Easter was far from being satisfactory
as far as the weather was concerned to
those who had planned to appear in
choice array of new spring finery The
clouds were lowering all day and the
rain descended at regular intervals that
was disheartening However consider
ing this feature there was a fair attend
ance at the churches especially those
that gave special observance to the day
If the weather was not conducive to at
tendance at church it was certainly a
factor in the resurrection of nature and
vegetation has been given excellent en
couragement by the copious showers
and the farmers and gardeners are gen
erally happy No change developed up
to nearly noon today and the April
showers that awake the May floWers
continued to descend The wiseacres
who believe that if it rains on Easter it
will rain on each of the seven Sundays
following are predicting plonty of moist
ure this spring While the showers let
up somewhat toward noon tho sky is
still lowering and threatens rain The
mud on the streets is quite sloppy for
teaming but it has not formed to any
considerble depth Taken as a whole
the people are very well pleased with
the Easter weather as they can see be
hind it bountiful crops and rich har
vests
