devilment was afoot. We were warned.
We were cautioned again and again.

Thus, in his Uncle Jim Bob found

had withheld. The weeks before Bob
entered college were as full as the

to take his entrance examinations did
Sanderson grow serious.

Suspsnsion Bridge IL
Moved in One Piece

When the suspension bridge which
spans the Avon gorge was removed
from its old job Of spanning the
Thames, 1t was taken to pieces and
transported to Bristol bit by bit. But
the new bridge at Harwich, In connec-
ton with the train-ferry service to
Zeebrugge, was transported from Its
original position at Southampton In
