Greeted by the first bright holiday in several weeks, the populace was spurred to get out and around vesterday particularly by the opening in many places of the spring and summer sports and outing season.

Golfers reported that the greens are somewhat slow and soft, due to continued rains, but all noted that the entire course was greener than it had been during several previous seasons of drouth which bloom. Picnics, which are getting off to an earlier than usual start, were held in both new and old additions of Fairview park and in Kelson park.
