HOLIDAY WEATHER
“The wcathert* 1 ' —so stalo and unprofitable a topic during tho work-a-doy portion of the year—assumes a more important and ’more absorbing interest aa tho holidays draw near. Therefore it was that the forecast published on Thursday to the effect that a southerly blow was due, which would, however, probably pass before the crucial day, occasioned some misgivings in the mitfids of prospective pleasure-seekers. Since then conditions have remained unsettled, becoming, if anything, more ominous. The Government meteorologist* the Rev. D. C. Bates, in his forecast issued lost night giroa warning/ of an Approaching southerly gale. This, however, may not interfere with the recreations or Monday, as indications are for develop- ' merits about Monday evening, Jb will be recognised, however, that it is impossible to forecast so far ahead with any degree of -certainty» and it is probable that the meteorologist, knowing the special interest in the weather just now, takes 9 little risk in attempting to do so.
