Sunday Was Slushy With Abundance of Melting Snow.

The weatherman hit the mark Saturday. He forecasted snow or rain with rising temperature and gave us the entire repertoire, throwing in a livtle sleet. The rain on top of the melting snow caused much slush and where walks had been cleaned Saturday evening after the snow they were made very slippery by the sleet. Many were thus prevented from going to Sunday school and church. The attendance at the Methodist Sunday school was 192 of 8 less than the Sunday before. At the Christian church it was 156 or 33 less than the previous Sunday.
