RECORD CLIMB
Hottest, Coolest, Driest
Places in World Are
AsCertained.

b. fnHca Pfcss
WASHINGTON, Jan. 1s.-Prob-
ably there is no aspect of weather
in which the public at large is more
keenly interested than the occurrence
OF record breaking extremes.
Every year Weather bureau re-
,ceives a sheaf Of letters from people
who wish to know the highest and
lowest temperatures ever registered
in the United States or in the whole
world; what places have most or
least 4. or how hard the wind can
bic en- it tries.
The answers given to such in
quiries are subject to revision from
year to year. Most statistical records
of weather are product Of COM
paratiYely recent times. Hence the
extremes of bygone years are occa-
sionally surpassed.
1856 Above Registered
A temperature of 1856 degrees Fab
renheit was registered on Sept. Is,
1922, at the village of Azizia, in the
Italian Sahara, about twenty-five
miles of Tripoli
This is the highest shade" tenn
perature ever recorded at
meteorological station, exceeding by
two degrees the maximum for North
America, registered in Death Valley,
Cal, July 10, 1913.
The worlds lowest air tenn.
perature registered near the esrth's
surface, 90 degrees below zero Fab
reheit, occurred at Verkhoyansk,
2 Siberia. about a degree of latitude
north of the. Arctic Circle, on Feb,
5 and 7. 1892. The lowest in the
upper air&133 below zero-was
registered by a sounding balloon
about ten miles above Batavia, Java,
in November, 1918.
Greenland Is Coolest
In respect to average tempera-
lures for the entire year, the cold
est parts of the world are the lofty
interiors of Greenland and Antarc-
tict, where. judging from the scanty
observations of explorers, the aver
ages are something like rs degrees
below zero Fahrenheit.
At the opposite end Of the scale
is the terrific heat of Massaua, on
the Red sea, with a mean annual
temperature. of 86 degrees.
The doubtful honor of being the
worlds rainiest spot has also been
claimed for the weather station at
the summit of Mt. Waialeale, in the
Hawaiian islands, AS this place is
dificult of access, the rain is meas
ured only once year with a huge
gauge, designed to store the entire
years rainfall. The latest average
reported for the station is 427 inches
per annum.
Iquique Is Driest
The driest spot on the globe for
which records are available is Iqui-
que, Chile, with an average rainfall
Of only two-tenths inch a year.
The heaviest average rainfall
measured in the United States is
1884 inches a year at Glenora, Til
lamook county, oregon, and the
highest is 1.65 inches year in
Death valley.
The sunniest region of the world
is probably the Nile valley in up
per Egypt, while the greatest prev
alence of clouds is found in certain
areas on the borders of the. Arctic
and the Antarctic.
The maximum size attained and
attainable by haiIstones is quite I'M
certain. A stone that fell through
the roof of a house at Heidgraben,
Schleswig- Holstein, in August, 1925,

My dear Sir:
/ want to thank you and our
Noble Order for the promptness for
aid in the time of need and for
truthfulness. So many of our Orders
are dying for the lack of real
head, men of honor, men who value
time and their word. So sure was l
of the check as promised me by you
that in leaving my office Tuesday l
made out deposit slip and gave in
structions before leaving for the
country, on my return | found
everything o. X.
Now in this case l feel that special
mention should be made, since our
Brother Allen Butler, who had just
died last Thursday and a member of
lodge not in my city where I could
get my hands on his officers, yet you
and your noble office force relieved
me and the beneficiaries of that
worry and in less than a week his
death claim was paid. If there is
any one thing that will make our
grand old Order grow it's your
method of conducting affairs.
Again | wish to thank you and
ask the blessings of God on you and
the Order.
l am fraternally yours,

You go to your work wet or dry.
God is worthy Of the worship of all
