“It is a harsh reality that some of the most important and respectable jobs which deserve high salaries might be better off with low salaries.

Instead the heat grew more intense and oppressive each day, singeing and stifling all living things with an invisible sheet of fire, which only the rain could put out. The drought had persisted for over a month.”
