it goes without saying that the precip

The rain of Wednesday afternoon
was one of the hardest that has fallen

the streets were regular little rivers
of water. This morning the perform
ance was duplicated.
From the appearance OF the heavens
this morning, the fall rains have Sc

be almost continued rain, at least I'm
til after the change of the equinox OF
September 21, when days and night
will be the same length.
