DR.. Humphreys. for these colors in
dictate even less condensation and,
therefore, a dryer air than does red.
Hence we can accept the following
lines from Shakespeare as the eX-
preston of general truth:
The weary sun hath made a go-
And by the bright track of his
fiery car
Gives token Of sOOdly day to-
morrow.
If however, the evening sky has
none Of these colors but is overcast
with a uniform gray. then we know
that numerous water drOplets are
present, and that the dust particles,
in spite of the heat they absorbed
from sunshine. have become loaded
with much moisture. Obviously then,
to produce this effect the atmosphere
at considerable elevations must be
practically saturated, condition that
favors rain and justifies the familiar
proverbs:
II the sun set in gray
The next will be rainy day.
n the sun goes pale to bed
Twill rain TO- morrow, il is said.
Additional proverbs on sky cqIors
are as follows:
Evening gray and morning red
Make the shepherd hang his head.
An evening gray and morning
Will send the shepherd wet to bed.
Evening red and morning gray
Two sure signs Of one fine day.
Evening red and morning gray
Helm the traveller on his way;
Evening gray and morning red
Brinq down rain upon his head.
Indians Had Proverbs.
There are many proverbs foretelI-
ing rain and bad weather by the APP
pearanCe Of solar and lunar halOs and
caronas. and DR.. Humphreys says.
"As these form only when there is
much moisture in the air and some
condensation, the proverbs Of this
class are well founded
The Zuni Indians have a provere
which says.
When the sun is in his house it
will rain soon.
These proverbs referring to the
nalo. are cited as being reliable:
Far burr, near rain.
The bigger the ring, the nearer
the wet.
When the wheel is far the storm
is mar;
When the wheel is mar the storm
is far.
The appearance Of the moon really
depends on the conditions Of the at
mosphere. and proverbs based on phc-
nomena Of this nature are more OF
less sound and have muCu value.

Walter Scott Chambers, former pres

campaign against the proposed To-

that the gift would necessitate an adj

Chambers also suggested that if the
library is built a picture be placed
therein. done in oil, showing the
men at toll. their wives prematureIy

The City Council refused to indorss
the library movement.

Ancient Proverbs Are Especially
Recommended to Communities,
Which Do Not Get Bulletins.
SHAKESPEARE is QUOTED
"Year of Snow, Fruit Will Grow"
Declared Invaluable Along
With Other JingIing Verses.
BY HUGH S. MILLER.

WASHINGTON, June I. - The
weather proverb. at which some sci
entists have presumed to sneer has
received the official approval of the
United States Weather Bureau. TINS
Government experts have decided that
in general these proverbs are based
on actual scientific phenomena, and
can be depended on. They are es-
peciallv recommended to the people
in communities which do not receive
official forecasts from the Bureau.
Says the Weather Bureau, in d
paper written by w J. Humphreys,
Professor Of Meteorological Physics of
the Bureau. and appearing in the
year-b book of the Department of Agri-
culture
Thus the fisherman to-day, as in
the past, will weigh anchor and flee
from the gathering storm when. TO
the initiated, there is no indicatiG@
of anything other than continued ~
weather. and the woOdssnan, as dis
his remotest ancestors, will note sig
nificant changes and understand their
warning messages when the average
man would see no change at all, or
II he did. would fail to comprehend
its meaning"
Frost Year, Fruit Year.
Now to the proverbs themselves.
Here are several:
Frost year,
Fruit year.
Year OF snow.
Fruit will grow
A year Of snow,
A year Of plenty.
That these and similar statements
commonly are true is evident from
tine fact that more OF less continu

cold winter. not only delays the bios
soming of fruit trees till after the
probable season Of killing frosts, says
DR.. Humphreys. but also prevents
that alternative thawing and freez-
ing 20 ruinous to wheat and other
winter grains. In short, as another
prOverb puts Il:
"A late Spring never deceives.
There is another class Of proverbs,
expressing almost the same meaning
as those just given. but in a different
way. Here are some Of them:
January warm,
The Lord Have Mercy.
" you see grass in January,
Lock your grain in your sranary.
January blossoms fill no mans
cellar.
