The pastor introduced the "speaker of the house", his lovely wife, Evelyn, who told the group of their experiences during the very early years of their marriage.

Ozone Damage The stratosphere is the layer of air from 10 to 30 miles above the earth where the ozone is located. The ozone, earth's protective layer, is continuously formed by the action of sunlight on oxygen molecules Until lately, the ozone ' has been destroyed--at the same rate it was being formed--by other sun-triggered reactions in­ volving natural nitrogen com­ pounds that are formed in the stratosphere. Now, though, human activities are on the threshold of upsetting that balance by adding more ozone- destroying chemicals in nearly the amount of the natural rate.
