The low comedian of the Steele Ozone
| points "the finger of scorn" at the REC

sometimes give it boost toward the COW
etcd distinction.

but the weather began to moderate in the
evening. Friday the sun shonc forth
bright and warm and the snow began to
melt rapidly. Up to the present the
thawing has continued and now the
ground is almost bare. Bobslcds have
given way to wagons, stock are feeding
on the prairie, and everything tends to
make people feel that spring is already
| here. Such weather as we have been
enjoying for the past week makes one
want to live thousand years.

call for meeting. But, as a date set by
one man might not suit the general con
venience, we think 1t would he better
for half dozen or more Williamsport
people to unite in call. 1t ought to be
done in time for publication next week.
