LIGHTNING HAS ■ A SAVING GRACE It Will Not Strike Man When r He's Down, Lightning, whatever else you may I wish to call it, cannot be branded ! ungentlemanly: at least, not customarily. It never —or almost never ,—strikes a man when he’s down. So says .Marshall Robb, InC ni!u polls. secretary of the Indiana Public Utilities Association. It seems, according to figures, that standing is just fifteen times as | dangerous as lying on the ground, in a storm. A man standing under | a storm cloud would be struck {ifteen times in 100 strokes, wherein? a man Hat on the ground would best ruck only once. To be sure, that’s a slight exag geration, since lightning seldom strikes the same man more than once, whether he's lying or standing. So, it night he expected, next time it storms around here, for the whole citizenry outdoors to throw itself upon the ground, somewhat in the attitude of —is it Mohammedans? —at prayer, and call out to Mr. Lightning to remind him he is a gentleman.
