(Written by Fred Taylor, Age 12) Senior IV Class A STORM In the wilds of Northern Ontario lived John Millar, with his wife and two children. His home was a log cabin hewn out of the forest surround- ing the little farm. One day when he was at the near- est village getting provisions an adâ€" venture befell his wife. The town was about twenty-five miles away and to accomplish the trip it took two or three days. During this time his wife had to milk the cow, feed the horses and chickens. The day was sultry. and cloudy, and the east wind whistled through the trees. John had risen early and ten- ded to the stock, while his wife preâ€" pared the breakfast. She also made him a lunch as he did not expect to reach the little town before noon. A- bout an hour or two had passed since the man had gone forth into the for- est when it started to rain. How it did pour! Peal after peal of thunder echoed and re-echoed through the vast ‘forest. The woman shuddered as she ‘thought of her husband out there in the darkness; for although it was morning the dark clouds that inter- cepted the sun and clad the earth in darkness. Giant trees, monarchs of the forest, gave up the struggle and crashed to the ground near the threshold of the cabin. Lightning rent the skies and ‘lit up the forest so that every minute ‘leaf could be seen. Now the storm wgs nearing its end and the pair looked out on the forest which had a little while ago been standing of ruins.

PlCH‘a'GND HILL, ONTARIO Jntario Suppe!l and entertainment in con- nection with the St. Andrew’s church here held on Tuesday evening was a decided success. A splendid fowl supper was served in the Masonic Hall afterwhich a large crowd was enter- tained to a delightful programme in the Community Hall by Ye Olde Tyme Village Quartette assisted by Miss Pearl Carter, Elocutionist. The pro- ceeds for the evening amounted to $435 and the thankâ€"offering collection Living in the great cities may have its advantages but just now when the season of Hot Fowl Suppers is on,the argument is all in favor of the Coun- try.
