All that Is necessary to make the day
at Culver a joyful one Is the weather,
and that has been taken in charge by
committee consisting of Strickland
! w. Gillian, chairman; Kin Hubbard,
| Louis T. Smith, George Frink and Ste
phen B. Fleming. Gillian has already
| issued a weather forecast for the day,
as follows:
WEATHER 4-CAST
| For Saturday. June For Indiana
and abutting property, clear. with salt
rising temperature.
| Thunder heads. but no dunder-h heads,
appearing just north of Logansport.
| Heavy northwest winds. shifting from
Chicago to the sedgy selvage of Lake
Maxinkuckee.
Showers of bons mot 90 you French
pluralsD and storms of Hail-fellow-
well-mets, about noon. The glad halls
/
! heard falling everywhere.
| This weather stunt has devolved en-
tirely upon the chairman of the COM
mittee because none of the other mem
bers except Miss Fawn Lippincut, an
| affinity of Abe Martin, could be induced
! to make the trip to Baltimore and
| Fawn was no help. The effort has been
| greater than even an Indiana novelist
of the fourth large edition can fmag
inc, so don't try it. The methods we
have employed have been original and
the processes secret So don't nose in
/ Two urgent kilograms from President
Nesbt to the chairman, squirting the
latter to action. will be used to create
an atmospheric disturbance late in May
so that the solar system may be thor
oughly purged before June once. II
that will not do 1t, this joke will be
sprung:
What branch of the government
service resembles g. sheepfold?"
:, The wether department"
That ought to create general storm
with low barometer
This day in June is going to be rarel
than the steak is when you ask the
good and faithful servant at the clul
for well done"
| If this plan should not pan out, thu
members of the society may do theil
own panning, the undersigned chair
man Will be hard to catch, and the res
of the committee will wear linen col
! lars as DISCUSSES.
STRICKLAND GILLIAN.
Chairman Weather Committee.
