3_97 March 1900 No. 538A Salix laevigata Bebb Osage Canyon Berkeley, May 1 1900. Today is Mayday! Miss Florence Mayhew remarked this morning how delightful a festival it was; there were no duties to perform, no church to go to, no gifts to make--a festival of pure pleasure. And it is celebrated among the trees--at least always in California. The groves of native trees--particularly of Valley Oaks--in little vales, are preferred places. There, beforehand, a dancing platform is erected and for the afternoon games are arranged. Some old Spanish feats wih horses were engrafted upon the Americano's California Mayday! |
