HIGH TEMPERATURE
 FUR MAY ONLY 1O5

Hope for the people of Phoenix who will spend the summer here is con tained in the meteorological summary for May, prepared by the weather bu- reau. which records that whereas in years previous the thermometer has registered as high as IA degrees for the month of flowers. this year the high weather mark has merely been 105 degrees.
 And for that matter, who can blame the thermometer for going up, as long that seems to be a fad that has been enjoying a brisk season, and especially considering that the sun has shone here 414.7 out of q possible 430.1 hours, and that there were 27 clear and 4 partly cloudy days out of the 31. It also may cause a shiver of pleasant reminiscence to learn that it has been as cold as 50 degrees at times. The normal tenn perature for the month was 74.S de- grees. The mean tempera ture was 75.8.
 All the precipitation that occurred during the month just passed feH
 within the> space of A hours and amounted to Az inches The hail and thunderstorm was the only unusual l phenomenon of the month.
