The loud crash of thunder Satur-

darkness for about half an hour.
This amusing incident is told by a
lady who recently acquired a. new
radio. She had lust smut unite a.
while getting a. distant station and
succeeded when the crash came.
It was some time before she was
convinced that she had not blown the
house up.

64 per cent of the children of the
Rowaytor. school are drinking min:

It is hoped that a larger percentage
will take advantage of this oppor-
