WEATHERMAN
MAKES PROTEST
Inauguration Weather
Calls Forth An
Explanation

The weatherman protests. After
years of telling the truth about the
future, he fell down most sadly In
promising Mr.. Taft a pleasant day
for Inauguration. The result was that
he was assailed throughout the coun.
try. But he comes back at his detrac-
tors In the following terms:
The Storm Of March Fourth.
II is not usual to answer criticisms
Of the forecasts of the Weather Blu.
reau, but the hundreds of press clip
pings that have been received since
March 4 containing adverse criticisms
Of the Bureau seem to call for this
statement from me.
Forecasts OF the Weather Bureau
are before the public every day In the
year. In the past about one predic.
ton out OF each ten failed to be veri.
fed, and II may be expected that the
same ratio OF failure will be maintain.

In the case OF the storm that visited
Washington on the 4th of March last,
the fact Is that the disturbance be.

and was accurately forecast the day
before. The Bureau anticipated that
the storm center would pass over the
Middle Atlantic States during the
night OF the 3rd, and that northwest
winds and falling temperatures would
leave clear day for the 4th. The
center past precisely as forecast. the
wind shifted and fhe temperature fell.
but instead of the northwest wind
clearing the sky as 1t does in nearly
all cases, precipitation In the form OF
snow occurred and continued for
twelve hours after the storm center
had past eastward. No forecaster
could foresee this. Were we to fore.

Insect FRIENDS
and OUR FRUITS
Professors Kotl1Sky and
Higgins Give Interest
ing Lectures

The lectures at the College Of Ha-
wall last night were OF unusual in
tcreat. Mr.. Jacob Kotinsky spoke on
our Insect Friends" and Mr.. J 4.
Higgins described some Of our mos;
promising fruits. Both the lectures
were well illustrated with lantern
slides and were arranged in sucn =
way that the interesting points in
the subjects were brought out clear
~.
Mr. Kotinsky showed that while
we were prone to look upon insects
as either nuisance or positively iC-
furious, yet a great many of them
were decidedly beneficial AS mat

enemies that tend TO destroy them.
In this respect he recognized three
groups. First. those insects that We

their larval stage. These little help

members of this class The second
group includes those insects that In
their larval and adult stages are
prcdacious upon other insects. This
Is perhaps the most abundant group
and includes such insects MS the

was recognized as scayengers. These

Father O'Hara looked at the two prts-

He was the man whom Colonel Sullivan
and Bale had overtaken on their way
to Tralee. He was a merciful man n
with all his heart he wished that, II
he could do no good, God had been
pleased to send him another way
through the mist.
What can I do?" he cried. "Oh,
what can 1 do?"
You can do nothing, father" o'Sul-
Ivan Og said grimly. They're here
tics, no less! And we're wasting your
time, blessed man. He whispered a
few words in the priests ar.
The latter shuddered. God forgive

who need 1t most! God bless us from

Sure and we're in little peril" O'Sul-
Ivan Og replied.
Colonel John looked at the priest with
solemn eyes. Nor did aught but a tiny
pulse beating in his cheek betray that
he was listening, watching, ready to
seize the least chance, that he might
save at any rate, poor Bale. Then you
you are a Christian, father" he said,

But this is my servant. He knows

OF looking over his shoulder. Was he

second man broke in vehemently in

for a few seconds all spoke at once.
Then, just as Colonel John was begin

reluctance, and a man ran back the
way they had come, shouting a name.
