Do you believe in a buneh of old tale* about lightning — about how it's attracted by cats or the warmth of cattle... how it never strike* in the same place twice...or how it** liable to turn milk sour? Lots of people often do—but they’re wrong. Dad Hawkina inspired this col umn today. He’s really studied up on lightning since his own cow barn was struck that time. “Trouble is, most of u* don't know half enough about the sub ject." Dad says. "And about half of what we d* know is false!" From where I ait. Dad's state ment applies to a lot of things be sides lightning. Too many people think they know their neighbor's wrong when he votes for his can didate instead of theirs. Some peo ple even resent our right to enjoy a friendly glass of beer if and when we choose. Opinions based on misinformation and prejudice, in stead of being “groOnded" on true facts can cause more damage than lightning ever did. ¡9í!.
