IT FELT JUST LIKE SPRING.

One Boy Was Barefoot, Many Played
Marbles Yesterday.

With a temperature of 74 at 8 o'clock yesterday afternoon, the day took its place as the first burst of spring in Kansas City. The court house reporter was assigned to write a weather story and his observation included one boy walking barefoot on the court house lawn, many street urchins abandoning shinny clubs for marbles, quite few Italian grannies sitting in south doorsteps and the first game of horseshoes in Shelly park this year.

The forecast is for colder weather tomorrow.
