Dea Oasewaarde,

Greetings from Che land of the Palms We have ony two seasons down in the S o u % r n part of India, namely: " h o t and hotter." So December, January and February would be considered " h o t " and the other months "hotte'r".

T h e temperature at this time of year is about 75° in the shade. The medium or averhge temperature is 9jj 0 and the hottest is 105°: Tindiva nam is twenty miles f r o m the sea coast so we do get the benefit of a little tea breeze in the evenings most of the year. We have a fine sleeping place all screened in, on the roof so our nights are quite comfortable, Each year two Monsoons are expected. The N. E. Monsoon is the heavy and long one. which comes in the last of October, November, and December. I t is then that the tanks. or lakes and ponds are filled to over-
