Chief Moore, of the Weather
Bureau, Explains the
Forecast.

The local weather bureau has re-
ceived the following from Willis l..
Moore, chief of the weather bureau
which explains the storm in Wash
iEgton on March 4th:
1t is not usual to answer criticisms
OF the forecasts Of the weather bureau,
but the hundreds of press clippings
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 ten failed to be verified,
and it may be expected that the same
ratio of failure will be maintained IN
til meteorology can be made, what IL
is not now, an exact science.
In the case of the storm that visit
ed Washington on the 4th of March
last, the fact is that the disturbance
began here on the morning of the Sd,
and was accurately forecast the day
before. The bureau anticipated that the
storm center would pass over the Mid
die Atlantic states during the night
of the Sd, and that northwest winds
ana falling temperatures would leave
a clear day for the 4th- The center
passed precisely as forecast, the wind
shifted and the temperature fell, but
instead of the northwest wind clear
lag the sky as it does in nearly ali
cases, precipitation in the form OF
snow occurred and continued for
twelve hours after the storm center
had passed eastward Ne fOFecast9r
ct uId foTesee this. We're We % fore
cast a fall of snow following the pass
age of storm eenteFs that move from
the northwest, We would haVe hun
dreds of failures charged against US,
instead of an occasional one, for it Is
rare that snow falls in the Middle A.
Iantic States except with the approach
of a. storm from the southwest, which
causes northeast winds, and it is eX-
tTemely rare that any storm In this
region that begins with rain ends
With snow of any considerable amount
On the contrary. many storms that
begin as snow end as rain.
THE forecast in question was made
by one of the most experienced fore
casters of the bureau, and was con-
Cured in by all of the foTecasters who
were conversant with the conditions,
and the same forecast would be made
today If similar conditions existed.
'The forecasters of the U. s. wealth
er bureau are the equals, il not the
SupeIloI5I VI any oOhSiS III INC WI ~
and their predictions Of frOsts, cold
waves, foods and marine storms, al
though subject 10 error in the proper
ton of about one to ten, are of such
value to the Industries of the nation
that if one of the newspapers that
now so freely criticise because two
forecasts for the District
OF Columbia have fallen on Inaugural
tiOn day were to omit from its pages
the daily predictions of the weather
its readers would compel it to restore
them, and if the department or con-
gIess were to close a station of the
bureau in any part of the United
States the property interests would
demand its restoration. This would
not be the case if the hysterical abuse
that is now being INDUCED in was just
ifieu"

The germs are said to be the pro-

he had been engaged in building an
addition TO the building and saw the
mCney Wednesday in the safe. Tie
then decided to make try for it Wed

cessful. He claimed the safe door
was unlocked and he had no trouble
after getting in the building.

REV. DIR. TEMPLE
AT CATHEDRAL
Preached to Large COnerc-
cation Last Night Giving
Interesting Sermon

Characterizing earthly public opinion
as mere nothingness in contradistinc-
ton to heavenly opinion with which
God and his saints are concerned, Rev.
DR.. Temple, pastor of st. Elizabeth's
Church, so spoke to large congrega-
ton last night at the Cathedral. His
sermon was the third of the series Of
Lenten sermons scheduled for Lent at
this church. Dr. Temple, after reading
from st. Luke's gospel, which has to
do with the rejoicing in heaven over
one sinner doing penance more than
the ninety-nine who need not penance,
he launched forth a TRADE of abuse
against the press OF the world which
accepts news prepared by politicians
defamatory Of the Pope and the Cath
olic Church and which contains no
semblance of truth. Anything written
about the Catholic Church. he said.
truthful or untruthful finds its way
into the press of the county. News
papers, he declared with the great pow
erN they possess, mold public opinion.
Many Of them care very little whom
they attack. caring only for the news
side to the story they disseminate
abroad. DR.. Temple exemplihed many
practical domestic Illustrations that
confront humankind in life which
wrought public opinion against which
he contrasted the opinion held by the
Creator relative to these self same
world generated opinions. The opinion
Of the world against the opinion OF
God was the keynote Of his sermon.
DR.. Temple touched on drunkenness
which he stigmatized as one of the
greatest Of crimes. inasmuch as a
persons body is the temple Of the
Holy Ghost and to abuse it with drink
was to abuse God Himself
The speakers pereoration though
brief was an appeal for everyone pre-
sent to save his and her soul now. The
sermon was instructive because OF its
practicalness, coupled with it's plain
ness and common interest. SO far the
speakers at the Lepten services Of the
Cathedral have all been converts "a
Catholicism. Rev. Father iDoran. a
former Episcopal clergyman. who open
ed the Lenten course Of sermons; Rev
Father Mickle of Cape Charles, Va.
and Rev. DR.. Temple.
