talking about it its always a risky proceeding to write about the weather m an editorial for by the time it gets into print the weather has usually changed however today is such a perfect earlyspring day we can t help effervesc ing a little bit the realization that spring is really here came very strongly to mind this afternoon when we looked up from the desk and our neverending bookkeeping to see a young girl carrying a huge bunch of the loveliest pussy willows she was looking in the herald window and standing there made a picture prettier than any cover girl ever could a few minutes later
