That Winter fingers in the lap of
Spring" is very evident fact; indeed, an
unpleasant fact. Sunday was regular St.
Patrick's Day, with alterations of wind,
rain, snow and sunshine No less than four
snow storms visited us during the day, and
it was a strange sight to witness the wor-
shippers coming out from st. Joseph's Church
laden with palm branches, into the teeth of
a driving snow storm. On Monday nearly
a like condition prevailed, with occasional
flurries of snow. On Tuesday night ice
over one fourth of an inch thick by actual
measurement formed. Considerable anxiety
is felt for the fruit crop, especially peaches.
