Buds Ready to Burst and Sap

Miss Bertha Sargent Picks Blossoms
At Congregational Parsonage

1t may be that the daylight saving
plan last year has knocked the wealth
err mans seasons into cooked hat,
or it may be that all unwittingly the
gulf stream has started to flow up
the Quinebaug river, but in any event
something somewhere has slipped
cog and the weather ordinarily for
this time of year is all wrong, Gerald
inc, all wrong. Bugs are growing fat,
the snow shovel is rusting on the back
porch, and the heater isn't sending
out its usual grooming calls for more
coal
Olditimers are wagging their heads
ominously and admonishing every
body to wait and see" Pessimists
persist in dolling up in muffiers and
declaring that the weather is the
"paeumony" kind and that it's just
what the Flu" germ and the grip
germ and the germs of all the other
thousand ills delight in and that
we're all going to be twanging gold
en- strings in short while if it does
1T change.
But despite it all silk stockings
continue to have good sale and see
more collars havent gone out of
style even for the military chokers,
and nobody seems to care hang
whether Feb. means freeze everybody
or not.

who is visiting in Putnam, undoubted-
~ has the record for picking the ear
lest flowers. Tuesday morning she
visited the Congregational parsonage
where she formerly lived, and IN look
ing over the old-fashioned garden her
family had planted there, she discov-
cred the blossoms holding up their
heads to the warm sunshine. They
were snowdrops-not the kind that
come from the clouds, for those have
been few this year, but these were
small lilies and were perfectly form
ed and in excellent bloom. She also
reported that the crocuses in the gar
den are springing up and bid fair to
blossom shortly.
Pussy-willows have been found in
bloom for several weeks, and reports
are circulated that rose bushes and
shrubbery are filling to such an ex-
tent that the buds are nearly ready to
burst and form leaves. Maple trees
have been dripping sap and robins
have been heard merrily chirping In
the woods, although it is known that
many of these bird friends stay north
all winter.
It's all SUCH a change from a year
ago that one is almost inclined to be-
lieve the pessimists, but it's such
relief in a way even though the ice
isn't making very thick and will prob
ably be high next summer. By and
large. ice will probably be high any
way-it always is-and then there's
the happy thought that perhaps the
summer will be cool in keeping with
the contrast of the present season.
