COLDER WEATHER

Washington, Oct. s.-Normal wea-
ther conditions generally throughout
the country were predicted today for
this week by Willis L. Moore, chief of
the United States weather bureau. In
the weather bulletin he says:
'The indications are that the unus-
ual atmospheric activity in the United
States which prevailed during the last
two weeks will be ucceeded the COM
ing week by normal progression of
high and low pressure areas across
the country. The disturbances will
in all probability move on the high
latitudes and hence the rainfall dur
ing the week will be generally light
except in the Pacific states where
rains will be frequent.
THE temperature during the week
will be normal for the season. The
disturbance to cross the country will
appear in the northwest today or to-
morrow, cross the middle west Tues
day or Wednesday and reach the st.
Lawrence valley about Thursday; it
will be preceded by a general rise in
temperature, attended by a short pc
riod of local rains. and be followed
by change to colder weather with
probably frosts in the northern half
of the country"
