A bit to the right ot the fiats I see cattle romping, se'uf ning and hopping about; they too seem to be infected with this mischievous spring spirit. .... I Not so Very far from where 1 Bit two horses are eagerly pulling a plow through the black soli and from their bodies pour clouds of steammg perspiration. , ' f - ; A bronzed young lad marches sprightly behind the plow, giving ;vent to his feelings as he goes i along. .

' The alders to ,my right ' prevent me from seeelng Salem, but I can see the hills to the left of .the town rise boldly, silhouette-like against an azure sky. The atntosphere la so clear that I can plainly discern four Isolated ' IreesTeich some' dl tance from the other, on the very top of one of these hills, standing there like lonely sentinels, watch ing but for foreign invaders; the top line of the hills runs along the sky in long, irregular waves. Here a light colored farm house; there , an , orchard ; all abloom in a brilliant, snow white garb are caught in the sun's bright rays seemingly at 4east bringing the two objects much closer to us.. Quite a few small clusters of tali firs are sprinkled all over the hillside and I can even see the roads which 1 only - look like 1 tiny streaks from here run in various directions. ; . Further to the' south the coun try gets more f rugged,- the tree clusters now grow bigger and yet bigger until away to my left the whole hillside is covered with these straight, tall, proud- firs; and as I take a skimming glimpse over the tree tops they resemble an Immense blanket of velvet. In one place -1 can even see ' a stretch ot the Coast Range looking curiously over the hills., if" Along the5 toot of the hills close to the railroad track Mlfl1 creek lazily winds its way through a mass of scrub trees, deep-green or color that; look , from here as though some one. had dropped bits of moss roughly along the banks of the creek. , ; ' : A dark, puffing, short-winded monster now suddenly comes leap ing out of the scrub and eagerly keeps on creeping - southward, throwing its black shadow against nature's charming background of emerald-green it's a Shasta Lim ited : bonnck for 'Frisco !. Neither smoke nor : fog, two dreadful enemies of the erudite Mr. Chapman at which he pokes much, fun and wastes lots of clev er wit,-are here today to obscure the eye." It may be Just possible that he has looked at these two enemies through magnified spec tacles and with bitterness in his soul. ': ." ;; : i : , - ..J 5 However that may be, today the curtain is up! 1 -But it occurs to ny perverted mind that- the. fog and smoke we have here tocon tend with are as naught compar ed to tornados.Ube extreme heat in summer and the extreme cold In winter of the eastern states. And bo I - am forced to the. con- rinalon that after ! alL these two pyils are hot so awfully bad. V A lot. of- course, depends ;uppn the mental attitudei towards one3 en rironment. - ' l . When In ,late summer or win ter the curtain drops -for. some time on our beautltuviewwell, Isn't, It but natural tfcat- we ap preciate the view so:muchmore when It. comes back,, and does not thn the charm and beauty of the picture strike home' with renewed D WILLAMETTE VALLElf in Daily Statesman Drug garden.

One soon gets tired of too much sun, but as the dark and dreary winter months come' to a close we look with eagerness and passionate longing for the first glimpse of the' warm spring sun and welcome her as a mother welcomes' her long lost child. . y Being an ex-rover of the seven seas, I have stayed in a- number bf climates and have also had am ple opportunity of seeing many of the most beautiful , spots on the old planet's, shell, and I can say without in any way hurting my conscience that Nature as far j as scenery is concerned has indeed been very kind to Oregon, and to the Willamette valley, In particu lar; also it has as. good -a climate all the year around as a reasoji able person may well find any place. - But some humans are' really strange creatures for they always want something they haven't got. This Is especially the case with a species we shall call, for want, of a better . name, the : "climate hounds." They areVoreyer prais ing this and that perfect climate. f'Thats where 1 ought to-be," is their favorite saying; but "they ire' never 'there." i l YV f The ideal climate !s .as elusive as the striving for ? perfection, which, like tomorrow, ' IslilJiever here and always coming!
