Two of the tornadoes were some distance away and looked to me like great ropes dangling from the clouds, but the near one was shaped more likb a funnel with ragged clouds surrounding it. It appeared to be much larger and more energetic than the others and it occupied the central position of the cloud, the great cumulus dome being directly over it. 808 AS I paused to look I saw that the lower end which had been sweeping the ground was beginning to rise. I knew what that meant, so I kept my position. I knew that I was comparatively safe, and I knew that if .the tornado again dipped I could drop down and close the door before any harm could be done.

“Steadily, the tornado came on. the end gradually rising above the ground. I could have stood there only a few seconds but so impressed was I with what was going on that it seemed a long time. “At last the great shaggy end of the funnel hung directly overhead. Everything was as still as and .ath. There was a strong gassy oder and it seemed that I could not breathe. There was a screaming, hissing sound coming directly from the end of the funnel. “I looked up and to my astonishment I saw right up into the heart of the tornado. There was a circular opening in the center of the funnel, about 50 or 100 feet in diameter, and extending straight upward for a distance of at least one-half mile, as best I could Judge under the circumstances.

UNIVERSITY HIT BY JOB CRISIS Hundreds Unable to Get Work at Michigan. Bu T'nited Pres* ANN ARBOR, Mich.. Sept. 23. Unemployment is more than a theoretic economic problem for hundreds of students at the University of Michigan. A survey today showed there are approximately six applicants for every available job.

The combination of circumstances may force scares of students, in dire need of fimmcial aid, to withdraw from school. At the university employment bureau, it was learned there have been more than 600 applications for between 50 and 100 jobs listed. Little or no improvement in the shortage of jobs is expected.

CHEAPER TO CAN NOW THAN BUY NEXT WINTER Home-canning Pays Becaus# Fruit and Pure Cane Sugar Are So Cheap Now The abundance of luscious fruits In the market now. and pure cans sugar at an unheard-of low price, give every housewife the opportunity to put up a wide variety of preserves, jellies and jams at a most reasonable cost. With these homecanned delicacies on hand, the problem of next winter’s fruit desserts can be most inexpensi- ely solved. From the viewpoii c. of health, canned fruit, jellies and jams should appear daily in the winter diet. Canned fruits are rich in vitamins. Their flavor pleases the appetite, and their sugar content helps to balance the meal. Aside from eating jelly or jam with bread or toast, they are a delicious accompaniment for roast meats and other dishes. And a spoonful used to top rice or bread puddings makes these nourishing desserts more taste-appealing. As pure cane sugar plays an invportant part in preserving, so it is equally essential in the preparation of every-day meals. Pure cane sugar when used to season canned or fresh vegetables improves their flavor, thereby making them more enjoyable to the taste. Most foods are more delicious with pure cane sugar.
