A GLE ONY SATURDAY
SAYS WEATHER man
Rains and Colder Weather
Predicted For Today

Yesterdays gloomy and wet wealth
er is to be duplicated in what will be
served up today, according to the re-
port of the weather man in the way
of weather forecast.
In fact, even worse weather, if the
forecast comes true, is indicated for
today than was experienced yester-
day, as not only rain but cold is pre-
dicted as the weather menu. YesteT-
days rain itself during at least a
part of the day was anything but
comfortable as the temperature was
low enough to make the bad weather
felt all the more.
A real, live thunderstorm yester-
day afternoon added to the gayety Of
the elements, which were otherwise
very gloomy and Weepy. While thun-
derstorms in December are not I'M
known, they are rather unusual, and
for a time in the early afternoon the
rains that fell resembled very strong
ly summer rainstorm, with the eX-
ception that the wind was not high.
They were brave shoppers who ven
tured out upon the streets for any
distance
Altogether the rains of the last two
nights and yesterday were the hard
est that have been experienced here
recently. All the new pavements re-
ceiyed a very generous winter clean
| ing, while in some parts of the city
water was banked up in typical frog
pond style. Today's rains, though
they will probably not be as heavy
as yesterdays, will prove none the
less uncomfortable, and it will be a
brave Christmas shopper who will
tempt the elements if such is the
case
