Years ago, Victor H. Roberts was working on the remodelling of the old Gibbon dry goods 4nmaStore, corner of Angela and Si-| “"“imonton streets, and lost track of his sawing implement. Try as he Might, Mr. Roberts could not “find his saw. } ‘Yhe search continued until the} building was finished but still the | _tgol did not make its appearance. » Years passed and during the in- tervening time, Mr. Roberts for- got about his loss. “Phe other day workmen began the old Gibbon structure. And—“Believe It Or Not"—in a cornice between the ceiling and weatherboarding of one of the rooms they found the old saw. j- | metal remaing “the tool the as bright as,ever and on the other side a few Tusty spots were found. Thecamazingly perfect state of preservation is probably due to the ent material and’ workmaliship, car- penters say. The rest of the house was worm eaten and about ready to fall apart, but some of the cornices were in great condition. The particular.cornice in which the saw lay was one “of these. The saw handle is perfect with not even a worm hole in it. Willie Burcheli, who was tear- ing down the old house, was told by Mr. Roberts to keep an eye out for the saw, which Mr, Rob- erts knew to be in one of the cornices. At the time the carpen- ter did not want to tear down the cornice to find it and allowed it to remain there. The saw is once again being used on the job, Mr. Roberts said.

France Shared In Italy and Germany have at last won a war in Spain. Re- ports from the battlefronts are that the Loyalist front, after a long gallant fight, is breaking in all directions to the pressure of outside munitions and troops. There are some very important productive mineral operations in Spain now that are very attrac- tive to the other nations of Eu- rope. England, Italy, Germany are pretty, well fixed to share in them. Poor old France, which supported the Loyalists were long thought to be out of the picture as far as getting in on these re- went. Yesterday Italy and France began negotiations for an alliance, which is intended to cement Italo-Franco friendship again. However, the move pretty well means that Italy has allowed ' France to get her economic share of Spain.
