TWO HOT DAYS
STILL IN SIGHT
Mercury Will sizzle Monday ard
Tuesday, and There's More Tornd
Stuff Headed This Way.

We are due to take at least two
more tablets OF this concentrated sum
mer weather.
This is the immediate prescription
OF the local weather forecaster lie
knows 1t is going To be hot Monday
and Tuesday. Beyond that, you make
your own guess-but with the under
standing all around that there Is AN
other spell of holiness baking the
northwest just at present and likely
To select this for Its next stopping
place.
All the eastern half OF the country
Is getting the same thing. Cool
breezes and showers are the happen
ings all along the line. the same he
ing flee ting In all cases and giving
way 10 the even sizZle OF this sum
merry sultriness. We are likely 20
have more showers right along, but
they will not be as severe as those
we have had the past two or three
days
Also-and here speaks Hope-Mon
day night is predicted TO be somewhat
cooler than its immediate predeces
sors Thai will help trifie.
II may comfort you TO learn that "
is somewhat cooler over Lake super
ior. II is a sweet thought that some
where the people are not toddling
around with melted collars ana drip
ping brows.
Sometime II will be cooler here.
