Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Rita Coventry Among New Yorkers it is recognized that the changing seasons do not first announce themselves from almanacs, nor in precocious items upon menus, nor yet among the growing things of Riverside Drive and Central Park. The first signs make themselves apparent on the treeless, grassless reaches of that hard-paved highway extending from the Waldorf to the Plaza. And to-day, though it was but mid February according to the calendar, the dense and animated crowds upon Fifth Avenue, the brightening costumes worn by women and exhibited in windows, and a bursting golden something in the air proclaimed the spring. To Richard Parrish the miracle was the more wonderful because he had not seen it come to pass. It had been revealed to him, a thing accomplished, on his return this morning from a brief trip to Chicago. Only a week ago he had left New York plunged in its miserable winter: slush swimming in the streets and a solution of slush swimming in the heavy atmosphere above them, mixed with the gaseous breath of coughing motor cars.
