PROMISED FOR U. s,
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, March 23-The out
look for what farmers call "a good
fruit year" is promising in most parts
of the United States, according to re-
ports made public today by the wealth
er bureau. Although fruit is not yet
out of danger from freezes in the
north half of the country the general
belief is that now spring is here the
American people can look forward to
fruit in abundance.
Some harm was done to fruit trees
in the western lake region by the
glaze storm of March 10, but with the
weather favorable early trees are com.
ing into bloom northward to North
Carolina and the central portions OF
Arkansas and Oklahoma, the reports
show. Citrus fruit trees continue in
splendid condition in Florida with a
heavy crop of bloom holding well. The
California orange crop is reported bet
ter than was expected.

Weather Alwaxa With Us

There are many who say that the
seasons are changing. but a glance
at weather calendar shows that
the Extraordinary weather" at mid
summer is very ordinary indeed II
we take long views of things. In
January, 1862, Pepys noted in his
diary that a fast day had been or
dered by Parliament TO pray for
more seasOnable weather, 1t having
hitherto been summer weather" In
June, I'LL, Swift was rendered ex-
ceedlngIy peevish by the heat. In
July, 1857, Walpole writes, Il have
made a tour Of my garden but once
these days before eight at night, and
then / thought | should have died

The Unconventional Professor.

One of the most extraordinary ex-
amples of unconventiOnality In dress
was Prof. f. w. Newman. He often
clothed himself in onion fashion
three coats. one over the other, and
the last one green. In winter wealth
er he would wear trousers edged with
six or eight inches Of black leather.
During that period of the year his
favorite outer garment was rug, with
hole in the middle for his head.
But even this, Professor Newman's
biOgrapher notes. was not such q
surprising vagary OF public costume as
that Of another professor. very
dreamy and absent-minded, who, be-
ing intent on making some abstruse
point clear to young lady pupil,
walked one evening round and round
a London square with her, talking
earnestly and attired In his top hat
and dressing gown. - Manchester

Early Church Utensils.

When our Puritan forefathers first
began to pass the plate for contribu-
lions in the meeting house IT was not
a plate they passed in most places
but a brass warming pan. Into this
the coins jingled cheerfully until some
one decided that II was too cheerful
and a long-handled wire corn pepper
was substituted. The artistically
carved and velvet-llned plates used in
many churches today are recent
adaptation. In the earliest colonial
days no collection was taken at all
and the salary of the parson was paid
in pork and pumpkins, potatoes and
peas, flour, dried apples and beans,
with occasional donation parties"
that provided further Injuries. When
church activities began to extend be-
yOnd the immediate parish 1t was nee
essary to collect coins, so the warm
ing pan and the corn pepper were both
used to gather them up quickly.
