SPEAKING of climate, wasn't yea torday ii golden and glorious Coos Hay October doy7 And Isn't October a glorious month In this favored flection? All months nre golden hero, but some hold great er beauties than others and October is one. Scarfs of purple mist float from the distant hill tops and the water grows sluggish where the brook winds among the autumn grasses. Frosts have mellowed tho coloring of trees and weeds and meadows. Under tho fresh whiteness of the Btars the world lies waiting for the fogs and gray misty days of win ter. There nre warm days,-as yesterday, but not tho frank warmth of sum mer. Twilight comes quickly and the chill of nutumn follows faBt. A Boft dreaminess haunts tho valleys and tho sunshine holds a dull orange Bplendor. Something deep and thril ling stirs In the brisk wind's passing. It seems l'ke a ghost of some van ishing beauty, a tender regret for an inevitable ending. And yet there Is something about tho season that takes us wonderfully nenr to tho mysterious heart of things. There Is a kind or gay brav ado In tho brightness and warmth, In the bravo mnturlty of nature. Octo ber seems like a proud warrior meet ing death with a blithe smile of courage. Tho fullness, tho richness, tho splendor nothing quite stifles the swift, glad spirit of triumph of youth fulfilled, of dauntless unquest ioning gallantry. There arc bright banners and hold shadows and a Jest In tho fnco of tho grim destroyer, and gray days coming. Lacked Four Degres of Being Hottest Day of Season 1 On Coos Bay. Although yesterday was generally believed to be the hottest day of tho year, It lacked four degrees of reach ing the record established a month or so ago. It was only 85 at noon yesterday, according to tho official reading of U. 13. Ostllnd, local U. S. Weather Observer. Six weeks ago It was 80 and tho hottest day on Coos Hay since tho government established a weather bureau here was de grees about five years ago. Owing to the absence of wind yes terday tho heat seemed more In tense. There was not a semblance of a breeze during tho day and the Bun shone with extraordinary inten sity for Coos Uny. There were a largo number at tho beach and at Charleston Hay and many went up Coos Itlvor. However, tho hunt was unexpected and In con sequence, few had planned summer outings. However, tho autos came to tho rescue and nearly everyone who hnd a machine available hied away to tho beach. The tug Powers took a large party down to Charleston yesterday, C. A. Smith and frlonds going for tho day's outing. Along the Waterfront. I . The Steamer Hardy nrrlved Satur day from San Francisco with about 150 tons of miscellaneous freight.
