Sun and rain alternating all day. Arose 9 A.M. To church & S.S. Dinner. Gert Anthony, Lew Larkin, Merlin here in P.M. Rained so did not go after may-flowers. Read etc. Supper. To Epworth League. Good meeting. Marian Benedict led. "How to Show Sympathy" Russell Norris and I walked around and talked. To bed 11:45 P.M.

Is Marian ever going to get together with Hanford?
Gathering mayflowers was apparently a pastime in those days. A song that was published in 1920, titled "April Showers Bring May Flowers," expressed the familiar sentiment that sunshine follows rain and so people should be grateful for showers because they bring flowers. But apparently one must wait until the rain stops before gathering the flowers that are produced.
Here is the link to a website that gives the lyrics, shows the sheet music, and plays the song for you: April Showers Bring May Flowers.
