Mr. George Reeson, farmer on Ross' Road, northwest of the city, is authority for the unique occur- rence. He had purchased a field of hay on the Grierson farm, just opposite the city limits, and on Monday afternoon he was engaged in drawing it to his own place. As he was returning with the next to the last load and having reached the bridge, which spans Oshawa Creek, north of the Golf Club, he was startled to see what at first appeared to be a grey mist ap- proaching up the road, seeing this was something out of the ordinary, he stopped his horses. In less than minute the "grey mist' turned out to be something not so gentle when it lifted the load of hay, wagon and all, with him and his son Gor- don with it, clear into the ditch at the south side of the road. Although Mr. Reeson suffered a slightly strained back, no damage was done and the little whirlwind has not heen seen or heard ot since. After getting the wagon back on the road, the hay was again piled on and taken to the barn without any further disturb ance, but enough strands of hay for a good sized dobbin's meal remain to tell the story of an unt usual occurrence in these parts.

Diam« ond hunters are satisfied if they ge one pound of diamonds out of twenty thousand pounds of clay. = Dr. Fraser rejoices that a very much larger proportion than that of the Africans who hear the Gospel nobly respond. But even if results were heartbreaking, he would stilt feel it an obligation to tell of Cals vary and proclaim the unsearchable love of God. Dr. Endicott recently returned from Jerusalem, Africa and other centres of missionary interest verw heartily thanked Dr. Fraser for hig inspiring address.
