Of the month with a low record Of y

December, 1910, seems to show q
fairly warm month with a short odd
streak about the 23rd of the month
with only two times below the cipher

in January when the mercury lay
around in the bulb OF most Of u
thermometers for days, starting on
December 25, and staying below zero
almost continuously until January q,
the lowest record for December Is IS
