Street Department Gets
Ready For Snowstorm

Swirling. slashing. and piling in tre-
mendous heaps under the drive of a
merCless wind. a heavy snow fall bids
fair TO carpet the streets of Washington
within a few hours-if--if you look at
the future with the eyes of the local
Street Cleaning Department OF course,
il doesn't bid fair to do that right now.
sure enough. but a visit TO the shops of
the department would make you think
the elements guilty of an anachrOnism-
whatever that may be. Just gaze
into the shops would convince you that
summer was winter or put some strange
notion of that sort scurrying and worry
ing through what scientists declare to
be the gray matter"
mending them with a zest that would
send the imaginative mind Of anyone
months into the future. Easily the mem
tai picture of Washington transformed
into a city of white looms up in the mind
OF the OnloOker at the shops. Easily
can the eyewitness TO the work see the
thermometer at the thirty mark or there
about. and feel the collar of his over
coat rubbing the back of his neck and
his ears.
Washington owns twenty-fOur pave
ment plowS and twenty-five gutter plOws.
They are being put in condition at the
shops of the department at Fourteenth
and streets southeast, and the men
have instructions to work as If il was
going to snow right now.
