Journal of last week say: "Last week
at a aching :t few miles out of town
the teat•her:asked the class what the
town of Eve ,i was noted for, at once
a IM)y'a lisand went up with that eager
tontidence which knowledge always
gives, and at the teachers Well, Dry
boy? r•eplieel, Floor. The answer ex.
petted was salt, hut this boy was evi-
dently better informed than his teach-
er. While the teacher's expected
answer would have been correct a few
years sago, to -day flour is certainly
doing more to make Exeter famous
than salt, and we think it high time
that all teachers should profit by this
buy's intelligence and teach that it is
Sour and not salt that takes first place
in Exeter's indu..tiics."

Hicks Forecasts tor May
Centering on the 12th, 13th and 14th,
reactionary storm conditions will re-
appear and make their regular, pro.
gt•essive transition from West to Fleet
across the country. These disturb-
ances will culminate in many thunder
and rain storms on and touching the
14th, following which, the barometer
will rise, winds will shift to the West
and North, with change to much cool-
er weather. The next storm pet•iod
will centre on the 17th, covering the
10th to the 20th. This period will cul-
minate on the 17th, 18th and 19th in
falling barometer, much higher tem-
perature, and another cycle of daily
rain, thunder and wind stomas. This
period lies at the centre of the May
perturbations, growing out of the
focalized molar, especially in regions
moat commonly visited by violent,
tornadic storms. Earthquake shivers
