Dark and snow or sleet at intervals.

Started to walk downtown from school, but it started to hail like blazes so I got on a car and before I was downtown it had stopped again. I went into the new 20 story 1st Nat, Soo bldg. Not done yet but in use. Took elevator to top floor, saw more stairs ascending upward, so I went up and opened a door and was on the roof. Saw more stairs mounting upward to a platform from which I could see all over. Only my vision was restricted by the fog. The 12 story bldgs looked small from my lofty point of observation. I went to the Lyric [Theatre] and then home and wrote some chicken material down from Country Gent.
