:From The News -Record, Jan. 16th,
\18[95:
The editor of this paper returns
'thanks to Mir, J. T. Marland for the

some time, and the sooner the bet-

than Clinton, except for a few days

SURPRISING STATISTICS
For a few years it looked as if the

farm, but due t, the fact :that the,
farmer cannot, produce 'gasoline and
he can grow hay and oats, the depree.

a large extent. It is surprising to
note, however, that compared with
1933, the number of horses in Canada,
declined in. 1934. Nova Scotia alone
being the only province showing a
slight increase. Statistics* show an-
other surprising fact, that except in

REMAINS CARRIED HOME BY
OCEAN WAVES
There have been some strange hap-
penings which have . been recorded'
from time to time and one such had:•
to do with the hurricane which re
suited in the Johnstown flood where
3,000 persons were drowned, and the
material loss placed at $20,000,000.
The incidents were 2,000 miles apart,
taking in Galveston, Texas, at one
end of the narrative and Prince Is -
ward Island, in the Gulf of St. Law-
rence, at the other.
On September 8, 190,, a West In-
dies hurricane commenced which blew
steadily for eighteen hours and
reached a velocity of at least 135
miles per hour. The waters of the
Gulf of Mexico rose in enormous;
waves that swept across Galveston,
Texas, and resulted in the worst cat-
aclysm in the history of the United:
States, included in which was the
Johnstown flood. Lying peacefully
in the cemetery et Galveston were
the mortal remains of an expatriated
Prince Edward Islander. The surg-
ing waves forced the coffin from its
grave, washed it out to sea .and;
caught in the Gulf Stream, was car-
ried to the shores of Prince Edward.'

THE NUDIST CRAZE
A farmer, working on a small hold-
ing in Australia, was seen ,by `his
neighbors clad only in a waistcoat.
Their shocked protests brought then[
no satisfaction, and they enlisted the
aid of the police. "Interviewed by
the law; the farmer warmly asserted
that he would' dress as heliked ore
his own property and that the neigh -
bon must look the other way.Bag-
led but inquisitive, the law said: "Butt
why wear a Awaistcoat, anyway " Thel
answer .was crushing: "Well, I must;
have somewhere to keep me pipe ate
matches!"
