"Nice day," you say to a stran ger, and he agrees with you. What else is there for him to do? Any one ean see that It is a nice day. Ton have picked out a self-evident fact which needs no further proof. At a bit of Information It is ridiculously absurd. Of course your object wa not to inform the other person, but simply to make conversation and to show a friend ly attitude. We talk about the weather be cause it is. the safest topic ot con versation. It you approach a stranger with the jubilant declar ation: "Isn't it fortunate that we have a Republican president?" you may make a hit; you may get hit. Tou will fare no better by opening up on a religious top ic or any other where there is the slightest chance for a difference of opinion. The "weather leaves no room . for prejudice or personal opinion. ; The weather Is a safe bet be cause you are. not responsible tor it, The person whom you greet with .f'Nice day,'! may not want ft nice on. this particular occasion. Perhaps he predicted bad weather and placed a bet on his calcula tions. But he can't be offended at you because he knows you are in no way responsible. The weather Is a handy topic among friends as well as among strangers. If the meeting is brief, the weather Is about as good as any for a "greeting which he can straightway forget and not have to brood over your meaning and hidden motives. The weather also serves as a legitimate tople of conversation In its own right. To greet another person with "Fine day. and have his reply, "Tee, very fine," adds something to your enjoyment, es pecially it it is theyt good day in many bad ones.S-enJoy shar ing a good thing' with another when it costs us nothing and we have more of it by giving part away. Similarlyit releases some of the ontotional depression to share a bad day. Whether the day is fair or foul, there is an emotion al release in talking about it. The weather is a very useful tople in the emotional and social give-and-take of daily life. It is a shock absorber. We have the pleasure of conversation without the risk of being contradicted. We talk about the weather be cause we ean talk without saying anything: Tomorrow Why we look Around to See If Anyone Saw Us Fall.
