TO*UEDINi)1KlUAIR MEN ESCAPE DEATH AS NEW SILO FALLS Newcastle Men Narrowly Escape Death When J. T. flrown's Silo Cracks Open With OnIy One Load To Go A klnd of catastrophe occurred on Mr. J. T. Brown's new faim west of Newcastle on Monday af- ternoon, September 25, when the new eoncrete block silo, just com- pleted last week, burst and col- lapsed just when it was about filled with corn ta the top, with only two loads left to put in. W. J. S. Rickard, Kier Lamb and Aithur Bell were in the silo tramping and could be seen well above the wails, as the silo had flot been roofed, when it began to crack from top to bottom with the pressure; Senstag their dan- ger they callcd for a ladder, but before anything could be done the whole thing, a silo 13 feet in diameter and 35 feet high, fiiled with corn, came down with a crash. As luck would have it the top feil to the south towaid the, bain roof depositing the three men on the roof. Here they were in a precarious position as the loose corn was fast wldening out at the ground and going down from under them. But the men on the ground put a long pole Up to the eave of thc barn and on this the thice slid to earth safely. Mr. Lamb was the last down and none too soon for the big pile of corn had gone a long way down now leaving a rutaed pile of concrete blocks on which he would cer. tainly have failen. The crashing noise made by the falling silo frightened Garnet Rickard's team whicli le had lef t standing while lie was rushing to hclp and they ran away. How- ever, they circled aiound ta the bain where they were stopped and no damage was done in this respect. The problem of what to do with ail this heap of cut coin, in order to save it is a serious onc and Mi. Brown rnay have it al trucked up ta the Mis.

A. Rumgate, To- ronto, sales manager of Bowman- ville Foundry Co. and an engineer by profession, presentcd an un- usual discourse entitled "One Horse Power." Throughaut all ages, the Sun has been an abject of wonder, veneration and study, statcd the speaker. In mytholagy, it was a god and in many ancient religions was the centre of worship. It has been looked upon by savage and sage alike as the source of cre- ative force, the light of the world and the great benefactor of man- kind. Modemn science, with its pow- erful telescopes, accurate record- ing machines, liglit fractuiing in- struments, and accumulated knowledge has but confirmed many of these beliefs and stated as concrete fact, what the ancients dimly envisio.ned. Under God's creative wiil and at His behest, the sun is thc source of practically all energy, life, growth, cohor, liglit and heat on this phanet, he continued. And when and if thc sun ceases ta shtae, this earth, as wc know it, will ceuse ta exist. Even the keenest scicntific minds have no knowledge of how thîs greut Orb was ceted fiai how it shail perish. They do not know why it has shone for count- hcss centuries without apparent diminution of power. Compared with the sun, aur earth is vcry smuil indecd, and this udded ta Uic great space which sepamates thcm, causes the eurth to reccive a very smalh fraction of the total light and en- crgy it radiatcs.

Dear Statesman, We aie very rudely shaken up here and 1 find it difficult ta write any orderly uccount of the hap- pentags affccting moat of us. We ftad aurselves tatally blackened out at niglit, and during the day have ta seek shelter just whcrc we can get it as soan as thc sir- ens praclaim that wai planes aie in Uic offing. When we get ta earth and dayliglit again, wc rush ta Uic neaiest restaurant for a meal - there even, it is too dark ta write - and wc put oui paper and pens away agata, hoptag that another day - a brigliter outIook - will present itsclf. But day foi- lows day and more and more we feel Uic, fetters tightcning round us - everytltag ih tense - nerves are awry - homes diaarganizcd -is it wai? September 3rd. Wail I stroil past Uic theatie - "Clos- cd" - outside is a littie gioup ai stranded aitists, bags in hand - girls in silk, with twenty-fivc guineas on their bachis and noth- tag in their packets. Too bad - but ts is war! We stroil agamn - clidien, mathers - and more childien hangtag on ta skirts, gas mask boxes dangling: round Uic necks even of babies - sandbugs everywlere - even school lads and girls assisting ta Uic filling processes - all banhis protectcd fram pavement ta roofs - a post- man an a bicycle, lis "tin hat" warn on top of lis cap - a police- man wavtag trafilec oser ta Uic curb to admit of some anti-air- crai t men ta put up a tripod for a machine gun - mare saldiers . 1
