The really first serious snow storm
of the season got in its work Sunday
and the first touch Of winter was
visible Monday morning, when the
government thermometer registered
6 degrees below zero. We had hoped
for a record in having no zero
weather until after the first of the
new year, but the cold beat US out.
The snow came early Sunday morn
ing and there was little cessation
until late 10 the evening. The snow
was very moist and it amounted to
IA inches Of precipitation, and as
soon as it melts and runs in the
cistelns 1t will be appreciated.

was partially torn down last week.
