New Northern
Lights Displays
Unpredictable
Many Willamette valley resi
dents have paused to survey the
majesty of the northern lights to
clear night skies recently, and
many are asking if the "lights"
will be on again this month.
Salem's weather station offers
no promises, pointing out that the
exact nature of the electrical dis
charges which charge the gases of
the upper air with a luminous
quality is unknown, and the nor
thern lights, therefore, remain un
predictable. The "lights" of last
weekend were visible as far south
in Oregon as Med ford, the wea
ther station said.
Weather officials likened the
northern lights to more familiar
neon tubing which lights many a
commercial sign. In them, the gas
(neon) also is made luminous by
electricity.
A llayesville resident impressed
by the northern lights wrote of
them: "They are magical in move
ment and coloration. They arc
like the beams of great spotlights
weaving across the sky In flaming
red. Sometimes the forest is bath
ed in light of eerie green silhouet
ting the trees. Fascinated you
watch the lights add wonder what
they will be like when they come
again."

Have you ever noticed bow much
a fine train is like a hotel on wheels?
On the Cascade, as on many other Southern
Pacific trains, your accommodations are
comparable to those in a fine hotel, You
have comfortable chairs to relax in, fine
food to choose from in two spacious dining
rooms, a comfortable lounging room, and
oft beds to sleep in at night You can walk
around as you please, enjoy aa much or as
little privacy as you wish, and you can sleep
as late as you like in air-conditioned com
fort. And, better than any hotel, you see the
country intimately at ground leveL
You can leave Portland on the Cascade
at 4:50 any evening, and arrive in San Fran
cisco before lunch the next morning.
Most people start counting their vacation
from the moment they arrive at their des
tination. When you ride the Cascade, how
ever, your vacation starts when the con
ductor say s "All aboard !"
