We correspondents sometimes grow weary of just writing names and what we consider insignificant little items and we wish we had an imaginative brain or the gift to wi-ite something worth while. Here is an incident which occurred quite recently, not so far away from here. A stranger was sitting in a hotel and picked up a local paper to pass away the time. Glancing through the list of corres- pondence his eye caught the name oi an old friend whom he had not seen for thirty-two years. In fact he had lost track of him. Enquiring of the landlord where this Proton Station was, and finding it was within easy reach,, he said that he was going t" visit his old friend.
