By CARL HALL It was the active silence of the valley that we missed most qf all. After spending days along the eroding, ever-receding shoreline of the ocean drumming under its sac rificial beaches, it comes as a balm to breathe in the uncompet itive stillness of this loved sta tionary sea of grass and wood. It ecmes as a trieadly surprise, as always, since we remember ether returns, new strangely mele 41ms Is Ike valley la early sum mer. Uallke the sea, the valley Is ejalel at Its warkt eae never dears Mil being laadly made, af seed raising the ham sf It's thunder ever a snarling earresl; .eae sever hear the keraals fattening sa the wheat stalks like gulls la a kelp bed. r the frail Jalees passing against the spheres sf their sus pended glade like floats against a tide. It is the soft sounds, heard and nheard, that give the valley its silence, for In being so distinc tively different in timbre n d rhythm they isolate themselves by contrast and in this comparison become as psalms, benedictions spaced in the jacged crevices of the dsys. Always we heard the land, and this is important to our sense of belonging: we feel that it U listening as well. By comparison the resounding, ever insinuating ocean with its white tracery of rolling terracing sound does somethins to the hear ing of and on the land, and be cause of this, something to our sense of security. The land seems to become numb, and man, the constantly listening organ, as a defensive measure, drowns t h e sea sound in the activities of a day or the security of the house bound nights. The coast is in con stant siege and never so much as at night. The sea is always seeking to pierce her perimeter, either by the all-devouring force of her wet abrasives or by her encrustations ol fog and tail pulverizing rock, gulping up land, peeling paint, corroding metal or rotting timbers she must invade, overcome and, finally, demolish into dust all that he meets.

She, this beautiful valley, ran be slapped, detained, directed and. anlike the en, she accepts, takes easily te the slate af thlags. The sea accepts nothing, least af all any earthly power.

The valley calls Ml la the luring response, the sea t self preservation. Security "from" the ocean is the prime condition of the tem porary truce between land and water. One must have something ' to hold on to, either in the mind or the house and yard. Wind breaks, spiritual as well as physi cal am reauired In retain sense and sanity. The sound of the ! ocean, the unrontainahle strife : meeting (he shallow ledges of It rib,, surge from within lis spare frustrations. The valley is easi ness of surface, ample in its di mension with neither the hunger nor the spite that rides the con slant sound track of. the sea. It is strange that when near the ocean one ran dream of the val ley, farm and grassy fields; and pjJWiW ALL PERFECTssJ5P5?"
