REV. A. H. BRAY TO PREACH
Questioned by Mr. Kennedy-Annual Meeting of N. T. Skipton as to what precautions they had taken, witness said that if there was a piece of iron projecting close to the high tension wire, they would not do anything, as the wire was heavy and would not swing much. During a typhoon, however. they inspected the wire to see if it was swinging much before taking any action. The high tension wire was alive from 6 pm. la GR.M. only. He did not know whether the owner of the flagpole had been warned of the high tension wire by the Company.
The hearing was then adjourned until 2.30 p.ni, on Tuesday, Septen- ber 21.

RITO pays for itself over and over again. in half the usual time and at a quarter the cost your man can make a permanent all-weatherproof job of those slatos, tiles, gutters, downspouts, skylights, etc., which should be repaired now, while the weather. is good.
RITO is a plastic roof repair · compound which grips insopar- |
