MARCH . . . and according to my staunch supporter in these matters, the Old Farmer's Almanac, there's going to be no lion-or-lamb nonsense about this month. A lion, and a grumpy one, says the OFA grimly, and adds such bits of cheer anent the up-coming weather as, "The days lengthen and the cold strengthens" — "Tornadoes in Midwest, and you keep on your furlined vest!" Oh well, if March comes, can April be far behind? I'm tempted to peek ahead to see what the OFA has to say about April, but that wouldn't be fair, I suppose. Final Almanac comment on this month: "Snow will stay well into March. The last three weeks of March will have nothing in them which can be spoken of favorably except they brought us three weeks nearer Spring." Stir up the fire, folks, and pass Grandma her shawl, and let's hurry the conversation on jto pleasanter things. How about getting out the seed catalogues, as an antidote? It's easier to convince yourself that your feet aren't freezing if your mind is filled with pictures of next summer's garden. r IJ Persnickety People — If your wife locks you out of the house in Massachusetts, you have to think up a refined and genteel way of getting her to relent.
