for what has heretofore been known as a s'fair'

the sky was overcast with light clouds, b 1t
when neither rain or snow fell The phrase
generally misleads most persons to think a fair
day must necessarily be one when the sun
sh1Ies, whereas he kind OF weather meant
thereby at the signal Office is an absence Of
sunshine as we'll as OF falling weather. The
aim is to save expense In teegra phing by de.
