The first real breath of spring made itself apparent in Wellington yesterday, warm air and brilliant sunshine giving the day an aspect which has been absent for several months, j'i'be weather has promised us great things for several weeks, and on occasions the evidences of an early summer have been thrust upon us only to be withdrawn in a most peremptory manner. Something in the nature of a revelation has occurred in Wellington's climate over the last two years, for, with the passing of a wonderful summer, we are now emerging from an equally unusual winter. Yesterday, however, was deiinite in its appeal, and bo great was ■ the attraction that white frocks and short sleeves endeavoured to belie the fact that we are still in our late winter months. Summers invariably go, and summers sometimes come, but it, is to be hoped that the approaching season will be definite in its climatic tem-' nerament.
