WEATHER NICE AGAIN
The weather is very nice again

but more especially in the matter of
relative heat and cold. Some one
has said, that with everything going
up. up, up. the mercury in the ther
mometer has gone down, down, down
to the lowest mark in years. A gen
eral shortage of fuel, has added to
the acuteness of the situation and
even yet in eastern cities and towns
the cold weather menace is continu
ing. For fourteen straight days in
the month of January we had con
tinuous below-zero weather and a
large part of February has followed
the example which we hoped might
be an exception to the rule.
