Flesherton, August 3th, 1916. .\fter some three weeks of intense beat, Meaford was visited by a .sever* electric storm oo Sunday evening,accam- pauied by wind, hail, and a heavy down pour of rain. The rain was badly needed in this locality as the »raio and root crops were in need of moisture. The lightning was very severe at time8,and prior to the heavy rain, the barn of Mr. Percy Brooks, 9th line, St. Vincent, was struck by light- ning and burned to the ground, tog'ether with some Ho loads of hay, IJOO bushels of old grain, two calves and a number of | hens. A bull coufined in the building | was also badly burned but managed to break loose and find it* way to safety. The loss was partly covered by insurance. Li abs were also torn from trees and corn crops were, in many cases, ruined. Tba stor'n lasted aboat an hour and was the worst this seaaoQ.â€" Express.

Tbis UJy is Mrs. Ida .\dains, of Lsfroy. After i' the wir broke out and helpless English women and children were bsing murder' ed by (>erman bombs. Mrs Adams began wondering if some protection could t not be aUorded buildings from these mid- . air bombs. The more she thought of the 1 idea the more convinced she became that ' some means could be tbouirbl out. Finally her ideas took shape and in July of last year the idea was forwarded to the War Othce m London. In die time wora came from the War Otlice,two letters in all being received, one of them , signed personally by the late Lord Kitchener, the other wa^ from the Directorof Artillery . From these li-ilers she was informed that her invention was , one of the accepted plans out of 31,000 chat had been submi'ted. What the nature of the inv<)ntion or of its construction, Mrs. .\daiBS was not prepared to divulge : secrecy being de- manded by the la<perial authorities.
