 First, may ', Ithank Molly Makebe- lieve for the nice birthday card.
 My birthday celebration began on Thursday, May 29th, when a small boy reighbor brought me 2 beautiful Baby Rambler rosebush full of buds and blossoms. Eis mother saying it was Johns own idea; he wanted to give me a birthday gift. Of course. this gave me great pleasure as well as a real surprise. Then kind friends who are fortunate in owning an auto, and very generous with it, came and took me to see the parade Friday morning and drove all through the cemetery after the graves had been decorated, that I might see the beautiful flowers, bringing me home about l o'clock, leaving me with the word that they would return in a short time and telling me to be ready and not to stop for dinner, but to take a lunch. and we would picnic by the
 road and go for long drive, which we did, having dinner and supper both, with uOl COllSe ucIHiOS poltlSSJJ
 three kinds of sandwiches, turnovers and pies, mince and cranberry. cake, | cookies, doughnuts, grape conserve and apples, which were very delicious, | taken with the pure outdoor air. l We reached home about g o'clock after a most delightful day. having seen the parade In Danielson. | 1 was very sorry not to see Twice l Twenty in her own home, but did not l expect to- as 1 knew she was to be away that day.

GETTING DULL AT NEW LONDON

Dear Social Corner Friends: I wish
 to thank the Bulletin Co. for yellow
 slip, with which I was greatly sur
 prised and much pleased to receive There don't seem to be much to write about now the war is over, and things here have quieted down; but
 when the fire alarm rang 6, three times, people began to wake up and take notice" that was for the riot the other night.
 Of course, everybody knew it wasn't
 a fire: but the companies responded just the same. People think it is not all over yet. The white sailors are
 making great threats. There doesn't seem to be much to river now-coal barges. and ferry boats are about all.
 The million dollar dock does not seem to be great success in a bus mess line There has not been craft of any description tied up at the end of the pier for several weeks. Moth ing doing" I should think the state would miss the sso,o00 the govern ment paid Ga year) for the use of it during the war.
 There is more traffic between the
 earth and the sky now. Airplapes are
 doing stunts here every day. The U. S. boats are going to and from the base but they are always on the Gro- ton side of the river and they go so swift there is nothing to be seen but the periscope and swirl of water I think Jules Verne done more than he knew, when he originated the motor sea boats in his novel of Twenty
 Thousand Leagues .ler the Sea. I
 think everybody ought to read it. I have read it twice. '
 l Aunt Mary-How are you? Have you recovered from your fall That
 was a bad one. I have embroidered that pillow cover you sent me and it i is very pretty. Come and, see it when you come down here. I hope you will come when we get some summer weather. Best wishes for all.

JUNE WAS NEAR
RECORD BREAKER
II Was the Hottest juno In Twenty
one Years and Far Under
Normal in tho Amount
Of Rainfall.

There have been but two years
since 1870 when the average temper
ature for the month of June WI.
higher than last month. Those ytals
were 1873 and 1884 There were
three other years when it was the
same as last MONTH the last one
being in 1898.
The mean temperature FOR the
month Of June was 76 degrees. That
is three and one-half degrees aboI G
the normal.
The coolest day was the 18th.
when the thermometer dropped down
to Sc, and the hottest was the 10th,
when the mercury climbed up to the
SO mark.
The total rainfall for the month
was 23S inches, which is two inches
less than normal. There has been
deficiency in the rainfall OF six
inches since the first of January.
The month was short on thunder
storms, too. There were but n'no
during the thirty day period, and all
of them were local in character.
1t rained on five different Gays.
The heaviest single rainfall was on
June 4, when the precipitation was
four-fifths of an inch.
There were but three days when
the sun did not shine at some time
during the day, and there were ten
days when 1t was entirely clear.
This is a record that is worthy Of
southern California. The percentage
of possible sunshine was seventy
nine percent.
