has not been a great amount of thaw-
ing. Last Friday and Saturday con-
cluded the blustry days of last weeks
storm, and Sunday was clear though
cold.

its highest peak of the week with a
reading of SO. The low reading was

1t was two below on Friday and
Saturday mornings and near the zero

the weather tomorrow which is sup
posed to determine whether or not
there will be six weeks of winter
weather, depending on Herr Ground
