The storm forces noted in last bull
letin will continue in this disturbance
which will be radical during it's four
to six days movement from the Paci-
fic to the Atlantic. Indications are
that the low or storm center will
come in by Sitka and Vancouver,
where it will be severe, then passing
southwest of Manitoba, through the
Ohio valleys, Pennsylvania, the state
of New York, New England state and
out onto the steamship route Of the
North Atlantic. 1t will pass Van
couver about June 16, and pass out
onto the Atlantic about June 90.
BY the newspaper reports you will
be able to trace that disturbance dur
ing It's seven days voyage, and its
history will interest those who watch
the workings of natural laws or, as
the scientists call it, the laws Of
physics.
Temperatures will average lower
than usual during the week 16 to %.
Rainfall will be deficient south of
latitude 40, between the Mississippi
and the Rockies. Heavy rains along

Immediately following June Is the
severe disturbance will be moving
from the Mississippi eastward and
very low temperatures will be coming
down from Manitoba and the Canadian
northwest. Best policy is to expect
unusually severe weather from Sun
day, June IA, to Monday %. Most PEG
pie will feel disappointed because
they expected exceedingly bad weather
and it did not come, because these
severe storms reach comparatively
few people while the storms bring the
most delightful weather all around
them.

of the women friends are so unpract

it will be safe to hang out their
laundry to dry. Be practical; don't
ask too much of the weather man. He
is getting there slowly and If you
will make reasonable allowance and
have a little patience the great
weather problem will be solved to the
satisfaction Of reasonable people.
A New York author has recently
published a book advocating the
electrical theory Of the universe and
am glad to welcome him as an ally
| in the good work. He attacks New
toms theory Of gravitation, the schoo
book explanations Of the tides, the
nebular hypothesis and the heat theory
of force. Good. If, in my thirty years
efforts, / have had any influence In
awakening this able scientist an6
author | will be gratifed.
But while his purpose like my own
is to fay orthodox science and estah
fish correct basis for all science
at the end of that we part company
My purpose is to find the secrets Of
nature and the laws that control the
weather. His purpose is to prove thai
Genesis, of the Bible, is based on true
science. I do not propose to go into
that discussion. The atom, or cleo
iron, as | see it, has power the
origin of which no man can explain
That is the preachers field and | will
let him explain it.
