When Titanic went down.....!

Along with Titanic 1500 bottles Wine, 15000 bottles Champaign 20000 bottles Beer and 70 crates of Koniac-too went down. Charles Joughin, the chief Baker, came to know he had 2 hours to his life.

Useless fears !

Two friends were travellig  through a dence forest.One was very  nervous and saw phatoms in every corner. The other was stronger  than him. When  they were practically at the end of their journey they saw somethig unusual. The weaker of the two fainted. The other one  though frightend  determined to stand his ground and face it. Finally the moon came out and he found it to be a piece of paper floating in the air. The darkness was the the cause of this. This often happens in our lives too. Things that frighten us the most are frequetly those  of which  we should be least afraid !
