St. SuDithi,,'s Day Heralds 40 Days of Rainy Weather

You might say St. Swithin is making up for lost time as regards rainy summer seasons. Sunday, the 18th, commonly known as St. Swithin's day, it rained practically all it could in one day, which does not give much encouragement for sunny days ahead.
 The old legend has it that if it rains on St. Swithin's day it will rain for forty days. And the rain Sunday was not just the customary summer rain, passing showers and all that, it was 8 continual down. pour at regular intervals all day. Add to that little blows and a heavy atmosphere sug- gestive of dog days-that was Sunday, St. Swithin's day.
 Will it rain for forty days? The chances are it won't, but it could. Weather predictions for today were cloudy, cooler, showers.
