On the night OF the snow, c. C. Rey-
nolds, engineer in charge Of the Phila-

might be heavy. therefore he prepared
his paraphernalla and the next day
started on the work Of clearing of the
snow. When the snow stopped falling
al about o'clock, the work OF remov-
ing the snow was done. A pathway, 2s
feet wide. was made out OF the flve-inch
snow lust about an hour after the flakes
stopped falling. The department also
has loads OF clnders ready at Penny
Hill on the pike that are used on days
when snow or sleet are falling. These
clnders have been used several times
this year, and the persons driving
horses are especially appreclative OF the
help that Is given their animals In the
drive up Penny Hill.

The fact that he had been fired upon several times did not deter Linn from lingering in the vicinity and somewhere in his subconscious memory lurked the idea that nearby tn pen were herded together crea- lures composed of grunts and squeals, intended later on for con sumption by man.
