Our first experience of real
■ winter came February 6, 7, 8, 9
and 30 when the thermometer ran
from 52 to 60 below zero at 7 a.

i ed “sun pups” or little suns, with
their luminous irridescent trails
' of ice-crystals, still persist in their
prognostications for cold weather,

| 60 below.)
‘ The epidemic of colds accom
panied with coughs has quite sub
I sided. Fortunately only one-half

1 cent for one month only was 97,
in December, the remaining
: months running 98 to 99 and 100
for the month of September. Who

appreciate an education?
