The Germans had cellars 'under | their huts, and many families spent they had lost a game. {part of their time during the winter months under ground! | German houses were not {well built. The chill winds of win- ter came through the log:.or woven | twigs. That is why Rhe family {went into the large holes beneath [ the huts. | There were no window-panes to let light in the cellars. The Germans probably got most of their light from torches. No doubt there were a few small holes which let in = fresh air. ) Fires were built In this lowly 'home. - The women spent their time spinning thread, weaving cloth or sowing. Sometimes they cooked. The men lay beside the fire, sleep ing a great deal of the "time. Whils awake, they talked to one another, drank beer, and gambled.

In their mind's eye many people see the drops or flakes forming great distances away, usual- Iy out om the ocean, and carried by the stormwind over sem and land un- til its time comes .to fall. This is far from being the fact. Rain or snow forms where it falls. For example, the cold nortneast storm wind arrives, bringing _ little moisture with it. The moisture 1s {already here, wafted up from the south in warm winds. Being warm and light the south wind rides above the cold air. Thus we have the northeast wind in the levels next the earth, with' the south wind flowing over it aloft. The warm moist arm rieing over the denser air hugging the ground is copled by expansion so far that its dewpoint is reached- Further cooling condenses some of its water vapor, and we have rain in summer and rain or snow in win- ter. In the great northeast storm or October 23rd to 24th, whioh pre- vailed the entire length of the At- lantic Coast, this condition was well tilustrated. For two days the north. east wind poured in below, while the vapor-impregnated southeast wind flowed over it, and a great rainfall resulted In southern New England varying from four to five inches. But on the second day the warm cur {rent began to dominate on the mid- idle. and north Atlantic coast and finally reached the ground displacing the cold air and locally sending the mercury up 10 degrees in a few min- utes. This warm wind contaimed about three times as much water |vapor as did the cold wind the aay before. There were a few clearing showers as a cool, dry southwest wind nosed under the muggy south- east wind. WALTON QUITS COURT. Tells Senate Committee He Despairs of Fair Trial. .
