Last weeks cold wave was powerful
reminder of January. Although the
weather forecast hopefully intimated
that we were to have it fair and
warmer" it gradually grew worse, until
on Saturday morning temperatures as
low as above zero were reported.

For a couple of days last week, the
Grand Trunk, like other Maine railroads,
reverted to the old plan, and ran its
trains by time card, without telegraphic

got along. But there was no trouble, as
the trains were able to keep pretty close
to their schedule, and no specials were
sent out.

Some of the published estimates of the
damage done by the storm contain the
statement that it may break some of the
small telephone companies. 1t may In
deed, but it seems to be the rule that
the smaller the company, the less the pro
portionate damage. Oxford County is
pretty well laced over with the tele-
phone lines of local companies, and all
of them are somewhat damaged; wires
are broken, and in this village fuses
were burned out by crossing the light
wires. But as the poles of most OF these
small companies carry only from one TO
four wires, there was not on most oil
them any considerable breakage of poles,
sach as was suffered by the large com
panies, whose poles were heavily loaded.
