Bernard and his brother, Arthur, 9, were riding their bicycles and stopped at the crossing to permit a westbound train to pass. They then started across the tracks, failing to see an eastbound train approaching on another track. The locomotive hit the rear of Bernard's bicycle, throwing him 90 feet. He was dead when police Coached the scene. The Want Ada! Ninety percent of the damage done by lightning every year occurs in rural areas. Lightning accounts for nearly 400 deaths and 1,000 injuries each year, says John W. Matthews, executive secretary of the Illinois Rural Safety Council. , % This threat from the. skies also accounts for about 5 per* cent of the nation's fires and an annual property loss of $20,- 000,000. Matthews says that in most cases you can prevent ftgfftning damage, to your buildings and their contents by a system of air terminals and grounded conductors. Proper grounding is often neglected, since it is hidden and most easily overlooked. Every fastener or connector is important in the system because the performance of the entire circuit is determined by its weakest link. Be sure that your system is properly installed and maintained. Seek protection in buildings protected with, lightning rods wenever you can during electrical -storms, Matthews suggests. Stay away from open windows or doors and fireplaces, stoves, pipes and other metal objects. If you have *to stay outdoors, keep away from small sheds or shelters in exposed locations, isolated trees, wire fenced, farm DB. HENRY FREUND OPTOMETRIST Ai 136 S.

Pepping quality is determined by increase in volume when the corn is popped. B. L. Weaver, who has been in charge of the work, reports that average popping volume was 'twenty-two in 1939. Last year it was thirty-eight. In 1939 only five ears increased in volume as much as. thirty times when popped. In last year's tests only three ears had a popping volwfte of less than thirty. ; Last year two ear# in the test popped at forty-four times the unpopped volume. Twenty years ago, according to Weaver, a variety of popcorn was considered good if it increased its volume twenty times when popped. x All com tested over the four- ICE CREAM There's A Difference" Try II FLAVORS BUY IT AT . . .
