UNUSUAL UNIFORM LITERATURE FOR M 0 NTH JANUARY
Weather Summary Gives Av- craze Temperature 26.5 De-
 grees - Large Snowfall.

Remarkably uniform temperature and an abundance of snowfall eharae. terized the weather of Juneau during January. according 10 the Weather Bureaus meteorological summary.
 Ranging from a maximum of 4S degrees on the Sth to a minimum Of 12 on the 2Sth. the temperature aver aged 265 degrees for the month, as against the normal of 2s.7 degrees. A reading of g degrees or lower was recorded each day of the month. and there were 12 days on which the temperature rose above 32 degrees at some time during the 24 hours.
 With the temperatures generally below freezing the precipitation was naturally mostly in the form of snow. The total of rain and unmelted snow was 5.16 inches, as against Jan uary mean of past years Of 6S0 inches The snowfall aggregated 46.2 nches, with a water equivalent O 3.S3 inches. Although 1.33 inches Of rain fell during the month. there was a sufficient snow cover to ab sorb the rain and practically T. water reached the surface of the ground. With OBS inches of water in the form Of unmelted snow that was on the ground at the beginning of the month. the water content 0. the snow cover at the end of the month was 5.74 inches Flat roofs 9. m haa 4J hpf hor r rying an enormous weight of water, said Meteorologist M B. Summers. Although the average depth eff the snow cover at the end of the month was only about 19 inches. the layer is SD dense that each square foot of il weighs 29.9 pounds, and space only 10 feet square has a weight of practically one and onehalf tons.
 Although the snowfall of the month just closed was 13 inches more than the January normal, it was but little more than half of the amount that fell in the memorable month of De cember 1917, according to Mr. Sum mers. In that month the total was Sl.1 inches, and none of it melted on the ground. The water content of the snow of that month was 6.s7 inches, and the weight sustained by roofs at the end of the month was therefore somewhat greater than at the end of January of this year
 There were 2i days in January on which measurable quantity of rain or snow fell; days that were clear, that was partly cloudy and g that were cloudy.
 The average hourly wind move. ment was 7.9 miles, and the highest velocity for five-minute period was SS miles an hour from the east, on the 17th
 The sunshine aggregated 55.7 hours, or 9 per cent of the possible amount.

B0BS VERSUS ONBOBS
 BATTLE NOW RAGING

TACOMA. Feb. 2.-To bob or no, to bob, that is the question.

The Old Maids Club and the Twentieth Cen tury Club are the names of the rival organizations, the latter being the bobbcd haired girls.
 The two clubs are giving a series of parties that may decide whether the boys of the school prefer bobbed or unbobbed hair.
