A little taste of real spring. How- 1 ever, we have the promise of the • weather man that it’s not to last long, so let’s don't grumble. It’s been so 1 nice for six weeks past that any man , who kicks very hard on a day or two , of this would certainly be a dyspeptic.

All have different ideas as to when they should go and how 1 and when they want to return, so that < it is impossible to arrange for a spec- l ial. t
