PAR VDISE IS AT HAND
Astoria: Big toads, little toads
and others of the amphibious
family are reported to be nightly
making migrations across the
lower Columbia river highway
from the hills toward the river
during the recent heavy rains.
Stage drivers reported that in
some places hundreds could be
| seen at one time. No reoson for the
migration has been advanced ex
cept that the frogs have observed
the lowlands covered with water
and thought that frog paradise
was at hand.
