At this time, the speckles weigh â€" approximately 4,000 to the pound and are transferred to rearing troughs where they have a larger area to grow. Since trout are, perhaps, the prize sought by most expert anglers, let‘s sée how speckled (brook) and lake trout are raisâ€" ed at Petawawa, one of the smaller of eight trout rearing stations â€" in ~ Ontario.

But in the meantime the wealth and glamour of the Egypâ€" tian palace was left behind, and there remained only the endless dreary wilderness, and the wind blown desert dust in his teeth. The books of Egyptian learning in his hands were replaced . by the monotony of the shepherd crook, but Moses kept his eyes upon God and endured. Jesus Christ knew all about endurance for it was ‘for the be the premier of his people, had to spend 40 years in a bleak wilderness before he was allowâ€" ed to lead his people out of their cruel cireumstances. In all probâ€" ability his sleep was disturbed with dreams of the cries of his people, reeling beneath the whip of the tyrant. His heart was stretched into one taut longing for them, but, despite the forty long years, he did not throw in the sponge and give up, but was ready and waiting when God called him to take his place at the head of his neonle But there is plenty of room for the quality of endurance in the realm of our lives that opâ€" erates on the level of the unâ€" seenâ€"the spiritual. We are all called to endure in one form or another.

This expedient was not necessary because the Comâ€" pany maintains standby power at all the power comâ€" mission‘s generating and transformer locations, area ofâ€" fices and switching centres, This reserve power went into use immediately to provide the communications w sary for Ontario Hydro to restore regular power. And course, once the regular power was restored, it took over from the batteries to "feed" the telephone system just as it usually does, 24 hours a day. The interdependâ€" ence of power and communications utilities was shown very clearly. I would like to take this opportunity to wish all our readers a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. With generating | stations, transformers, switching systems and control centres located tens and even hunâ€" dreds of miles apart, you can well imagine the physical impossibility of getting all the units to work together in harmony without being able to communicate from one to another. If telephone service had broken down as well, who knows how many days or weeks it might have taken‘ to coâ€"ordinate the restoral of electric power? It wouid probably have been necessary to resort to radio communications, but even this would have been extremely difficult: without the telephone. For example, how yould you getout the directives to set up radio systems??? This was certainly important in averting uncertainty and panic and with family members able to keep in touch, turned the blackout into an adventure for many. Yel, perhaps even more important was the role the telephone played in helping the power companies restore their service. Recently in this column I explained how it is that the telephone continues to work in the event of a power failure â€" that our exchanges all have reserve power in case of emergency. I was of course thinking of a limitâ€" ed, local failure, and now at all of the power failure last month from southern Ontario to the Atlantic seaboard. Yet the result, as far as telephone service was concerned, was the same â€" all Bell exchanges where the power cutoff occurred immediately switched to their standby power, and telephones kept on working.
