J- I He's tne man mat maue tuc ?wiu- i er forecasts for the almanacs that so many good people have been consult- j ing all these years. He was known j as "long distance weather forecaster." As the Richmond Virginian says, he was "nothing of the charlatan.'* He had evolved a clear theory of 1 cause and effect m reference to atmospheric and seismic disturbances. 1 Years of study and investigation led him to the conviction that his system w-.is right. It was his hope the governmeilfcwould take over his work and continue his experiments but it never did. What must have been sweet vindi- ' cation to him was his celebrated longranger maturing on Inauguration Day, March 4, 1909, when Mr. Taft became president. The night before the Government Weather Bureau, with all the scientific data it could amass, confidently predicted fair weather for the inaugural. In his almanac for 1909, printed in the latter part of 1908, and probably written months before, Irl Hicks predicted that the biggest snow-storm of the winter would hit Washington on Inauguration Day. That prophecy came true. A blizzard swooped down upon the national capital, cut off telegraph and telephone connections, and compelled most of the inaugural exercises to be held . within the capital. It was a famous 1, victory for Hicks. He based his forecast on planetary influence. For all we know, lie may I j have "been right.
