Sunday
morning
the
city
lay
festooned
with
white
under
a
bland
sun
that
broke
through
after
the
surprise
snowfall
the
heaviest
of
the
winter.
Temperatures
last
night
dropped
to
ten
degrees
above,
the
lowest
so
far
this
season.
Residential
streets
throughout
the
city
are
channelled
by
single
motor
tracks
and
driving
is
a
precarious
business
because
of
the
danger
of
getting
stuck

traffic
requires
drivers
to
pull
out
of
the
snow
ruts.
In
the
downtown
section,
the
grader
has
been

use
as

plow
and
is

the
snow
in

in
the
centre
of
Second

Avenues.
Greatest
damage
was
done
to
the
telephone
service.
Telephone
lines
were
transformd
into
thick,
white
ropes
by
snow
which
clung
to
them
and
later
froze.
Weight
of
the
snow
