This 50's flashback reminds us the days when comic books were printed and handed out to remind us of the constant fear we were supposed to feel.

Dateline: Milltown, Wisconsin, where the local Fire Department and Dept of Natural Resources had to be called in to rescue a bear from a hollow tree.

A kindness to animals is always repaid!

Just because I miss this kind of phone hanging on the kitchen wall!
