10 quote Marx lWa1n: lnere IS a sumptuous variety about the New England weather that compels the strangers admiration-and regret, The weather is always doing some thing there; always attending strictly to business; always getting up new designs and trying them on people to see .how they will go.. There have counted one hundred and thirty-six different kinds of weather inside of twenty-fou1 hours" What makes New England weather so undependable? Or are you one of the thousands of people who are always talking about the weather and do nothing about it? Do you eye "mackerel sky" and run for your raincoat? Or do you rely on your rheumatism to warn you of pending dampness? Old wives tales these, but based on scientific fact.
