Lawrence Sterne wrote: "The Lord
tempers the wind to the shorn lamb. "
The sentiment is pious and pretty, but
some have been so irreverent as to sug-

rangement which has given us beauti-
full and late fall to correspond with and
compensate for the backward spring.
Probably no one has ever seen vegeta-
ton more luxuriant at this season of
the year.
