WILL LIE ABOUT THE WEATHER
Something About Which Honesty
Seems to Cut Little Figure.

The thing most lied about In the
world is the weather. The weather
can't sue for libel, 80 1t is a safe thing
to lie about, although It does strike
back now and then.
Most people see no harm in stretch
ing meteorological truth; in fact they
look with mistrust on the person who
Insists upon handing the weather
square deal. II your neighbor says
his Thermometer registered 20 below,
and you tell him that yours only
showed ten below, he despises you
for person without Imagination. II
the summer, likewise, when your mer-
curry stands at SO In the shade and he
says his stands at SO, you are the
one on whom popular doubt will rest
Honesty is not the best policy when
the weather is under discussion, IN.
less you like to appear at disadvan-
tage.
There is large and nourishing class
of liars who everlastingly pretend to
Fnow what the weather is going to do,
setting themselves up as intimate
friends of the weather, when, as every
one knows, their acquaintance is bare
ly speaking one. Once In awhile a
sarn liar, meaning to lie, viii tell the
truth in spite of himself, and it Is thus
with the weather professors; they
cant miss the right guess always b :
cause there ere so few things for the
feather man to do.
Call on half a dozen of your weather
wise friends and ask them what it is
going to be tomorrow and they will

clude the building of stone or concrete
docks in place of the wooden struc
lures and shanties that now mark the
busiest part of town. 1t is proposed
in time to have a splendid driveway
and promenade, a scheme which, it is
believed, will lead to the extension Of
the city to the other side of the Pc
tomac There is to be built recrea
ton pier where the fish wharves now
are.
Potomac park itself was established
upon the flats, the elevation being
made with the mud and clay dredged
from the river when the channel was
deepened. This park is only the be
ginning, and similar recreation places
will be established along the river
front now available for commercial
purposes. Along the upper Potomac
too, it is proposed to make parks.
In the extensive river park system
contemplated provision will be made
for the benefit of Georgetown and
East Washington will have great
driveways and promenades. Here the
shores of the eastern branch of the
river are low-lying flats.
