"No matter," said Theiben-Bal. "Ift was the best work wve got. It's quite good-a fine recîtal piece." "I like its pageantry, its cere- mmaia imagery," said Webber.

Dr. Adrien Kentrowýif.z, attend- ing surgeon, approached the con- trais of tbe amplfiers, paused a moment, and said quietiy ta Berg; "Get ready, youi're going ta stand up naow." The patient grasped a bar over bis bhead, provided ta gie hirmbalance, Dr. Kantrowitz furnied fie knobs, sending eiecf- ric impulses firougi the wires to the muscles. Red Berg stood up. He wes fie first parapiegic in hisfony ta stand fhrougb ectivity of bis own muscles. "If was kinda funny," fie red- bearded parapiegie says now.

Rere's one for- the record. On Suinday mnorning, October 15, we saw snow for the first time this season. It was veýry fine, neyer- theless it was snow. And that after a record bigb of 80 degrees earlier in thie week. But we stili haven't had aý killing frost. Last niight we tbought there wAould be one and at two o'clock in the marning 1 remembered a very -special beg-onia -,as stili out. So 1 got out of my niée warmn bed, îwent outside and broughft the plant in, It was aîreadyý potted but It is such a huge plant we wanted to leave it outside to the last minute. I don't, think 1 ever saw such a h-uge begonia - great, big leaves and stemis -- and it aIl grew from-r one small slip I planted last s-pring. Weli, I suppose everyýbody bas been in a mad rush just recent- ly. Doeýsn't matter bow long the good weatber lasts there are al- ways lest minute chores tO do when the weather changes.
