Unless 1t was raining, the umbrella used
to be the badge of middle age, the indica-
ton Of a serious mind, the token, one
might almost say. OF the Sabbath. But
in the last ten years the umbrella habit
has surreptitiousiy stolen on the ma
jority Of the inhabitants of these islands
and has become so much of a custom
that no one notices 1t. The holiday maker
carries a stick on his country walks. but
the young man about town no longer
yields q cane by day and a crutch to go
with his opera hat by night. He carries
instead the modern umbrella, a slender,
elegant implement, less sturdy than a
cane. Early in the present year the stick,
encouraged by the summer and the sun.
seemed to be on the verge Of a revival.
Gay young whangees, brilliant penangs,
steady old malaccas came out from hid
ing and, disporting themselves in the best
circles. challenged the long supremacy of
the umbrella. But with the autumn rains
they are going back to their shelter. and
a wet winter, we fear, will establish the
umbrella habit on firmer base than
ever.
