The Cover
Well, what do you know--here it is kite month again, going on throw-out-the-first-baseball month; life is looking up. All in favor of abolishing winter for a few years say aye. And a lot of good that will do you. But let's have no gloomy thoughts about anything while spring is springing--not even about that kite being stuck in the tree, for kites love to get struck in trees. and if those lads have to shinny up to unhitch it, breathes there a lad who loveth not to shinny?
John Clymer should have in his scene a father who has been teaching the boys how to fly a kite. When a father runs with a kite, he is pretty apt to step in a hold and take a majestic header, and it really is part of a boy's birthright to be able to recall, all his days, seeing a wise old adult do that.
