,Des Moines, July s.-Abnormal lack

afternoon, according to DR.. George M.

For the past week Old Sol has risen

TALLY obscured long before sinking
from sight. People thought the smoke
Of the Fourth accounted for the con-
ditions. However, they forgot that
for several evenings last week the
same performance was staged by the
sun.
1T is q sort Of Indian summer we
are having" said DR.. Chapel. The
cause is found in the abnormal wind
conditions and the fact that we have
had a long hot, dry spell. There is
dust in the atmosphere, which is not
carried away by the winds and there
is also some smoke. The Fourth prob
ably accounted for part of the hazy
setting Of the sun Monday evening.
However, last week it was not the
smoke from the forest fires in Can
ada which caused the peculiar at
mospheric conditions as many people
supposed. There was more dust than
supposed"
