A ray of hope is afforded by the records of the year 1878 to those who fear storms and floods around Lake Ontario next summer, ‘These records show that the high water for that season, 67 years ago, was in December, something that bas only happened twice in history. On December 14, 1878, the lake level stood at 247.08 feet.

Should the year 1946, now regarded with appreâ€" hension by those prejudicially afâ€" fected by high water Lake Ontario, follow the example of the year 1879, after conditions late in 1878 that came nearest to providing a parallel for present extraordinary conditions, the flood levels of 1943 will not be exceeded nor equalled.
