Nation, H., July 20.-Begin-

steam whistle used ordinarily to
sound the alarm of fire will an
nounce by code the government
forecast of weather conditions for
the next twenty-four hours. The
board of aldermen arranged the limo

The weather forecast comes into
Sullivan each morning at II o'clock
by telephone. 1t will be wired i'm
mediately to the city water works
plant and there an engineer will tell
everyone whiting hearing the news
One long blast will signify clear
weather That is easy, SO 1t Is easy
to arrange a series of short toots for
rain and to mix the two for thunder
showers and the like.
But how about the "tele-whist-
ling" to the inhabitants of wealth
er ofrecast something like this:
Generally fair tomorrow. Slightly
lower temperature tonight; varied
winds tomorrow and cloudy, with
probable local thunder showers In
the south portion" There is the
rub and the officials are wondering
whether it will be necessary to EN-
ploy an expert to devise the code.
Then the code must be learned by
all the people. Sullivan has 5000
inhabitants, but 5000 live within
the hearing of the whistle.
