SUMMER OPTIMISM

Summer is really an optimistic sea
son. Few people are able to see through
the glaring heat the Chilly days TO fol-
low. Every Abbeville citizen knows
that there will be a long period when
dAerc will be no harvest. But with
such plentifulness abuot us, it is hard
to believe there will ever be lessened
supply of anything, The bidrs out in
the field, and the beast, are the same
way, with few exceptions. They are not
looking ahead to the winter.
Perhaps it is just as well, Maybe it
would not be god thing IL we worried
all summer about the cold that Is GER
tain to come upon US this winter. But
it is certainly not well to be too OPP.
timistic at any time-not to the point
of sitting down and trusting to tomor.
row to bring US tomorrow s supplies.
The summer resorts prosper upon this
summer optimism, whether they know
il or not. Otherwise some of these peo-
pie who are spending more than they
ought to upon their vacations, would
be thinking of tle winters coal supply,
or the heavy clothing they are going
to have to buy, Vacations are all right,
We complain not at any mans taking
a eriod off and enjoying himself while
beneftting his health But the fact
remains that many persons suffer
though the winter because of tleir ex
travagances during the summer season.

payers decide a critical municipal
question. BY all means put up 10
