Montgomery, agricultural rep resentative for Huron County reports that the frost damage to fruit orch ards over the week-end was • not too extensive.

NIGHTLY Children under 12 yrj. admitted free! costs money Yes', Junior scored a bulls-eye all right *.. right on your pocketbook. You won’t be called on to replace it yourself, but as a citizen of Ontario and one of the owners of Hydro, you pay for the damage in the long run. Actually, the insulators themselves are comparatively inexpensive. But the damage that can result from a broken insulator can cause Serious power interruptions by cutting service op that line. Hospitals may be deprived of power at a critical moment. Machines • in factories may be stopped. Homes and farms may be affected, too. There is the added hazard of fire and if the wire falls to the ground, property and lives are endangered. When an insulator is smashed, a crew of men and a truck travel miles to locate and repair the damage ... and that costs money. Hydro appeals to you to help to prevent the deliberate or careless destruc tion of Hydro property . ♦.
