Not one inch of, snow will
ever fall again on Clinton.
But that doesnt mean we
won't get our annual share of
the fluffy white stuff this
winter.
What it does mean though is
that from now on, the ac-
cumulation forecasts and
reports will be.officially given
in centimetres.
For the record, the total
ae bnt4t ::that: '•came down in
the first.NtOur snowfall in
our area 'was 8.5 cm (cen-

precipitation (snow in cen-
timetres, rain in millimetres)
began in Canada September
1. It's et another, step on the
county s march to metric., ..
conversion .
But bow much snow is 8.5
cm? Well, . one cm is ap-
proximately the width of a
man's little finger nail: Five
centimetres is up to a per-
son's ankles, fifty would be up
to the knees. One -hundred
centimetres. • or one metre,
would be about waist level,
and an awful lot of snow:
To look, at it another way,
the Metric Commission
suggests that a snowfall of
three centimetres can be
swept off the driveway with a
broom.
With thirty centimetres. " a
shovel is needed, traffic is
snarled up, and the highway
plows are called out to clear
thoroughfares.
Except for the Pacific
Coast, snowfall in Canada is
lightest in the Arctic. , It's
heaviest, averaging about 300
cion annually. in Ncwfoun* Records lists the greatest

While visiting In" Clinton
this summer I learned more
about you from Aunt Rase
Niekle, and her svisits with
youin hospital. Now it 'is
Christmas. a good time to .
stop and say thanks to those
who unselfishly gave to
others all year. It would seem
a great mistake to have en-
joyed your talents through.
the years and then neglect to
tell you so. �..
Thanks again for the • joy
you are bringing to others,
especia14r to those who do not
live near -by. Your friend.
