This Week’s Cover
- The robin is singing, “Turil-ee, turil-oo,” which in English means, “Hail, spring! Hail, little human birdlings! Hail, freshly turned loam, and a salute to you, freshly turned angel-worms!” Oh, to be a migratory bird, and just flit about the U.S.A. to wherever something’s going on to hail about. Winter among the orange blossoms, then northward with the camellias, and if you’re in the East, Washington, to see if Congress and the cherry trees are popping. In May, tag to painter John Clymer’s apple-orchard pageant; and set up a decent birdbath. Then if winter comes, why, let’s go, feathered friends—off to the races in Miami. Or would you rather be a human being? Well, O.K.; some people would.
