In Society

This delightful weather has turned
January into June. Its fooled every
thing and everybody. Fur coats are
packed away in cedar chests. Spring
hats are worn with the utmost brazeness.
On. puts on ones white skirt and VEN
lures forth without the slightest mis-
giving of a shower or q norther. There
have been numerous picnics, and roses
are blooming in the garden along with
the Christmas plants. The dinky bird
sings from the yum yum tree and We
review our copies of Omar Khayyam,
and Indian Love Lyrics, which proves
that the weather has deceived us and
we think spring is in our midst.
OF course Dame Nature will play a
practical joke on us before long, and
there will be a snow storm or some
thing while we are sporting our fav-
orite organdie frOck. But it is lovely
while it lasts. The moon hangs like
a golden bowl in the sky, aud nothing,
save the scent of honeysuckle is lack
ing. We certainly don't need
hOneysuckles, because the perfume of
orange blossoms is heavy in the air.
Yes, the weather has turned January
into June at least it has for a great
many. Wedding bells vie with the ring
ing in of the new year. This month

nounced, and a number of interesting
