The. Duluth Herald speaking of the wreck says; "It was a miraculous es- cape for all of thews and had it not been for the fact that the boat just happened to hit in such a way as to bring her port side up against a rock and thus afford a natural landing place for the members of the crew, some of them would have undoubtedly been drowned.

Going under the sub -head- ing "Obeying" regretted the fact that the tendency of the age to -day was to- wards disobeying, and stated that if it continued for two or three more gen- generations as it had, the meaning of the word would be entirely lost. In the home, in the,church and in nat- ional life, the apparent object seems to be "to evade the law." These remarks are undoubtly true and Mr.'»Going's warning is indeed timely. Obedience is one of the principal virtues and should not be lost. ° Mr. Ray L. Fanson, of Abernethy, Sask., who left here last springier the west, is again shaking hands with old friends in town, having arrived on Wednesday of last week.

A reactionary storm period will cen- ter on the 19th, 20th and 21st. At this time a. moderate reaction to higher temperature, with return of falling barometer, cloudiness and more rain and snow will be in order. The maxi- mum tendency to settled, midwinter cold will be natural through all this part of Jan., hence the storm periods will relax the natural cold only enough to allow precipitation mostly in the fo m of snow and sleet. Severe cold will immediately fellow in the wake of this reaction aryperiod,lasting through the 21st, 22nd and 23rd. Those who figure on the reactions to warmer at the storm periods, must also figure on encountering more or -less precipitat- ion, in the form of rain, sleet and snow at those periods, while those who figure on fair weather between the storm periods, mast also figure on the great increase of cold during those intervals. These facts well remembered and duly acted upon will prove at con- stantsafe•guard against inconvenience of loss and danger. our clubbing List.
