The forepart of the eve- ning was spent in tobogganing on the near-by hilîs. Later the cold ,s and hungry girls were entertained ;t at the home of their teacher's mother-in-law, Mrs. C. G. Arm- strong.

Report says it was a surprise bl1a ck-o ut but with sensible people having the idea that some- 1thing went wrong with the hydro lines, it is altogether likely that such was the case. Surely no government would order a sur- Iprise black-out two nights in suc- cession. Perhaps someone can ex- 9 plain? Anyway, it caused a lot «o! trouble.
