A Truthful Woman in Southern California

CHAPTER II
7/10

Rain is rainy and wet weather is wet, but the ground dries as soon as the pelting shower is over.

I do not find the raw, searching dampness of our Eastern seashore resorts.

Here we are said to have "dry fogs" and an ideal marine atmosphere, but it was too cold for comfort during the March rains for those not in robust health.
As I sit in the upper gallery and watch the throng issuing from the dining-room, I make a nice and unerring social distinction between the Toothpick Brigade who leave the table with the final mouthful semi-masticated, and those who have an air of finished contentment.
The orchestra is unusually good, giving choice selections admirably executed.

I have not decided whether music at meals is a blessing or otherwise.

If sad, it seems a mockery; if gay, an interruption.
