Nov. 1-The weather during the past month has been the most favorable that could be imagined for the progress of the road and bridge construction work being done in this vicinity. Contractor McGreevey states that all but one run of concrete has been finished on the bridge on the state road south of town and that will be ready to be put in within a couple of days. The south approach to the bridge has been almost completed and a great deal of the done on the north approach If the present favorable weather continues just a little longer their concrete will be done up without the | many delays and hardships caused by cold and disagreeable weather. 0 ~~ Month Os October Sets Record In This Locality The month of Octoter concluding Friday has probably made a record for weather in northern Indiana, at least in some respects. Records at the Fort Wayne station of the weather bureau show that up to last evening there had been a total rainfall for |the montjj in this section amounting to less than one-'third of an inch, while the normal local rainfall is over 2.50 inches. All the precipitation during the month came in the first week as slight as it was. * l In addition to being unusually dry. the month has also /established a record for high temperature, nearly every day registered above the normal. The high mark for the month was recorded during the fifrst week, when the mercury went to 81 degrees.
