CRAWL UNDER
BLANKETS
Chilly Night Brought by Winds
From Canadian Storm
Area.

George, the average Washington
ian, burrowed under blankets to-
day. as he clothed himself for the
days labor; and when he began to
polish his face with a razor, after
guiltily >omitting his setting-'Ip ex-
ercises, the blade slipped in his
unsteady grasp. And thus, as Mr..
Briggs would say, the whole day
was ruined
Not many days ago. George was
promising humiliation to the next
grinning moron who inquired If it
were hot enough for him. Today he
was strongly tempted to don two
pairs Of socks and he contemplated
his camphor-smelling "heavies" with
something akin to affection.
However, the worst is over. The
weather man, who was for time
afraid to meet his neighbors' &C
cusing eyes, chirruped flair and
warmer" for the day.
The temperature went as low as
81 degrees yesterday, the cold being
induced by cold northwest winds
following heavy storms on the st.
Lawrence river. The chill wave ex.
tended over the Ohio valley, the
Eastern States, and New England.
and was felt as far south as Arkan.
