RAINS FELL
GENEROUSLY
LAST night
COLD WAVE IS PREDICTED
Unsettled Weather, Probably
Showers For Today

After having threatened throughout
the entire day on Saturday to turn on
the water spigot Jupiter Pluvius fin
ally got busy in a hurry soon after
dusk yesterday afternoon, giving be-
lated shoppers and others one of the
most genuine shower baths that has
been doDed out here in a long time.
The fact that the weather had been
threatening practically all day long
without bringing rains caused many
la pedestrian to be caught without
umbrella or wraps. The rain fell as
heavily as a summer "soaker" for
more than a quarter of an hour, while
lighter showers continued pretty well
throughout the night.
These most recent rains, together
with those experienced several days
ago, have given local farmers due
cause to rejoice, as last nights rains
alone constituted very good seas
on" Showers are also predicted for
to-day. When the present rains are
over, there is probability that even
cooler weather than was experienced
recently will be ushered in.
The conditions for the next thirty
six hours are unsettled, and Indicate
that rain may occur tomorrow. a
cool wave is also predicted.
Following is the official forecast for
the entire country:
Conditions this morning seem fa-
yorable for a change to cooler wealth
er in Georgia within the next SO hours.
The western cold wave is now cen
tral over Kansas and Colorado and
seems to be sufficiently far south to
affect conditions in the cotton belt.
Temperatures in north central Texas
are now only 4 degrees above freez-
ing, though rain is falling in that sec
tion, also in Oklahoma and Arkansas.
Temperatures are down to 28 de-
grees in Kansas and Is degrees in
southern Colorado. In the eastern
part of the country no particular
weather changes are noted Rain
falling in the Atlantic states from
North Carolina to New York and New
England and snow in the upper lake
region.
Cooler weather is expected in
Georgia Sunday, attended by unset
tied conditions. probably rain"
