ram befoe hr- charges his vic- tim.
