MORE SPRINGLIKE WEATHER
Salt Lake Blessed With Another Day
of Ideal Conditions-"Partly
Cloudy Comes True.

In spite of the fact that the predic-
ton made by the weather bureau on
Friday that it would be partly cloudy"
yesterday came true, conditions were
just about what the doctor ordered for
sick folks. There was plenty of sun
shine to penetrate the haze and enough
TO spread a kindly warmth over this
part of the earth and the people there
on. All afternoon the streets were
thrOnged with shoppers and those who
came out to enjoy the gentle day. The
maximum temperature in Salt Lake
yesterday was 40 degrees, and the min
imum 80. At o'clock last evening the
thermometer recorded a temperature of
~ degrees. The instrument used for
that purpose recorded a trace of precip-
itation, but it was so very tiny a trace
that few knew anything about it, The
prediction for today is more partly
cloudy and unsettled weather.
