Sure Some Winter Now.

We are having typical Christmas weather, such as we read about, now. Nearly seven inces of snow fell Friday night, and Saturday night the mercury dropped below the cipher again. Sunday night was quite a little warmer and about 3 more inches of snow fell giving us perhaps the heaviest covering of ‘the beautiful” we have had for several years. Everyone having a cutter or sleigh, is taking advantage of tihe excellent sleighing. Following is the maximum and minimum temperature here, as taken from the government thermometer at St. Joseph’s college, for the past five days, the time covered being for the 24 hours of each day. Friday, Dec. 18, max., 32 above; min., 8 above. Saturday, Dec. 19, max., 34 above; min., 20 above. Sunday, Dec. 20, max., 26 above; min., 17 below. Monday, Dec. 21, max., 24 above; 14 above. Tuesday, Dec. 22, min., 6 below.
