from freezing all day long, when in
fact the greatest variance of the ther-
mometer during the day was % de-
srees And this too, with the high
est mark touching SIS degrees leaving
the lowest temperature recorded for
the day a distance of 80 degrees from
the freezing point
But "a temperature Of 61 degrees

times, and yesterday was one OF these
times. Fact of II is, it seemed more
than ehllly--prctty wen along toward

The orphan fly at this time begins
TO look like sorry cuss and has the
appearance that ne would like TO go

would give him q bum steer and tell
him to go to--some other place. Any
