"THE BEAUTIFUL IN AMERICUS
THE FLAKES WENT FLYING
First Snow in Half Score of Years Fell
Here.


Snow, the real article, as pure and
unsullied as the record of an edftoc,
delighted Americas for several min
utes yesterday, the flakes falling rap
idly and melting as they struck the
damp earth. But it was snow, just
the same, and hundreds here were
thus given a first glimpse of ''the
beautiful" as it has been a half score
years since such an occurrence. A
Lee street maiden lady of retentive
memory and compiler of historic facts
is authority for the statement that this
was the first snow in Americas since
1895, fifteen years ago, and the infor-
nation is doubtless correct.
