Week -end Storms
Those who had been rejoicing that

snow had their minds changed over
the beek-end when old King Winter
put in his grips and with cold weather
and vicious winter gales and heavy
falling snow, piles have been drifted
in the roads, and the big plows were
kept busy to clear it away, the storm
lasted even till Tuesday night when
many roads were blocked and the
plows had to open same. The wea-
ther was cold, anostly from the east,
much more snow is east of here and
on towards London, where the fall
was heavier.
