was done in that community by the
wind, several wind mills being blown
over and small buildings being remov

says, will be attended by lower
temperatures early in the week
over the central plains states, the
Missouri and upper Mississippi
valleys and the upper lake regions
and probably by some moderation
in the Ohio valley and the lower
lake region. In the east and south
temperature changes during the
week will not be decided, while in
the northwest it will be warmer
Monday and by the middle of the
week temperatures will be rising
over the central and western por-
tons of the country.
''1n the south, thunderstorms
are likely to continue the greater
portion of the week.

tions of tropical disturbance"
