hands are endeavoring to be fair
to all concerned. Therefore, we
state that the weather has been
unusual the thermometer in
Mum Park having got down to 46
last night. However, it Is back to

check its upward climb. The skies.

niscent of the cold weather, at the
same time that they promise
warmer days. Tonight will not be
