This is the season when the man with q
baleful nature approaches and starts the
conversation by railing at the elements.
He assures you that 1t is the hottest day Of
the year. and If you demur drags You to
the nearest Street-COrner thermometer and
with ghoulish glee points out the mercury
at the hundred mark. He delights in call
ing your attention to the fact that the
asphalt is soft enough to show the marks
of wheels, and he rejoices when he can see
a sparrow sitting on the curb in the shade
with its beak wide opened. These are all
corroborative signs of excessive heat. He
seems to celebrate the fact of his own per-
sonal discomfort He descants upon the
liability to sunstroke. He tells how he
suffered last night trying to sleep. He
gazes malevolently at the sky and assures
you that there is no sign of rain and that
the heat will last for at least fortnight
longer. Then. perhaps. having tortured you
to the limit of your nerves endurance, he
invites you into the drug store and asks
you to partake Of one of the iced bever
ages against which he has just warned you.
Flee him. Eschew his companionship,
even his friendship If necessary. Choose
for your summer associate the person who
thinks of antipodal things, whose discourse
is of the cool mountain tops, of the sweet
hay fields, the wlnd-swept bays and rivers.
who tells of comfortable nights spent in
well-ordered houses in town, who even
chats unostentatiously of the struggle last
