The Apex of the Year.
For just six mbnths now we have
been climbing the long slope of the
seasons, It was on December 21 that
we set out from the gloomy plain of
the winter solstice, that land of long
nights and short clays and the "low -
circling sun," Ever since then the
path has led upward. By intervals• so
slight that we have" hardly been able
to detect them it has taken us, higher
and higher; past the halfway house of
the vernal equinox, with its reminis-
cent flavor of the classics and its ac-
tual murmur and babble of unfettered
brooks; past the unspeakable laver:-
ness of spring, with its ever -lengthen- F
ing days, until now at last we have
reached the summit and stand for our
little =Meat at the very peak and
climax of the year.

So soon, and summer only just begun!
Indeed, the astronomers or meteor- •
ologists, or whoever it is that does for
the year what. Atropos does for life,
are always telling us that summer
does not begin until now. Of co' se
we know better than that. We kt
that it began three weeks ago, but
